Fletcher Lives

Image
Kentucky Governor Fletcher used his God given power of creating pardons to help the people who were indicted in the Hiring practice cases. http://www.courier-journal.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20050830/NEWS0104/508300366 Comment: This guy is giving out pardons like candy. Hey, break the law and get a free pardon. Whatever happened to being held accountable for your actions? Fletcher got elected because he promised to end the corruption left behind by Governor Patton. Yet, we got rid of one crook from another one. Say what you want about Mr. Bush, he hasn’t done this yet. How can anyone vote for Fletcher now that this has come out? Obviously, by pardoning his underlings, he has focused all the attention toward himself. Moreover, this has given the Dems fuel to attack him on for months. The only thing I can see going his way is the fact people in this state are idiots, and don’t pay attention to news, unless it’s sport news. I hate Kentucky.

More Scary Movie (Part 4?)

Image
Head for the hills, Scary Movie 4 may also be in the works. http://www.moviehole.net/news/6178.html Comment: I’m not looking forward to another Scary Movie, being that the first one was funny and the rest suck, but I just hope they can convince Shannon Elizabeth come back to the franchise. Anyone that knows me is fully aware how much of a crush I have on this woman.

DS9 Review part 2

Image
Captain Sisko looks over the battle reports, as the fighters continue to attack only Cardassians vessel. Here’s his plan, Since the Dominion ships are manned by Genetically engineered soldiers, who are breed to follow orders, he only attacks the Cardassian ships, because they are an egotistical group people that don’t like the fact that small fighters are taking pot shots at them. Sisko knows that the Cardassian pride won’t let them stay in ranks. Once the Cardassian ships break ranks, the entire Federation fleet will run through the open hole in the Dominion fleet, where they will head for the Occupied DS9 station. I think this is an interesting tactic, because Sisko is using the differences between the combined forces of the Dominion/Cardassian fleet to his advantage. He knows that he’s outnumbered and can’t fight a fleet that big. So, he wants to pull the combined fleet apart. I’m sure he wouldn’t use this tactic, if the Klingons were by his side. But, with...

V for Vendetta Delayed

V for Vendetta Delayed (I wonder Why) http://www.calendarlive.com/movies/cl-et-vendetta30aug30,0,5377345.story?coll=cl-home-more-channels Comment: This movie is from a comic book by Alan Moore . I actually like the trailers for this movie, so I might check it out. However, there has been terrible buzz coming from this film. Alan Moore has stated that he doesn’t want anything to do with this film, and has parted all ties with DC comics, including WB (DC’s Parent company). (( The movie is based on an acclaimed graphic novel — but that book's author has called the screenplay "imbecilic" and wants nothing to do with the film .)) Then there are the London bombings, which also happen in the movie as well to contend with. It would be poor taste to release the film in November. Let’s not forget the replacement of the first star. Now, WB has stated that the long delay is because of FX work and post-production. This could be a spin by the studio. ...

Scream 4 (Why?) http://www.moviehole.net/news/6175.html Comment: Why is there talk of a Scream 4 movie? The last one sucked, actually only the first one was good. Stop trying to bring back dead franchises

Spike movie, maybe (Not Spike Lee)

Image
Angel/Buffy Spin off movie, might be in the works http://www.moviehole.net/news/6146.html Comment: The character of Spike from Buffy and Angel appears to be getting his own movie soon. Not a huge Buffy fan (I do watch the show on FX every few months), I always found Spike to be an interesting character.

