Metallica’s new website “Mission: Metallica”:

http://www.missionmetallica.com/

…will be launched tomorrow with more stuff on the site. The question is, what is the old Metallica logo doing back?

I think that’s a good enough sign that they are making a return to the old 80’s speed metal style.

Cool Video: Spin Doctors performing yesterday’s Tulip Fest…

Posted in music with tags , on May 11, 2008 by brocknroll

Couple of videos of Spin Doctors in Albany, N.Y. from yesterday! Enjoy! :)

Kev

Edit to Add: Does the audience look bored to death? Seems like they are talking throughout their set and not even cheering or even dancing to their music? Something tells me that Albany at that audience aren’t really Spin Doctors fans they are just there for outdoor entertainment?

Report: Indiana Jones game announced for PS3/Xbox?

Posted in Videogame news with tags , on May 11, 2008 by brocknroll

I was just browsing the Best Buy website for PS3 games and I came across something that surprised me. There is a new Indiana Jones game coming out for the PS3/Xbox. Above is a screen shot from the upcoming new game. Best Buy says it’s being released March 1st of 2009 but doing research in other videogame sites they all say the release date is “to be announced”.

You can see more screenshots here:

Not sure if Harrison Ford does the voice overs for Indy in the game or not, but either way, doesn’t matter, it’s great that a new Indiana Jones videogame is finally happening and I’ll be getting it when it comes out.

From all the screen shots I’ve seen, looks like this game is not based on any of the 4 films, the videogame looks to be a new original story.

Report: Miley Cyrus to make music with John Travolta?

Posted in Celebrity news, music with tags , , , on May 10, 2008 by brocknroll

Geez, the Miley Cyrus news just won’t end. It also seems that John Travolta wants to get back into music again. Travolta was a singer back in the 70’s/80’s, he went back into musicals by starring in ”Hairspray” musical movie and now it seems that he is interested in making music with Miley Cyrus.

The article doesn’t really say if they are dueting on one song or making an entire album together. Kelly Preston, Travolta’s wife revealed the news to E!

More on it here:

As long as Travolta doesn’t make her take off her clothes to her bra and panties while dancing on stage together, it’ll be okay!

Report: OJ Simpson drugged up and confessed to ex-manager…

Posted in Celebrity news, True Crime with tags , , on May 10, 2008 by brocknroll

Exclusively reported to the Associated Press, one of OJ Simpson’s former cronies named Mike Gilbert, a memoribilia dealer is releasing a book titled, “How I Helped O.J. Get Away With Murder: The Shocking Inside Story of Violence, Loyalty, Regret and Remorse” is being released in bookstores everywhere this coming Monday. The book is about 230 pages and will cost $27.95. In the book, is a tell all story of how Gilbert was hanging out with The Juice smoking weed, OJ was really high that he confessed to him that he murdered Nicole Brown and Ron Goldman.

OJ’s lawyer, Yale Galanter, of course responded to this saying that Gilbert is a delusional drug addict that is doing this for the money and saying he is having trouble paying taxes with the I.R.S. Gilbert was a die hard fan of Simpson’s football career ”before” his murder trial, that he and Simpson became friends, and doing business together.

The Associated Press Reports:

Gilbert will not be a delusional man if all of this turns out to be true. I think Gilbert is trying to help the Goldman’s and the Brown family, it isn’t about the money the way I see it.

Report: The Hef to Miley Cyrus, “Come pose naked for me on your 18th birthday, baby”…

Posted in Celebrity news with tags , , , on May 10, 2008 by brocknroll

The controversy of sexual revealing photos of 15 year old Miley Cyrus leaking online for the world to see is already grabbing the attention of Hugh Hefner. Hugh Hefner defended the photos saying there is nothing wrong with them and calling Americans a bunch of schizophrenics about sexuality in the media. The Hef welcomes and invites Miley Cyrus to bare it all in Playboy whenever she’s barely legal.

NY Daily News reports:

http://www.nydailynews.com/gossip/2008/05/09/2008-05-09_hugh_hefner_wants_miley_cyrus_in_playboy.html

Will Achy Breaky Billy Ray approve of this? Will Billy Ray be suspicious of an 82 year old man fantasizing of a 15 year old?

No, he’ll probably let her do it.

Film Review: Iron Man

Posted in movies with tags , on May 10, 2008 by brocknroll

Starring: Robert Donwey Jr., Gwyneth Paltrow, and Jeff Bridges

Directed by: Jon Favreau

 
Last night, I went to see the new “Iron Man” at a late showing. It really wasn’t one of my most anticipated films of the year, I saw it because it got good reviews and broke world records in box office. It actually took me a while to get interested in Iron Man because to be honest, I wasn’t interested in it at first. So I decided to check it out.

Robert Downey Jr. plays a business man and rich guy named Tony Stark. He goes on a trip with the Army in the Middle East, and then he suddenly suffered some life threatening danger there. Tony owns a weapons business where he makes a living off of and his goal to help saves lives in the world. Tony and the Army are being attacked in the Middle East by terrorist, Tony Stark decides to go on revenge by building an armor full of robotic weapons and flying equipment known as Iron Man.

As far as my thoughts on the movie goes, I thought it was pretty good and entertaining. Nothing amazing or great, but exceptionally good. I give credit for Marvel movies improving though. The fight scenes were entertaining but could be a little longer. Iron Man could have had a few more weapons. Jeff Bridges played a pretty good bad guy in the film. I also give credit to Robert Downey Jr’s good acting in the film.

While I thought “Iron Man” was pretty good, I’m sure there are even better movies coming out this year like “Indy 4″, “Prince Caspian”, “The Dark Knight”, “Wanted”, etc. I’m glad I went and saw “Iron Man” ’cause I came pretty close in waiting for DVD release.

“Iron Man” film score: *** (3 stars as in good)

Uma is just trying to protect her own ass by the suit Lancome filed against the Supreme court.

Seriously folks, you gotta understand “money and power” with these damn celebrities. Celebrities are control freaks.
