Rule of Three:One Bro makes a solo attack.
A Second Bro provides a crutch,
A Third Bro rounds out the pack,
But a Fourth Bro is one too much.
Tony Stark's (aka Iron Man) Stark Industries has a new website (http://www.starkindustriesnow.com/) that allows you to have the chance to become an employee. Supposedly they're not a weapons manufacturer any more, but could still be pretty cool. (And yes it's a joke page, but not sure what happens after you fill it out.)
Assassin's Creed is easily one of the most visually amazing games to this day. The world is huge with brilliant minuscule details and the movements of the characters reach far heights (literally too) in realism. The story is semi-repetitive, but supposedly the second installation takes the best of the first and fixes all the problems. Can't wait, but the first is a B Worthy byte!
Since I previously posted on the Babes of SNICK, I thought TGIF babes deserved a posting too because everyone watched TGIF. The shows rocked and it was what you did when you were younger on a Friday night. The networks need to bring back blocks like these. So these are the babes of TGIF:
I know, that the Olsen twins were on this show but they were toddlers so I'm ruling them out since it feels kind of illegal. But, Becky was a total babe on the show, there's no wonder why Jesse went after her and married her. And for looking that hot back when the show began in '87 was awesome, but Loughlin is still hot today. She has great legs and a killer smile and is currently on 90210 and will be soon seen on Old Dogs. Loughlin easily makes the list.
Easily my favorite show of TGIF, Boy Meets World was funny, relatable, and had a great range of characters to follow. And Mr. Feeny is just a great name for a principle. But besides the awesomeness of the show, the babes had to stand up just as well and Topanga was hot. Started off as a nerd in the early years but became pretty hot later in the series. Fishel has been trying to get back in the game as she appears in National Lampoon's Dorm Daze. She still has a voluptuous body, great smile, and hopefully will have a comeback.
This year a lot more 80s bands are coming back onto the musical tour pathway bringing some great music back to live venues. Hitting the concert path this year are: Poison, Def Leppard, Blondie, Pat Benatar, Teena Marie, Keith Sweat, Depeche Mode, Wang Chung, and the Pet Shop Boys. Some of these bands you may never of heard of but you would know their hit songs if you heard them. The 80s are probably coming back, thanks to the hip-hop/pop industry who uses a lot of the 80s old beats and lyrics. Such as Flo Rida's Dead or Alive using "Right Round." Obviously, if the bands are going to reunite successfully they need to bring a little something something that this generation wants to hear. But, I'm excited for a few of these bands to come back to the live stage and rock their faces off!
Announced at Comic-Con over the weekend, the successful EA game Dead Space (click here for game trailer) is going to be turned into a live-action film. Temple Hill production company (who is also making the Gears of War movie, which should be awesome) teamed up again with EA to bring the movie to life with attached director DJ Caruso. Caruso has previously done Eagle Eye and Disturbia so hopefully that doesn't mean Shia LaBeouf is going to be in the film, and ruin it. Caruso does have a flare for strong visuals and the ability to create tension, so hopefully he'll bring that to Dead Space which is a horror/sci-fi game. A lot of video games are now becoming movies, which is great because some of the greatest writers are in the VG industry and now their stories will become even more public. EA also announced that the Dead Space franchise is going to most likely become a trilogy which fans everywhere should be stoked about because the first game is amazing. No release date has been set yet for the movie, but if they're announcing it now, it'll most likely be released in 2012 but that's just my guess.
Hung is the freshman series on HBO sandwiched between True Blood and Entourage, and makes that block great. The show stars Thomas Jane who becomes a prostitute with a secretary as his pimp, played by Jame Adams. Just watching him struggle trying to become a whore is great, it's still early in the season but when he gets into the swing of things it's going to be that much funnier. Definitely a B Worthy show.
NFL commissioner Roger Goodell (pictured right) has reinstated Michael Vick back into the NFL, but with conditions attached. He is allowed to participate in any team activities excluding games, by Week 6 in the season Goodell will decide if Vick deserves full reinstatement into the NFL. Vick served 18 months in prison for running a dogfighting ring, and was suppose to be permanently removed from the league in total. I get that he served his time and is now considered a free man, just like any other prisoner who is allowed the chance to try and go back to work. But, Vick was once the highest paid athlete in the league and is suppose to be a role model for kids (even if he didn't ask to be). I think it's okay that Goodell is allowing Vick to temporarily be back in the NFL, but Vick needs to prove to the NFL fans that he has changed. I don't think Goodell should allow him to be completely
reinstated at Week 6, unless Vick proves himself worthy to deserve that privilege. Dog fighting is just messed up. Plain and simple, definitely one of the most messed up things a person can do. And when you have money, there isn't a reason to be holding crap like that. Honestly, I want to know who is going to take Vick back. He's still a free agent, and whatever team decided to nab him they better be ready for bad publicity and a lot of press events, it may take away from the team's moral. I do think it was an okay decision by Goodell to temporarily allow Vick back in the NFL, but I think it's going to be a bad idea for any team who wants to win the Superbowl to bring Vick onto their rosters. Vick is definitely not a B Worthy athlete.
