Sorry I've been a busy camper. Making moves with my lady friend and with school, school, school, and school. Any how, time for a MEGA POSTING! YAY KIDS! That poor child above has no bearing on what I'm going to write. Thought it was funny... what the hell it's Friday.


What do we got today? A bunch of new rated-R trailers for some potentially great movies.

Today, I will be introducing what will be a weekly occurrence, Ayo Technology Tuesday ft. 50 Cent, which I will post gadgets and news on cool technology.

Ayo, are you tired of using Window’s Paint? Then why don’t you upgrade your game with free Photoshop? Adobe is now offering their $800 Photoshop for free, allowing you to do all sorts of cool things with your photos. Want to crop, change the contrast, make your photo invisible, now you can do it for free. Source

As wise 50 Cent once said: "I'm in a class by myself, you do the math."

Ayo, are you tired of your BlackBerry? Then why don’t you get this Touch-Screen BlackBerry? Verizon Wireless is about to start selling touch-screen Blackberry phones. The phone is called 'Thunder' and is going to compete with iPhone.

50 Cent says: "Next level now, turn it up a notch."

Ayo, are you tried of playing GTA III? Then why don’t you insert GTA IV in your PSP III? In case you haven't heard GTA IV broke a bunch of records by selling 3.6 million units on its first day of release and netted more than $500 million in sales. Apparently, this is the most fresh game ever made, it has the all-time highest rating of 97.627% on Game Rankings. Grand Theft Auto IV features "morality choices" at several points throughout the game, in which the player is forced to choose between killing a character or sparing their life or killing one of two characters. He player can slide to cover, blindfire, and free aim. When locked on, the target's health is indicated by eight coloured segments on the target circle. Players can now target individual body parts using a revamped targeting system.

In the words of gangsta 50 Cent: "The semi auto spray, run if you get away, I'll find your whereabouts and clap at you another day."

Ayo, are you tried of sitting in second class? Then why don’t you sit down in first class? Now if you are a baller like 50 Cent: "I get money, money is got, money I got, money is got" then you afford to spend $11,707 for a round-trip first class flight from Singapore to NY. Hey but you get a hell of lot with that flight.

Ten grand gets you a suite separated from the main cabin by sliding double doors with mood lighting, a whopping 7-foot long bed, a 23" flatscreen TV, storage closets and work table that doubles as a dining table a deux.

When hunger strikes, the fare includes both Indian and international meals -- all served on hand painted porcelain -- coupled with top-of-the-line wines and vintage champagnes. Not to mention an extensive assortment of Single Malt Whiskeys poured into crystal cocktail glasses.

On the new Emirates A340-500, there are 12 first-class cabins fit for a king, outfitted in leather and walnut with gold accents.

Beyond their rooms, passengers have plenty of space to move about the cabin (thanks in part to a lack of overhead storage bins), hit the communal bar and mingle with the other royal guests if they're feeling social.

If not, the suites are equipped with a personal mini-bar and meals or movies can be ordered on demand from a hand-held remote. The plush leather seat reclines to become a fully-flat bed at the press of a button. There are also buttons to close the doors to your suite and illuminate a 'do not disturb' sign. Once safe and sealed inside, the walls are even insulated to reduce noise.

Alright all you Transformers fans today is your day. If you haven't heard by now Transformers 2 is in 'pre-production' mode. According to /Film, production beings next month with shooting in good old Pennsylvania. One of the scenes will transform an old Pennsylvania furnace in Bethlehem into an Asian city. From the picture below I'm guessing North Korea? If you are Asian between the ages of 7 and 65 years old, there's a good chance you can be an extra on the sit.


And here is the rest of it.

Apparently, Robot Metals a Thailand company created a Shaq size (7 foot 485 pounds) Transformer Optimus Prime scuplture selling for $4,838. There's no way I would buy that thing. You can you imagine how much shipping and handling would cost from Thailand?

All you Lost fans listen up: J.J. Abram has a new show coming out on Fox called Fringe. To me it looks like another mind trip of weird, pointless, and never ending plot twist. Additionally, I think it looks like a rip of the X-Files. I'm willing to guess that it takes 14 episodes to figure out that there's no cure for the mutant virus and that the world is going to end by some insane theory or physiological force? Maybe another invisible force field but this time in Boston? What is it with J.J. Abram's fascination with plane crashes?

