AFRICAN AMERICAN TALENT SHOULD BOYCOTT CBS-VIACOM AND NBC UNIVERSAL

IF the African American Talent boycotts VIACOM and UNIVERSAL for one day by not showing up to work maybe then VIACOM AND UNIVERSAL would fire him. This means all the talent needs to boycott. Every African American that works for VIACOM & Universal & the Subsidiaries of VIACOM and Universal should not go to work on Monday April 23, 2007 the day the Don Imus is set to return from a 2 week vacation. That means recording artist should not record or appear on any show to promote their CD or movie. If they are crew members they should stay home. Its time for them to stand up and stomp out Don Imus.

WHY GRINDHOUSE WILL NOT BE RE-RELEASED AS 2 SEPARATE MOVIES IN THE USA

WHY GRINDHOUSE WILL NOT BE RE-RELEASED AS 2 SEPARATE MOVIES IN THE USA

It would cost the movie producers more money to strike new prints. They would also have to spend millions of dollars again on advertising. Harvey Weinstein is saying all sorts of things about re-releasing this again however to me he is just saying this to generate press on his movie.

The reason why the movie didn't click with viewers is many. From the length to lack of box office stars. I am one of the few that went to see this movie and I think the movie wasn't a hit is because it need to be a movie that should of opened in limited release and go wider later. Also a friend of mine said that the studio should of done this

1) Release the movie as 2 separate movies at the same time as true double feature. Have an intermission and then have the fake coming attractions. It would of been a true event then! Sitting for over 3hours is too hard for most people.

2) They should of played the movies in theatres that would of hung up fake posters for the movies in the coming attractions in "Grindhouse".

3) The movie was in tone with 1970's movies so they should of had the movie set in the 1970's. They also should of had people in there late 30's playing the parts of the girls that were in there twenty's

4) The sound of the movie should of been MONO here and there and have the voices be off here and there.

GRINDHOUSE REVIEW BY STAN HECK

Well let me start off with saying 9 out 10 movies that come out need to be edited down. There too long. In fact I think if "King Kong" & "Superman Returns" were each edited by 30 minutes they would of been bigger hits. "Grindhouse" is no exception but that doesn't mean its a bad movie its just too long. "Grindhouse" is 2 movies in 1. Both of these movies could have been edited down by about 20 minutes each maybe even more. The first movie "Planet Terror" suffers the most because the audience knows that the girl is going to get a machine gun leg. The second movie "Death Proof" suffers because there is endless talking. Out of four stars I give the movie 2 1/2 stars. Maybe now Hollywood will return to the good old days where movies were no longer than 2 hours!

BABY M and Marybeth Whitehead

I do not know what happened to this poor lady. In 1986 she was in the news everyday because she refused to give up the child she carried. She was a surrogate mother. After giving birth she was forced by the court to give up the child. So was later given visitation rights but where is she now? And like most women who get caught up in the court system she was given the raw deal.

Wherever you might be Ms Whitehead I wish you well.

Kimberly Mays Twigg Switched at Birth

I don't know whatever happen to this poor lady. I remember hearing about the case of this woman (she was switched at birth) and for years it seems she was popping up in the news. The TV MOVIE "Switched at Birth" was told from her parents (all of them) and their point of view.

If you know or if you are Kimberly Mays Twigg I think you should right a book from your point of view. If you do not want to enter the spotlight I understand. I just hope and wish that your okay. Believe or not you were in prayers of millions of people and chances are you still are.

THE MPAA SHOULD CHANGE THE NC-17

Okay most adults know the ratings do not work worth a shit. The MPAA hates any sex scenes in movies. Well most of the raters are republicans. However here is a quick and simple fix.

Get rid of NC-17. It doesn't work and it carries the stigma that the X rating had. The R rating is fine. If the movie is too strong for PG-13 then its an R. If the movie has very strong sexual images then the movie should be "16 & Over"

WOMEN PLEASE STICK UP FOR ONE ANOTHER

I don't care if your a woman and hate The Dixie Chicks. I think women need to stick up for other women. If your against Rosie for what she says that's fine but fuck defend her anyway for freedom of speech. Ann Coulter I hate the woman but I would never say "fire her" because I disagree with her. Don't you women see that it is the MEN OF THIS COUNTRY that want to keep themselves in power. From the boardroom to the white house. Men still want the power. Women you need to stop referring to other women as bitches whores sluts and everything else. Please stop. This makes it OKAY for men to call you these things and its NOT.

