The WWE Steroid Scandal Continues: 10 Wrestlers Suspended

While not 100% official, the following ten wrestlers listed appear to be the wrestlers most likely to have been suspended by WWE after Sports Illustrated revealed that every single one of them purchased drugs over the Internet through Signature Pharmacy, after the institution of the WWE Wellness Policy in February 2006 - a clear violation of the policy. WWE suspended 10 wrestlers this week based upon information received in the Signature bust, though not necessarily these wrestlers. Here is SI's list again:

Charlie Haas - Purchased drugs as late as January 2007.

Chavo Guerrero - Purchased drugs as late as May 2006.

Edge - Purchased drugs as late as February 2007.

Funaki - Purchased Somatropin in March 2006.

Gregory Helms - Purchased drugs as late as February 2007.

John Morrison - Purchased five different drugs as late as February 2007 .

Mr. Kennedy - Purchased three drugs between October 2006 and February 2007, including testosterone, which is an anabolic steroid. Kennedy sternly claimed in a recent interview entitled 'WWE Stopped My Steroid Use' that he completely stopped doing steroids as soon as the WWE Wellness Policy was implemented. You can read the interview at this link.

Randy Orton - Purchased drugs as late as February 2007.

Umaga - Purchased Somatropin as late as December 2006.

William Regal - Purchased drugs as late as November 2006.

Of the ten listed, two currently hold WWE Championship belts, two more are involved in a major storyline, four more are active performers, and two are out indefinitely due to injury.

The following five WWE wrestlers were listed as being clients of the Signature Pharmacy as well, but their names didn't turn up on Sports Illustrated's list. It should be noted that Anthony Carelli aka Santino Marella didn't sign a contract with WWE until 2006, and the WWE Wellness Policy was implemented early that year, so it would be wise to assume that the following wrestlers haven't been totally cleared yet in regards to a possible suspension just because their names weren't listed in the Sports Illustrated article:

Batista
Chris Masters
King Booker
Santino Marella
Simon Dean

The following five wrestlers are no longer contracted to WWE. Three are deceased, one was recently released, and Stamboli's WWE status is unclear at the moment.

Brian Adams
Chris Benoit
Eddie Guerrero
Johnny Stamboli
Sylvain Grenier

U.E. UPDATE:
Confirmed today that Mike Bucci (Simon Dean) has now been fired by the WWE. U.E. wishes Simon Dean the best of luck in his future endeavors in TNA.

Also, Nick Dinsmore (Eugene) has been released.

Saw 4 or Saw IV teaser trailer. If its Halloween... It must be Saw!

Review: Rob Zombie's Halloween


Alright, here we go.

Now this movie has been getting torn the fuck up, negative reviews everywhere. Well people need to calm down. In every single negative review, they are comparing it to the original. You can't do that. If someone says, "Hey I am going to do my own version of it." Then you have to look at it like that. You have to imagine yourself, that the original movie does not exist, and this is the first time you are ever watching it. This review will not compare the original to the remake until the very end when I just give some simple thoughts. This is a review on Rob Zombie's Halloween.

Now this is not a comparison. This is backstory of sorts to let you all know where I am coming from. I am a HUGE Halloween fan. I own 3 versions of it on DVD, I have a Myers figure on my computer desk at home, I have the framed movie poster, I was Myers for Halloween when I was 14, this past summer I drove out to Pasadena to just check out the neighborhood where the original was filmed. I remember every detail of the first time I ever saw Halloween. So this review is coming from a major fan of the original. So lets forget John Carpenter ever made Halloween....

Halloween is good. The first half of the movie shows a little boy, Michael Myers, dealing with his loving sweet Mom, his annoying sister and abusive drunken step father. He has bullies at school that torment him every day, shits rough. On top of that he loves torturing and killing animals. He seems to find life easier when he is hiding behind his clown mask. So of course, you know where this heads to. And he ends up at Smiths Grove Mental Institution. Dr. Loomis is treating young Michael who does not really remember what happened. His Mom comes to visit him but not matter what Loomis does, or his Mom, Michael keeps getting more and more crazy. Till finally he reaches the stage we all know is coming. Michael stops talking, and starts to turn even more evil than before. We then hit fifteen years later. Myers is all grown up, has not spoken in fifteen years, passes his time making hundreds of masks, and Loomis has no other choice but to give up. Of course Halloween comes and Myers sees his chance and makes his escape. One of the victims during this escape is actually a very rare thing that happens in horror movies these days, you actually give a damn about the person he kills and feel sad.

Now that is about the first half of the movie, which is great. Then we get into the second half which is pretty rushed and honestly gets boring and turns into a typical horror movie. It is seriously almost like two different people wrote the movie. One person wrote a great first half and another person came along and wrote the second half, which is a step by step typical horror movie. And consists of tits and gore. Because they spent so long making a great first half, they don't really bother with any more character development. You don't really care about anyone thats dying anymore. You actually hope they do die so they'll shut the fuck up. Everything is rushed, Michael is out and he is stalking Laurie Strode and her friends and killing anything that gets in his way to his little sister Laurie, who from what it seems like, just wants a hug from her. Not much can be said about the second half than that, its just Michael Myers killing a bunch of people. And then it seems like Rob Zombie had no clue at all how to end it, so he just did some random shit then BAM credits. Now I was really enjoying the hell out of the movie, I was shocked at how good it was, but the ending just left a bad taste in my mouth and I left the theater scratching my head, seriously, I was. Now as far as the actors? Well the kid playing young Michael was great. Malcolm McDowell had some pretty rough dialogue to get through but, he managed. And since Clockwork Orange is my all time favorite movie, I am a bit biased. Scout Taylor Compton as Laurie was alright only because she was really hot. Danielle Harris and Kristina Klebe are pretty much what you expect they're gonna be like. And Tyler Mane does a good job of playing Michael Myers. The kills are good and disturbing, Ken Forees bathroom scene with Myers is funny until Myers attacks. But scares? Zero. There are maybe 2 or 3 moments where they try the jump scare with a loud noise. None of which actually made me jump.

