Videogame TV ads
I’ll say it again. Holy shit. This site has, quite possibly, EVERY single videogame TV ad you can even think of. There’s a ridiculously large number of ads in there. I haven’t had the chance to take a look at all of them yet (it’ll probably take me like fucking days if not weeks) but i did click on the Perfect Dark one (remember that game?). Sexy shit. Find your favorite one.
Oh and speaking of videogames.
Witness. Hundreds of Street Fighter nerds. Geeking out. As Daigo “The Beast” Umehara totally PWNS Justin Wong with only a sliver of life left. During a Street Fighter 3rd Strike match at EVO 2004.
So many nerds. It’s kinda scary.
Buncha movies
Just a coupla movie trailers that’ve caught my eye. Check em out and lemme know what you think.
Saw this trailer online a coupla weeks ago. Saw it again before AVP started. I don’t know about you but i’m really looking forward to this one. It’s pretty eerie watching that part of the scene where the paparazzi are chasing Cole Hauser in those vans. Kinda reminded me of the whole Princess Diana thing with how she died and all. Cole Hauser is pretty cool. I liked him in Pitch Black (and Escape from Butcher Bay). Mel Gibson is producing this one. Should be pretty good. Revenge flicks are always the best.
Just thought i’d mention this one even though i probably won’t be seeing it in theaters (but probably will once it’s on DVD. maybe). Jennifer Lopez is in it. I actually didn’t recognize it was her until i saw her name in the credits. I thought it was just someone that looked like Jennifer Lopez (kinda like that chick they got in that Anaconda sequel; Anacondas). But fuck Jennifer Lopez. I’m actually more interested in this movie because of Susan Sarandon. Not J.Lo. Ever seen Pretty Baby? Mmm. Susan Sarandon boobies. She was hot. Still is. I’d hit it.
This one looks pretty damn promising. It’s a documentary about these two guys that travel around the world fighting corporate greed; by targeting the people they see as ‘criminals’ and stealing their identities to try to make them honest. Sort of reminds me of that little skit Michael Moore had in Bowling For Columbine; Corporate Cops. And what’s even cooler is that they got Michael Moore to cameo in their movie! That’s hot.
So Miramax FINALLY decided to release Hero after NUMEROUS fucking delays. But it’s no biggie though since i’m sure everybody who actually gives a damn about this flick has already gotten it on DVD or downloaded it off the net. This movie is nearly 2 years old now. I gotta say though, if you’re thinking that this is going to be another Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, you’re probably gonna be disappointed. The action scenes in this one aren’t as good but they’re still pretty cool though nonetheless (if you can stomach the whole ‘flying’ people thing… which apparently a lot of Americans don’t ‘get’). Oh and it helps if you’re familiar with Akira Kurosawa’s Rashomon style of story telling because Hero’s story is quite similar in that respect. It’s still a good movie though. VERY beautifully shot. If anything, just watch it because fucking Zhang Ziyi is in it (Rush Hour 2, Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon). I love that girl. So fucking hot. So fucking kick ass. Can’t speak English for shit (did you see her acceptance speech at the 2001 MTV movie awards? yech) but hey, i’d still hit it.
Now here’s what i’m more looking forward to. From the same guy who directed Hero and featuring a more prominent starring role for Zhang Ziyi, House of Flying Daggers (that’s such an oldschool movie title) should be pretty good, if not better than Hero. It’s called Lovers in Japan (the link up there takes you to the Japanese trailer) and it looks A LOT more ‘period’ than CTHD or Hero (which i’m not really into.. reminds me too much of the cheesy period chinese TV serials that used to be on every weekday at 6PM back home) but i have faith in Zhang Yimou. His flicks are always good. And hey, i’d watch anything where Zhang Ziyi gets to simulate having sex on screen.
Here’s a movie that i’ve heard a lot about but haven’t actually seen. It’s from Thailand and it supposedly has the craziest motherfucking stunts and fight scenes around. Because they were all done FOR REAL without wires or CGI. I read about this movie numerous times and for the life of me i still can’t remember what the movie is all about but it doesn’t really matter because the plot really sucks (if it didn’t, i probably would remember it) and it’s really all about the insane fucking stunts they pull off. I’m talking crazier than Jackie Chan (in his prime) kind of stunts. Or at least close to. This one’s pretty old too. I think it’s been out in Asia for well over a year now. I think they guys that made this movie went on to make another one called Born To Fight or something. And that one’s got an equally ridiculous plot (something like a guy and a national olympics team teaming up to stop a bunch of terrorist who take over a village…. told you) but again, it’s all about the fights. I saw a trailer for that one and it had this one stunt where this guy is jumping from one big truck to another (fear factor style) and he slips and he falls and he fucking almost gets his fucking HEAD crushed by one of the wheels of the truck. Seriously. And again, it’s all done for REAL. Fucking crazy Thai people. Hunt down the trailer and check it out for yourself.
How does it stay up?
Took me a while but i think i figured out how it works. Whether or not it actually works well is up for debate.
Girls? What do you think?
And we’re back
Holla bitches! So i just got my grades and shit back for that short movie we made for class. We got a 154 points out of a possible 150. Because it’s just THAT DAMN GOOD (or at least better than the rest of the other shorts). Incidently it was also the only short that got a perfect score (150). Plus i also have the highest number of points in class AND i got an A. In the words of Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie:
“That’s hot”
So i went and saw Alien vs. Predator today. It was actually pretty alright. Got in with that free ticket you get when you buy the Collector’s Edition of Predator on DVD. I love how they’re giving away movie tickets with DVDs these days. Half the movies i’ve seen this year i didn’t even have to buy a ticket for. Got ’em free with DVDs (The Chronicles of Riddick, Spider-Man 2, The Bourne Supremacy, AVP). That’s hot.