Women your on the verge of making this country great. Your close to getting the white house. I want you ladies to run this country. The men are not doing a good job and the need to go.

The men of this country still have the voices on the radio and all these men do is say is all BULLSHIT but yet nothing happens to them. They also rally against women. They hate women because they know that WOMEN ARE SMARTER THAN MEN!

Women you do nothing but tear apart one another. You also do not stick up for one another. Are women jealous of other women? Its a fact that talk radio hates women and that is why they went balls out attacking Rosie & The Dixie Chicks.

Women enough is enough. Please the next time you here another woman attacking another woman defend both of them but do not say ONE bad word to either one of them. Women voices are not herd enough . When you silence a woman the country suffers.

RIP BOB CLARK Director of A Christmas Story & Porky's

A drunk driver has killed the director of the holiday classic "A Christmas Story". Bob Clark and his son Ariel Hanrath-Clark died when the car they were in was struck by drunk driver in a SUV. The crash happened on Pacific Coast Highway. I grew up in California and PCH is a winding highway. The man who killed Bob (and his son) is named 24-year-old Hector Velazquez-Nava.

MY BIG FAT 40th BIRTHDAY by STan HEck

Well the day is here. I am 40. I remember when my mom & dad when they turned 40. I thought they were old now I think gee I had (and still do ) have young parents.

I thought 40 was middle age. Now I find out that middle age is 36. Whatever. What scares me is that I feel like I am still 22. I do not act 22 but I feel like I am 22. The mirror to me says I look 22 but then again I never have the lights on when I look in the mirror.

I am 40 today. Where did I go for lunch? Well McDonald's. It was my choice. I didn't have kids wanting to take me there but I wanted to go. Later it was off to the mall for Mrs Fields Cookies. Its nice to eat like a teen however later on I was paying for it. Thank god for Tums. The funny thing is when I woke up this morning I thought I was going to make 40 look fabulous instead I got a stomach ache FOR EATING LIKE 15 YEAR-OLD. Well I won't eat like a teen like this again. By the way what is in a bran muffin? Can I put chocolate on it?

I remember Linda Evans in the 1980's having that TV commercial saying "40 isn't Fatal". Well that's true however is 50 fatal?

PSYCHO II DELETED FOOTAGE WANTED

In the fall of 1981 I was in Hesperia Ca visiting my grandparents. Entertainment Tonight came on and aid "Robert Bloch" has written a sequel to his book Psycho. Well I was 14 at the time and I knew that "Psycho" was an old movie. (Hey I was a kid). Well in the same story there was an interview with Anthony Perkins or Robert Saying they think that Hitchcock would approve of the sequel. Well from that moment on I was waiting for the movie "Psycho II" even though I never saw or read the original movie.

In the spring of 1982 I saw the original "Psycho" for the first time when KTLA aired it. I would of rented the VHS however it was not available in my area. Anyway I loved it. For some reason I thought "Psycho" took place in a police station and we would see the story for different points of view with a big confession at the end. Don't ask me why I thought this. Well the movie scared the hell out of me but its not the shower scene that did that. ( I knew that it was coming & I was waiting for it after all it was 1983 the movie was a well known classic) . The part that scared me was when at the near end where Vera Miles doesn't know that Norman has knocked out Sam Loomis and he is running up the stairs and she is trapped in the house alone.

Well since that night the movie has been one of my favorites. I knew "Psycho II" was coming soon and I was more excited to see that then any other Summer movie including "Return of the Jedi".

By the time opening night came for "Psycho II" came I must have saw the original 10 times. I got the little jokes here and there in "Psycho II" in fact I knew something was up with the Meg Tilly character because of her characters name. Well I loved "Psycho II" ever since that night and I have been wanting more since.

So my question to the world is if you have alternate footage or scenes that never been shown to the public before then please go to the psychomovies.com and let them know it. They are working on a documentary of the psycho movies.

