Red Band Repo Men
Dec 29th
Okay, remember a few months ago when I posted the trailer for a flick called Legion that is coming out soon about a fallen angel and such? I went on a bit of a rant about how I wrote a story eerily similar to that concept. Anyways, I think it happened again. Check out this red band trailer for a flick called Repo Men starring Jude Law and Forest Whitaker. In all honesty, the concept of organ repo men in a futuristic reality was not my idea, but it was brought to me a few years ago as a concept and I put together More >
Kick-Ass Hit Girl Trailer
Dec 28th
Okay, originally I was skeptical about Kick-Ass, then I was mildly interested, then I was pretty excited, and now, with the release of the latest Hit Girl centric trailer, I’m full on “Kid Who Can’t Wait to Go To Disneyland.” Check out the latest from Kick-Ass and see all of the action in sequence. Although Nick Cage is featured in this clip, I’m going to assume this is a computer generated image of a douche instead. For a little bit of background info, Hit Girl is one of the essential characters in Kick-Ass. She’s basically a little kid that has been More >
Some Screwed Up Shit
Dec 17th
I’m a huge Keira Knightley fan, but I think I can only watch this once. I… really don’t have a lot to say about it other than that….
High on Sierra! Meet Dichen Lachman
Dec 16th
Ah yes, it’s that time of the week/month/and even day I guess when I decide to share a little bit of info on a not-so-well-known (yet) female star. Okay, in the past I haven’t really profiled “stars” but I like to think I can spot talent when I see it. In the last few months I’ve profiled people like Deborah Ann Woll, Naya Rivera and recently Courtney Ford. Today’s profile focuses on Dichen Lachman. According to the phonetics department over at Wikipedia (alright they probably don’t have a phonetics department, but I’ve got this imaginative picture of Wikipedia being a bunch of More >
Finagle Your Bagel
Dec 15th
Shock value is one thing, but I think it’s a while other spoonful of goodness when you combine shock and great script writing for one super value meal. Wow, that’s a lot of pointless food metaphors. Anyways, check out this new commercial from Finagle Knows Bagel. It’s not shocking like “wow I can’t believe they would show that on TV,” or anything, but it’s pretty (beep)ing funny.
Loving The Distillery District, But Not The Segway
Dec 14th
Not my picture, totally stole this
So I just moved into my new place and headed on down to the Distillery District in Toronto. Love it. The chocolate factory speaks to me on so many levels and I could probably spend hours just walking around and checking out the galleries. I know I know, before you deem me a hipster, please read on.
The Distillery is great, with one exception, Segway. Amidst a plethora of art galleries, boutique shops and coffee houses is a Segway shop and tour that sticks out like a bad rash. I’m going to go on a bit of More >
Rypien Strikes Again… And Again And Again On Some Dude’s Face
Dec 11th
Not sure how many Canucks fans out there that are reading this, but with the season we’re having right now, the only consistency we have with our team is the frequency of fists to face by Rick Rypien. The little man feeds off mismatches and pummels larger opponents. A bit of background info on the Rypper:
Bloodlines:
When you’re a born and raised in a boxing family it wouldn’t surprise anyone if you knew how to throw a few. Rick Rypien’s father was a Canadian champ back in the day, so the fists of fury are in the blood. From the looks of More >