The only thing i wish Paul W.S Anderson did differently with AVP was to let it have an R rating. Plus, they really wasted the one and only “fuck” that they’re allowed to say (in a PG-13 movie) on the wrong line.
It really should have gone to the “ugly motherfucker” line. Instead of the one they went with (which was pretty lame).
Hopefully there’ll be an unrated directors cut on DVD with extra gore and swearing (kinda like what they’re doing with the Chronicles of Riddick DVD). Actually i think they’re also gonna double dip P.W.S.A’s Resident Evil with a deluxe DVD edition or something. Was that movie originally PG-13? Can’t remember. Either way it would be cool if they put out an unrated cut for both Resident Evil and AVP somewhere along the line (doubtful though).
Anyway, apologies for the site downtime these past 2 days. Apparently they were doing some kind of maintenence on the servers and installing a firewall system or something for the network so that we won’t get DOS attacks. But anyhow, we’re back. And i’ll probably be updating a lot more now since i’m pretty much done with school crap for now (at least until the Fall semester starts).
More updates later.
Seacrest out!
Kirsten Dunst a dirty girl?
Los Angeles – Spider-Man star Kirsten Dunst has spoken out for the first time on her split from actor Jake Gyllenhaal.
“It couldn’t last,” said Dunst, 22. “He’s a stay-at-home boy, I’m an out-on-the-town girl. I’m sad this happened but my career is blossoming and I want to make the most of every moment.”
According to Digitalspy she also revealed that they attempted to spice up their two-year relationship with “risqué sex” in shops, cars, bathrooms and beaches.
Before their split, the pair slipped into a London boutique changing room for a quick session. “Other shoppers heard a lot of moaning and groaning – and then stared at us when we came out looking very red-faced.
“We did it in cars, bathrooms – even on the beach. The only place we chickened out of was a hotel corridor because we thought we might get thrown out if we were caught.”
Limey to American Dictionary
I was actually schooled under the British education system (before i started college here in Michigan) but for some reason i prefer speaking and writing English the American way.
And going back to the post i made about that faggot family….
faggot n. In the UK, a faggot is a meatball. In the US, a faggot is a male homosexual. In reality, the American definition is known (if not really used) UK-wide, so most of the jokes involving “faggots in brine” have already been made. I am told that in the US the word (spelled with only one ‘g’) also means a small bundle of twigs, so the phrase “toss another fagot on the fire” is not quite the incitement to violence that it might seem.
That site is almost as interesting as urbandictionary.com. I like dictionary sites.
PWNING
Okay so i haven’t been online much this past week. Been busy shooting this short film for class… oh by the way, the 1 minute commercial i made, got voted second best by the class. which is BULLSHIT because the winner’s commercial totally fucking sucked compared to mine. It got 0 laughs, whereas mine had people laughing and chuckling repeatedly even after the thing was over, seriously it was like:
Commercial starts, commercial is about to end and get to the big punchline, huge laughter, laughter goes on for while, laughter starts dying down. Laughter is heard again as people start thinking about the ad. Laughter dies down. People start filling in their little critique forms and they start laughing again as they’re remembering what they just saw. Laughter dies down.
How my commercial didn’t get the ‘spotlight’ award is beyond me. The other one was some boring artsy fartsy new age Body Shop cosmetics type thing (quite pretty to look at though). But in terms of editing and camerawork, it was NOTHING SPECIAL. Mine had like fucking over 60+ cuts within the span of 60 seconds! With some Sam Raimi style shit in there too!
Anyhow, i’ll be fucking pissed if our final group project short movie thing doesn’t get the spotlight. After seeing little bits and pieces of what the other groups have done (ALL SHIT compared to ours in terms of editing), if ours doesn’t ‘win’, then there’s no justice in the world.
But fuck it. This isn’t about my dumb short. It’s about how this site kicks ass!*
I was just over at Uncle Grambo’s catching up on the posts i’ve missed this past week and i saw a link to this page. So i figured what the hey. I’ll just go look up thatsjustnotright.com on alexa.com to see how fubar stacks up to everyone else on that list (they all seem to be entertainment based blogs btw) and based on those stats and my own ranking for today (7th of August), i would’ve been ranked 3rd!
Of course this really means nothing since i rarely ever have any good stuff on here anymore so again, i’m still wondering why the hell i get as many visitors as i do and why the hell people keep coming back. I’m also wondering why the hell i keep asking those questions because this is probably like the fourth time i’ve done so.
Anyway, back to me being busy editing that short movie. The ‘premiere’ is on Monday.
And before anybody asks, it’s a reimagined 2LDK. 12 minute running time. It’s got a really hot chick in it too. TOTALLY dream girl material. Imagine a mixture of Alicia Silverstone and Dominique Swain and that’s Angela. HOT.

Lindsay Lohan marrying Fez?
Strangely enough, another ‘news’ item i found through my guestbook:
LOHAN AND VALDERRAMA TO WED?
“Freaky Friday” star Lindsay Lohan has sparked speculation she’s planning to marry boyfriend Wilmer Valderrama, after she was spotted sporting a ring he gave her.
The redheaded actress, who turned 18 last month, was careful not to go public about her romance with Valderrama until her recent birthday.
But now fans have been further shocked by the appearance of a ring on her finger, which pals say Valderrama gave to Lohan as a gift for her birthday.
A friend says, “They hid the romance, because (she was underage). But now they are even talking about getting married!”