I have no idea what www.vbs.tv is but they have amazing documentaries about some extremely interesting and hard to know stuff, such as the drug trade in Lebanon and Columbia (Oh yeah I forgot North Korea). Well the documentary I watched was about reporter Shane Smith 'sneaking' into North Korea. He spends what seems to be about a week or so in North Korea. I thought this documentary was great. I've always been so fascinated with the whole 1984 society of North Korea. Below is a brief synopsis of the documentary:

Getting into North Korea was one of the hardest and weirdest processes VBS has ever dealt with. After we went back and forth with their representatives for months, they finally said they were going to allow 16 journalists into the country to cover the Arirang Mass Games in Pyongyang. Then, ten days before we were supposed to go, they said, “No, nobody can come.” Then they said, “OK, OK, you can come. But only as tourists.” We had no idea what that was supposed to mean. They already knew we were journalists, and over there if you get caught being a journalist when you’re supposed to be a tourist you go to jail. We don’t like jail. And we’re willing to bet we’d hate jail in North Korea.

I have attached the first three episodes of 14 (each are about 4 to 5 minutes long). If you fancy watching more I've attached the link to the website below.

Breaking news: comic book adaptations are the new trend in Hollywood. Lets just name of a few: Spider Man I,II,III, X-Men I,II,III, Ghost Rider, Iron-Man, Punisher, Sin City, Dare Devil, Hulk, Fantastic Four I/II, and Batman. The fact that I'm complaining is because Hollywood has taken the shock and awe out of the surprise of a comic book adaptation. Now and days you just pray that the comic book movie doesn't turn out to be like Dare Devil or Ghost Rider.

However, looking towards the future, another wave of comic book adaptations will be coming to theaters in late 2008 and sometime in 2009. Here are few to keep your eyes out for:

Starring and directed by Ben Stiller, Tropic Thunder, has the potential to be another Zoolander with a strong supporting cast of Robert Downey Jr., Jack Black, and Brandon T. Jackson.

The movie is centered around a bunch of prima donna actors that are high maintenance due to their Hollywood celebrity status. When filming for their new movie seems to be lacking depth and teamwork due to their egos, Nick Nolte, whom seems to be a crazed Nam vet suggests to actually send the cast to the jungle/ a real-life war zone.

Watch the R-rated trailer below. Apparently Tom Cruise makes a cameo.

If you haven't heard M. Night Shyamalan has a new movie coming out called The Happening, starting Mark Wahlberg. Wahlberg plays a high school science teacher who takes his family on a run with a neuro-toxin is released in the U.S. causing people to do weird crazy things.

Apparently, this movie is getting absolutely killed by critics and reviewers. Everyone has been waiting for M. Night Shyamalan to step up to the plate and deliver another home run movie, such as Six Sense. Maybe give himself a chance to actually redeem his directing resume. In his defense, I was a huge fan of The Village. Everyone I know didn't like it at all and thought the big 'twist' was stupid. However, I thought it was a creative and cool idea. But I must admit his other movies, particularly Lady in the Water and Signs were really bad. Here is what one movie critic wrote of the movie:

"The Happening" is a terrible, terrible movie. I mean, it's bad on an epic scale. It's so bad that I can't possibly tell you how bad it is without understating the point or making it sound like I'm picking on the film...

The most obvious fault in "The Happening" is the acting -- in particular Wahlberg's performance. I'm saying this with no hyperbole, but Wahlberg might very well give the worst performance I've ever seen in anything. He's that bad. His character is a passive aggressive high-school teacher and each line in delivered with nasally whines that sound like some strange parody. As bad as the rest of the movie is, Wahlberg is the part that the internet is going to eat alive. But is it really his fault? Wahlberg's proven himself with "I (Heart) Huckabees" and his amazing turn in "The Departed". I can't help but feel that Shyamalan -- intentionally or otherwise -- is ultimately to blame for forcing some truly awful line readings.

If you want to read more of the review click here. However, let me warn you there are some major plot spoilers in it. Below is a preview of the movie. I agree Mark Wahlberg's performance from this trailer seems horrible.

