Babe of the week 11/30 - 12/06/08

The now hottest mom in hollywood, Jessica Alba. Only if she had any movies that were as good as she looked. Outside of Sin City, the rest are all pretty much blah.

Been a while

Hey guys! I know I havent posted anything in a while. Ive had a lot going on at work and havent really been "in the mood" so to speak to actually sit down and type. Im off work all of this upcoming week and Im planning on playing some World of Warcraft. I know that is a surprise to you guys. Actually though, Ive not been playing, taking a break for a few weeks. I did get the new expansion and I have journeyed my character to the shores of Northrend, but besides that, I havent done anything. My Titans are still undefeated and face another tough team tomorrow in the New York Jets. The Tennessee Volunteers shocked probably the entire world and won a game against Vanderbilt of all people. It just goes to show you how messed up the college football world is. We lose to Wyoming a couple of weeks ago, but we somehow manage to win against a far better team. My hope now is that we can get past Kentucky next week and keep the NCAA record longest winning streak alive.

The beautiful Tara Reid, thankfully not looking drunk or strung out in this picture.

Another win for the series...

I have to be honest, Im not really a James Bond fan. I havent seen many movies if the series, but I can say that I like most of the ones that I have seen. I was talked into seeing Casino Royale by a pal back when it arrived in theaters and I went in thinking it will be all right but not great. Fortuantely I was wrong, Casino Royale rocked. Quantum of Solace continues the tradition and is quickly setting the bar on what this "reimagining" of the Bond series will be like. Gone are the cheesy one liners, goofy villains, crazy out of this world contraptions, all replace with what made James Bond popular to begin with, lots of high speed action, hot women and great espionage and intrigue. Quantum of Solace sets up after Casino with Bond looking into the company Vesper (the love interest from Casino Royale) worked for. What he finds is just the opening into a world wide organization that has as of yet remained a mystery to the world's intelligence agencies. In the meantime, Bond is learning to deal with the death of Vesper and how it affects him. While purists may like the older Bond fims better, I hope Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace are just the first steps in a reinvigorated James Bond franchise. I give Quantum of Solace a score on the Heath-scale of 7 out of 10.

Pic of the week

Im sorry to say but Pic of the week has died. I seriously like having it on here but it just got too time consuming looking for pics to put up here. I may add pics down the line that I find amusing but no more weekly ones, sorry guys. Although, I may find something to replace it with.

Babe of the Week 11/16 - 11/22/08

The very beautiful Keira Knightley.

Finally!

Somethings are simply beyond the scope of our understanding. What are on the other sides of black holes? How does life thrive deep in the oceans where there is no light or heat? How does Renee Zelweger keep ending up on World's sexiest women lists? There are things we are just never meant to know. One of these questions is why when a movie is released in theaters, why are some only released in certain areas and some arent? One of the films I have been looking forward to this year is RocknRolla. Directed by Guy Ritchie, who also directed 2 of my favorite films; Lock, Stock and two Smoking Barrels and Snatch. RocknRolla was released the first week in October but only in the "big" markets like New York and Los Angeles. On Halloween weekend it was released everywhere else except for one very important place, HERE! No theatre in Upper East Tennessee had this film. The closest one was in Knoxville and it was only in ONE theatre there! WHY? This is something I just couldnt figure out. Well, a friend and I decided to make the trip. Not only for the film, but just to do soemthing different instead of just running around Johnson City like we do every weekend. Fortunately we had a great time, found probably the worlds best Used Book and Cd store and got to see a great movie. If you have seen A Guy Ritchie movie then you should already know what kind of movie this was going to be, especially if you have seen Snatch. RocknRolla takes quite a few inspirations from Snatch including a priceless artifact that keeps changing hands among a select group of criminals and Russians who are extremely hard to kill. While his first two movies featured many of the same cast, Guy Ritchie used alomst an entirely new cast for RocknRolla including Thandie Newton, Tom Wilkinson and Gerard Butler, who all did oustanding jobs acting in this film. I have been trying to find a way to summarize this film but I seriously dont think I can. It had lots of action, humor and great characters. If you liked Snatch at all, this film is right up your alley. I give RocknRolla, on the Heath Scale a score of 9 out of 10.

In my serious honest opinion, Christina Aguilera is the best singer of our generation. There is no one who even comes close to her talent. Plus shes very hot when she doesnt cover her self up in so much make up that you wonder if she has a side job with Barnum and Bailey.

A world of change, this time more serious

Yea, its been a while since I have posted on here. Got a few questions why I have not said anything about the elections or the ousting of Philip Fulmer as head coach of the Tennessee Vols. As far as the elections go, I am not a fan of Obama, neither am I a fan of John McCain. I really didnt care who was elected as long as Bush is gone. Anything has to be better than the last few years.
Seeing Fulmer step down as the head coach is something I thought I would never see. I sure wanted it to happen, but it just seemed no matter how bad we did, the only certain thing was that he would be back. Now I just hope we can get a good coach who can come in and revitalize this program and soon return us to where we belong and that at the top of the SEC. As I have stated before, I am not a big fan of change but sometimes, it just needs to happen.

A step in the right direction

Finally, After two weeks of mediocre movies, I got to see a pretty good film. Zack and Miri Make a porno is pretty much what the title says it is. Kinda like Snakes on a Plane, the title gets straight to the point. Directed by fanboy director Kevin Smith, two life long friends played by Judd Apatow film vets Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks, who also live together but are not together, are way behind on their bills. After having thier utilities turned off they decide the only way to get the money they need is to shoot a prnographic film that they can sell tho their former class mates. Bascially from there is the pattern for every comedic movie from hollywood where the main characters strive to achive something monumentous. They set up, something goes wrong, they almost give up, a miraculous solution presents itself and they are finally able to do what they need to do. Over the course of filming, our two main characters finally, after knowing each other for their entire lives and living together for who knows how many years, realize that they love each other. Zack and Miri does have some language and a few scenes of questionable content but in the end is a predictable and sweet movie that has as many endearing moments as it does laugh out loud moments. On the Heath Scale, I give Zack and Miri make a porno a score of 6.5 out of 10.
