ghost brothers of darkland county



There comes a time when you have to ask yourself, is telling the truth the right thing to do?


From the minds of John Cougar Mellencamp, Steven King and T. Bone Burnett comes a tale of Fraternal love, Jealousy and Revenge. Set in lake Bell Veue 2 ghosts named Andy and Jack who died in an apparent murder/suicide in 1967 have to reconcile their differences and convince their younger brother who is now a father with two feuding kids of his own to recount the tragedy of what got their fathers brothers killed during the fatal episode in 67 before time's up.

It all just.....slips away.......like silk, like silk

Gravity


Does the idea of drifting in space terrify or excite you?

George Clooney stars as veteran astronaut Matt Kowalsky and Sandra Bullock stars as Dr. Ryan Stone that pegs the question " If you were left in the dark void of outer space where all gravity and all oxygen were lost to you, what would you do? Give in or find a way to prevail through the most horrific moment in your life?. 6 out of 10, their were a lot of moments in this movie where you'll end up thinking yea like that would ever happen. But all in all it does make for a good movie that will make you think about survival.

Pacific Rim









http://www.blackfilm.com/read/wp-content/uploads/2013/05/Pacific-Rim-6.jpg

Stacker Pentecost:   Today at the edge of our hope, at the end of our time.  We have chosen to believe in each other!  Today we face the monsters that are at our door, today we are cancelling the apocalypse!
This is another one of  Guillermo Del Toro's attempt on book based movies, he does good but the two giant's in this movie the robot Yaeger and the sea monster Kajju might REALLY freak out the kids. So you can probobly tell one might need a babysitter if you're going out, or else it may just be a movie to us but..... Probably gonna scare the little ones 8 out of 10.

20 feet from stardom


Claudia Lennear: I've been singing for all my life.
Interviewer: You posed for Playboy.
Claudia looks like WHAT? And a screen shot on an overhead projector shows us a news article.
Claudia: Well I guess i did didn't i?

We all know the greats in music for instance Sting, Mick Jagger, Lou Reed, Joe Cocker and David Bowie. But behind every music star every legend every inductee, there are unknown singers that sometimes we never know are singing along. This movie is about just that, the unknowable's who sing with the stars, but get no pay for their job. Who strive to become solo acts sometimes they get their wish other times they fall flat. This movie is a dynamic 10 out of 10, I recommend this movie very highly for people who wish to research on the lives of back up singers. The pain, the struggle, the humiliation, it's all there.  

the conjuring






 Suicide Maid: Look what she made me do.
Oh yes, this really did happen.......Ask Lorraine Warren you will get an earful of what exactly  happened  on that fateful day in 1971. Or if you wish she wrote a chronicle of her experience called In the house of darkness and light. I would strongly not recommend this movie for kids, please if you wish to keep your kids safe DO NOT! and I repeat do not take them with you.  7 out of 10.

the lone ranger, despicable me 2


 There were rumors that sustained us.  Stories of a man born in the desert.  A ghost, some said.  Some said, flesh and blood.  A masked man…  a lone Ranger…

He's back! But sadly this isn't a continuation story. A boy see's an aged Tonto and he tells his story from how he remembered him. Disappointingly Johnny Depp plays Tonto, instead of a native American. And he doesn't do the role justice. Armie Hammer plays the ranger/reed. If you like to laugh at western's go see this, but if you in fact did grow up with the ranger.....I wouldn't

Silas:   We are the Anti-Villain League, dedicated to fighting crime on a global scale.  A new villain has surfaced.  You know how a villain thinks, that’s why we brought you here.  I am the league’s director, Silas Ramsbottom.
Floyd:   [turns to other henchmen, cracking up]      …bottom        [they both laugh]
Silas:   Hilarious   [un-amused]







 One word of advice and I say this very strongly, if you never have seen the first one......Please go rent or buy it, because if you see this one you just might end up asking yourself 20 questions.
Gru is back,now a father and instead of weapons he makes jams & jelly's. But when he gets called back to serve his country, he gets pulled back in the game with a sidekick this time. 9 out of 10

Superman







     Jonathan Kent:   You’re the answer, son.  You’re the answer to “are we alone in the universe”.
Clark Kent at 13:   Can’t I just…  keep pretending I’m your son?
Jonathan Kent:   You ARE my son.  And I have to believe that you were sent here for a reason.  And even if it takes the rest of your life, you owe it to yourself to find out what that reason is.

He's back in a new reboot this time it's Henry Cavill taking up the reins as the man from Krypton.
With a a star studded cast to boot, Henry is not any other superman trust me when i say this folks you won't come out yawning. this is enjoyment from beginning to end and with a little familiar tings in the movie. I give this one an A+ adrenaline all around.