Well I guess I didn't get the memo. The new The Incredible Hulk movie is a sequel to the first Hulk. Well I'll be damned. The preview (below) seems almost identical to the preview of Hulk.

A new TV spot of the Batman: Dark Knight appeared while Survivor was airing. I must admit I'm getting a little tired and bored of cising this movie. So barring any huge monsterist leaks, from here on, I will be posting no more Dark Knight postings.

Labels: Movies

Antwan Barnes has the potential to be the next Ray Lewis or maybe Terrel Suggs. Barnes, a 4th round draft pick from Florida International, is posed to have a huge impact this year. In 2007, he played in 14 games recording 30 tackles, two sacks, and one force fumble. Not amazing or outstanding but this guy is the blue-chip mold of a Raven. Strong, power hitter, and in your face type football player.

The potential Barnes is displaying could lead to a versatile situational role. He's lined up everywhere from outside linebacker to defensive end and even safety in a few schemes. During the majority of his snaps, Barnes has been playing Suggs' rush end spot with the unsigned franchise player absent from practice due to a contract dispute. There have been a lot more pure standup linebacker repetitions for Barnes than last season when he primarily operated as an undersized down lineman as a situational rusher in the sub package

Barnes was immortalized on YouTube last summer during a preseason game when he devastated unsuspecting Philadelphia Eagles punter Sav Rocca with a forearm shiver and right shoulder, popping the helmet off the 6-4, 265-pound former Austrailian rules standout (See Below).

Following that huge hit last August, Barnes has gotten even bigger. A rigorous weightlifting program has bulked him up 15 pounds. Barnes is up to 6-foot-1, 255 pounds while maintaining his 4.5 speed.

I must admit this wasn't a big hit per se but more like a cheap hit. Who cares though because it was against an Eagle!

LT during the AFC 2008 Champison Lost to New England. Note him wearing the helmet while on the bench :(


Yeah I know this is rather late but I just read a recent interview with LaDainian Tomlinson (see link above). In this interview, LT defines his boyish on the field whining.

Question: In each of the past two seasons, you’ve had moments that seemed uncharacteristic for you: displaying anger at the end of the loss to New England in the playoffs in January 2007 and exchanging heated words with quarterback Philip Rivers during the regular season game against the Tennessee Titans last season. What’s happening with that?

Tomlinson: I think it’s fair to say that (I’ve been more emotional) because you start to taste it. Before, when we weren’t winning and we couldn’t taste even getting to the playoffs, it was different. You were just hoping to get to the playoffs. … Now, it’s different. … You’re expected to win games in the regular season, so getting to the playoffs is not an issue or a factor that we’re striving to do.

Right now, we’re so close and we’re in the playoffs with a chance to win (the Super Bowl), so of course emotions are going to come out because you know every opportunity you have is not always going to be there. So you want to take advantage of every opportunity you have.

Question: Do you feel like you have to control your emotions more?

Tomlinson: I never focus on if I’m showing too much emotion or not. To the media and the people there’s a no-win situation. At times when you do show a lot of emotion it’s, “Oh he’s showing too much emotion.” Or like in the New England (playoff) game (when I couldn’t play), “Oh, he’s not showing any emotion, he kept his helmet off.” So you can’t really win with that and I just focus that whatever way it comes out, that’s how it comes out and that’s my emotion in that situation.

That’s the way I deal with it. But it would be wrong for a person not to show his emotions because this is an emotional game. It’s something that drives people crazy, athletes just trying to win and you go through so many ups and downs that sometimes you are just going to want to just scream and get it out.

lil Dunn: Well Mr. Tomlinson, yes we know you want to win and finally beat the Patriots. But common son... do you think salking on the sidelines with your helmet on is going to "win" games? No. How about being a team player and supporting your teammates. Wow, that's a good idea! How about study the defensive line and formations to possibly relay this information to your teammates? Sounds like a good idea to me. Instead of being a little immature child and doing this and that with your emotions all the time, start taking some leadership qualities and think about supporting your teammates.

According to NFL.com, offensive coordinator Cam Cameron and the Ravens have big plans for McGahee in 2008. The plans? Build the offensive around McGahee, whom they expect to carry the bulk of the offensive load.

