game of death.

There are few things more entertaining that Kareem Abdul-Jabra fighting Jackie Chan....wait, I mean Bruce Lee.

My foreign Dad told be about this movie, Game of Death. It went something like this.

Shaun: Your obsessed with Kungfu movies...that's so late 80's

Dad: They were way better back then than now. Give me the Kareem fighting Bruce Lee scenes over the flying nonsense any day

Shaun:....

Dad: You've never seen that one?

Shaun: What are you talking about...im 23

Dad: Look it up on the Internet



And I did.




I mean....did you see the imprint that Kareem's foot left on Bruce Lee's chest. LOL...YESSSSS!

the last supper. no forks and knives please.

Where the f*ck is the giraffe? I want a giraffe.

OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NKOB

Breaking News.

It's official. New Kids On the Block (sorry NKOB) are back together...and as I waited patiently for video clips of them shucking and jiving on the Today Show, it turns out they did not sing or dance. All I have is this. Come on Meredith. But they are back together. And...well, that's it.

I hope this goes better than the Dru Hill reunion.

they are soooo smart, because its 2008, they have changed their name to keep up with the times. You know who else did this? The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (TMNT).

"In the year 2000!"

from across the pond....Estelle.

New artist alert. I like this song. Its my April jam...and its good at the gym too.

Estelle - "American Boy" ft. Kanye West


think its also funny how this video portrays "American Boys." Being one myself, I was not in this video. And lets be serious....5ft 7 is not the ideal man height. That's bordering little man complex, aint it?

Other Estelle joints...

"Wait A Minute"
"wrap it up cuz i ain't carrying your embryo" ....
1980
she has actually been around for awhile, but she is black and British...and those two things aren't exactly the ideal situation. Word is, she is starting to speak up about the incongruousness of the British "soul music" scene. And how there are no people of color. Do it to it.
Go Gone
This is like, Knarls Barkly meets Sister Act....back when she just started...or should I say began.


She's also got a look....I'd hollar, or atleast stare at her real hard from across the club w/ a martinin in hand. I use to date someone who looks alot like her. So I may be partial. But, I am never wrong. New artist Grammy. Trust. The new Lauren Hill (rapper/singer...you gitta hear the album).

And yall know, I dont do well with accents. And I'm still feelin her.

PS I was reading some of the comments below the youtube videos....holy ape shit, the slang some of the Brits use, makes English look like a crazed mid-east dialect. Dazed and confused, I thought they were all cultured across the pond?

the picture said to the ear.

Review, review, review...I could hear them shouting from the streets. So, I will. Let's review some film sh*t.




So, I haven't been to the theater in a minute...but thanks to my Netflixing roommates and their whiteness, I am able to keep up with the jones. I dedicated an entire Sunday afternoon to Brad Pitt. Which by itself, isn't the worst thing I've ever done. I watched The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford. And if you think the name of the movie is long, press the play button on this flick and around 2 hours in you will regret everything you have ever done in your life. Long. Slow. And long. Brad did well. Baby Aflleck did well. The movie was just...well, really, really slow. I nodded off at one point. Ok, two points. 3:10 to Yuma. Russel Crow and Christian Bale. Magnifico! Russel plays a fugitive who is brought to justice my a family man. When the family man volunteers he runs into more than he baragins for . Namely, Ben Foster's character...bad ass cowboy. Ben Foster picks really good films. He is so Bad ass in all his films... X Men (arc angel), Alpha Dog (crazy drug brother who punched girls in the face), 30 Days of Night (vampire lap dog). Just a Good flick. I'd buy it and put it on my shelf, when I get a real home. Sunshine. Ok. So imagine the sun is dieing right. So the earth sends up a group of people to launch a bomb into the sun to relight it. The thing is, anyone who has seen Armageddon knows that shit just doesn't go your way in space. You either get burned up by the sun, run out of oxygen, are attacked by aliens or freeze to death. These are just facts of life. Well, in this movie... someone is sabotaging the ship. Wha!!!! And then it gets kinda trippy. Religion seeps its way in. And Cillian Murphy proves that he is not good at choosing roles. Yet another space flick gone wrong. Whap. Whap. And there were no Aliens (::spoiler::or ghosts as the previews suggested). Need I say more? I miss Starship Troppers. Oh, god, oh god...I hate to admit it, but I got tricked into seeing a Tyler Perry movie. I hang my head in shame as I did make a personal promise to myself to never watch a movie made by Mr Perry. Why? Because it...the genre he partakes in...I feel is horribly stereotypical and stupid and demeaning. And when I did finally see a movie, Tyler perry: Meet the Browns, all of my opinions were confirmed. And compounded by a horrible script, horrendous dialogue and a completely un-entertaining script. The worse part....Angela Basset was in it, making a fool out of her self with the aging rapidly, Rick Fox (Vanessa Williams must be sucking the life out of him). Thanks alot mom. I'll never get that hour and a half back. I don't think I have ever been so uninterested in a movie as I watched it in the theater ever...and it was free w/ free movie food.



