With the completion of the Riddick trilogy where does Vin go for his non F&F films to work on? F&F 7 is getting fast tracked to be out next year but you have to think that part 8 won't be out till at least 2016 so that leaves a lot of down time in his work schedule.
Kind of hope he does some more smaller budget movies and even some supporting roles. I thought he was good in Boiler Room and Knockaround Guys.
Well he's doing Guardians or something with Marvel next.

Miley Cyrus/UFC 164 parody clip that's gone viral:
Thought that expression they threw in for Goldberg at the end was hilarious.

Looks like Fast 7 is going to give Expendables 3 a run for its money.
Anyway, I'm thankful for the Fast franchise since it's probably the only reason we are getting another Riddick film, which I'm seeing Tuesday and really excited about.

Got finished with D. Grayman. Had a lot of potential, but the show is a real disappointment. Know their hands were tied because the manga-ka was sick and that caused it to get delayed and all. But the show moves at a snail's pace.
-
So now it appears they are setting up Chael Sonnen vs. Rashad Evans. Oddly, the people who hated the Sonnen vs. Phil Davis fight think this is a great fight. I think it stinks just as much (esp. after Rashad's last few fights).
Well Rashad Evans is a bigger name, and Evans also beat Phil Davis and is a former champion so there's that.

I'm in the same boat with FS2 on TWC (no HD version either). I was going to cancel my package that gives me Fuel TV/FS2, then I realized that there's still some original programming and live fights on FS2.
But they said they are going to move all the prelims for the FS1 fights to FS1, so there's that at least (for people wanting it all to move to 1 channel).
I imagine the premiere of TUF will pop a decent rating at least since they've been hyping it up about as strongly as the debut FS1 card.

The way this was announced I figure its got to be more than just a VoiceOver job. They will want Spader to physically create part of the performance as well.
-
While it's probably tougher on the fighters, this fight along with Poirier/Zombie is why I like non-title main events getting five rounds.
-
Both fighters looked like they have stepped up their game since that fight, though I think Bendo more so which is why I picked him to win. I still see it being a close decision again though.
-
Ultimate Fighter hasn't even premiered. And I mean, there's your weekly UFC show right there.
-
They like to keep all that footage show exclusive to entice people to go to D23 or Comic-Con so they can see things like that.
-
Kyoryuger looks really cool and I like that they are doing a dinosaur theme again.
Love my Kamen Rider Wizard figuarts.

For this movie, I think getting bigger name actors for the critters is probably a smart move.
And since Thanos is hopefully going to have a bigger role, I'm curious if his actual actor is picked out. I still wouldn't be surprised if Benicio Del Toro is actually Thanos and this whole Collector thing is another Mandarin bait and switch. Or call it a Ducard/Ra's Al Ghul bait and switch.

Interesting Affleck quote from 2006:
"By playing a superhero in Daredevil, I have inoculated myself from ever playing another superhero," Affleck told the press at the London premiere of Hollywoodland. "Wearing a costume was a source of humiliation for me and something I wouldn't want to do again soon."
In Affleck's defense, since he made those comments in 2006, 8 years is pretty far away from soon. Also he didn't say he would NEVER do it again.
I think that was just a tough time for Affleck before he had really rebuilt his identity as an actor and built his identity as a director. But he had a stretch there where he was just doing bomb after bomb. Daredevil did moderately OK, but I'm sure all the criticism got to him. Plus that was the period he was with J-Lo and all that hysteria couldn't have been good for him mentally either.

LOL, Mr. Freeze on hard would probably make me break my PS3.
Honestly, I've had a ton of fun going through the game again though I thought parts of New Game+ were a little unbalanced. Getting all the gadgets right from the start made it even more playable. Getting through it made me feel like I can give hard a try as well, so why not.
-
It's going to be on TV first I think. It would be cool, but I doubt it would make a lot of money. As much as I hate the Bay movies, it's hard to deny that the way he makes them is what gives them appeal to a lot of dumb moviegoers.
-
Finally completed Arkham City on New Game+ which I was hoping to do before getting into Origins. New Game+ was pretty brutal especially since Catwoman can't do the disarm combo.
The Mr. Freeze boss fight was pretty unforgiving this time around. I just lucked into a couple attacks when I finally managed to beat him.
Two Face was easier once I realized I could narrow the armory down to two thugs. In the regular game it seemed like it would stay at 4 thugs no matter how many you take out. So it was weird to me that in plus they made Two Face really an easier predator room.

I know it's funny to laugh at how irrational fans are at casting decisions that turn out to be winners. I mean look at Daniel Craig as James Bond, now granted most of that hate came from soccer moms obsessed with Pierce Brosnan and too much time on their hands. At the same time, some of these casting decisions don't always turn out great either. Case in point, Van Wilder as Green Lantern. Was a total mis-casting.
And I mean, look at Halle Berry. She's an Academy Award-winner and she is one of the worst performers in the entire X-Men franchise. Even without Singer she seemed to get more annoying.

Overall I liked the Prime finale, but my overall problem was that the Beasts idea never really reached up to its full potential this season. Hopefully the Rise of the Predacons movie will fix that. But they basically made it another collectathon season with a big anti-climax in that they never did anything with the collectibles. My guess was they had more stuff in mind with the Predacons this season but they were hindered by the shorter season.
I liked that Wheeljack actually joined the team and his character got more developed this season. I liked that they ditched the Bumblebee can't talk garbage at the end.
Also, sometimes I think the show could've used a little extra ambient sound in places. Sometimes it just sounded like there was a lot of dead air. The transformers also could've used some vocal MAKEUP as Frank Welker puts it.

I think that cartoon is supposed to poke fun at the whimisical nature of internet movie snobbery and geek fandom, my friend.
To use the Daredevil analogy again, it's like when people were like, "Hey, The Green Mile is such a powerful movie. Why didn't Michael Clarke Duncan win the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor?" and then they were all, "That asshole from The Scorpion King is going to be Wilson Fisk in the Daredevil movie? THE KINGPIN ISN'T EVEN BLACK~!"
I think their anaolgy is rather apt.
Yeah, I think that's a bad analogy because I never read any reactions like that about Kingpin. Plus, Duncan's performance as Kingpin was terrible. I think Duncan was a good performer but to me he hardly was a good Wilson Fisk. To his credit, one of his better scenes was cut out of the movie and the whole movie itself was basically gutted.
-
I see what they are getting at but trying to connect Batman to Argo doesn't work IMHO. Good punchline, bad delivery.
-
Apparently, Dana tried to make Sonnen vs. Wandy for GSP vs. Hendricks but Wandy wants PPV points.
And then Wanderlei cut an ECW promo:
Taking a page out of Sonnen's book.

It troubles me they don't have a script ready for this.

I actually got to see Sacred Star of Milos in a theater out here in LA so that was pretty cool. The animation wasn't quite as good first FMA movie, but as a one-off filler adventure to the Brotherhood series it was fine.
