Report: Say what? Sylvester Stallone is set to play Rocky one more time??? Seems like it’s for real!!!!

Leave a comment

Sly maybe done with the Rocky series but he never said anything about retiring the character for good! There’s a spinoff movie coming from the Rocky franchise. A film called, “Creed”, which will focus on the life of Apollo Creed’s grandson. MGM studios is setting Ryan Coogler to direct and Michael B. Jordan to play the grandson of Apollo. Sylvester Stallone is set to reprise his role as Rocky Balboa for the 7th time.

The story will be about Appolo’s grandson wanting to become a boxing champion much like his grandfather, Appolo, but he doesn’t have to and his family doesn’t want him to. So he goes for Rocky Balboa who is a retired boxer and becomes a mentor for Apollo’s grandson (Rocky will be his possible trainer too, I bet?).

Read the full story, here.

MGM studios must of gotten Sly’s written permission to make this movie since Sly fully owns the rights to the Rocky franchise. So Sly himself must be all for this film! I’m all for Sly playing Rocky one more time. He deserves another shot since, “Rocky Balboa”, the last Rocky film was kind of a disappointment and a let-down. “Rocky Balboa” was a good movie, don’t get me wrong but could have been a better film.

Sly has been talking about bringing Rambo back to the big screen for one last time!

I’m definitely looking forward to the “Creed” film and looking forward to seeing what they’re gonna do with it! I wonder if they’ll bring back Burt Young to play Paullie again as well?

Why I can’t stand liberal people and find them annoying as hell…

Leave a comment

Ya know… I understand your political beliefs and views. I understand that everyone can have a different way of looking at things in the political world. I can think of a few different reasons of why I think liberal people are awful. It’s fine if they wanna believe in equal opportunity and human rights stuff but reason no. 1 that makes liberals annoying people is that they can get all defensive when they’re disagreed with by the right-wingers. When other conservatives call them out on stuff — those liberals will defend their points. They’ll keep sticking to their opinion and will act like everything they say is right. Reason No. 2, is that they are a bunch of hypocrites as well.

There are too many liberals out there and you can absolutely blame it all on Obama. Obama promotes liberalism. That’s a huge part of why they are all out there. He campaigns for it. He’s trying to help make the left take over America. Right-wingers are being disrespected by the liberals.

In my opinion, I think Conservatives are better for a lot of reasons. I joined the republican/conservative thing for a pretty good reason too. For one, I care about personal responsibility and I also care about the country that we live on and all that stuff. Conservatives are better ’cause we care more about the Constitution than the liberals do. We care more about putting an end to terrorism and violence. We care about putting an end to violence in other countries as well. We care about fixing our broken governments. We’re not afraid to call out the lies of the government and call out their bullshit. We conservative people care more about country first. We care for our fellow Americans getting killed over seas such as Benghazi and other tragedies.

All the liberals care about is equal opportunity and human rights stuff.

This is why people attack me for my political views. I have a strong conservative view of things. If the liberals are all for something, I’m probably gonna be against it: marriage equality, abortion rights, gun control, etc.

It’s real sad that liberals look at conservatives as bad people.

I honestly believe that conservatives can take over America again. That’s why we need a conservative president in the White House so we can promote conservatism more. Conservatism deserves more respect. I like conservatism. It’s more honest and real to me. Why liberalism is nothing more than a fantasy world. Liberals really do get aggressive in political debates. All us conservatives do is express our opinions and views — yet we get knocked by those liberals. Probably because the liberals don’t like us having the exact opposite views as them.

I have no shame or guilt being conservative. I really do believe in it. I can understand that “conservatism” can sometimes be controversial ’cause we don’t believe in gay marriage and gun control. Just to correct you on one thing though, that Ronald Reagan certainly didn’t start the “conservatism” movement. He only helped popularized it. The conservatism thing goes way back even before he was president. He just helped make it become more mainstream. “Conservatism” is losing it’s popularity again.

I have a few other people in my facebook who are “conservatives”, and they absolutely love everything I post. It’s only those liberal people who find my political views offensive. I just have a strong conservative belief. That’s why my political views are different than everything. I believe everything conservative. I just don’t like the liberal part of politics. That’s just me, ya know?

That’s why I respected George W. Bush. He was a better president than Obama for sure. Yeah, Bush did some bad things and committed some crimes but not as bad as Obama. Obama makes Bush look too good, anyway.