Star Trek: Into the Darkness







Space: The final frontier
These are the voyages of the Starship, Enterprise
Its 5 year mission
To explore strange new worlds
To seek out new life and new civilizations
To boldly go where no man has gone before


From 1966 to now the movies and the TV shows have thrilled audiences and fans alike and also given NASA a new reason to ponder "are we alone in this universe or is there something we haven't found yet".?
I have to strongly give this a 10 out of 10. any trekkie anywhere will know the similarities with just a pinch of change but as they always say change is good.

recap of Superbowl XLVII
















V







                              
                           RECAP
This is for all of you who didn't get to see the 2013 Superbowl 47, but still happen to be die hard football fans.

The National anthem: The National anthem was sung by 3 peole respectivly, the first to come out were the chilrens choir of Sandy Hook elementary school then in a suprise Jennifer Hudson came out to sing and last but not least Alicia Keys came out singing on her piano.



During the very first Quarter of the Superbowl the score was Baltimore-7,
San Francisco-0 At first the 49er's werent doing so hot. but thats to be expected since it was only the first quarter it's just begining. But then things started to get a little edgy. Then the 49er's answerd back with a score of  Baltimore-7,
San Francisco-3. But sadly getting 1 touchdown wasn't going to be enough. That would be the end of the 1st quarter, During the 2nd quater the Ravens answered the call to the 49er's touchdown by making the score Baltimore-14,
San Francisco-3. It was at this time the San Francisco fans were getting nervous. and they had every right to be because it was not going good for them as they would have hoped with a big upset of  Baltimore-21, San Francisco-3 the Ravens kept chuging along like a freight train with the 49er's as they're tracks. The 49er's called a time out to see if they could regroup and think of another gameplan. They we're seriously outnumbered but the plan didn't work because at the end of the second quarter it was  Baltimore-21,
San Francisco-6 prooving once again that yea a few points here and there might be good......but it's not going to win you the game.

At the Halftime show Beyonce came out to sing, That's onething i'd like comments about is if you the people thought Beyonce was a real good pick for a Halftime guest or not. I didn't think so.

Moving along in a stunning shocker to start the 3rd quarter Baltimore ran with the ball not holding back making the score Baltimore-28,
San Francisco-6 with baltimore in a suprising lead against the stunned 49er's. The
 49'er's were forced to call a timeout to rethink their strategy it worked a little bit but once again only for one touchdown giving the 49er's one point making it a score of Baltimore-28,
San Francisco-13 not the idea i would have in mind but heh a game is a game right? Once again the Niners sca aTD to get Baltimore-28,
San Francisco-20. At the end of the 3rd quarter the score is Baltimore-28,
San Francisco-23 ready to go into the 4th and final quarter and looking ver grim for San Francisco.
The first part of the final quarter sarts with Baltimore-31,
San Francisco-23 the second half of the 4th quarter one of the ravens leading quarterbacks allowed the ravens to score making it Baltimore-34,
San Francisco-29 making it widly known that the 49er's have lost the edge.Making the final score a resounding Baltimore-34,
San Francisco-31 victory over the 49er's. The Baltimore Ravens are Super Bowl XLVII champions.

The Neighbors

I want to ask you a question. What would you do if your next-door neighbors were aliens?  No, I don't mean from overseas.  I mean from another planet! This typically funny ABC sitcom focuses on just that. A whole bunch of aliens comes to live amongst us, keeping cover and saying they are from France.  They explore our everyday lives like school, getting detentions, celebrating birthdays, jobs, etc. If you like comedies like 3rd Rock from the Sun, etc. you'll get a kick out of this one.

The Hobbit

"Far over the misty mountains cold
To dungeons deep and caverns old
We must away ere break of day
To find our long forgotten gold.
The pines were roaring on the height,
The winds were moaning in the night,
The fire was red, it flaming spread;
The trees like torches blazed with light.
"

-“Far Over the Misty Mountains Cold”

            Well folks, there’s good news and bad news. ‘The Insider’ newsletter has ended after almost 7 years. The good news is that doesn't mean I’m stopping my movie reviews any time soon. You can check out my movie blog at Mainstream Living, Inc. on their website.  Now back to the movie review of ‘The Hobbit’.  
            We all know how Frodo Baggins was handed the one ring to rule them all and his task was to throw it in Mount Doom to kill the evil forever. But how did the ring come into his Uncle Bilbo's possession? The Hobbit tells the tale of how, not 7, but 13 dwarfs went on a magnificent quest to find a forgotten fortune.  This whole trilogy will begin with book 1, all the way to book 3 of The Hobbit Trilogy by author J.R.R. Tolkien.
            I think it could have done just a little better.  I’m giving this movie a 9 out of 10. But now since this is only a blog, I'll let you critique your way.