So how does it stack up to the original? Well of course the original blows this one away. Which is a "no fucking shit" comment. Anyone that thinks this is better than the original is a moron. Sorry, but you are. So lets just say this.... I am very pleased Linda says "totally" and that the score from the original movie is back in this. And the simple fact is this, if you are a fan of the Halloween movies, you are a fan of Michael Myers, and what we got in this movie, was a different version of Michael Myers, but it was Michael Myers!! And he is up on the big screen at long last.

All in all, it is just a typical Rob Zombie movie to me. House of 1000 Corpses and Devils Rejects were decent. I saw them in the theater, and had zero urge to ever watch again. But what I am going to do, is what most people should do. Put this one on the shelf with Halloween 3, as it never existing. Rob Zombie came along, showed us what he would have done, and that was that. We can now move on. Every year for Halloween I will still be watching John Carpenters version. If you want a great experience, I would say go and watch the first half of this movie, then go home and throw on the original. And to all the people taking major shits and having a huge fucking panic attack over this movie, I will quote Rob Zombie in a way and let you think about it...

"What would you rather have, a remake that tries to reinvent the franchise, or another Busta Rhymes kung fu Halloween movie? Thats what I thought."

Richard Kelly: Southland Tales finished by Friday (FINALLY!)

Richard Kelly, director of the upcoming SF epic movie Southland Tales, wrote on his official MySpace.com blog that he is in the final week of post-production on the movie.

"I have been working long, long hours," Kelly wrote this week. "The film is basically finished by the end of the day this Friday."

Kelly added that Sony, which is releasing the film, is putting the finishing touches on a trailer, which will debut "in the first week of September."

"I have seen it, and I can tell you that it is very action-packed, features three songs from the soundtrack, the entire cast of characters and a lot of one-liners," Kelly said. "Very exciting! Can't wait for everyone to see it."

Southland Tales takes place in near-future Los Angeles and follows a disparate group of characters on the eve of an unnamed apocalypse. Kelly promised news about a prequel graphic-novel compilation book and the film's soundtrack soon.

"We will be screening the film for the very first time in the coming weeks... so stay tuned," Kelly said.

Southland Tales, which stars Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson, Sarah Michelle Gellar and Seann William Scott, opens on Nov. 9.

Trendy Video Time: Gellieman - Aicha

This is by far, the greatest, music, video, EVER. And I now share it with you...



Action Figure News: Cobra Finally Fights G.I. Joe and Sgt Slaughter Back...With Rowdy Roddy Piper!

For 25 years, G.I. Joe has been bringing in the big guns to help in their effort to take out Cobra and it's forces. From William the Refrigerator Perry, to most notably, G.I. Joe mainstay Sgt. Slaughter. Well now, in honor of the 25th anniversary of G.I. Joe, Cobra is bringing in the Hot Rod himself, Rowdy Roddy Piper! In one of the coolest surprises I've seen form G.I. Joe since the 80's, Piper was announced as an exclusive JoeCon Convention figure. The convention will go down in Atlanta from September 27-30. Roddy is limited to only 1,000 figures and will come in the exclusive 25th anniversary G.I. Joe packaging, so this will definitely be hard to get your hands on. Piper is decked out in his classic look, even including the his famous kilt, but as the pics show, he's sporting a Destro shirt (even cooler that he's aligned with the legendary Destro!), and is labeled as an "Iron Grenadier," so Roddy is definitely all about Cobra! I've personally checked out some of the 25th anniversary figures, and they are very well done. I've even seen box sets of 5 figures in a box that plays the G.I. Joe theme. The 25th anniversary collection is a must own for any collector of the greatness that is G.I. Joe! All this kind of makes me wish we could still see the great cartoon on the air, and see the Hot Rod take on the Sarge in the ultimate G.I. Joe vs. Cobra showdown.

Check Out Ebay Mania!

Ever wonder what it takes to run an eBay store? What it takes to get started, how to run it, etc. Well check out the new blog Ebay Mania. They're going to be running down what it takes to run an eBay business, and will cover everything else eBay related!

Halloween. The Original to the Remake.