Star Trek DS9, Sacrifice of Angels, Part 1

Image
I figured I could do a visual review of one of DS9’s best episodes, Sacrifice of Angels . SOA was one the first episode that had huge production values. It was last part of six part episode about the evil Dominion taking over the station DS9. Star Fleet is at war with the Dominion. Captain Sisko takes two fleets and goes out to take back his station, but the Klingons refuse to add their forces to the huge fleet, so Sisko sends Commander Worf to convince them to help in this important battle. Here is what Trekpulse.com says With Sisko in command of the Defiant, the Federation fleet reaches the Dominion lines standing between it and DS9. On the station, Quark and Ziyal break out Rom, Kira, Jake and Leeta from prison. As Odo joins forces with his former comrades, Rom and Kira hurry to cut off power to the weapons array but are too late.
Image
Sisko tries to convince the fleet top brass that they must take back the space station, because the Cardassians (Dominion allies) figured out a way to deactivate the mines around the wormhole. Sisko’s knows that a large fleet of Dominion ships are waiting to reinforce the fleet already on this side of the Galaxy. The Admirals agree and Sisko has his fleet, but the Klingons haven’t joined this major battle, so he knows that they could lose to Dominion’s bigger Armanda.
Image
The Federation fleet meets up a bigger fleet of Dominion and Cardassians ships. The two fleets stand face-to-face waiting for the first one to make their move. I found this shot to be impressive for a TV budget. Thanks to CGI they were able to pull this shot off, very cool shot. David Bell’s music works well here. __________________________________________________________ This is a close up view of a Cardassian warship. Sisko’s knows the fleet is made up of both Cardassians and Dominions. He will use this to his advantage. ________________________________________________ Look at how dense the Dominion fleet is. They stay in their positions and wait for the Federation ships to attempt to break through their lines. ____________________________________________ This is where the Federation fighter ships pull up in front of the larger ships, holding their position. This is an interesting tactic, using your smaller ships as the first offensive weapons. Think ...

More reasons to hate gas stations

Image
I went to a gas station around my part of town. I pulled up to the pump and went inside. I stood in a short line for a about a minute. On the right register, an old crusty, (Who had smoked too many cigarettes) lady stood there helping a customer. On the right register, there was a skinny dork/idiot man. The guy called me up next. Placing my money on the counter, I said, “I want 6 dollars on pump 15.” The cashier gave me a perplexed look, and looked down at his computer screen. He slowly opened his mouth, “Are you sure you’re on pump 15?” At first, I was certain, but I began to doubt myself. Maybe, I was incorrect and I picked the wrong number. I peered out the front window, trying to see the number. Of course, a big-ass company van obscured my view of my car and the pump number. “I think it was 15, I could be wrong.” This was when the old dirty woman decided to add her stupid two cents. She looked over at her counterpart. “That’s why they hav...

Funk Drunk

Drunken People are Stupid I was at a get-together Saturday, somewhere in the South-end of Louisville. I went there with some of my friends. We hung outside on the deck, just chilling. There was a woman there drunk as hell. She latched onto a red plastic cup, as if it was the cup of life. She came up to me and said, “Hello there, I don’t remember if we met.” She extended her hand. I reluctantly shook her hand, noticing how tipsy she was. “I was here last week, we’ve met before.” She pointed her wobbly finger in my direction, her cup sloshing the liquid around. She narrowed her alcohol-hazed eyes at me. “Yeah, you’re the guy doesn’t talk much.” I nodded. “That’s me.’ I guess she noticed my standoffish approach to our conversion so she said, “Don’t mind me, I’m shit-faced drunk. I get like this.” “Thanks for the warning,” I remarked. She left my sight, and I sat down near the table. I struck up a conversation about geek talk, when the sam...

Lame-Azz Rave gets busted.

Image
What’s more dangerous than terrorists? Utah kids… http://www.ifilm.com/ifilmdetail/2678222 Comment: These cops moved like there was a group of terrorists in the crowd. If you simply watch the last half of the video, you would think that this was set in Iraq. BTW these kids had permits. Actually, the music was pretty lame and the rave seemed more than a little boring as well. It only got interesting when the cops appeared. Here’s a new rule 1 If the party, rave, club starts to get boring, just call the cops. It will start to heat up then.

The Karate Kid (review)

Image
The Karate Kid Certain movies you remember everything about the experience in Movie Theater. You actually remember watching it in the theater as a child. The Karate Kid was one of those movies. I remembered going into the theater with my family, and really enjoying the movie. I remembered when everyone in the theater cheered when Daniel did the Crain kick. Looking back at the movie now, I was surprised how well the movie holds up. Sure there are some things that date the movie, but what movie doesn’t have those issues. The central theme of the movie is friendship. Watching the movie now as man, I’ve picked up more interesting concepts that were too over my head at the time. However, now I get it, I understand it. The character I identified with the most was Daniel LaRusso (Daniel-san). He was an outsider just like me. He lived with only one parent, his mother. The relationship with his mother was one of nicest relationships I’ve seen in the 80s. Li...
