Pre quel to New Star Trek Movie.
OK so the writers of the new Trek movie published a one shot graphic novel. It features Captain Data, Picard, Spock, Worf, and one or 2 other Next Gen characters. It really is a great lead in to the movie. I was trying to figure out how they were going to tie everything together and this really makes sense.
Its called STAR TREK Countdown...get it.

Green Lantern DVD
DC keeps putting out really good animated movies on dvd. GL is one of my favorite characters. Im just so glad those old Jack Black rumors as being a jokey Green Lantern.
Another New U2 Album?
Hopefully this one will not suck like "No Line"
U2 lead singer Bono has told Rolling Stone magazine the band plans to have another new record out in late 2009 or early 2010. Eno offered no further details about these new sessions, but one possibility is these are aimed at finishing that new record. Songs of Ascent is the title of the planned LP and while most details about it are sketchy, Bono has apparently already chosen "Every Breaking Wave" to be its first single.
Music Made From Sand
I don't understand this at all but it's cool.

MLB: The Show
I noticed the other day as I was playing MLB: THE SHOW, The NY METS were playing the San Diego Padres in the opening day at Citi Field during the day. Not at night like how it is really going to be played tommorrow.. Why can the video game get the opening day done the right way and the real MLB screws it up? Lets Go Mets...
Terminator Season (Series?) Finale
If that was the end of the Sarah Connor Chronicles at least it ended on a high note. We finally got some action (after that whole boring Sarah lies in bed four-episode sweep) with Cameron shooting up a prison the way Arnold used to do back in the day.
John Connor wound up in the future, after Judgement Day, where nobody has heard of John Connor and Cameron seems to be a human. The only down note was that the writers did the lame reset-button trick, and Brian Austin Green is alive in this future...totally undercutting last week's shocking bullet to the head.
Terminator is increasingly becoming "Sliders" where each earth has it's own similar but different version of history. How long until the T-888's fight the Kro-Mags?
I hope this one comes back, but if it doesn't it is the fault of the writers who had a really drag-ass middle of the season.
If I were Fox I'd rush this one back about five minutes after the movie comes out, and just call the show "Terminator."

I really think they nailed this movie. I'm shocked but tremendously excited.
I've watched this clip 50 times.

WWE DRAFT
The WWE Draft is Monday. Hopefully this will make the brand separation will stick this time. Ever since the attitude era ended and the WWE's shows are now rated pg/pg-14 they have become stagnant. Hopefully there will be some really big changes and smart moves to get new feuds and the shows to feel fresh again. Maybe The Undertaker will end up on RAW and Rey Mysterio goes to SMACKDOWN. THE BRIAN KENDRICK and R- TRUTH to ECW. Evan Bourne to RAW . DH SMITH TO RAW. TJ KIDD AND NATALYA to RAW to team with DH SMITH to either form The Canadian Bulldogs or the THE New Hart Foundation so they can feud with Legacy. Its always an exciting time with the draft and I hope it delivers.
Terminator: Salvation
I was kind of iffy to see this..Then I heard Christian Bale was going to be in it. I was like ok, at least a DVD movie. Now the viral promotion started with the websites and the emails I started to get more and more hooked...With this trailer that just came out I am hooked. You Tube wouldn't let me embed it but heres the link.

Star Trek Clip Released In Ireland : You Haven't Seen This One
I can't even embed it but click this link....cool scene of Kirk getting under Spock's skin!
Terminator Gets Good....Too Late
I'm late on this (sorry, busy) but wow Terminator TV (The Sarah Connor Chronicles) was amazing last week.
Why?
Because like three minutes in they killed off whichever Reese (Kyle?) Brian Austin Greene was!
Not a fake death. Not a dream. Not something undone by time travel. Bang dead.
Not even a heroic death. Just a random killing by a Terminator! Awesome!
The middle of this season was awful. My thumb was getting quite a workout on the fast forward button what with the stupid girlfriend and hot Sarah being in bed all the time....zzzzzzz.
Then they found their way with the submarine episodes, then last week's killing!
Unfortunately tomorrow night is the season finale....and the ratings are horrible.
Let's hope Fox sees the wisdom of keeping this show around. It would be stupid to kill it off right before a new Terminator movie which looks like it will re-invigorate the franchise (T3 wasn't that bad folks, it just wasn't as good as T2...but what third movie in a trilogy is? Jedi? ha!).

FLIP VIDEO CAMERA
I bought myself the FLIP video camera last week. I picked it up to bring it to shoot Citi field and upload onto here and facebook, I have to say it was pretty easy to use and to even transfer onto the computer. Its not in the caliber of a 3ccd chip camcorder but more like what you can shoot on one of your point and shoot digitals..But I was still impressed by it. So if you want to capture some moments on video and not have to schlep around a handicam pick this up. I have the 60 minute version where there is no tape or chip and the video is held on a hard drive in the camera.Another bonus you run out of juice, jut switch out the 2 double a batteries with new ones and your good to go..

Fast and FURIOUS Soundtrack review from IGN
Fast & Furious Soundtrack Review
Will these hip hop tracks get your motor running?
by Finn White
March 31, 2009 - The soundtrack to Fast & Furious, the fourth installment in The Fast And The Furious film franchise, is a strong compilation of hip hop and dance tunes and sounds exactly the way an action-packed urban underground car-racing movie should.
From beginning to end the music stays on point, invoking images of fast driving, growling engines, hot asphalt, exploding testosterone, and gorgeous bad girls with a thing for dangerous men.
The album kicks off with it's best track, "Bang," an adrenaline-pumping collaboration between M.I.A. (the multi-talented UK rapper that broke into mainstream awareness when "Paper Planes" featured in the trailer for Pineapple Express and later on the soundtrack to Slumdog Millionaire) and her prot?g? Rye Rye.
Busta Rhymes contributes "G-Stro," a nasty but irresistible club anthem almost certain to become a hit. Check your gentlemanly politics at the door or watch your normally respectable girlfriend shake her undies for all the guys with a better sense of humor.
- Universal
Most of the rest of the album has a distinct latin flavor, dominated by team-ups with Cuban-American hip hop and reggaeton artist, Pitbull. The best of these is "Blanco" featuring super-producer Pharrell. With a high-energy dance beat and rallying brass bridge, it delivers an infectious fiesta vibe. "Krazy" featuring rapper Lil John and "You Slip, She Grip" featuring Puerto Rican rapper Tego Calder?n keep the party going. They put a smile on your face and get your body moving, but are less memorable.
Also of interest is a gangsta's bedroom interpretation of Madonna's "La Isla Bonita." It has novelty value and is sure to play during the film's main getting-it-on scene, but the vocal performance by Tasha is a little emotionally flat.
Overall, the Fast & Furious soundtrack is a worthy listen, serving a few standout tunes, rounded out by solid, thematically consistent material with only a couple weak songs.

WrestleMania 25 is this weekend.
For the 25th anniversary of the "Super Bowl" of Wrestling, It seems to be lame. I am only looking forward to 2 matches and the rest of the card is a joke.. Do we really need Mickey Rourke there? The ladder in the match is always a great match and the way they are building Triple H vs Orton is brilliant. I just have a feeling for most of the 4 hrs ill be bore