Story time kids, gather around, sit on the rainbow carpet. It is time to tell the tale of the greatest horror movie ever made. Halloween. To me, Michael Myers is the best slasher horror monster of them all. Sure Jason, Freddy, Chucky, Leatherface, and a slew of others all are good, but great? No. None of them felt real, at all. And honestly Chucky was the least scariest, just a fuckin doll. Jason well he turned into a baby when he hit some water, Freddy is afraid of fire. And well Leatherface, just run away. But Michael? Nothing stopped him, no water, no fire, not running away. If Myers wanted to kill you, he would. And that scared me, because to me, Myers could be real, Myers could be behind a tree in my yard, god knows what. Not only that but, above the others, Myers also has the most bad ass theme music ever. Halloween had changed my life. Just this past summer I made a trip to Pasadena CA. To walk the streets in the neighborhood where Myers killed all those damn kids. Here are a couple pics.
I was about 12 years old or so. And my parents owned a video store and my brother had recently showed me The Evil Dead. And I was craving more horror, and my Mom, who denies it to this day, suggested to me that I watch Halloween. No see I was 12 years old, but I wasn't stupid. I knew movies weren't real. I could handle some R rated horror madness. So later that night, my Mom laid back in the recliner, I sat on the couch. And got ready. My Mom turned to me and said, I know you know this, but this is only a movie, Ok? I shook my head, and that Pumpkin lit up the screen, that Halloween theme came on, and it was go time.

The movie ended, and I was scared out of my ever lovin mind. Fuck going to bed that night, wasn't going to happen. And I loved it. I needed more, craved more. The next day I demanded to watch Halloween 2. So I did. This dude that worked at my Moms video store warned me to not watch Halloween 3, I would just regret it and hate it. Well I said forget you buddy, I need more Halloween!!! Well yeah, he was right. Fuck Halloween 3.

Well 8 movies have come out. All about Halloween, well 7 technically. And I love 6 of them. Part 2 was great, Part 4 and 5 were awesome. Part 6 rules but only because it had some Paul Rudd greatness in it who kicked ass then and I am really glad hes a big name now. And H2O was the first one that I got to see in the theater, and even that one I loved. The moment when Jamie Lee sees Michael through that window in the door to me is one of the most iconic moments in movie history. Then of course came Halloween 8... with Busta Rhymes.... fucks sake. I knew right then that the franchise was dead, no more. Gone.

Then came the good news / bad news.... A new Halloween was going to be made. But... Rob Zombie was going to remake it. A fucking remake. Shit was so thrown in the air, and confused, I had no idea how to take it. I mean, Rob Zombie was alright, if anyone else was remaking this it would be a damn mockery. House of 1000 Corpses was just a crazy remake of Texas Chainsaw. Devils Rejects was just a remake of Natural Born Killers with a Thelma and Louise ending. And now instead of remaking something and calling it something else, hes just straight up remaking Halloween. Needless to say, I was pissed. Why a remake?! Why not just, make part 9 and have it go in a totally different direction? Restart the franchise with a new one! Ugh.

The day came when the trailer for Rob Zombies Halloween made its debut online. Well I was impressed. It looked like it could actually be good. Then I started thinking things out more and more. Well SOME remakes, are actually not all that bad, The Fly is great. The Hills Have Eyes was pretty good. And hell, John Carpenter himself did a remake of The Thing and it kicked ass and is remembered more than the original! But this is HALLOWEEN!! I have been reading some reviews that are just god awful from the sneak previews. I am trying to keep my mind open. I am hoping for the best. And people keep telling me "Dude, this doesn't mean that the original Halloween is gone." Well in a way, yes it will be. Look at The Thing, anyone remember the original? Not only that but from now on I have to alter the way I talk about Halloween, I now need to make it clear which Halloween I am talking about. This Friday I will of course be in line to see it, not because its a remake, but just because its Michael Myers. And hes in a new movie.

Nick Bollea AKA Nick Hogan AKA Hulk Hogans Son in car accident


Nick Bollea aka Nick Hogan was in an auto accident in Downtown Clearwater, FL this evening around 7:30EST.

The passenger is in critical condition. Nick Hogan is in serious condition with a broken arm and head injuries.

Firefighters had to extract Bollea and his passenger, whose identity was not immediately released, from the wreckage. Both were flown to a hospital in nearby St. Petersburg, Florida, Shelor said.

"They're both down there. Nick's father is down there," he said.

Police said Bollea -- known to viewers as "Nick Hogan" -- was not as seriously hurt as his passenger, who was listed as critical.

"I will have this road closed for a minimum of four hours," he said. "It was a spectacular wreck." said the police chief.

Owen Wilson Hospitalized in suicide attempt


This is probably the last actor I would ever see doing this kinda stupid shit, but whatever. Read on for the news story.

Actor Owen Wilson was rushed to hospital on Sunday after allegedly attempting suicide.

Star magazine and the National Enquirer claim the 38-year-old actor was taken to St. John's hospital in Santa Monica, Calif. by ambulance after police and paramedics responded to a 911 call from Wilson's home shortly after noon.

According to the report, a family member found Wilson with a sliced left wrist. He also allegedly took an unknown quantity of pills.

Santa Monica Police refused to provide details but confirmed that a person was transported to hospital for treatment.

Wilson was reportedly transferred to another hospital in stable condition after his wrist was sutured and bandaged.

The star is currently filming Tropic Thunder in Hawaii with Ben Stiller and has two more films lined up. His movies include You, Me and Dupree and Starsky & Hutch. Wilson's relationship with Kate Hudson ended earlier this year.

