The WWE will continue to over hype John Cena to death until he decides to retire!!!

1 Comment

I know how much all of us are getting fed up with WWE over hyping John Cena so much, as if he was the next Hulk Hogan, but the WWE is not going to stop. They will keep giving him so much screen time. Hogging all the main events, and getting all the Wrestlemania spotlights, you get the deal. This is why the WWE will never bring back the Attitude Era. I know us longtime fans want the Attitude Era back, but the popularity of John Cena, the PG era will be around for a long time. Here’s why…

…simply put, John Cena is a powerhouse when it comes to helping marketing the WWE. The Make-A-Wish-Foundation, Fruity Pebbles, etc. Things like that. Even though the ratings are really bad for the PG era, the PG rating stays ’cause of Cena. Cena is only popular with women and children. Not too many men like Cena too much, as he gets a lot of boos at the live shows from the male fans and Cena has his share of haters online.

This is part of why I almost gave up watching WWE several times ’cause like most everyone, I too am sick of Cena. Cena is also never gonna turn heel even though a lot of us would want him to. Even though, I’m not much of a Cena fan, I want to see him turn heel ’cause that would make an interesting storyline. They wouldn’t turn Cena heel ’cause the WWE are afraid to lose their sponsors that he’s good at marketing for, and of course, they don’t want the children to get turned off by him. Cena started off as a heel earlier in his career when he was younger.

I’ll admit it, that Cena had quite a few amazing matches in his career, and you can’t deny that he’s a hard worker, I just think he’s very annoying. I think rap gimmicks in wrestling is awful to begin with. If Cena never had the rap gimmick that he has had for years, then he wouldn’t have gotten this big now. He’s not the next Hulk Hogan, guys. Yes, the Rock will probably keep the title and Cena will probably end up taking it from him at ‘Mania. I don’t even know if I want to watch Wrestlemania this year.

If the Undertaker doesn’t have a match at this year’s ‘Mania, then I wouldn’t even bother. I love Undertaker matches at ‘Mania ’cause they make it worth watching, his undefeated ‘Mania streak.

Back to John Cena, I don’t really hate the guy, honestly, but I just want the WWE to cut him some slack. There are plenty of other talented performers who deserve the same spotlight Cena is getting, like Ryback for example. I think Ryback is the best new performer we have today. Ryback is a great character and I think he’s going to be a big icon down the road, for sure.

John Cena is a pretty young guy, he’s just about my age, actually, lol. Cena will probably be around WWE for a long time. The only time if he’ll get forced to retire if he gets injured for real that prevents him from wrestling. Yes, wrestling maybe fake and scripted, but serious injuries do happen for real in wrestling. I’m not saying that I want Cena to get injured badly so he can be gone, just sayin’. Edge, was forced to retire at a young age ’cause of an injury and he can’t wrestle anymore ’cause of it.

I’m probably gonna watch RAW tonight, to see what’s gonna happen after the Rumble. I want to see Jericho ’cause he’ll be on tonight, I think. I also want to see CM Punk’s reaction now that he finally lost the belt. I’m sure Punk will deliver an amazing speech. I like CM Punk. He’s an amazing performer who I’ve admired for years. A lot of people hate Punk ’cause of his “Respect me, best in the world” stuff, but come on, it’s just a scripted wrestling show. I never take it seriously. On top of that, the bad guys (heels) are more interesting performers to begin with.

I’m definitely watching the Royal Rumble tonight..

5 Comments

Yeah, I think I’m definitely watching it ’cause I’m curious to see who’s going to actually win “The Rock vs. CM Punk” Championship match and the 30 Man Rumble match. My final prediction for tonight’s Rumble is that I think CM Punk will retain his WWE title, and Brock Lesnar returns tonight to win the Rumble matchup, so it can be CM Punk vs. Lesnar headlining Wrestlemania. I don’t think the Rock is gonna win tonight.

The other two matches for tonight’s ppv are going to be a Tag Team Champ match between Kane & Daniel Bryan vs. Cody Rhodes & Damien Sandow. Kane and Daniel Bryan could win and retain their titles.

There is also Alberto Del Rio vs. Big Show for the World Heavyweight Champion. Del Rio is currently champion who just took the belt from Big Show a few weeks ago and I think Big Show will get it back tonight.

