Harold and Kumar 2 Trailer!!!

Ok, there is not too much of a plot here but the movie still looks funny. Harold and Kumar are probably the smarter counterparts of Bevis and Butthead (or at least the live action version).

The title, Harold and Kumar 2: Escape from Guantanamo Bay, sums up what appears to be the basic plot line. Harold and Kumar are on their way to Amsterdam but thier bong (that they are trying to light up in the airplane bathroom) is mistaken as a bomb. They are thought to be terrorists and shipped off to Guantanamo Bay. Somehow they escape and end up in a car (again) with Neil Patrick Harris.

Sure, its a "stoner" movie, but its a funny "stoner" movie that will hit theaters on 26 April 2008

CompUSA rumor!

It saddens me to even think that CompUSA may be closing for good, but it looks like it very well may be happening. (And yes, I will be calling my friend that works at the local store tomorrow.)

Read here to find out more about another store that very well may be going the way of the dodo. http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/05/rumor-compusa-going-out-of-business-in-january/

Hopefully there will be some awesome sales coming in the future.

Sex and the City: The Movie Trailer

Its been a while since the ladies of Sex in the City have entertained us with their glamorous lives in New York City.

From the few things I have read about this movie, it looks like a movie length episode with all our favorite actors. Sarah Jessica Parker reprises her role as Carrie Bradshaw, Kim Cattrell as Samantha Jones, Cynthia Nixon as Miranda Hobbes and Kristan Davis as Charlotte York-Goldenblatt. Many of the supporting cast are also returning including Chris Noth known only to viewers as Mr Big. More cast and crew can been viewed here: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1000774/

As of now, the release date for the movie is 30 May 2008, which for anyone in the US, is the weekend AFTER Memorial Day.

Go Speed Racer, GO!

The first pictures of the new movie "Speed Racer" are out! This is NOT a cartoon but a live action movie.

It looks campy and quite cute, just like the old cartoons. Emile Hirsch is cast in the title role of Speed, Christina Ricci as Trixie, Matthew Fox as Racer X and, yes, a live monkey as Chim Chim and is directed by the Wachowski brothers, who brought us "The Matrix" trilogy. Full cast and crew info can be found at http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0811080/.

The trailer is scheduled to be played during “Entertainment Tonight” THIS EVENING!!!!

Sgt America or Miss America?

This is a first! One of the favored contestants in the 2008 Miss America pageant is a Sergent in the Army.

Miss Utah, also know as Sgt Jill Stevens serves in the Utah National Guard's 1st Battalion, 211th Aviation Regiment and attended nursing school at Southern Utah University. If that isn't enough, this amazing woman has been deployed to Afghanistan, caring for the troops over there and is a marathon runner, completing 12 so far.

If this GI Jill can't get her fellow troops motivated, I don't know if anyone can.

Sgt Stevens has a blog running about her experiences as she "fights" for the title of Miss AMerica. It can be found at http://www.army.mil/gijill/.