Classic WWE SummerSlam Memories

In honor of WWE's Summerslam later tonight, I've been checking out some of the classic videos that would kick off the event every year and some classic Summerslam matches on 24/7. Back then, Summerslam always fell on the Monday Night of the first day of school. School starting was always rough, but getting out after that first day, and knowing Summerslam was happening that night was a huge thrill. Summerslam 88 was the first WWE Pay Per View that I ever ordered. Seeing the Ultimate Warrior surprise the HonkyTonk Man and win the Intercontinental title from him was the first thing on that show that had me jumping up and down with madness. Honky had just held the title for well over a year, and the Warrior destroyed him. Of course the classic MegaPowers vs. MegaBucks showdown was the hugely hyped highlight of the night, and with Jesse "The Body" Ventura as the special ref, this first SummerSlam main event was great. Summerslam 89 had the Ultimate Warrior regaining the Intercontinental Title from Rick Rude, and he began his road to WrestleMania 6 as the next big main event star. We also saw Hulk Hogan and Brutus Beefcake take on Macho Man and Zeus, which was interesting as was anytime Zeus was in the ring. Summerslam 90 My memories include seeing the Texas Tornado Kerry Von Erich defeat Mr. Perfect for the IC title, the Hulk Hogan return to take on Earthquake, and the Ultimate Warrior defeat Rick Rude in a cage match, in which i thought at the time Rude had a definite chance of winning. SummerSlam 91 had multiple memories, the match made in heaven with Mach Man and Elizabeth's wedding, the match made in hell with Hulk Hogan and the Ultimate Warrior taking on the Triangle of Terror with Sid as the referee, the Legion of Doom becoming the first and only team to win the AWA, NWA, and WWE Tag Team Titles as they defeated the Nasty Boys, and of course Bret Hart's classic win over Mr. Perfect for the IC title. '92 was the unforgettable Wembley Stadium show, with a record crowd witnessing the legendary British Bulldog vs. Bret Hart IC title classic (My oh my the IC title produced so many Summerslam memories). The list goes on and on with great Summerslam Memories.

Today, Summerslam is still one of the "Big Four" pay per views of the year, although is doesn't have the same special feeling it did in the beginning, this year WWE has at least done a good job making the event feel "special" with the return of Triple H, and even Rey Mysterio. Hopefully tonight will be one of the top pay per views of the year, which will also FINALLY hopefully end the reign of John Cena, and let a new era begin! If not, I'll be HUGELY disappointed, as its time for Cena to hit the door. Feel free to comment and share your own Summerslam Memories here.

Aliens Vs. Predator 2, or, AVP2, or for some stupid reason.. Aliens Vs Predator: Requiem


I did not even bother with Alien Vs. Predator 1. And have no desire to see part 2. I loved Alien, loved Aliens, and loved Predator. Then to see 2 of the screens biggest bad asses go at it... in PG-13? Fuck that shit. On top of the fact that retard that made the first, didn't bother to bring the monsters creator, Stan Fucking Winston, on board to do the monsters for it, even made it that much more idiotic and pointless for me to watch. The only thing that this sequel has going for it, is Paul W S Anderson is not coming back to direct it. That guy could not direct his way out of a paper bag, sorry but everything he has made has been a pile of dog shit. Instead this one is made by the Strause brothers, who really haven't made anything else. They're both mainly visual effects guys, who most recently worked on 300. Either way, I have no desire to see this. But I can promise its better than the last movie.

Click here to be whisked away to the trailer. Lemme know how it is.

UPDATE: Well I just watched the trailer.... honestly, it looks decent, why the fuck didn't they make this one in the first place kinda decent? Just more proof that Paul W S Anderson sucks.

American Gladiators Returns!

Thats right boys and girls, American Gladiators is coming back this fall! To NBC!! Boo yaa motha fuckas!!! Here is the story straight from, Variety!!!!! So go dig out those Siren posters! Get out your Nitro costumes!!!! And get yo joust on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

NBC is getting into the ring with "American Gladiators," which has been revived by the Peacock for midseason.

The competition skein -- which featured players with names like Nitro, Turbo and Laser in its campy, early '90s syndie incarnation -- will be updated for the 21st century with new technology and twists. MGM TV, which was behind the original hit, is producing along with Reveille.

Peacock's interest in the revival actually predates the arrival of NBC Entertainment/Universal Media Studios co-chairman Ben Silverman, who began developing the project while still in charge of Reveille. Net confirmed last month that "Gladiator" was a priority at the net (Daily Variety, July 16).

"We've been circling around this property for a long time now," said Craig Plestis, exec VP of alternative programming, development and specials at NBC Entertainment. "It's truly what's not in the TV landscape right now. While everyone's zigging, I'm attracted to doing a zag."

Net wouldn't confirm the episodic order, but at least six segs are believed to be in the works. NBC could opt to launch the show as a one-week strip -- similar to how it bowed "Deal or No Deal" -- or as a weekly skein.

Airing in syndication from 1989-96, "American Gladiators" focused on physically fit amateur athletes who competed against the show's regulars (action stars, stunt professionals and pro athletes) in various physical strength and endurance competitions.

The show hit it big by showcasing David vs. Goliath-style battles in events such as the Joust, the Wall, the Eliminator and Hang Tough. Coincidentally, the original "Gladiators" shot its first several seasons at Universal Studios.