It shall be a fun ppv. I’ve been watching the Rumble and Wrestlemania for years ever since the 90’s. I’ll review my thoughts tomorrow.

Netflix Pick: “After Porn Ends” (documentary)

Leave a comment

Last night, I watched a pretty cool documentary on Netflix, “After Porn Ends”, which gets deep into the lives of former porn stars. The porn industry have always been controversial and it’s not for everyone, and this documentary wants to give people insight on what porn stars lives are like when they aren’t working anymore. This documentary has interviews with some of the biggest porn stars of all time which includes: Houston, Nina Hartley, Mary Carey, Asia Carrera, etc. The documentary has all the legendary male porn stars too.

It was a pretty interesting and insightful documentary! Everyone wants to know what their lives are like when they are done with porn. Are their lives good when retired? Yes and no. It all depends. Basically, the only reason that these people get into porn, ’cause they were desperate for money. A lot of these people couldn’t get jobs else where and they figure that the only way to improve their lives is to get into porn. Before they got into adult film, their lives were hard. They basically had nothing. Sometimes their lives are good after porn. Some went on to better careers and raised a family, and all that good stuff. Sometimes their porn past wasn’t good. Some of them admit that their past will come back to haunt them and some admit they regret their careers. Their family members can also be uncomfortable with their porn past, as well.

They also explain how getting into the porn industry, can also mess up your life. Yes, in porn, there is a lot of partying, drugs, and alcohol, all that stuff.

Over the years, people wonder what happened to these porn stars when they are retired but in reality, they are just real people like all of us.  They have good homes, good families, like we all do. Some porn stars weren’t happy about their porn past and some were very proud of it. It’s a mix.

Yes, I do have an interest in adult porn. I’m not an addict, though, but I’m just like every man out there. I need to have my porn fix, sometimes, too! Porn is pretty cool. I don’t watch too much XXX hardcore stuff, haven’t watched one in a long time, but I do watch the Softcore stuff on HBOZ and the Showtime channels. I also like to buy adult magazines at times too. I don’t get into porn on the internet anymore as much as I used to ’cause I’m worried about spyware and other virus’s, so I just look for porn else where. A lot of people are afraid to admit that they enjoy porn, but I’m not afraid to be open about it. Why hide it, ya know? It shows you have the balls to be confident.

This was one of the best documentaries, I’ve seen on Netflix. Check it out.

Edit to add: And before anyone says it, “Kev, needs to get a girlfriend, already”. Yes, I do, and I’m gonna work on it. It’s about finding somebody right for me, I’m not gonna be the player type.

Disney/Lucasfilm confirms JJ is on board to direct “Star Wars 7″…

The Star Wars official site confirmed that JJ is indeed on board to direct, “Star Wars 7”, after the Wrap leaked the news early.

See more, here.

Lets pray they do a good job. It’ll be interesting to see how they’re gonna pull this off. While JJ is not really my favorite director in the world, it’s better getting him than Michael Bay, M. Night Shyamalan, McG, or Brett Ratner. Anybody but those guys.

Lets hope the Empire will still be the main villains. I want to see the Stormtroopers. Of course, since JJ is on board, he might make Stormtroopers a little different than George’s versions. Oh yeah, and the Millennium Falcon, needs to make an appearance in some way.

JJ will still produce “Star Trek III” and “MI: 5″…

Leave a comment

Even if JJ signed on to direct “Star Wars 7”, he will still make “Star Trek III” and “Mission Impossible 5”, but will only serve as producer. I can’t blame him for jumping onto Star Wars, instead, though.

More on the story, here.

Can JJ save the Star Wars franchise after the crappy prequels? I think he possibly could. It would be great to see Luke Skywalker back as the leading character. Mark Hamill is not that old, now, he’s just 61. He’s still a young guy. I’m sure he can still do lightsaber fights  just fine. 🙂

Politics/war

Finally, Obama got busted for something and didn’t get away with it, this time!

27 Comments

I don’t mean to post, yet again, another political topic, but had to respond to this one. Today, it is being reported that Obama was being unconstitutional when he appointed three members to the NLRB last year. Doing a little reading on what the NLRB are, they are an independent federal agency who investigates unfair labor practices.