I love this idea. I was really really excited when the Ravens traded for McGahee two years ago. I thought it was about time for a fresh and younger pair of legs. Ones that don't only run straight up the middle. Ones that have the ability to cut to the outside. In 2007, his first year with the Ravens, he fourth in the AFC in rushing with 1,207 yards and seven touchdowns and selected to the Pro Bowl (as an alternate). However, with these years QB situation and dilemma, expect the ball to be in McGahee's hands more often.

Cam Cameron, who helped transform LaDainian Tomlinson into a multi-purpose all-star running back, is planning on installing similar plays. Plays that will allow for McGahee to get more carries and catches in the back field.

(G.I. Jone - 2007) (Street Fighter - 1994)

In case you haven't heard, they are making a G.I. Joe movie. Stephen Sommers is directing it. You probably remember him right? His directing resume is amazing: Deep Risings, The Mummy, The Mummy Returns, and Van Helsing.

Well anyways, G.I. Joe is starring Dennis Quaid as General Hawk and thankfully Sienna Miller even though she's a horrible actress. I don't know. I have this odd feeling that G.I. Joe is going to turn out to be another Street Fighter type movie. Anyhow, there are some new released photos below.


Christopher Eccleston star as Destro

Sienna Miller star as The Baroness

Rachel Nichols as G.I. Joe's Scarlett


Channing Tatum star as Duke


Marlon Wayans star as Ripcord

This is going to be something new for me. I'm going to try to post the most exciting and hopefully current football (soccer) news. Since it's almost European football's equivalent to the NFL's off-season and free agent signs. I will post a few news clips and rumors that will excite football fans from both sides of the pond.


Evidence that Americans some how always manage to screw things up: (American owners: Tom Hicks (left) and George Gillett)

A mere 15 months ago, NHL owners George Gillett (Montreal Canadiens) and Tom Hicks (Dallas Stars, plus Texas Rangers) bought the Liverpool soccer club for a widely reported $435 million and won hosannas for their greet-the-people friendliness. They shook fans' hands at Liverpool's Anfield stadium and proclaimed its stunning din "like nothing I've ever heard or felt," in Gillett's words. Since then the new owners have left skid marks in four directions. Georgey got peeved at Tommy. Georgey said he wanted to sell his half to those people from Dubai, but Tommy said Georgey couldn't sell without Tommy. Tommy said he'd buy from Georgey, but Georgey said he wouldn't sell to Tommy. The 15-month saga of two American owners has beset venerable Liverpool soccer, the most successful club in English history and one of the foremost clubs on the planet, and it has aggrieved a fan base that may know no earthly peer in feeling a team in its very bloodstream. LA Times


Barcelona making moves for Fabregas: Barcelona will bid bid for Arsenal's Spanish midfielder Cesc Fabregas and may offer Samuel Eto'o, Deco, Eidur Gudjohnsen or former Gunner Thierry Henry in a part-exchange deal, reckons the Daily Star. Source

If this happens I swear to some one I will flip out. I will be extremely pissed if Arsenal fails to keep him in North London! So mad I might flip out like Fabregas does in this clip:






** He really is getting a TV show. A one time special airing mid-May on SkyTv(?)**

Ballack is staying in Chelesa:

Michael Ballack is set to be awarded with a new three-year contract at Chelsea after an outstanding season for the English Premier League club, The Times daily reported on Wednesday. The Germany captain Ballack, 31, will be asked to stay until 2011 at Stamford Bridge, to where he moved in 2006 on a free transfer from Bayern Munich. His original contract runs until 2009 and talks on the new deal are set for after the season. Source


Arsenal's future looking bleak if Wenger can't fix holes in the armor:

Arsenal's season had flirted with glory for so long it seems perverse that Arsène Wenger must consider the summer ahead with a growing sense of frustration rather than any satisfaction. His team had carried all before them at times, the combination of the scintillating and the exhilarating threatening to yield a Premier League title and the European Cup. A lack of depth to his squad undermined those aspirations at the last. Now the fear nags that this set-up is to be stripped when it needs to be strengthened in the weeks to come. the Guardian

Ronaldo as bad taste in women:

Two of the three cross-dressing prostitutes involved in the scandal with Ronaldo have admitted lying about having sex and using drugs with the AC Milan striker.