Plestis said he was particularly interested in the original U.K. version of "Gladiators," which focused even more on the characters and the behind-the-scenes stories of common folk going up against the show's powerful stars. The new "Gladiators," he said, "will have the scale, scope, different characters and family drama that the U.K. version had."

"We're not going to completely reinvent the wheel here," he said. "But we're making it better, faster and stronger."

Show will follow eight gladiators -- four men and four women -- as they take on contestants both male and female. This time, in a new wrinkle, the players will be given the opportunity to train for their match -- and viewers will be given a glimpse of their personalities prior to the actual competish.

MGM Worldwide TV co-prexy Jim Packer said reviving "Gladiators" was part of a strategy to mine the company's library and revive franchises for a new generation of TV viewers. Repeats of the original show are currently posting decent ratings on ESPN Classic, he noted.

"The timing to bring the franchise back is perfect, and NBC is the ideal home," Packer said. "It's a very big, grandiose type of show."

In the 10 years after "Gladiators" went off the air, Reveille managing director Mark Koops said, shows like "Fear Factor" raised the bar for stunt-driven shows, and thus it's more important than ever to find contestants with compelling backstories. Producers are currently scouting for new gladiators and hosts in addition to contestants. Koops will serve as an exec producer.

"Gladiators" marks the first co-production between MGM TV and Reveille. Under their arrangement, MGM Worldwide will handle international sales of the show, while Reveille will be in charge (with MGM's assistance) of selling new locally produced editions around the world.

Koops said Reveille is close to making several international deals, including co-productions in Australia and the U.K.

Besides Koops, exec producers include Reveille's Howard Owens, as well as "Fear Factor" alum David Hurwitz and original series creator Johnny Ferraro.



Could Ferris Bueller 2 happen?

Ferris Bueller fans, here's some amazing news: There is a finished script being shopped in Hollywood for a sequel to the 1986 teen classic.

Titled "Ferris Bueller 2: Another Day Off," the movie places Ferris on the eve of his 40th birthday. The script was written by Rick Rapier, a screenwriter based in Arizona. Rapier provided "Stuck in the '80s" with an exclusive and complete copy of the 106-page script.

Is it good? I thought it was a blast. I read it in a single afternoon and was impressed with the care Rapier took with the original story and characters. The story has the same feel, humor and pace as the 1986 movie, which should please hard-core Ferris fans.

The movie fast-forwards Ferris' life about 20 years. In the years since high school, Ferris has turned his carefree "Life Moves Pretty Fast" motto into a motivational self-help career -- think Tony Robbins, only with a beret and sweater vest. His best friend Cameron is still at his side, managing his massive business.

But despite his phenomenal success, Ferris is a bit distracted on his 40th birthday (which, considering his massive fame, is being watched on pay-per-view TV by millions of devoted fans). He decides to take the day off, sending Cameron, his business associates and family into a frenzy.

Rapier says he hopes John Hughes would direct the movie and all the actors would return to reprise their original roles, including Matthew Broderick ("Ferris), Alan Ruck ("Cameron") and Jeffrey Jones ("Ed Rooney"). And what are the characters all up to now?

  • Ferris' sister Jeannie (Jennifer Grey) is married to the boy she met in the police station (Charlie Sheen).
  • No longer a school administrator, Rooney is still stalking Ferris for revenge.
  • The economics teacher played by Ben Stein now is an airline gate representative.
  • Ferris' girlfriend Sloane Peterson (Mia Sara) is a Hollywood star going through a rough marriage.

Can the movie be made? Right now, that's completely up to Hollywood. Rapier says several players in the movie business have read the script, with various reactions. One executive who passed on the script said he didn't like the idea that Ferris was profiting from his persona, Rapier said.

The big questions are whether Hughes can be talked into returning the director's chair and whether a studio will take a chance on a script from a relatively unknown writer. Personally, I think the Ferris legacy is too tempting to resist.

Come on, Hollywood. Take the chance. After all, as our hero says, "Life goes by pretty fast. If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it."

I have new respect for Michael Bay: "No Transformers 2!:

Well the Blu Ray HD war has taken its first casualty. Because of studios being stupid, now they're pissing film makers off and in doing so, has killed chances of a Transformers 2. Sigh... read on for the story from ComingSoon.net



Michael Bay Says No to Transformers 2
Source: Michael Bay
August 21, 2007


Transformers director Michael Bay has responded to Paramount/DreamWorks' decision to become exclusive to HD DVD instead of releasing movies on both Blu-ray Disc and HD DVD:

Bay said: "I want people to see my movies in the best formats possible. For them to deny people who have Blu-ray sucks! They were progressive by having two formats. No Transformers 2 for me!"

Will this change Paramount/DreamWorks' mind about at least releasing Transformers also on Blu-ray Disc? We're not sure, but we have a feeling Mr. Bay isn't the only unhappy one. Yesterday's press release itself concluded with a note that read, "Today's announcement does not include films directed by Steven Spielberg as his films are not exclusive to either format."

Can't get enough Californication!

I'm telling ya people, I've previewed it, I've reviewed it, and I don't know what else there is really to say other than - I fucking love this show! I never really even liked David Duchovny before! I was never a real big X-Files fan, and I can't really name any of his movies off the top of my head, but let me say this - David Duchovny is a fucking god.

Californication has the balls to say things on TV that no one else is saying.