Read, the full story here.

This is the kind of bullshit, I’m talking about, everyone, when it comes to, President Obama. It just proves how much of a scumbag and tyrant that Obama really is. He is nothing but a power hungry president who is not to be trusted.

Obama probably won’t get an impeachment over this, but he should since he was sworn in to defend the constitution earlier last Monday. Remember, you voted this man, people. He was unfaithful to the constitution on many other things. He needs to be exposed for Operation: Fast and Furious and Benghazi, as well.

Maybe the court ruling announcement will finally get the Obama supporters to realize what kind of man he really is. Probably not. They’ll just continue to kiss his ass and act like this is no big fuckin’ deal.

Thought: Despite the lens flares and shaky cameras, I think JJ will stay true to the Star Wars universe…

1 Comment

A lot of people worry that JJ will take Star Wars to a different direction, I did at first, but after thinking about it, I think JJ will stay true to the Star Wars  world. He will try to make Star Wars similar to how George Lucas did it, but of course, JJ will put his own style into the film too. No, I don’t think JJ will load up the opening Star Wars crawl with lens flares, and I’m sure the John Williams opening theme will still be there.

Thing is, you just never know how JJ is going to make the next Star Wars film. He’s going to bring us a lot of secrecy just like he did with his previous films. We will never know if Han, Leia, or Luke will be a part of this story ’cause he’s going to be secretive about it. The same whether or not Darth Vader or Yoda will make a return. For “Super 8”, he wouldn’t show us the monster in the film until the film came out, and he wouldn’t reveal the “Star Trek: Into Darkness” villain until later. Who knows what he’ll pull on us for the next “Star Wars” film. Yes, the script for Star Wars 7 is already finished, so we’ll never know what the plot will be.

Now that a director is finally found, you should expect casting to start real soon. There is no chance of Natalie Portman or Hayden Christensen returning, of course, but Samuel L. Jackson has a chance in returning, though. If the story does continue the lives of Han, Leia and Luke, that would be pretty amazing. Lando needs to comeback too, and yes, Chewbacca as well. C3p0 and R2 will probably return. The whole Star Wars gang just might come back.

Honestly, I don’t want Vader to return, I hope they made a new villain. I think JJ will make the light saber battles and the tie fighter scenes pretty enjoyable. JJ might do a good job, so I will give him a chance, ’cause I liked what he did with Star Trek. That’s probably what Disney wanted him for ’cause they liked what he did with Trek.

JJ is not dumb. He will give what all Star Wars fan would want, a great Star Wars movie. He’ll do the Star Wars franchise justice like he did with Trek. I think he will do fine.

Local music

My criticism toward bands and the local music scene (if there ever was a scene, that is)…

Leave a comment

I understand that my criticism toward bands and local music can be quite controversial. Usually when I have something to rant about, or have something honest to say, people around the scene would go nuts. It certainly would piss others off. I mean, some people around the scene try to avoid me like the plague and many refuse to add me in facebook, ’cause many around here, don’t like the way I treat the music scene. I also have some that actually like what I write about local music and some really do agree with some of the things I say about it. Like I always say, I like a mixed reaction. When people go crazy about my criticism and then they start hating, I’ve always believed from day 1 that the truth just simply bothers them. They just don’t like hearing the truth and they know I’m right about the things I say.

I know I can be a bit of a dick sometimes, but it’s just my way of getting people to listen and pay attention. I have the right to talk about music, bands, and the scene however I please, just like everyone else. It’s pretty funny how I can’t talk about local musicians, yet everyone think they have the right to talk about me whenever they want to? How hypocritical is that? I’ve been trying to figure that out for the past 10 years or so. Just proves my point how messed up and weird people can get in local music.

On top of that, I haven’t been a part of the local scene much anymore for the past couple of years or so. Haven’t been to any other band gigs (other than EBJ), and haven’t played any gigs of my own lately. I’m at the point where I don’t care about the scene anymore. It’s not much of a scene to begin with if you think about it. No places to play. Shit bands and not much good music anymore. Bands can be too much of an asshole around here, it’s crazy. All of it.