Also please note on e-bay I bought this binder of "PSYCHO II" stuff and it was like a scrapbook put together with lot of care. I love it however I would like to give it to the children of Anthony Perkins. They would enjoy it more then me. I want them to have it! if any of you know how to get in touch with them please post it here.

DIXIE CHICKS THE SMARTEST WOMEN IN AMERICA

If your the typical American idiot you will not see the documentary on "The Dixie Chicks". That's too bad but then again I am smarter than most people because I do think for myself. Now I was never a fan of this group because I do not like most country music. Most of them sing about "Being Proud Americans" and all that bullshit. After the controversy I bought their CD out of respect. I felt then as I do now that this group of women were taken apart because AMERICANS no longer have freedom of speech only in theory do AMERICANS have the right to free speech. Something that the assholes like Toby Keith forgets. Now if your a true American you will watch this movie and see the other side for once and hell you might learn something. I challenge you to see this movie. If you don't your a closed minded asshole who believes everything that FOX NEWS tells you. So if your not an asshole or an idiot then watch this. This documentary should scare you.

I admire these women. They are true American heroes. Just because that they said something in another country doesn't make them "UN-AMERICAN".

It makes them true Americans.

They also show us what true friendship is all about.

Before you get started I have a nephew in Iraq. I support him but I hate that we were fucking lied to & those lies got us into the war. Those lies may cost him his life. If he dies I blame every Toby Keith fan. I hope my nephew can put a boot up his ass one day.

WHATEVER HAPPENED TO THE R RATED MOVIE

It was not that long ago that HOLLYWOOD gave us an "R" rated movie that were made for adults and by adults. "WALL STREET", "FATAL ATTRACTION" are just 2 examples. These movies were popular and made money. Now every movie seems to be PG-13. Maybe this is why ADULTS don't go to the movies anymore. Adults (if they choose to see a movie ) have to put up with children and teens on their blackberry's and cellphones because everyone can see a PG-13 movie.

NBC WILL HAVE LAW AND ORDER IN 2007-2008

Next year will be the last year for the long running "Law & Order".

The show has spawned 3 spin-offs and has given careers to many people. Lots of actors, directors and writers owe Dick Wolf a huge thank you. Now the show has had more cast changes than a soap opera however the actors who have left the show have never said a bad word about the show or its producer "Dick Wolf". That is a miracle. As everybody knows all shows do come to an end. "Law And Order" is no exception. So The 2007-2008 TV season will be the last year of the long running show. NBC is treating this long running show with respect for its final year by making it into a TV EVENT. So fans of the drama will be in for a treat. NBC/Universal is going to be doing one of the following:

Have lots of 2 part episodes or The show will return in a 2hr movie format as part of the NBC Mystery Movie .

Now next year would not of even been possible had NBC had better ratings. In fact NBC has not introduced a NEW Hit Show in years, even its talked about hit "Heroes" doesn't even crack the top 10. Because NBC lacks in hit shows it was forced to renew "Law and Order" and the fans are going to love the final year.

Here is what is being said: "The final season will return but have lots of returning past cast members. These episodes will reunite past stars with the latest cast members. Old cases with the bad guys who ended up in prison are now out on probation & now will be making all sorts of trouble with the NEW cast members.

The show has been on since 1990 and has lots of old characters that they can revisit. MOST past cast members have expressed interest in reprising their roles. The only exception is the late Jerry Orbach who passed away a few short years ago. Sounds like this will be an exciting final year. I'll be watching.

Here is a rumor of the season opener for 2007-2008

The opening episode of the 2007-2008 starts of with a bang. Its a fundraiser for FORMER New York City Mayor Rudolph William Giuliani. All hell breaks loose. In fact at the event is 2 former DA'S of the fictional DA office. The season opener would feature the the return Steven Hill & Diane Wiest for this episode. Also 2 other charectors return which are Mike Logan & Rey Curtis. These parts were played by Chris Noth & Benjamin Bratt. Bratt's charector is now a private investigator who is trying to figure out who the target was at the fundraiser. It is not known how long Bratt would stay on.

