"Holmes For The Holidays" -NEW Sherlock Game Trailer
Did you dig the first one? Well of course being that Warner Bros banked off of it (big time), part two wasn't far behind in the making! And this sequel not only picks up right were the last one left us, but it will be released on the SAME day as the first one did (Christmas day). I'm a huge Guy Ritche fan so you KNOW I'm standing on line for this one already!

"Tin Man & The Lion (Heart)"-Iron Man 2 and Robin Hood Review

I WAS gonna sit down and write out a long detailed review about both movies and thought to myself...Why? Both were equally disappointing, so if you STILL want my opinion okay then here it is...RENT'EM! It's either that or wait till they come out on Blu-Ray, or better yet watch'em on a long flight to WHERE EVER you maybe going in a few months. Both get 3 out of 5 M's! Real talk!Wednesday, January 6, 2010
"What's Good...Holmes!" -Shelock Holmes Review
Over the holidays, it seemed like a million movies were released around the same time. The ONLY two that even peaked my interest (at least enough to see in the theaters) was hyped up Avatar (NO, I didn't see it yet) and Guy Ritchie's Sherlock Holmes movie. Trust me I DO wanna see Avatar, but 2 hrs. standing in line for a 3 hr. movie...that can wait! So being that I've seen damn near EVERY Ritchie film, what should this be the exception? First off you notice is that mostly all of Guy's directorial quirks aren't so apparent in this one. Holmes takes on a different tone & (more polished) look than his previous films. The pace is quicker too, as the action comes on screen once the credits past. Thought the plot isn't as head scratching as say Usual Suspects, the set up still has you curious to what the bigger scheme of things to come are. All of the dry Brit humor & dialogue unique to that country are intact as well. Downey & Law casted as both Holmes & Watson destroys the stereotypes of the good old detective we've grown up to know. The film does a great job of setting up the relationship between the two as co-dependents of one another, a "bro-mance" if you will. Okay enough that stuff! Let me tell you my friend, the wardrobe dept. BETTER get an Oscar next year for this! I stood up and applauded afterwards, because each characters attire got MORE bananas the next scene. I GOTTA get this on Blu-Ray (not bootleg) DVD when it comes out, so I can study EVERY single detail. Awesomeness I tell you! All in all the movie was cool, you can definitely tell that it's a set up for 3 (maybe 4) more movies like this reveling a big plot and eviler villains. And if so, trust that I'll be glued to my seat, popcorn in one hand, pad in the other writing out all the wardrobe details I can get. LOL! I 3 out of 4 M's

"America Gets A New State"-Tracy Ullman's New Sketch Com
I guess Black IS really the NEW Black huh? Looks like everyone is doing "black face" this year. First Robert Downey now Tracy Ullman in her new show to air on Shotime titled "State of the Union." Ummm, is it cool now after years of racial tension it caused in the past? I seriously doubt that one, especially being that when it's done it never a positive character portrayal. It's more like an excuse to play a sterotype by "gettting into character." I'd be all for it if it was a dramatic role and the actor like REALLY pulled it off to where color wasn't an issue an nailed it. Like Charlize Theron did in "Monster"...Unrecognizable. I'd be cool with that. I know a jokes a joke but...Who is it on?

"On The Black Hand Side"-Robert Downey's Biggest Role Yet
This Summer actor Robert Downey Jr. will star in the two biggest (closely watched) roles of his career! He'll go from "Iron Man" to "Black Man" in the Ben's Stiller directed action movie, within a comedy movie titled "Tropic Thunder". Which pairs 3 famed actors (one comedian, one award-winning dramatic actor, and an action-film hero) together in a Vietnam movie, only to discover they've stumbled onto a "movie set" realer than expected. Hilarity ensues! I'm not one for comedies cause I tend to see the jokes being set up a mile away, but Jack Black! Ben Stiller! AND Downey! That's some funny ish right there peep the preview out and judge for yourself.The trailer is funny alone. (BTW that's Downey in the middle.)

"Heroes Aren't Just Sandwiches" - The Dark Knight & Iron Man Previews
Every once in a while I like to "Get my Geek on" and read info about upcoming comic based movies that I have some childhood connection to. At one time I was an avid comic book collector, and to this day I still have'em stacked away neatly in some boxes...in plastic. But no 40 year old virgin am I. I am legend (just ask somebody). Here's some tidbits I got wind off about Marvel and D.C.'s dueling Superhero flicks hitting the theaters (and yo pockets) soon. The first image is a scene from a straight to Blu-Ray DVD (July 8th) Japanimation / Anime film (Batman:Gotham Knight) bridging the gap between the 1st Bale Batman (Batman Begins) and the newest one (Dark Knight) coming out. The second is the latest trailer promoting the highly buzzed Iron Man movie. Cue the lights, popcorn and action!