The Ugly Truth tries to attract the male audience by showing Gerard Butler being a man's man and calling it how it is about women in the trailers. Which, he does during the movie to some extent and has a couple good lines. But, in all honesty, this a pure chick flick. If you saw the trailer you can guess exactly how the movie is going to turn out. I like seeing romantic comedies when they're good with a mix of male and female humor. This was 95% female humor with attempts at male humor. Katherine Heigl looked great in a lot of the scenes (especially the "naked" weather girl), her eyes just freak me out a little bit. They're too far apart. And there's a scene with vibrator panties and I thought it was going to be a lot funnier than it was, it kind of fell flat. A positive note, the cast of side-babes were great like the Fun Bag Twins Bambi and Candi, and Cheryl Hines is always a great comedian and didn't disappoint in the film. Overall, there was minimal male humor, way too chicky for a man to sit through the entire 96 mins, and it was predictable. Not worth bringing a date to since the man won't enjoy it that much.
Bottom line, it's never a good thing to be whipped by your woman. If you're married, or been dating for at least a year, these are the exceptions. But a whipped man, is a sad man. Make sure you don't have any of these signs, and if you do, it's time to change. Here are 10 signs that you're whipped.
Alberto Contador (pictured) has won the 96th Tour De France the other day, the 2nd to his name. Contador finished the 3 week, 2,141 mile race in 85 hours, 48 minutes, 35 seconds. Just completing this race is a feat of monumental man-ness. Intense stretches up mountains, through valleys, and varying weather makes the Tour De France one of the toughest endurance races for mankind. Contador, just a 26 year old, completed it and won only by 4 mins and 11 secs in front of Andy Schleck. Lance Armstrong, the American hopeful, placed 3rd after returning from a four year break from the Tour. Obviously, it would have been awesome if Armstrong won again marking his eighth, but Armstrong is definitely an American hero for having 7 titles to his name and all of the health problems he overcame along with his charity work. Contador earns the title of a B Worthy athlete, but Armstrong will always be a B Worthy man.
A man is not afraid to work with his hands. To this end, James May has taken every boy's hobby and has put it through puberty. He plans to build a two-story working house of just Legos. He has already had 3 millions Legos shipped to the site in Surrey, England. May is looking for volunteers to help him as the build will be featured on his show "James May's Toy Stories." Check out the line about a fully functional man throne (i.e. toilet) and click his name for the full article.
It's hot out, it's the summer, you're relaxing outside either at the beach or in the backyard, and you need a beer. Legit, the Samuel Adams Summer Ale is the quencher for this kind of weather. Smooth ale taste and not watery tasting like those crappy light beers the companies are trying to pone off as B Worthy beers. Sam Adams Summer Ale makes the cut.
Even after Fergie and Will.I.Am go off and become single artists, the Black Eyed Peas reunite and return with a beastly album. The majority of the songs, like previous albums, are awesome and upbeat. Exactly why it's called Energy Never Dies. Perfect cruising music and fun to listen to. Definitely a B Worthy album!
White Sox's Mark Buehrle pitched the first perfect game in the major leagues in five years, as the Sox beat the Rays 5-0. Buehrle (11-3) got help from center fielder DeWayne Wise who robbed Gabe Kapler of a deep left-centre almost home run as Wise jumped and snagged the ball from over the fence. Must've been something to see a no-hitter, incredible talent on Buehrle's part along with the rest of the team, and some luck, but that makes Buehrle more than B Worthy!
This is the first poster of Josh Brolin and Megan Fox's new film Jonah Hex shown at Comic-Con. Based off of the DC Comic anti-hero, Jonah Hex is a cynical Western gun-slinger hero (similar to a Clint Eastwood) with half of his face scarred over. In the film, Hex is going after a voodoo practitioner who's trying to take over the South. Not
sure the role Fox is playing but just by the picture below, I can't wait to see it. The film is at the moment slated to be released August 6, 2010.
There's a reason why baseball is the national past time. Being at a ballpark is one of the greatest feelings when you're chilling with your buddies, drinking cold beer, eating a hot dog, and have the smell of baseball around you. Baseball is something that makes America great and that makes it B Worthy.
Rule 1) Choosing The Urinal.
Beer and sausage, need I have to say more? This awesome combination is not only amazingly delicious but also incredibly easy to make. They're great to have at a backyard party, when you go tailgating, or just want to eat like a man.
