All the world's a stage...
And all the men and women merely players...
They have their exits and their entrances...
And one man in his time plays many parts, his acts being seven
ages.

...And I Thought We Were Done

It’s pretty clear by now that anyone who’s anyone has a twitter account {it's the best why to find out what’s going on in the world}. How else do you think I found out about another Fast and Furious coming out??? Actor and singer Tyrese Gibson is not afraid to share with his fans his upcoming projects. Besides working on Transformers 3, he can add Fast and the Furious, which will actually be called Fast 5, to his belt.

Now, in the beginning I was a little perturbed about a 5th fast and furious. For those who don’t remember Fast and Furious, the 2009 version ended the perfect way. Why would you want to mess with fate? But when I found out that Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Tyrese Gibson, and Ludacris are all starring in part 5, I started to feel differently towards this new production. I'm still confused as to why Tyrese and Ludacris are back in the picture.

According to IMDB Dwayne Johnson {the Rock} will be playing the detective/ex-bounty hunter that’s after Dom and Brain.

My only plea is, if their going to do it, do it right. I don’t want to see Letty popping back into the picture or that other guy, Han Lue {from Tokyo Drift} the last time I watched the movie he died at the end.

I hope Justin Lin and his team know what their doing... LOL

upcoming features



I'm starting to think 2010 will be a good year for Hollywood in my eyes. To my surprise George Clooney will be gracing us with his pressence on the big screen again. Stepping away from the love song and drives head first into the action with his new movie The American.

The American {release Sept 1, 2010} is simply about an assassin on his last mission in Italy. I'm excited...why? Because I love Mr. Clooney, he is hot! Oh yeah, he's acting not that bad either. Lol

Now, you remember Ben Afflek right? Casey Afflek brother? The guy that everyone says can't act? Well he's coming out with a new production called The Town and it looks good. Now I never had a problem with Ben Affleks' acting but I do think he's better behind the scenes. The Town {release Sept 10, 2010}, set in Boston, is about a bank robber who falls for a bank manager him and his crew kidnapped. Based off the previews the credits might just fall in love with Mr. Afflek.

the saga continues...

I finally got my chance to see Eclipse {the wait has been long over due}!

First let me say that I was highly impressed. Out of all the books, eclipse is my least favorite. Now don’t get me wrong, the book was good but it can’t hold a candle to any of the other 3 books {sorry}

At this moment I am going to be jumping around so please bear with me....

The scenes were Victoria goes in for the kill with Riley is horrible. I’m being honest, I hated it! I could barely tell if she bit or scratched Riley. I understand that vampires are so fast that you can’t see them {until they want you to} but we all knew it was Victoria. They could have showed her bright red hair or something.

Let me just say… its time to get some new teams going. Like team Alicia, did you see her when they were practicing for the war? She is the bomb! Don’t forget she can throw a pretty good party. And team Jasper, come to find out he actually talks. Plus Jasper and Alicia are a way cooler couple then Edward and Bella {just my opinion}. Now, let’s not forget about Emmitt, the Cullen brother that gets down played, he was looking really good in Eclipse.



Now I really love the fact that they’d showed how out of control the baby vampires where. Something you really don’t get a chance to see in the book. Another plus was having Bella sphere herself to save Edward just like one of the Quileute women did for her husband that was a werewolf. Do you remember this scene? Jacob took Bella to hear their tribe story and the woman stabbed herself so the blood would distract the vampire? Well yeah… Edward was about to be destroyed by Riley & Victoria and Bella slit her risk to save him… it was so romantic.

Speaking of romance, the way Edward proposed to Bella was so sweet… but anyway… the back and forth between Edward and Jacob was really getting on my nerves.

I knew it was coming {based on the book} but to see it on screen was annoying. Like pick a side and stick with it already, gosh! I must say Eclipse did give me a new found respect for Edward. I actually saw how he truly loved Bella and would do anything for her. I even consisted to move to team Edward {only for a split second}.

If you’d noticed I haven’t commented on Kristen Stewarts acting… surprisingly she didn’t get on my nerves, I actually enjoyed her. Maybe she’s growing on me :-/

All in all, another two thumbs up for the Twilight saga… Can’t wait for Breaking Dawn to come out, even though their turning it into a 2 part film {something I’m not happy about} but we can talk about that later. You can check for me on #teamJacob & #teamCullenfamily

.... And I'm Back....

Hello to all my cyber freaks and google geeks... its been awhile :-) So I just got home from seeing Eclipse and I must admit it didn't let me down the way I thought it would {we'll get into that later}. But what inspired me to blog again were the previews for upcoming films. I must say that Hollywood has really impressed me! I can't wait to see the following:

RED {starring Bruce Willis, Mary-Louise Parker, Morgan Freeman, John Malkovich, & Helen Mirren} is a film about retired CIA agents who find themselves getting back into the game. Why wouldn't you want to see it? Beside the fact that there will be excessive violence: fighting guns and blood... you get to see Helen Mirren, Morgan Freeman and Bruce Willis on the screen together. How awesome is that?

CHARLIE ST.CLOUD {starring Zac Efron, Amanda Crew, Ray Liotta} is a film about a young sailor who loses his brother in a car accident but manages to have contact with him long after his death. Let me just state that a flood of emotion came over me while watching the preview, I wanted to cry.

NARNIA: THE VOYAGE OF THE DAWN TREADER starring the usual... what can I say I'm a sucker for GOOD sagas.

THE KIDS ARE JUST all RIGHT { starring Julianne Moore, Annette Bening, and Mark Ruffalo} is a film about a lesbian couple who goes to a sperm bank to conceive their children. One way or the other the children get in contact with their quote on quote sperm donor and end up building a relationship. I honestly believe this film will be the most talked about. It touches on so many issues going on in today’s society: the un-conservative family. A gay and lesbian couple raising children who are adopted or artificially inseminated… I can see the media frenzy building up now. And, not to mention a couple of awards.

EASY A {starring Emma Stone and Amanda Bynes} is a film about a high school student, I think, that pretends to have sex with guys to make them look good to the public. It starts off as a favor for a friend but turns into a business. Meanwhile rumors are being spread that she's a whore but instead of telling people the truth she embraces the rumors being speard about her... now, how many people have the power to do that? It might not sound like a good movie but its Emma Stone, she’s funny as hell.

All -n- all these upcoming months are looking good for Hollywood... at least in my eyes!
