Cookie Monster Batman Meets With Inspector Gordon

Here is a viral video going around of Cookie Monster revealing himself as Batman. One of the most commonly recognizable characteristics of him is his gravelly, growling voice. In the first few Christopher Nolan’s “Dark Knight” film series, Batman’s voice was a little more than just rough and gravelly and drew large debate which is what recently sparks this viral video.

I personally do not mind his voice, I enjoy the movie and move on at the end of the day. I am not saying they could have noticed it early and had him change his voice a little, but it is over and done with. It is a good series and Christian Bale is great as Batman too.

Kevin Conroy, the voice of Batman in the 1990s FOX animation series, discussed the topic at length at Chicago’s pop culture conference C2E2 in 2008 and said the following:

“Christian Bale is an excellent actor, he just got steered wrong,” Conroy commented. “Obviously someone should have stopped him and said, ‘You sound ridiculous.”

While Conroy’s comments were applauded, there was one reader that posted such character direction was inspired by the original comics:

“The growling voice is not an original idea: it is referenced in the comics,” Brad wrote on screenrant.com. “In “Knightfall”, Robin makes a reference to Batman’s “gravelly” voice while talking to Nightwing. Yes, the purpose is two-fold: cover his identity, and to be intimidating. I grew up watching Batman on television, and wondered why no one recognized the voice of well-known Bruce Wayne.”

The Expendables 2 Review

Earlier this afternoon I went and saw The Expendables 2 with my brother and honestly, it was fucking awesome. I very much enjoyed it and I did definitely got my monies worth from it. I even enjoyed it more than the first one, which I still love.

I have read some reviews, from all over the place, and while I understand people have their own opinions, this movie was just not as terrible as these reviewers are describing it as. If you do not think you are going to like the movie going into it, then why see it? If it is purely because you have to review it, then for fuck sakes at least take the movie for what it is and think it is the worst movie out there, because I can definitely name movies that are far much worse that have been made. There are so many out there yet alone with endings that just do not make sense or have one at all.

The reason why I enjoyed this movie so much is because I grew up watching with each one of these actors in the movie, I have watched each and every movie of theirs more than I will ever be able to count for per each movie. You can simply just ignore the fact that it is a hollywood movie; that you may think just wants money as we all do, and enjoy that either all, most of your favorite stars or that they are all on-screen together which does not happen very often at all, yet alone twice or possibly now three times.

The movie has nearly all the classic quotes/lines you heard growing up, just like the first movie and making jokes at them too. This I love the most and how can you not? Each of these actors are getting old, which saddens me a lot because there will come a day that each one of these actors will stop making films. Sylvester Stallone, Bruce Willis and Arnold Schwarzenegger are the main three, while you already very seldom see Jean-Claude Van Damme, Chuck Norris and Dolph Lundgren as it is.

Getting back to the movie action, as far as the action and writing in the movie goes, I thought it was great. I personally think there was even more action than the first one because each time I watch it, I am always left wishing there had been more action. I loved that there was more scenes with Terry Crews and his semi-automatic shotgun as well as all the other actors especially at the end of the movie.

Overall, you can tell I loved The Expendables 2 and it was a pure bad-ass movie. I highly recommend seeing it if you would love this movie, loved the first or you love all or some of the actors in it.

Godzilla reboot in 2014

Legendary Pictures teased everyone at Comic-Con of the upcoming Godzilla Reboot scheduled for release in 2014! I am absolutely excited to hear about this. I cannot wait till we see an actual trailer of this movie later on and who will be casted.

However I really would much have preferred Godzilla 2 instead. If no one remembers the ending credits of Godzilla with Matthew Broderick, Jean Reno and Maria Pitillo their was still 1 baby Godzilla that hatched even after the bombers blew up Madison Square Garden.

According to those who saw the teaser at Comic-Con, it made the 1998 version look like a walk in the park.

“There’s nothing ‘sci-fi’ about this movie,” director Gareth Edwards told the crowd. “It’s all very realistic, down to Earth.” The trailer was not without Godzilla’s classic roar. The Hall H crowd roared themselves, in approval, which Edwards said almost made him cry.`

Assassin’s Creed III World Gameplay Premiere

Ubisoft promised that we would get to see the first Assassin’s Creed III gameplay footage if they received enough “Likes” on their Facebook page, and now since they have, here is the footage! It is fucking great too.

There is a lot to take in here, one of the first things you may likely notice in the trailer is that Assassin’s Creed III looks different from its predecessors thanks to a new and improved engine, which Ubisoft is calling “AnvilNext.”

Said engine allows for some very impressive animations, which you’ll see for yourself in the Assassin’s Creed III trailer. The protagonist, Connor, can be seen dashing fluidly into a window, over a table, and out another window. For me, this is probably the best part in the trailer.

We also get to see a few of the kill moves Connor will be using to dispatch his enemies in Assassin’s Creed III, and it looks to be as brutal as ever–which is a good thing, I’d say. Not a whole lot of actual combat is shown, however, so we’ll have to sit tight for that.

The Expendables 2 – Debut Trailer

Words cannot describe how badly I want to see this fucking movie! Just watch the fucking trailer to find out why! Also do not forget the following badass actors are in this movie: Sylvestor Stallone, Jason Statham, Terry Crews, Randy Couture, Dolph Lundgren, Bruce Willis, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Liam Hemsworth, Chuck Norris, Jet Li and Jean-Claude Van Damme (plays the bad guy!).

Bears 2012 Schedule

The Chicago Bears released their 2012 schedule a few hours and this is what we have! I overall like the schedule and the teams we will be facing during the regular season. I think we have a chance, especially with our new roster, to make the playoffs and a run for the Super Bowl. After all, we do have Brandon Marshall, one of the best fucking wide receivers right now! He will be joining Jay Cutler again, they have great history together.

American Reunion Review

Last night I went and saw the midnight premiere of American Reunion with my girlfriend Jordan and my brother. It was fucking awesome and absolutely hilarious to say the least! It definitely exceeded my expectations and I would definitely say it was a good as American Pie, if not better than it.

While it does not take much for me to laugh, I laughed through the entire movie. The directors Jon Hurwitz and Hayden Schlossberg (whom did the Harold and Kumar movies) did a great job keeping it true to what we have all come to love, enjoy and the laughter along with Executive Producers (and anyone else!) Jason Biggs and Seann William Scott.

I would highly recommend nearly anyone go see it especially if you have always enjoyed the true American Pie movies, if you have not seen them you might want to go watch 1, 2 and 3 before you see this one.

A Good Day to Die Hard

Another Die Hard movie? Fuck yes! While I somewhat enjoyed the last Die Hard movie, Live Free or Die Hard, it was still bizarre to me. Die Hard movies are still fun to watch and Bruce Willis is a fucking badass actor anyways.

The villains will likely be set as Sebastian Koch and Yuliya Snigir, pictured here. Also casted is Cole Hauser (Chase, K-Ville) and Jai Courtney (Spartacus) have also joined the cast. I hope Cole Hauser is good in his role as he equally gets casted good or bad in his roles and Jai plays John McClane’s son.

If you did not already guess by my title, the movie is called “A Good Day to Die Hard.”