This is why it’s best that you should only care about yourself and your music. If you only care about yourself, and not give a shit about others, that’s what makes you a real, honest, and respectable musician. When you put yourself out there, people are going to be opinionated about you and you’re going to be criticized. Just be proud of yourself and your music, don’t worry about what others think.

Will I get myself out there, this year? Maybe play a few gigs? I’m gonna try. Just need to write up some new songs and learn new covers whenever I get around to it. I’ve been most focused on polishing up my guitar skills. I’m in no rush to write new songs. I’ve been studying guitar a lot lately, practicing and learning, to take myself to the next level in guitar playing. When I’m ready to do the music thing again, I’ll be ready. I’m just not ready right now. Don’t want to get too ahead of myself.

People are always criticizing me of not doing shit with my music or when am I ever going to release new stuff or gig again, but like I said, when I feel I’m ready, you’ll be the first to hear it, right here on this site. I really am trying to improve my talent and musicianship. I want to be the best musician and guitar player, I can be and trying to get there.

BREAKING NEWS: JJ Abrams first turned down to direct “Star Wars 7”, he’s now on board!!!

1 Comment

Welp, news broke the web today that JJ Abrams is officially on board to direct, “Star Wars 7”. First, JJ denied any involvement with Star Wars, that he didn’t want any part of it, but looks like he changed his mind. Look like JJ took a quick look at Lawrence Kasdan’s script and said, “I gotta do this!”.

My thoughts? It was too predictable to me that Lucasfilm/Disney was going to get JJ. I kind of called on it a long while back, and honestly, I’m kind of skeptical. Yes, he did a great job with the first “Star Trek” movie but, I still don’t like his style of film making. His overuse of the lens flare in movies does get pretty annoying, and so does his shaky cam technique. He is really good at action scenes, though, I’ll give him that respect

I just hope JJ doesn’t reboot Star Wars, and make the original characters young like he did with Star Trek. A young Han, Luke, and Leia? I don’t know, don’t make sense to me, since those characters were young in, “Episode IV: A New Hope”. Episode 7 will probably continue on from “Jedi”. I think Han, Luke, and Leia should still be played by the original actors. Harrison, Mark and Carrie. I can see JJ bringing them in somehow.

JJ has been getting some major franchises. First he got Mission Impossible, then Star Trek, and now Star Wars. I guess, JJ could possibly make a good Star Wars movie ’cause his Star Trek film did seem like Star Wars. I’ll give JJ a chance.

Now we wonder what’s going to happen to the Star Trek franchise, now that JJ is moving on to Star Wars, hmmmm….

More on the story, here.

Thought: “Man of Steel” question, who is Jenny Olsen???

Leave a comment

I know this blog has been a bit way too political as of late, but I think it’s time for a change and go back to discussing movies/music and other entertainment which was the original idea for this site to begin with.

A young actress by the name of Rebecca Bulller, is listed as Jenny Olsen in the “Man of Steel” IMDB page, and in the “Man of Steel” trailer, you see Laurence Fishburne as Perry White running with a young girl which appears to be, Rebecca, in the trailer. A lot of people are speculating that Jenny Olsen, could be a female version of Jimmy Olsen. Jimmy Olsen is not in “Man of Steel” at all, I believe.

The character Jenny Olsen, is not from the comics at all. It’s an original character for, “Man of Steel”.

I’m thinking that Jenny Olsen could be a possible relative of Jimmy Olsen. Maybe daughter or sister, or maybe even his wife, something like that. That way, they can introduce Jimmy for the “Man of Steel” sequel.

“Man of Steel” is full of secrecy, and all will be revealed when we see the actual film in June. The film has been rated PG-13. Some may mistakenly say that this is the first Superman PG-13 film but it isn’t ’cause the last Superman film, “Superman: Returns” was PG-13. All the Chris Reeve films were PG, I think. Superman can’t be an R rated film ever, in my opinion, ’cause this character was meant to be enjoyed for people of all ages.

In other Superman news, I also see that characters for the upcoming, “Justice League” film have been confirmed, and they are none other than Superman, Batman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern and the Flash. I hope they do a good job with the “Justice League” film. That film will be difficult to make it good. I know they will try to top “The Avengers”, but it will be hard to do. They just need a good director and good script.

Looking forward to both “Man of Steel”, and “Justice League”.
