07/03/09: Public Enemies
This contains details of the movie and in such is considered spoilerish. I hate spoilers myself so this is your warning to stop reading.
So I went and took my 11 year old nephew with me to see Public Enemies. I know some people may thing a 11 year old is too young to see this but he dressed up as a 30's gangster for Halloween last year and he completely wanted to see this and I saw no issue with it. I think people shelter kids too much these days, and in turn they are sometimes bombarded and not ready for the real world when they are older. There was one scene in which I told him to cover his eyes but they did not really show anything (John Dillinger and his gal were in bed but nothing was really shown, but just as a precaution I had him cover his eyes).
Now let me say Johnny Depp was perfect for this role. You need someone whom you want to be bad, and like them being bad. You want to like them even though they are stealing thousands of dollars and shooting people up left and right. Although John Dillinger does not seem like he wants to kill anyone, he just wants to rob banks, but he's not gonna lay down and get arrested or shot, so shooting is a must.
Now let me say the first surprise in this movie is that soon to be G.I. Joe himself, Channing Tatum makes a appearance in this movie as Pretty Boy Floyd. I had not seen that he was going to be in this movie, although it was a brief seen, it was still cool to see.
Anyways, John Dillinger was a ballsy bank robber whom the public had no problem with. Christian Bale as Melvin Purvis was awesome, he is the law man put in charge in catching the original Public Enemy #1. He plays the role of the good guy in such a way that you want him to fail in catching the bad guy. Bale does a excellent job in making you hate Purvis. There are many people your gonna hate in this movie whom are not the 'bad guys.'
Before seeing the movie I read over the FBI's John Dillinger's record so I knew how it would end, but that did not keep me from going to see it. You can also go to the Official John Dillinger website or the Public Enemies website to read more about the real Dillinger if you like. I think that Dillinger got screwed over and it was the system who turned him into the man he ended up becoming, well that and his father. He was beaten as a child, his mother died when he was 3, and the courts gave him something like 20 years when he was about 22, for a $50 dollar crime. That was insane and retarded, no wonder he became a criminal. He was released after 9 years.
If you like the Godfather or those types of films, or perhaps Gangster documentaries on A&E you will or should like this movie. This movie has awesome beautiful historical cars, the 'old movies' classy feel to it. You get lots of shooting, dust, and blood in this movie. The FBI and police are made fools of by John Dillinger, and you root for the bad guy. It was an awesome movie.
If current technology and the types of movies and tv we have now existed back then, that perhaps would be the era I'd like to live in for a while.

06/18/09: Melissa Gilbert's - Prairie Tale A Memoir
WELL moving on, those of you who've seen Little House would know that Shannon came on the show in the last season as Almanzo and Laura's live in niece after her father dies. Well according to Melissa, Shannon would follow her around and ask what make-up she wore, what jeans she liked better, what jewelry she liked, etc. Melissa say's that Shannon told her she wanted to be just like her when she grew up, although Melissa was just 18. WELL years later when Melissa was getting back together with her first husband Bo Brinkman she found out that he had a once night stand with Shannon. EEWWW. She was like playing her daughter at one point. BUT no that's not the tipping point that was like OMG. The year that Michael Landon passed away Melissa was narrating a Tribute to him at the Emmys, and when she came off stage she saw Shannon sitting with Luke Perry and Shannon tried to give her a hug. Melissa pushed her away and told her, "I don't think so." Well according to Melissa Shannon looked surprised, and Melissa then said, "I know, I know what you did with my husband." And well here is the kicker, Shannon looked her square in the eye and said, "I told you that when I grew up I wanted to be just like you."
DAMN. Melissa says after Shannon said that, she hurried away because it was just too Single White Female for her taste. But yeah, DAMN. It's hard to defend Shannon on that one. DAMN.

05/15/09: HAHAHA Nick Canon think's he's grown up!
Nick Canon will always be a joke to me, and to read the blog post that is now deleted from his blog, but you can still read >HERE< is hilarious, because he thinks he can call Eminem out. LOL, your nowhere near Eminem.

