Beyond the Plot

I have never been a fan of any movie Quentin Tarantino has been associated with due to their obscene violence and their useless sexual content. However, against my will I went to see Machete last night. The movie started off with tons of blood and a naked chick pulling a cell phone from her vagina. In my head I'm thinking "Here we go with this nonsense...", but as the movie progressed I actually found myself enjoying it.

Machete's cast has nothing but familiar faces:

• Danny Trejo as Machete ( I never knew his name until now but I've known his face for quite some time)
• Jessica Alba 
• Michelle Rodriguez 
• Daryl Sabara (He was cute in the first Spy Kids movie, not so much in the second one. I almost didn't recognize him in this film. He is a full grown man now) 
• Lindsay Lohan (A friend and I spent five minutes during the movie debating whether she was actually nude or was it a body double...) 
• Robert De Niro 

This movie was directed by Robert Rodriguez as a spinoff of Grindhouse and is in theaters now. 

I hadn't watched LOST for two years until last night when the final episode aired. It was supposed to be the one episode that gave you all the answers to everything you been wondering about the island and the people who were on it. Since I hadn't watched the show in so long I expected that I would be somewhat lost but I felt I should know enough to understand what was happening. Man, was I wrong. 

On Sunday nights I hate to love these three new shows on VH1:

• Brandy & Ray J: A Family Affair
• I can't believe how much VH1 loves to keep Ray J on the air season after season with two seasons of For The Love and Ray J and now this new show with his parents and sister Brandy. It follows Brandy and Ray J as they learn the ends and outs of the music industry as a business from their manager/mother Sonja Norwood. Sonja is the realest part of this "reality" show. For some reason I just love watching grown people getting yelled at by their mother. Pure entertainment for me. 
• Basketball Wives 
• Now this show sounds like it should be about the wives of NBA Basketball players. It turns out to be about bitter ex-wives and soon to be ex-wives who try to poison the mind of the one wife who seems be happily married. Lets hope they don't succeed. 
• What Chilli Wants 
• What to say, what to say about this show? Oh Chilli (from singing group TLC) why can't you find a man? Maybe its because your standards are ridiculously high. He can't smoke, can't drink. can't eat pork, must have six-pack abs, and the list goes on forever. Usher's divorced now. Why don't you just go back to him? I'm going to keep watching until you end up with him. And i'm glad you decided Floyd Mayweather wasn't for you. Keep it moving. 

All these shows air back to back starting at 9pm EST on Sunday's on VH1.

Tuesday night has become my new favorite night of television. At first all it had was American Idol but it was starting to bore me. Then two weeks ago Glee returned and saved the day and now tonight is the premiere of the final season of The Hills. I know I blogged about this before but I am still that excited. 


My LineUp: 
1. American Idol at 8pm on FOX
2. GLEE at 9pm on FOX
3. The Hills at 10pm on MTV

Make sure you pick up Avatar on DVD or Blu-ray this week. I would recommend getting this movie on blu-ray due to its stunning graphics and visual effects. It is truly a wonderful movie and perfect for Earth Day.

New on DVD....

Going to be snowed in for Valentines Day?

Pick up a DVD...

The Ugly Truth
This movie is fantastic from beginning to end. Absolutely hilarious. It stars Knocked Up's Katherine Heigl and Gerard Butler from the movie 300. Butler's character gives dating and relationship advice to Heigl's character, giving her insight into how men think and what they want in a women. From what I hear his advice is very true to life. So pay attention girls! This movie is perfect for V-day! Just look at the hearts on the movie poster...Haha.

Walking into this movie I really had no idea what it was about. No spoilers here so no worries. When the movie began I thought that it was gonna be a movie about the devil or something like that but it turned out there were only Angels and No Demons in this film. Basically the movie is about Angels who have been sent by God to kill the next "baby Jesus" because God has lost faith in mankind. Now the way the angels went about doing this was very interesting cause these angels were far from any angels I have ever heard of. They were cursing and dropping F bombs and saying things like "you're all gonna f**king burn." But once you get over that, the movie is actually very good. I would recommend it for the storyline and the scare factor (for the easily frightened). Here is a link to the trailer: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tGE_zSdCzDU