The Maserati Granturismo S not only has a sleek powerful build, an 8 cylinder 440 hp engine, but has an advantage of being built by a small company. This allows the owner to have it personalized for them self to fit their needs and body. And damn just look at this beast, that's one freaking sweet car.
Growing up, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles kicked ass as a cartoon but then became legendary when the turtles came to life in the four live-action movies back in the '90s. Mirage Studios has announced at this year's Comic-Con (currently going on) that in 2011 a brand new live-action TMNT will bow to continue the franchise. They have Scott Mednick (300) and Galen Walker (TMNT) on as producers and just declared John Fusco to be the writer. Fusco has previously written the Jackie Chan/Jet Li movie The Forbidden Kingdom and in 2004 Hidalgo. Fusco should be able to bring the spirit of the Turtles back to the big screen and incorporate some kick ass kung-fu fighting. Hopefully, they won't botch it and make it into a serious film because the Turtles are comic/cartoony/misfits that need to have a lot of humor attached.
Rock Band has announced at this year's E3 convention the release of The Beatles: Rock Band game for all systems on September 9th. The game features the Fab Four and a giant amount of their songs along with the addition of new instruments designed to fit in with the Beatles theme. The game allows 3 vocals at once just like the Fab Four did in real life, and the coolest part is that you get to play as the Beatles through their entire career. Starting in The Cavern Club and continuing on, you get to chronicle their career and be apart of it. An interesting feature are semi-music videos built into the performance while you play that were designed with Paul McCartney's help. It's actually pretty incredible how popular they still are and the range of music they have. The game looks sick, I still prefer Guitar Hero, but this may make me consider looking into Rock Band too. Click Here for the official site for the game and below is the trailer showing the game play.

1) When you first wake up look around you:
When a T-Bone is placed down in front of you all you hear are the sounds of car engines, women orgasms, explosions, and any sound a man finds amazing because this is the King of all Steaks. The T-Bone is steak. It's great to grill, great to eat, and you get to use your hands to gnaw on that bone. This is the B Worthy Steak!
Here is a sneak peek at Scarlett Johansson as the Black Widow for the upcoming Iron Man 2. She definitely looks pretty sexy as a red head, especially in that position. But, the Black Widow (aka Natasha Romanova) is a kick ass soldier who would beat the crap out of you if messed with. Those bracelets she has on contain grappling hook-like "widow" cables and the "widows bite" which shoots 30k volts through the attacker. Wouldn't mind getting bit by Scarlett Jo though.
Just want to start by saying that this review is based solely on the movie and will not be compared to the book besides the following few sentences. Obviously, the movie (like majority of adaptaions) does not hold up to the book. Parts were changed, left out, or just skimmed over (Dumbledore's death scene was changed and not as powerful as the books, death eaters were relatively scarce in the movie, and much more) and, yes, that definitely takes away from the movie.
eaters, just all of the CGI and set design were really impressive looking. The Weasley Magic shop was really cool too, and again I wished they added more of these side stories into the film. I luckily go to see it in IMAX (will come to more IMAX screens in 2 weeks) and the 3D beginning was sick. It was disappointing when you had to take the glasses off. And, for a 2 hr 30 min movie there was maybe one slow point, but that was it, and if that's it, then that's a good paced movie. The only real reason it's PG is because there's a lack of violence going on since that's going to be coming in bucket fulls in the final two films. Overall, definitely worth to see if you've seen the previous Potter flicks, it's a really good movie that kept you entertained throughout, it did leave out parts from the book, but man o man it would be so freaking cool to have powers like that or at least some of that Liquid Luck. Too bad it's not real. In the end, go see this film in theaters, it's actually worth the money. Click Here for the trailer.
(500) Days of Summer stars Zooey Deschanel (from Yes Man) and Joseph Gordon-Levitt (from 10 Things I Hate About You) and, as advertised, this is really not a love story. The story is a good reminder that a lot of relationships aren't perfect like they are in movies, and a lot of them sooner or later end. You have the quirkiness of Deschanel who plays her part brilliantly being the girl who doesn't want a permanent relationship, and Gordon-Levitt is an actually pretty decent leading man who wants the relationship. The cool thing about the movie, is that it tells the story out of order of the 500 days they're together so it shows how the relationship fluctuates. The movie overall is a quirky movie with Deschanel's humor added in, the jobs they hold, and the one random musical sequence which is hilarious. Deschanel looks uber cute with her doe-like eyes, slightly emo style, and slim body through out the pic, and there's a lot of good humor that keeps the story moving. This soundtrack is going to be one of the top-selling guaranteed, I'm not a fan of emo-esque songs but they were pretty good sounding. I think the soundtrack will sell just as well as the movie will. If you're not a fan of the cutesy romantic comedies like the most recent The Proposal, this would be a great movie then for you to take a date to go see.