Picture it like this - on Entourage, Ari Gold has the occasional great one liner, that leave you cracking up - now picture this - an ENTIRE 30 minutes of that same type of hilariousness! David Duchovny performs over and over, leaving my face sore from laughing by the end of the show. The supporting cast is great, with a bunch of familiar faces, and there's a plethora of young, beautiful, and often times naked women along for the ride.

People, if you haven't seen this show yet, what the hell are you waiting for? Order Showtime, watch it, and then thank me later. Californication is here to stay, and you'll only kick yourself if you waste any more time before getting hooked on it.

Fox and MGM Unveil Blu-ray Exclusives

August 20, 2007


Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment (TCFHE) today unveiled an aggressive global Blu-ray Disc release strategy including 29 new release and "must-have" catalog titles that runs through the end of the 2007 calendar year. Among the many highlights of the impressive worldwide slate are six day & date BD/DVD new theatrical releases from Fox including the $241 million box-office family favorite Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer and the $335 million box-office action powerhouse Live Free or Die Hard, four day & date BD/DVD (U.S. only) new theatrical releases from MGM, 19 'must-have on BD' films from the two studios' libraries, Fox's first-ever TV release on BD - "Prison Break" -- and Fox's intention to release at least one state-of-the-art title per month featuring numerous BD 'firsts.

The only high-definition packaged media universally supported by the film, music, gaming and computer industries, BD is the #1 selling high-definition packaged media. In fact, on a worldwide basis, BD is averaging nearly 70% market-share per week of all high definition titles sold this year and, in the U.S., it is out-performing HD DVD by a margin of 115%.

"Given that Blu-ray has consistently outsold HD DVD all year, and this is the case for any titles released by any studio in both formats, we believe that the time is right for us to accelerate our activities and help convert the nearly 60 million high definition households worldwide into Blu-ray households," noted Mike Dunn, President Worldwide, Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment. "By the end of this calendar year there will be expansive availability of technically vibrant releases featuring never-before-seen, advanced BD-J interactivity as well as a broad offering of playback devices at attractive prices that will prove to any doubting consumers once and for all that Blu-ray is the only way."

"And as Blu-ray support continues to grow stronger, it has become survival of the fittest which is most apparent in the retail landscape where our eager and growing global Blu-ray consumer base has caused a shift that is forcing the allocation of more space to the format that is selling the best. And, in many recent instances of note, top retailers in North America are choosing to promote the Blu-ray format exclusively in their stores," continued Dunn.

Among the BD industry 'firsts' from the studios' upcoming global release slate are picture in picture capability, enhanced viewing and surround sound modes with the ability to mix and match picture and sound, direct access to in-movie features through one of the four colored buttons on the BD remote and the most technically vibrant BD-Java interactive multi-player challenge and trivia games to date. The studios' slate also takes full advantage of BD-Live functionality this fourth quarter. Internet-connected consumers will enjoy unique, title specific "web-enabled" interactive features and games and "web-exclusive" downloadable content with the ability to connect and interact with other broadband BD users worldwide.

Cementing its leadership position within the industry - previous BD releases Night at the Museum and X-Men: The Last Stand rank in the Top 20 best-sellers - the vast majority of the studios' upcoming global slate will be presented on 50 GB dual-layer discs with advanced BD-J interactivity and feature numerous Blu-ray exclusive high-definition bonus materials that further realizes BD's incredible potential. Consumers will enjoy the superior video and audio elements of AVC encoding and Lossless HD audio on many of the coming titles as well as enhanced and integrated menus, personal scene selections, search indexing, trivia and other title specific games and high-definition bonus materials.

Upcoming BD-J features exclusive to priority catalogue titles from Fox and MGM include an "Alien Scavenger Hunt" (Independence Day) that challenges players to earn points by identifying the correct number of aliens in select scenes to unlock additional bonus features; a "Global Warming Trivia Track" (The Day After Tomorrow) where users must correctly answer questions about global warming to keep the Earth's temperature from rising and being destroyed; and a historical and geographical pop-up map (Master & Commander) that tracks the location of Captain "Lucky" Jack Aubrey and his enemies.

Blu-ray Disc is a next generation optical disc format developed for high-definition video and high-capacity software applications. A single-layer Blu-ray Disc holds up to 25 gigabytes of data and a dual-layer Blu-ray Disc holds up to 50 gigabytes of data. This greater storage capacity enables the Blu-ray Disc to store over six times the amount of content than is possible with current DVDs, and is particularly well-suited for high definition feature films with extended levels of additional bonus and interactive material. Blu-ray also features the most advanced copy protection, player backward compatibility with the current DVD format, connectivity and advanced interactivity.

Fox takes advantage of the next generation format's high definition technology and advanced functionality to present its titles with the highest quality audiovisual elements. Showcasing picture quality with six times the resolution of DVD and theater quality "uncompressed" audio for the purest digital sound, the cutting-edge discs also feature enhanced and integrated menus, games, high-definition bonus materials and Java-encoding for more dynamic and sophisticated interactivity.

You know what, fuck it. I am bringing back VHS. Who is with me?!?!?!


Paramount and Dreamworks Animation give HD DVD support?!