Why I continued the Trayvon discussions…

7 Comments

I was gonna give up the Trayvon discussions but up until the point where George saved a family from an overturned truck… I just had to post that story just so that I can show people that George is not the monster that the media makes him out to be. I also wanted to show a few useful facebook memes to bring up a point about a few things. I may have given up the Trayvon discussion in facebook but I think I will continue it here. I feel that this topic should not be ignored and I need to voice my feelings about this. I need to let my voice heard.

It’s interesting how people react to this story

In facebook, I’ve gotten too many complaints of people saying that I shouldn’t say stuff like, “You would do the same thing if you were in this situation”. Well, it’s true if you think about it, right? If some punk kid or even a full grown adult was in your face and all of a sudden this person starts kicking your ass… what else are you going to do? You have to kill that person in order to survive; otherwise, you would be dead if you don’t do anything. You can’t just let this criminal kill ya. It’s gonna make him win and let him go free. Most importantly… you have too many family & friends who love and care for you. You have a whole life ahead of you… you can’t just let the criminal kill you. When people gets offended when I say things like, “You would do the same thing if you were in this situation”… that means people are afraid to admit that they would do the same thing. They know I’m telling the truth and they hate hearing it.

If you had some guy slamming your head against the sidewalk, beating you with a baseball bat or smashing your head against glass or something drastic as that… there is no other way to escape from that stuff. The only way to escape from the brutal beating alive is to kill your opponent. Whatever it takes with a gun, knife or whatever weapon you could find. If you’re good at fighting yourself… you can even kill your opponent with your bare hands if necessary. Do whatever it takes to survive. There’s nothing wrong with it. It’s completely okay.

These things happen all the time in America. It’s been happening for years. People kill other people for self defense. They usually don’t get arrested but even if they do get arrested — they are usually acquitted in trial.

There are also too many people who still see that Trayvon was a sweet innocent little boy and they think he was never a thug. That’s what the media and Trayvon’s family wanted you to believe. Have you ever noticed that Trayvon’s family never released that much photos to the media publicly? The only photos they released of him were ones of him that were younger than 17… back in the days when he did look innocent and harmless. They didn’t release any pictures of him wearing gangsta kind of clothing or anything like that.

Yes, there is a race war going on. In the media and out on the streets in various cities in the USA with different protests/riots going on. Obama just made the topic of race going even more with his last speech about Trayvon. His speech was pretty racist toward the white people.

People just hate hearing the truth that Trayvon started it all. That’s why people get upset and that’s why they go after people who side with G.Z.

Kids aren’t always good kids. They can be a bunch of punks and they can be little brats. I know — I’ve dealt with them myself when I was in school — they can be pretty violent. I’ve gotten bullied quite often and even almost gotten into fights with them myself. Kids aren’t always angels and people need to stop thinking they are. If you want kids to be “good” kids… they can be… it requires good parenting skills if you want them to behave as they get older.

After all the gun shootings and other violence over the years from Gabby Giffords, the Aurora movie theater shootings, the Boston Bombings, etc. What was the age range of the suspects of those crimes? Yes, that’s right… they were young kids, go figure. You have every good fucking reason to kill these violent little pricks. So don’t sit there and tell me that these kids don’t deserve to die.

If George didn’t kill Trayvon Martin and let him live… think how many more criminals acts he could have done that day. Trayvon could have killed someone or start a house on fire or something of that sort. Remember, kids aren’t always little angels. If you don’t want your kid to turn out that way, you need to be a good father and mother if you don’t want them to grow up to be a violent criminal.

If your life was being threatened by some kid… yep, they deserved to be killed. When there is nothing else you can do… there is no other choice and I’m sticking with it.

Ultimate Warrior confirms reconciling with Vince McMahon and is now back in the WWE Universe….

2 Comments

Ultimate Warrior wrote today on twitter to Vince McMahon:

@VinceMcMahon Vince, thank you for your personal welcome back to the WWE Universe. It is noted and appreciated. All the Warriors of Parts Unknown take pride in being one of the original galaxies of the Universe you created. Not one of my days has passed without a flashback to my time in the business and my relationship with you. After 17 years of battling one another, perhaps the stars have finally aligned and Destiny is prepared to tell one of Sports Entertainment’s greatest stories: how two of the industry’s most determined, colorful, intense and explosive personalities brought to life a persona that made such an inspiring impression that it still captures the hearts and minds of fans all over the world, even all these years later. I am proud Ultimate Warrior is an iconic, immortal spirit in the Universe you created. I know, Vince McMahon, you are proud, too. The inhabitants of your WWE Universe believe your personal welcome is an invitation of sorts. If so, consider this my RSVP with one condition. Wisdom takes a seat at the table with us when we meet, but we each also leave unburied a slight edge of the hatchet we’ve carried over the years. that other gutless and heartless God-fearing men urge us to lay to rest forever. Face it, neither one of us were ever any good at being bored or boring others. So coming prepared to kill one another makes for a interesting backup plan. Always Believe, Warrior

As you can see, Vince and Warrior have been feuding in public for years. Over the years Warrior has kept away from WWE and he wouldn’t even let the WWE induct him into the Hall of Fame. Now that Warrior buried the hatchet with Vince McMahon officially… I think a Hall of Fame induction is very possible now.