05/12/09: One Tree Hill - Lucas and Peyton Out?
1) Peyton does die, leaving Lucas as a only parent just like his mom, so kind of a full circle type of thing, which I think is very possible, and the description for next weeks ep is that Karen makes a surprise visit to Lucas and Peyton... I think if Peyton does die, Lucas and his baby will leave OTH with his mom, therefore writing him and Peyton out of the show.
2) If there is another season (and just becasue it says season finale does not mean there will be another season, just that it hasn't been decided yet or at least I don't think it has), it will be a Naley centered ep with Jaime (which the wedding and the whole dog leash was hilarious).
NOW if its true that OTH was taken over by some new guy and wanted CMM and Hilary out, possibility is that they just dont want to work with CMM (lets face it, we've read things that point to CMM not being such a nice guy, and no its not bashing but just life...
I've read things that CMM is not such a great guy, but I have read things where he has been nice to some people, but I also keep in mind how he cheated on Sophia... but anyways if the bad attitude, or what not is true perhaps they wanted to let him go, and in doing so had to let Hilary go.
Now its hard to think of CMM being a jerk, because I myself would not like to believe that, SO I am hoping that video CMM leaked is not true, but if it is way to stick it to the studio, fans will hate the studio... but if its not true and he will be back for and if there is another season I would like to see him struggle as a only father, to see and experience what his mother did, because Peyton has just been a annoying character all along IMO. And please no bashing me for this, its just how I feel. Its always been poor peyton this or that, life's tough, deal. She stole Lucas from Brooke not once but twice, but...
No one wants to remember what a bitca Peyton was for what she did, and it bugs me that people maker her out to be some sort of victim. I think the show would be better without Peyton because of the storylines that could come out from losing her. So storywise it could be a really good move.

04/28/09: XBOX's stolen, Wolverine Premiere
Thur, huge fight with my sister, she's evil, manipulative, and a liar. AND my bird Data died. Fri. decided to try and win tickets for Wolverine premiere where FOX, HARKINS, and TEMPE POLICE screwed a lot of people out of a fair chance to win. Line was not to start til 9pm flat. Started at 7pm which I was there but eating right next door. STILL won tickets thanks to online contest. Found out Sat. felt maybe things were turning better... got home Sat night to find my XBOX360 and original XBOX stolen from my room... I got some suspects but cant prove it... but they are close to me... ANGERS ME that there is nothing I can do. AND they stole the Wanted Weapons of Fate I rented from Gamefly, so now I'll have to repay that. Bitches. Also took my awesome Logitech Black Wireless controller for OG XBOX. *Sigh*
Just got home from the Premiere. I did not get any pictures because they said NO CAMERAS ALLOWED INSIDE and NO WHERE TO CHECK IT IN, would have to get out of line and take them to the car, would have got horrible seats. SO I did not take it... WELL THEY DID HAVE A DAMN CHECKIN!!! GRR!! Gonna have to relay on images others took.
DId get Hugh Jackman, Liev Schreiber, Taylor Kitsch, and Will. I. Am's autographs, Ryan Reynolds ignored my side of the red carpet, and the girl IGNORED EVERYONE on the carpet.
So yeah, one hell of a last 5 days. Anyone want to help me replace my stuff?

04/25/09: Tempe Market Place Wolverine Ticket Chaos
Tempe police said too many people were blocking and wanted the line started early, opened 2 doors where the line would be and told everyone to "run" which they did and injured 2 girls WHO Harkins did not care nor feel they should be given tickets. They decieded to give tickets to the stupid people who did not follow the rules and ignore and tell those who did, "um, sorry." I'll be posting a few pictures I took.
It was so out of hand and people who worked for the mall were being really stupid and wanted those not inline to leave and people were getting angry, wanting to riot... and the news station, CBS 5, Fox 10, all the news there seemed to want to COVER UP what was happnening and make Tempe Market place look good, I guess its to make it look as if it went all smoothly so not to scare of the Hollywood people. So I did not stay there all night to win tickets, I went to a friends house, had some Taco Bell, watched a movie, and went t sleep a bit after 5am.
People need to know what happened last night, and not ignore the fact Tempe police not only started a panic run, they interfered with the contest and screwed over a lot of people as well as Fox. Fox wanted something that looked "good" for the news, so a panic run seemed to be the thing they wanted. There was people arriving from as far as Queen's Creek, and Apache Junction for a chance to win, and they did not even have a chance even though they arrived an hour before the line was SUPPOSED to start. I'll post images of people from Harkins who were not being nice, or seem to give a damn to those who got screwed later tonight as I am not even home yet, still at friends house.
