Who Wants to be a Superhero?

If you haven't caught it yet, I highly recommend that you tune in and watch an episode of "Stan Lee's Who wants to be a Superhero" It is so bad, it is a must see. It is so obviously scripted, and so incredibly cheesy, if you were ever a comic fan check it out. Last nights episode had me laughing my ass off because it was so ridiculous. Their challenge was to go and do various things while talking to supposed hardened murderous criminals. (Both were actors that I have seen in commercials and bit parts before) The four wanna be superheroes had to decide who would do the following things; Rub a convicts shoulder 3 times, Hug a convict 3 times, sit on a convicts lap and something else 3 times. The actor/convicts played that they were hard sociopaths and threatened them when they tried to touch them, but of course allowed them. The best was when Feedback got the actor/convict to tell him that his father was killed, Feedback said that his father committed suicide (probably after seeing his adult son dress up like a superhero) he then managed to start crying and give the massive actor/convict 3 very awkward looking hugs. The best was yet to come, as during the elimination all of the wanna be superheros cried when Stan said that he was proud of them. The best though was Feedback again, he started bawling and told Stan that he considered him to be the father that raised him when his real father died. Well actually he said Stan and Spiderman got him thru that.

One of the other funny things that happened on one of the previous episodes was when Stan asked them all to nominate someone to be eliminated. All but two of the superheros nominated themselves, and what made it funny was the fact that you could tell that the ones that nominated themselves really just wanted to leave. They all had that "Please get me out of here" look on their faces.

Part of the reward for being the winning superhero is that they will get their own comic book and Sci Fi channel special. Should be another train wreck.

"Big" Movie Weekend

I spent a few days at Big's house this past week. Thanks to him I was able to see quite a few movies over a two day span. Here they are with my thoughts.

Talladega Nights: Ballad of Ricky Bobby

At first I thought, well since I am not a fan of Nascar racing I probably won't like this movie. I was wrong. This was a very funny movie! Actually probably funnier to me because I don't like Nascar. Not only did it poke fun at Nascar drivers and fans, but it also poked fun at Christians. As most of you know that know me, that is one of my favorite past times also. I watched this in a theater by myself (thanks Big!) and found myself laughing out loud many times during the movie.

5 out of 5 stars on the goofy comedy meter

"Dear 8 lb. 1 oz. infant baby Jesus" "Daddy you made that grace your bitch!"

Monster House in 3D!

I have to give this movie a 5 out of 5 rating also. This was my first experience with the new digital 3D, and if you have the opportunity to see this that way I would highly suggest it. At first I thought that it would be like the old style 3d, with bad color and silly things that come out to grab you, but it was not that. It just looks like you are looking through a window to another world. Sounds corny, but that is just what I thought. Anyway the movie was excellent, very reminiscant of the Goonies and Stand by Me. Very well done. Go see it.

Cabin Fever: Not at all what I expected. I pretty much wrote this off as a cheesy slasher movie, that is not what it is. It does have a few elements of those type of movies but it also had a smart twist and interesting situations. (and nice boobies) It was real good. See it if you haven't. Rating 4 out of 5 Stars*

Waiting: Has its moments. And beaver. Good Rental 3 out of 5 Stars*

Really Messed up Asian Horror Flick Volume II: Can't remember the real name. The only positive is that it featured Bai Ling other than that this movie sucked. Two words: infant cannabalism -1 Stars out of 5 Stars*

I also now a fan of Da' Ali G Show Very funny stuff. I especially like the Borat character. Good news is, a Borat movie is coming soon.http://http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacha_Baron_Cohen

Big also introduced me to sodomy and http://www.hbo.com/larrydavid/ Curb your Enthusiasm

Big loaned me season one on DVD. If you were a fan of Seinfeld, you will like this series. Even if you didn't watch it.

Enough of that shit. Now for something completely different. If you haven't heard Comedy Central is doing a roast of William Shatner . http://www.comedycentral.com/shows/roast_shatner/index.jhtml

One of the things that should make this good was just announced on Stern 101. George Takei will be one of the Roastees. He stated, " I have waited more than thirty years to have the opportunity to roast him" It will be interesting to see how that goes! He recently stated on the Stern show that Bill pinched him in the ass on the set of the original series while making fun of him about being gay.

I'm out my Peeps! Keep it real...hard.

Church Sign

Here is an interesting Church sign I saw on the way home from Indianapolis this past week.

Cathlocism Wow!

Big is that you?

I was checking out some of C.F. Payne's work online last night, he has been doing a illustration for Reader's Digest every month. At some point he must have seen Big Jim doing stand up.

If you look at the crowd it looks as though Chris put himself in the illustration. Apparently he must think Jim is funny.

I think he is funny too, not funny HA Ha though. Funny queer.