Also a short WWE return is possible since Warrior revealed that he is back in the “WWE Universe”. He didn’t say anything about returning to WWE television on RAW but I think they’re just trying to keep it a surprise.

I think we will see Warrior back on WWE TV. Not sure if he’s coming back full time, part time, a one off or what but we’ll wait and see. He’s probably just coming back for one final match against Vince as a way to finish off that feud… in a kayfabe kind of way. Do you know what, “kayfabe” is right? It is a wrestling term meaning that it is the portrayal of events in wrestling that are actually “real”.

Some off TV feuds have been finished on WWE television before so it’s nothing new. Kayfabe already happened with Vince and Bret the “Hitman” Hart. Vince and Bret have feuded for years while Bret stayed retired… now they are reconciled… Bret makes occasional appearances on RAW. They finished their Montreal “screwjob” angle on TV. Mick Foley and Ric Flair had an off TV feud for a while and they were gonna finish on TV but things got a little different. Jerry Lawler’s heart attack scare was kayfabe. Sometimes things you see on TV can be real which can be called, “kayfabe”. The McMahon steroid trial from years back and the Owen Hart death, all kayfabe.

I can see them doing a lot of kayfabe stuff with Vince vs. Warrior. A Vince vs. Warrior feud on TV would be entertaining. I’m gonna have to start watching WWE again to watch out for Warrior’s return. Warrior won’t return to WWE this soon… they want to make things surprising and unpredictable so Warrior can appear out of no where.

Glad to finally see Vince put his ego aside. He did a great thing for a change. Vince can be a cool guy after all!

Hmmmmm… where’s the outrage in this, hey???

Stealing this useful facebook meme for this blog! Roderick Scott was part of a Neighborhood Watch. This incident happened in New York State in a small town called, Greece. Shot a kid out of self defense after catching him doing criminal acts. There is no Stand Your Ground law in New York either and he was found not guilty anyway.

Where is the outrage in this? Do you see the white community being angry… starting riots and protesting justice for Christopher? I’m willing to bet the blacks will hail Roderick a hero for this too.

These things happen all the time.

Read the full story, here.

This case very similar to the Martin/Zimmerman story but slightly different.

I don’t hate Roderick for what he did, though. What he did was very heroic too, and I applaud anybody who defend their own lives from dangerous people no matter the age.

Local bands who try to make themselves look like national bands in social networking sites…

Leave a comment

I completely understand that bands need to promote themselves to get themselves out there. All that is fine and cool. However, when marketing yourself… you don’t need to be all fancy and special looking, ya know? You don’t need professional band photos. You don’t need to go buying facebook likes or to try to get as many people to join your pages as possible. You don’t need to talk in the third person when marketing yourself. You don’t need a long list of tour listings. You don’t need to be selling merch or try to get people to pay for your live video streaming performances. You don’t need to enter every contest and try to get your fans to vote for you. You don’t need all that to make yourself look good.

As you can see, I never promoted myself that way. Whenever I get a show or written a new song, I’ll just put it out there and see what happens. That’s all you really need to do. I don’t promote myself for self-flattery like so many bands seems to do. I don’t care to be all special when promoting. I know I’m just a local musician and don’t take myself so seriously.

I don’t do music for fame or popularity. I play for myself pretty much, and I also play for those few out there who really do support my music.

I use social networking sites to get honest feedback on my songs. I never force people to pay to listen to them ’cause I always believed that music should be listened to for free. Musicians in social networking sites can be arrogant and selfish animals. When will music be about the fans and not about them? I can tell that musicians can be arrogant and selfish. I try to support other bands as much as I can and don’t seem to get much support in return from some of them.  That’s why it’s sometimes good to only support yourself in music and not worry about supporting other bands.