Just the other day, it seemed that Disney had delivered the death blow to HD DVD. Saying that they will begin releasing their Disney Classics and other Disney titled on BluRay only. Well... today comes news that Paramount and Dreamworks Animation are going exclusively to HD DVD. Transformers will NOT be coming to BluRay. As well as a slew of other awesome movies. Good grief this is insane. But hey, for about 1,200 you can go and buy the HD/BluRay in one player? Ugh. This is crazy, read on to read the official press release.

Los Angeles, CA, August 20, 2007 – Paramount Pictures, a unit of Viacom Inc. (NYSE: VIA and VIA.B) and DreamWorks Animation SKG (NYSE:DWA), each announced today that they will exclusively support the next-generation HD DVD format on a worldwide basis. The exclusive HD DVD commitment will include all movies distributed by Paramount Pictures, DreamWorks Pictures, Paramount Vantage, Nickelodeon Movies and MTV Films, as well as movies from DreamWorks Animation, which are distributed exclusively by Paramount Home Entertainment.

The companies each said that the decision to distribute exclusively in the HD DVD format resulted from an extensive evaluation of current market offerings, which confirmed the clear benefits of HD DVD, particularly its market-ready technology and lower manufacturing costs. Paramount Home Entertainment will launch its exclusive HD DVD program with the release of the blockbuster comedy hit “Blades of Glory” on August 28th and follow with two of the biggest grossing movies of the year “Transformers” and “Shrek the Third”. These three titles alone represent more than $1.5 billion in box office ticket sales worldwide.

“The combination of Paramount and DreamWorks Animation brings a critical mass of current box office hits to consumers with a line-up of live action and animated films that are perfect for HD DVD,” stated Brad Grey, Chairman and CEO of Paramount Pictures, which is currently the leading studio in domestic box office. “Part of our vision is to aggressively extend our movies beyond the theater, and deliver the quality and features that appeal to our audience. I believe HD DVD is not only the affordable high quality choice for consumers, but also the smart choice for Paramount.”

“We decided to release “Shrek the Third” and other DreamWorks Animation titles exclusively on HD DVD because we believe it is the best format to bring high quality home entertainment to a key segment of our audience – families,” stated DreamWorks Animation CEO, Jeffrey Katzenberg. “We believe the combination of this year’s low- priced HD DVD players and the commitment to release a significant number of hit titles in the fall makes HD DVD the best way to view movies at home.”

With the rapid increase of HD TV screens in households, and audiences wanting to enjoy the total entertainment experience, HD DVD has emerged as the most affordable way for consumers to watch their movies in high definition. In addition to pristine quality, HD DVD also offers consumers the chance to personalize the movie-watching experience, to interact with their movies and even to connect with a community of other fans.

Paramount Home Entertainment will issue new releases day and date as well as catalog titles exclusively on HD DVD. Today’s announcement does not include films directed by Steven Spielberg as his films are not exclusive to either format.

New CKY Album in Spring 08! On tour with GWAR!! Viva La Bands!

This update comes directly from CKY themselves. If you have yet to listen to the greatness that is CKY, I suggest you do so now. Anyway, on with the important stuff...

The new album is coming along quicker and smoother than any record we've ever done, and the excitement of being with a new label with many possibilities has me writing non-stop. I'm still coming up with music for the new record, which the band and I are reluctant to elaborate on the details of the material and direction because it raises and/or lowers fan's expectations but it's obvious in typical CKY fashion that if we didnt feel it was better than what we've done in the past that it wouldnt be worth working on. Some of the song titles we're working with are "Hellview III: Hellions on Parade", "Karma Works its Way", "Underappreciated", "Making Contact", "...And She Never Returned", "The Boardwalk Body", "There's Two of Me" and other classics to be. Our work ethic has been more along the lines of Volume 1 and IDR where we tend not to overexamine things and just go with what sounds great right away. There's still a lot of work to do but the album will easily be out by March/April '08.

And if that is not enough to get you excited, how about the fact that tickets just went on sale Saturday for Viva La Bands, a concert featuring... CKY.... and GWAR!!!!!!!!!!!

Movie Review: Superbad

Superbad is here, and it's every bit as good as I was expecting. While it has a few slow parts midway through, the movie certainly does not live up to its title and easily ranks right along with Knocked Up for funniest movie of the year.

To think that just a few months ago no one knew who Judd Apatow or Seth Rogen were is pretty amazing. Sure, they'd done The 40-Year Old Virgin, but Steve Carell got all the credit for that one. Then came Knocked Up, an inexpensive, critically reviewed box office smash that remained in the top ten for ten consecutive weeks. Two months later, here comes Superbad, and it's more of the same: raunchy but "sophisticated" humor, a sharp screenplay and a great, little-known cast. Apatow, Rogen and others have, in one summer, cemented themselves as the guys to go to when it comes to comedy.

Superbad is this decade's American Pie, only it is punchier and less-slapstick driven. There's no nudity, unfortunately, but there's not much of a place for it, either. The movie is about two losers trying to get laid before the end of high school, but director Greg Mottola and writers Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg don't try to fill the film with pie-filling pranks and get-laid-quick schemes. Considering that the two lead characters are named Seth and Evan, it is safe to assume that Superbad is based slightly (hopefully just slightly) on real experiences, and it plays out as such. Despite being crude and full of hijinx, Superbad is a pretty grounded and believable film, which makes it all the funnier.