Soon to See:


Iron Man. May 2nd. I know it will be awesome. And yes Gwynth Paltrow is alive and doing comic book movies. Dork Alert....should I feel bad for checking this site every other day. http://www.superherohype.com/

Indiana Jones : And the Skull of Crystal Meth..I mean The Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. LeBoeuf...Don't f*ck this up. Im not too sure about your ability as of yet. And I dont want you to ruin possibly the greatest movie comeback ever (sans Rambo). Even though you are a fellow smoker. And thats wats up. Except Im reformed (ing).

Want to sees. The Fall. It looks like Pans Labyrinth but for American-in english...with no subtitles. Or it could be a sad attempt at another artsy fartsy film that I can pretend to have interest in and understand...until I see it.


Im out.

just some cool pics.

genius ads 2.

thank you JWT Toronto- there is finally a campaign that brings this epidemic to light.




AIDS. TB. Leukemia...they all get there shine, but hand washing is so underrepresented as a social problem. F*ck a red campaign...we need a yellow campaign.

And I am oh so serious. I work in a trading firm that is made up of about 200 men who were clearly ingested and pooped out into the work force from the nearest and closest (and grossest) fraternity in town. I've seen them simply not wash their hands.

Hence, I cant eat out of the communal cookie jar at the reception desk without getting a bit queasy. Ugh! Disgusting. I just want a cookie.

thai ads.

like these alot...and so do the boys. Its a fact.

Yes, that is a ball sack you see. I really hope these ran.

Bigger?

Ewwwww, the dreaded number 8. I hope that's not what it really means.

akward.

1. Paris Hilton Judges Ms Turkey competition.
2. She is guided on stage to belly dance.
3. She realizes that she is not drunk and on the bar at some dark LA club.



Its almost painful. In a good way.

so close.....

DAMN, DAMN, DAMN.......so close to complete nip slip. We will get you next time Rihanna. You are bound to slip up some time. And I'll be waiting.

Mark my words.

just a few (10) things.

1. Its true hiring woman can be a bitch. But this article tell you how to not hire a bitch. With genius insight like "3. General experience indicates that "husky" girls - those who are just a little on the heavy side - are more even tempered and efficient than their underweight sisters." you know this is the sole reason women....alll of then even have jobs today. You women, better thank the lords for the year 1943, that's all I'm saying. Puts it all on the table.

2. And you thought stripper names were bad. This is part of the reason why we arent taken seriously globally. The other part is our far from irregular accents. Thank god.

3. Curry Bomb? My question is....does it work on the the Indian nations. Like...the Indians with dots, not the ones with feathers. Someone may need to call the NAACP, wait...I am a Colored Person. Never mind. I never like curry.

4. How much would you pay for a corn flake that kinda looks like a state? Well, considering that I think all cornflakes kinda look like states...not to mention puppies and long johns and dragons too. They all taste the same when you cover them with sugar. But, apparently state-like cornflakes go for $1,350 on ebay these days. This is why ebay scares me. Where are the rules.

5. Plus sized Miss England. Excuse me for being an ass. But it is a beauty pageant...and well, this girl is far from beautiful. And she's...well, she is fat. There I said it. Blame it on the media. Mean are ass holes. Ms America vs Ms England......that's one for states.

6. Lizard robot. Need I say more. Set those b*tches out on Al Quida.

7. New Kids on the Block Reunion Performance. You heard right. It will on the today show....this Friday. I will be youtubing-it-up that after noon. Don't you worry. The 90s are about to come alive....yet again. Glorious.

8. In case you didn't hear, the Brangelina wedding was false. Just when you thought people would just start getting married again....nope, lets just keep pooping out bastard babies. Cause you know...we are famous.

9. Wait, so we don't like president bush?

10. Just a reminder......LONG LIVE proper grammer.



I may not be able to spell, but damnit...I can string together some words correctly. And the rest of you need to learn the same. Shut your mouth Kelly...I know you have some snark remark. ::waves frantically:::

old vs new ads.

I think they got it right the first time. Though both are equally impressive, there is a cinematic quality to the old one that you just dont see anymore. Love it. Hope I get to make work like that one day.

41:31

if yall didnt know...thats my time for the 8k Shamrock Shuffle I just ran on Sunday. It also happens to be my new favorite number.

My first race ever. I ran it in 41:31. And I placed 4,949th out of 22,558 finishers. And 3592 out of 10,000 males. Not bad for a beginner.

It feels good to finally accomplish something here in Chicago. I felt like I was here to waste time and my life. Sad.

I smell career change. Shiiiiat, its not like making ads is getting me anywhere.
