Kobe the real life Hancock ?


Let's see, he lives in LA, his crossover is faster than a locomotive, he's able to leap tall players in a single bound, able to drop 81 points in a single game. Yet people still don't like him ? No matter how many time's he "Saves the Day" people just find a reason to hate him even more. That sounds a lot like another black super hero we know. Lately the Lakers have been playing a less "Kobe gonna save the day" oriented offense but despite their great record they lack the punch they need to really put teams a way. It's cool they're trying to do the whole "team" thing and portray a more kinder, gentler, team-oriented Kobe for the public (just like Hancock) but you don't need your most powerful weapon on safety while the HEAT is on hahaha. (Pun intended). Kobe needs to switch from Hancock to Jet Li from Unleashed and take the collar off so he can wreck shop. It remains to be seen if Kobe continues to play like Will Smith or Agent Smith.



Marbury World Order (M.W.O)



Well then, it seems as though Starbury's Knickerboker woes continue to escalate. It seems that he's been banned from attending all team functions yet he's still getting paid. This seems like the perfect time to start the Marbury World Order (M.W.O) movement. Hopefully if he gets voted into the All-Star game he can make his debut there by removing his jersey and revealing the new M.W.O one. At this point he'll be joined by the rest of the exiled nba players that have joined his movement:

Current Roster:

-----------------------

Ron Artest (do you even have to ask)
Jermaine O'Neal (him and Artest make the perfect tag team giving that 1-2 punch, literally)
Antoine Walker (has just been bought out of his Grizzlies contract so we're just waiting on him to flip)

Smush Parker (No means No Smush)

Ben Wallace (The Beast from the East)
Latrell Sprewell (for security just in case them 60 year old coaches try to get bout it)
Allen Iverson (The Answer to a question nobody asked)
Darius Miles (just one drug violation away from re-inventing the term 'Shake and Bake')

Isaiah Thomas as the Coach (He just called her a bitch, not a black bitch)
Dennis Rodman as the General Manager (the glue that holds the dysfunction together)

And as their membership grows they can even form their own expansion team. That would definitely give the NBA a ratings boost because people would always watch anticipating when they will wild out and beat somebodys ass hahahaha.

Thing's I've learned / wondered about Heroes Season 3 (Spoiler Alert)



1. Mohinder has officially been promoted from boo-boo the fool to complete moron. I guess it's the whole "people that have books smarts don't have common sense" thing.

2. Sylar needs counseling, he has relationship and abandonment issues, maybe he needs to go talk to Dr. Phil

3. Mama Petrelli is E-V-I-L


4. Nathan acts like he hasn't gotten any in a while, he got a little too evil too quick. I don't understand why he goes to the President with a mandate to hunt down
people with gifted abilities when he and most of the people in his family are one of them. It's funny how he went to a black man for help in hunting down his own people hahaha.

5. Claire went from being a cute little cheerleader to a highly skilled killer (I blame the Internet)


6. Peter is still Peter
, but with a scar

7. Family will screw you over worse than any one else


8. Hiro is a Hero


9. Tracy Strauss is COLD and Meredith (Claire's biological mom) is HOT. (No Pun intended)


10. Noah Bennett is kinda like a crazy, middle aged, Batman


11. Never trust anyone with fire coming out of their hands


12. When your dad (who's apparently come back from the dead) tells you to come give him a hug it's probably not a good idea


13. Criminals who escape from a high level security facility designed to hold people with super-powers that set out to stop evil politicians are the real good guys


14. Sylar couldn't kill Claire even if he wanted to, she's far too special
. But he sure ripped that Veronica Mars chick a new one !!!!

15. The Petrelli's need to attend family counseling

16. No one on this show seems to get along with their siblings, or their parents for that matter


17. Who's looking after Molly ?


18. You don't need special powers to be a Hero, but you need people with special powers in order to make a show called "Heroes"


19. How come we see Sylar steal all these powers from people but only uses 1 or 2


20. Doyle (The Puppet Master) seems like he'd make a great sex offender

The Day The Dude Stood Still


Ok. I'm normally a fan of these type of remakes as it's usually good to see a modern day take on a sci-fi movie from way back when. From the previews everything looked cool and it seemed more than fitting to have Mr. Matrix himself portraying the lead role of the emotionless one-dimensional personality having alien named Klatuu, especially since it sounds so much like his real name LOL. The movie got off to a great start creating a feeling of suspense and impending doom for the planet. Then after that the movie becomes one long episode of Reading Rainbow with Keanu replacing Lavar Burton's educational narrative with drunk Mr. Miyagi-ish qoutes such as when Will Smith's son asks him "What are we supposed to do during a war, stay and fight ? or run away ?" and he responds "It doesn't matter because there is nothing you can do". I don't want to spoil anything or give too much away but I'll just say that as with other Hollywood movies that came out in recent times this movie wasn't quite what you would expect, especially considering who's in it (Keanu Reeves) and the way it was advertised. It kind of reminds me of Hancock in that regard. So if you going into this movie thinking you're gonna see another (Independence Day / The Day After Tomorrow / Armageddon) then you may wanna look else where.