Jonah Hill (the chubby one) is terrific as the fast-talking schemer with a dick-drawing problem, and paired with the more quiet Michael Cera we have one of the best on-screen buddy duos in quite a while. Both actors are at the top of their game here, and this should cement them as cult icons. Of course, Christopher Mintz-Plasse steals scenes as the extremely nerdy and awkward Fogell, already known for months as McLovin.

The movie is downright hilarious and has plenty of laugh-out-loud scenes throughout. As one might imagine, the first act is the funniest, but the movie is great throughout, though it does falter in a few parts halfway through. There are a couple scenes that aren't very funny and the story begins to drag, but Superbad picks itself up every time. At nearly two hours, the movie could have benefited by cutting out about ten minute or so.

Superbad is a great way to end the summer, and despite lacking any nudity, it will forever be one of the best R-rated teen comedies. Highly recommended to anyone who doesn't mind a lethal dose of swearing. I say Superbad, is Super Good.

Author's note: A few weeks ago our own Random Villain got to see a sneak preview of the movie. Click here to see his review, and compare our notes to see if we had the same thoughts!

HD Vs. Blu Ray: Blu Ray Wins!

I have been looking up on both these new types of DVD. Trying to figure out which will come out on top. My parents own an HD player. I own a Blu Ray player (PS3). My parents and I even own the same type of TV. An HD DLP from Samsung. Of course Mine is only a 50 inch, theirs is 60. Psh. Anyways the picture quality kinda looks the same, the sound quality is about the same. So whats the big difference? Well size. You know the 2nd disk of special features you get with special edition DVDs? Well Blu Ray will never have a 2nd disk. Because everything from that 2nd disk can fit onto 1 disk with everything from the 1st disk. So if you're done watching the movie, no need to throw in the 2nd disk to check out special features. (Remember Laserdisk? Oy vey.) But even still people have wondered which will end up coming out the winner? Well the winner has been decided. Not by us, buy by Disney.

Disney plans to start releasing all their classics onto Blu Ray. Which is a major step. Pinocchio was put on VHS when people were questioning it and VHS exploded. When DVD was also questioned, Disney put out Snow White And The Seven Dwarves and well, DVD pretty much erased the existence of VHS. And now Disney plans on releasing Sleeping Beauty onto Blu Ray next Fall. Now I do not think that DVD will be gone, I am sure DVD will be around for a long long time and will still remain the top format for home entertainment. But when it comes to HD vs Blu Ray. I think Blu Ray is tops. Blu Ray 1. HD DVD 0.

Here is the actual article from the news...

Disney Announces Blu-ray Title Wave Coming '08
Source: Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment
August 18, 2007


Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment (WDSHE) announced Friday more innovations in the Blu-ray format with the studio's first ever Platinum Blu-ray release, the studio's first BD-Live title, and full motion picture-in-picture Blu-ray bonus features.

The studio announced the first animated Platinum coming to Blu-ray will be the timeless treasure Sleeping Beauty. Releasing Sleeping Beauty on Blu-ray marks a milestone for the format as these titles are not released until a format has been proven both technologically and in terms of consumer acceptance - and Disney's animated releases in the past have been a major catalyst for any format's growth. Pinocchio's release on VHS and Snow White's release on DVD marked major growth milestones for both of those formats. The Sleeping Beauty Blu-ray Disc release will also include a virtual castle and multi-player activities - both utilizing the BD-Live technology.

"The Platinum titles are the crown jewels of the Disney Studios and we do not take releasing them lightly on any format. The proven Blu-ray technology has allowed us to take our films to new heights, fully utilizing the larger capacity and interactive capabilities for an incredible all-new consumer experience," commented Bob Chapek, President of Walt Disney Studios Home Entertainment.

In addition, WDSHE announced the special edition release of the action-adventure blockbuster National Treasure, which will become the studio's first BD-Live Blu-ray Disc title. In addition, the studio will bring two of its treasured family classics to Blu-ray Disc, Disney/Pixar's Finding Nemo and The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, both of which will feature full motion picture-in-picture bonus features.

"The strides that we've made with this format are just the tip of the iceberg and we are confident that consumers will be astounded by the level of entertainment that can only be achieved by using the maximum capacity of the Blu-ray Disc format. All of these wonderful titles will appeal to the ever growing Blu-ray market and we are extremely proud to offer these in the most pristine and robust presentations ever for Disney fans around the globe," continued Chapek.

This exciting slate of Blu-ray Disc releases will begin with The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe in spring 2008, followed by National Treasure in summer of 2008 and culminating with Disney/Pixar's Finding Nemo and Sleeping Beauty in fall 2008.

King Leonidas To Escape From New York?!


Len Wiseman is all but got the spit handshake from New Line to join Gerard Butler as Snake Plissken in the remake, ugh, to Escape From New York. John Carpenter will be Executive Producer on this as he was on The Fog... Yeah, The Fog remake, remember that? "Black Hawk Down" writer Ken Nolan is doing up the script. Which hey, I enjoyed Black Hawk Down. I even enjoyed Len Wisemans Live Free Or Die Hard. And any sane person in this world loved the hell out of Butler in 300! So it can't be all that bad.... right? I just hope that in this remake, they explain exactly what happened with Snake in Cleveland.

I'm just wondering exactly what movie that Carpenter made that won't be getting remade at this point. But I swear if they go near remaking They Live, there is going to be hell to pay...