The only thing that is not set is what night the show will air. On Fridays the shows ratings are only so-so. Another school of thought is that "Law and Order" may return as late as January. If this happens Law and Order will air as 2 hr movies on Sundays. The reason for the January launch is because NBC airs football on Sunday Nights in the fall and they need something for Sundays when football is over. (ABC HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH MONDAY'S AFTER FOOTBALL SEASON) NBC this year did great with FOOTBALL on Sundays however since FOOTBALL SEASON ended they have very low ratings. NBC needs a hook for Sunday Night once Football season is over. This is the main reason for NBC to be returning the "Mystery Movie".

The Mystery Movie will also appeal to the male audience. That demographic is up for grabs after FOOTBALL season and NBC wants to hold on to them! NBC KNOWS They can cast the "Mystery Movies" with big stars. If the "Mystery Movie" becomes a hit, it will be an event to wait for. FOX does this when it premieres "24" and "American Idol" in January.

NBC also knows well written parts can get "HUGE STARS". The "Mystery Movie" was a huge hit in the 1970's. In case you don't know the "Mystery Movie"is a rotating Wheel of TV detective shows. The original three series featured were "Columbo", "McMillan and Wife" and "McCloud". Having the all new Mystery movie format return in January would be a good idea for NBC. January is a month in which CBS and ABC air repeats of their TV SHOWS. Having New Shows on Sundays will give NBC a competitive edge until the February Sweeps. I wish them luck.

THE NEW POLTERGEIST DVD THE TRUE STORY YES STEVEN SPIELBERG DIRECTED IT

POLTERGEIST THE REAL STORY YES STEVEN SPIELBERG DIRECTED IT




You know its coming! I don't know what will be on the DVD as an extra however I hope we get the truth in a documentary!

This what I want to see in a documentary: The fights between Tobe Hooper and Steven Spielberg on the direction of the movie!

I have been told Steven Spielberg did direct or re-directed the movie. One scene that was re-shot by Steven Spielberg involving the search for Carol Anne. As it was told to me the scene shot by Tobe Hooper went like this: The parents trying to figure where Carol Anne is the mother yells "The swimming pool, the swimming pool". Well the father (played by Craig T Nelson) then run to the pool and starts scraping the pool (which is still being constructed) with a rake! Yes the pool was a mud pit but however Steven Spielberg hit the roof! He re-shot the scene this time the dad jumps into the pool of mud looking for his daughter!

The movie was on the "Hollywood Radar" because rumors of Steven's so called interference! Rumors were also going around that the production offices of the movie were bugged!
By who? Who knows? Who cares? Well hell I do! I love this type of shit! Will these stories surface on a DVD documentary? I doubt it! Hollywood King "Steven Spielberg" will put a stop to anything that he feels is not portraying him in a positive way!

I do know for a fact that a friend of mine worked on the movie and to this day still can not watch the movie because of all the re-directed footage.

He points out that if you watch the movie more closely you will notice its FLAWS. The major one is that when the 3 scientist arrive the father shows them the children room and all the toys flying around. The way he opens the doors the audience knows that this has been going on for awhile. However this is the only time we see this happening until Diane enter the closet to rescue Carol Anne.

To me If he Steven S. has nothing to hide lets address the production rumors & controversy! Let Tobe Hooper do a commentary! Some how it will be a white wash! To bad! A true documentary on "The Making of Poltergeist" would be a must see event of the year! Forget "Spider-Man 3" this is what I want to see! However what bad blood that was between Tobe & Steven must have been water under the bridge by 2002. This is when Tobe Hooper worked with Steven Spielberg again on the mini-series "Taken" directing a 2hr segment of the mini series!

HOWARD THE DUCK THE REMAKE

HOWARD THE DUCK IS RETURNING TO SILVER SCREEN

George Lucas has been trying for years to distant himself from this movie. The only other project that has his name on it that he despises is the "Star Wars Holiday Special". Well news has come out the Nickelodeon films and Pacific Images (who do the SHERK Movies with Dreamworks) or going to do another edition of "Howard The Duck".

Mike Myers is said to be interested. George wants the movie to be done the correct way. A CGI HOWARD THE DUCK or a CARTOON/Computer Animation might make it work this time. George got the idea after viewing a CGI "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" movie he thought the time is right for a new introduction of Howard. APRIL FOOLS this is all bullshit
