Well, according to Bloody Disgusting, Rob Zombie is in talks to be directing a new Conan the Barbarian film! Here’s the details, and read on if you want the rest of the story:
"Are you guys ready for this?! This afternoon we have confirmed 100% that Rob Zombie has been taking meetings with Lionsgate and Nu Image to get behind the director’s chair for their upcoming Conan film! In my humble opinion I think this is fantastic news as I’d love to see Zombie depart from direct horror for a bit and show us what he can do outside of the genre. The first film, which starred Arnold Schwarzenegger, really could use a companion piece and I think adding a darker element to the mix could be pretty awesome. We’ll let you know if anything becomes signed, but your feedback could help make this happen."
Cold be damned, I’m going to review some friggin’ beer! This next brew goes by the name of Raison D’Etre from the amazing Dog Fish Head brewery out of Delaware. I will go on record as saying that Dogfish Head is one of the finest micro-breweries in America, and their beers are more often hits rather than misses. This one is brewed as a Belgian Style Strong Ale and was even hailed as "American Beer of the Year" in January 2000 in Malt Advocate Magazine. Any beer thats good enough to hold that title has to be good right? Read on to find out:
I was planning on writing a beer review tonight, but I feel like absolute shit. I’m pretty sure I caught a cold or something because my nose is dripping like faucet and I’ve been sneezing non stop. I didn’t think downing a beer would be appropriate for my current condition. None the less, I might as well share some funny stuff with you folks.
I’m sure you’ve seen the recent commercials of the "Whopper freakouts" where Burger King tells its customers that it no longer sells the Whopper. Come to think of it, thats a pretty asshole move to do to your customers, but thats neither here nor there. Anyway, this video was done as a parody of that featuring fake freakouts "ghetto style", whatever that means. Anyway, its funny as hell, check it out:
Horror movies have always been known to take real-life situations where people are vulnerable and turn them into something scary. Playing on people’s natural fears is proven way to make people scared, and its become the basis to nearly every horror film since the shower scene in Psycho. Whether its people shitting bricks when thinking about swimming in the ocean due to Jaws, or kids afraid to fall asleep because of Freddy Krueger in A Nightmare on Elm Street, you can’t deny cinema’s power to take ordinary situations and turn them into something terrifying. However, there are times when horror movies are stretching things just a bit to make movie-goers uncomfortable. Let’s explore some movies that take seemingly normal situations in life, and turning them into something INSANELY TERRIFYING! (and most of the time failing miserably):
Here it is, my very first beer review featuring Coopers Vintage Ale . Let me preface this by saying that much like my movie reviews, I like to keep things simple here as well. I’ll keep the "beer jargon" to a minimum here, and just tell you if the beer is worth your time. Additionally, I’m not going to go on a scale of 1 - 10 like the movie reviews, but rather have word ratings. I’d also like to add that many Australian members of some message boards I post on claim that Australian beer is superior to American beer. Well if you want to find out if these guys are blowing smoke up my ass, read on!
