Review - Zombieland, Nuts Up!

If you're a fan of Grindhouse, Shoot 'Em Up or just want to see a funny ass zombie movie, then this is it! The movie pretty much is a mash-up of those shooter arcade games that had the actual guns you use to play as a kid meets blockbuster Hollywood, and actually done right. The cast is actually really well picked: Jesse Eisenberg is pretty much a brunette Michael Cera (Superbad), Emma Stone is great along with Abigail Breslin, and (an actor I'm not usually a fan of) Woody Harrelson made this movie. He was freaking hilarious with his lines and attitude. MINOR SPOILER: this movie has one of the funniest cameos I've seen in a movie with Bill Murray. I'm not going to give anything away but every scene Murray is in, is laugh out loud funny.

The zombies were cool looking with great kills, and it was fun(ny) how they made it almost into a videogame with them trying to get Zombie Kill of the Week. The amount of gore, pop out scares, and zombie kills were perfectly balanced with the humor. Definitely a boys out movie but girls would probably find this movie good too. OVERALL, if you want to see a non-thinking just fun and freaking hilarious movie then see Zombieland. The acting was good, the zombies were great, the movie was funny, and is just a fun thing to watch.

Rating: 4 / 5 Bs

Rio de Janeiro Wins Bid

Rio de Jeneiro is the official location of the 2016 Summer Olympics. Chicago, Tokyo, and Madrid lost out in the race as the IOC decided in the end to side with Rio. Sucks that Chicago didn't get it since would've been close for the majority of us to try and see the best athletes in the world compete. But, you have to give credit for Rio for winning as the first ever South American city to hold the Olympics. But, for Rio now the real work begins. China spent around $58.5 billion to create what they did for the '08 Olympics. Rio still has time to build and make their city awesome as London is currently working on making their city ready for the 2012 games.

Bangarang! The New A-Team!

The new A-Team has started some early production. Check out some set photos here. Liam Neeson looks great with the grey hair comb over as Col. John 'Hannibal' Smith. The team's pretty legit, Liam Neeson as Hannibal, Bradley Cooper as Lt. Templeton 'Face' Peck, Sharlto Copley (from District 9) as Capt. H.M. 'Howling Mad' Murdock, and from the UFC Quinton 'Rampage' Jackson as Sgt. B.A. 'Bad Attitude' Barcus. Going to be real when released!

The Trilogies are coming!

Tarantino and Bay announced this week trilogies they're bringing back to the big screen. Tarantino decided that Kill Bill wasn't done yet as Kill Bill 3 will be coming to the big screens but he's made it sound like it'll be coming out in 2014. Kinda odd to announce a trilogy addition this early in the game, but with Tarantino you can never really understand what's going on in his head.

On a more important front, Michael Bay has announced that Transformers 3 will be coming in 2011 now, instead of earlier reports of 2012. Bay has already begun meetings with ILM (Industrial Light and Magic), the creators of the superb visual effects, to begin hammering away at new mind blowing effects for the next installation. If it's at all like T2, this film is going to be sick. Wonder who the next introduced babe is going to be on the big screen with Megan Fox. Check out the past post on the Babes of Transformers, so far Bay hasn't dissapointed and I doubt he will.