Bands try to make themselves look like famous people these days. I totally blame that on media and reality TV shows (like American Idol, America’s Got Talent, The Voice, etc.). Bands & musicians think they’re gonna get national fame by pretending to be famous when they’re not. That’s why they do what they do. They think their marketing ways is gonna get them a record contract to either an indie label or major. In my opinion, this kind of marketing is not gonna make you famous. You get famous if you don’t take yourself seriously and just play the music. The fans don’t realize how egotistical these bands are being but sure enough… they’re gonna eat up everything they do and everything they post.

With that being said, the world of social networking in music is pretty whacked.

I would like a lot more people to like my music and to support it sure but I’m not going to shove my music in everyone’s faces. I like to let the music speak on it’s own. If people like it, great. If they hate it, that’s great too. That’s the way to do things, in my opinion. I don’t care to have a lot of fans. It’ll be awesome to have a large following but I’m not worried about it. I just play ’cause it’s what I do and what I love.

To be honest, I can’t stand those bands who are desperate for fame and popularity. I give the most respect to bands who don’t care about fame & popularity — they just want to play and rock out. If fame and popularity is what you do this for then you’re doing it for all the wrong reasons. Who needs fame? Who needs to get signed and make it in the industry? The music industry is a freakin’ joke, anyways.

Scooby announces he’s done with his fitness instruction…

Scooby, a popular online fitness guru… announced that he’s all done with his Scooby Fitness stuff. He’s shutting down everything and moving on.

Well, that’s what you get when you put yourself out there for the whole world to see. You want to be a controversial person… people will get you for it. You just gotta learn how to handle the heat.

I’ll admit that I followed Scooby over the years and learned some stuff from him. I learned some of his workouts and nutrition advice, although, I too disagree with a lot of bullshit he says. Honestly, I’m not broken hearted of him leaving. I’d say good riddance.

More thoughts on the “Batman/Superman” team up movie…

1 Comment

While it’s great news that “Batman & Superman” are finally teaming up together for a live-action film… I really think they should get rid of the black rubber suit on Batman. I think the Dark Knight thing is kind of old and it would be great if they give Batman a new style. New suit, new look, new everything. If they did that with Superman, I would think they would do the same with Batman. Since Christopher Nolan would still be the mentor/producer of the “Batman/Superman” film, I would think Chris would let Zack have Batman however he wants the character to be. Over the years, Batman had different styles of suits and in different colors. I think it would be pretty cool if they go back to old-school with Batman… go back to the blue and black. They gave Superman the old-school look for “Man of Steel”, why not do the same with the Batman? Zack’s version of the batsuit will indeed be a little different than Nolan’s take on it. Zack got rid of the red trunks on Superman, think how Zack would change the batsuit? I’m sure Zack would get a lot of people questioning the batsuit just like he got a lot of people wondering about the new Superman suit.

The “Batman & Superman” movie will probably be action packed and intense like “Man of Steel” was. Of course, it’ll probably have impressive visual effects and all that stuff. Who will the leading villain be? Lex? The Joker? Both?

As for the actor to play the new Batman, I’m not really sure yet but like I said before, Joseph Gordon-Levitt would be the most likely choice ’cause of the “Dark Knight: Rises” ending.

It’s great news this is happening finally. I’m sure Hollywood already tried to get a Batman/Superman movie going years ago but failed. It’s gonna be a hard movie to pull off and Zack would be the only guy who can do it right. Batman/Superman had tons of comics together and animated movies. They don’t have a live action movie yet and the wait will be over soon. It will be a box office smash, for sure.

My question is, will Michael Caine still play Aflred? Gary Oldman for Commissioner Gordon? I don’t know if those guys will come back without Christian Bale but we’ll wait and see.

It’s gonna be interesting to see what they’re gonna title it too.

Cool Video: Michael C. Hall gives emotional goodbye to Dexter fans at SDCC…

Leave a comment

This video even brought tears to my eyes a little bit. Michael C. Hall, the main star of the hit TV show, “Dexter”, gives an emotional goodbye speech toward the end of the “Dexter” panel at SDCC. As Michael speaks, you can see the other cast watching him too and they look like they’re all choked up. As Michael ends his speech, the large crowd gives the Dexter cast a standing ovation.

Ya know, “Dexter”, is a pretty amazing show. It’s one of my favorite shows on TV. I don’t watch a lot of TV anymore but “Dexter” is one of those few shows that I love. Season 8 is pretty amazing so far. If you don’t have Showtime, I would recommend you watch this show. The stories can be pretty intense. Out of all the seasons of “Dexter”, I still think Season 4 is the best.

Like most Dexter fans, I too can’t believe this show is ending. Here’s hoping for a big screen movie possibility if Dexter doesn’t get killed off anyway.
