B-Movie Central Cheese Blog

Three reviews in less than a week!  This time around it’s Invasion of the Star Creatures, and next up it’s Invasion of the Bee Girls.

I’m gonna go get some sleep now.  Hope you all enjoy the new review.

Just click here to take you there.

For those who haven’t noticed yet, I just did two new reviews in two days.  The first was a review of War of the Colossal Beast and the one I posted this morning was for Invisible Invaders.  So if you haven’t seen them yet, check them out.  The Invisible Invaders review marks the first time I’ve done a running joke through five screenshots.

You can see them by going to the home site of this blog, B-Movie Central.

Also, I’m going to be moving all my domains and getting a hosting account.  I’ll be moving the entire B-Movie Central site over to it, including the video clips so I can lighten the load on my server and have a decent, and cheaper place to host the clips.  I’ve been having nothing but problems with Streamload since they changed their hosting software system over to this Mediamax garbage.  Then again, I may not actually move the site completely.  I might just register an extra domain and host the clips there.  I’ll decide when the time comes.  In any case, the clips will be moved to the new host so I can get away from Streamload once and for all.

I hope you all enjoy the new reviews.

So I was driving my wife to the hospital this morning, and we got stuck at a stoplight; a stoplight we should have been able to make it through.  Why?  Because some fat crossing guard was walking some kids across the cross street, which kept the people in front of me from turning.  So I’m thinking to myself, “Don’t let those little bastards just meander across while you follow them with your stupid stop sign.  You’re holding up traffic.  Scoot them the hell along and get ‘em out of the crosswalk so traffic can move along.  They’re kids, it wouldn’t hurt them to walk a little faster than a 93 year old man with a walker.

But this isn’t the worst part.  The school is on the corner of Fairview and Cole and the crosswalk in question was the crosswalk across cole that led directly to the school’s parking lot, which is basically about two lanes wide from the front area of the school.  So I look over and what do I see?  They have a student crossing guard dressed up in a stupid vest with a stop sign walking students from the corner, through a small crosswalk in the parking area over to the front area of the school.  IN A PARKING AREA FOR CHRIST’S SAKE!!!  When I say parking area, I don’t mean a parking lot.  I mean a small parking area along the side of the school.  A parking area with very little traffic.  That’s what got me to thinking about why kids today suck so bad and grow up into stupid adults that suck as well.

The nanny state has developed to such a point that they’re trying to take all danger and risk out of being a kid, yet danger and risks are what teach us lessons about life and help us to grow into smarter adults, ready to face what life has to offer.

For example, I’m sure many of you remember how some of the more idiotic nanny schools have banned tag and dodgeball for various reasons that range from protecting the students physically to protecting their self esteem.

First of all, games like tag and dodgeball teach you how to be tough.  When I was a kid and we played tag, we’d knock each other ass over tea kettle.  It was the same with dodgeball.  We were sadistic, but it taught us how to be tough, and as an adult, I appreciate the lessons it taught me and the toughness it instilled in me.  Keeping kids from experiencing that is to rob them of some of the most important lessons they’ll ever learn in life.  And as for their self esteem, how much self esteem will they have when they find themselves as adults being complete whimps, unable to deal with the knocks that life throws at you because they were so protected as a child?  Sure kids get hurt in roughousing games, but they’re young, resillient and they heal quickly…a little smarter for the experience.

It’s not just the schoolyard games either.   They’re walking these kids across a quiet parking area.  when I was a kid I rode my bike with my friends to hell and back.  We didn’t wear any stupid helmets either.  We were free and we rode anywhere and everywhere.  Sure we did stupid things and wiped out once in a while, but that’s how you get tough and how you learn the most important lessons life has to offer.  Robbing children of that is to rob them of their humanity and makes them nothing more than worthless liabilites to the world as adults.

So stop overprotecting children.  They don’t need it, and they’ll be all the better for all of the bumps, scrapes and bruises.  In fact, as adults when they look around at all the stupid people around them who were overprotected as children, they’ll thank you for not allowing them to become the mindless, sheep-like wussies that so many other people have become.

As for the Dixie Chicks…

Wow, they swept an awards show where the awards are given out by people who are as dumb as they are, and then they have the idiocy to claim that that was the people’s way of expressing their freedom of speech.

That’s like being voted the biggest geek in the science lab by all the other science lab geeks.  They’re preaching to the chior.  They totally destroyed their fan base in their genre of music with all their BS, and now their fan base all comes from a bunch of other idiots that think just like them.  Oh yeah, opening your mouths was totally worth it wasn’t it?

Entertainers need to learn that they make money by appealing to a large number of people.  When you open your mouth and say stuff that’s going to piss of a huge chunk of your audience…like they did, and then you don’t make money from those people anymore.

So have fun with your awards girls, and you can sit around feeling all smug about it, but I know a WHOLE lot of people who couldn’t care less about the Grammy’s or the fact that you won any, and who definitely won’t be buying or listening to your crap anymore.  Those people are expressing their rights as well, though you’ve never seemed to really grasp the concept that people who disagree with you have the same rights as you do.

So that’s it for today.  I got my bitching out of my system and now I’m going to go wait for our ravioli lasagne to come out of the oven so I can sit down and enjoy it with my beautiful wife in front of a movie I got in the mail today called Azumi that should totally rock.

I just realized I’m starving too because I haven’t eaten anything all day.  Funny how you get to thinking about other stuff and forget to eat.  If I don’t eat I can’t poo, and if I don’t poo, how can I give accurate poo updates here in my blog?  I guess for today I’ll have to leave a no comment.

I know I’ve made posts in the past goofin’ on Anna Nicole or talking about how all of her “friends” were nothing but enablers who encouraged her drug and alcohol abuse as well as her other bad habits, but I never in a million years thought she’d be dead at 39, nor is it anything I desired to see. She had recently lost a ton of weight and seemed like she was getting her life back on track…as least as much as she could, but then her son dies and now she’s dead. It’s really sad and I’m still in shock. Hopefully she’s finally found the peace she never had in life.

Kinda odd that that Stern guy was present at both her and her son’s deaths, especially since there’s so much speculation about his involvement in her son’s death. I’m not saying he had any involvement in either of them, but I know there are lots of conspiracy theorists out there who are gonna be all over that. Especially since with her son out of the way, and now her…the baby they had together will be the rightful heir, which means he (Stern) will get everything she had. Again I’m not saying that’s what happened at all, but I know the conspiracy theories about it are going to run rampant. It’s all just so obvious that people are going to be all over it.

As for me, I would personally tend to chalk Anna Nicole’s death up to her incredibly heavy substance abuse and years of abusing her body. The article I read didn’t give a cause of death, so I guess we’ll have to wait a few days for the autopsy results before we know for sure. If there’s anything suspicious about it though, I may just have to revert back to my conspiracy theory.

Anyway, goodbye Anna. Be happy wherever you are.

Just some more stuff I thought was stupid…

“Living with genital herpes can be a hassle…”

No, really?  Is it?  Damn, and here I thought it was like a party in your crotch.  What the hell was I thinking?

Then there’s the Boniva commercial with Sally Fields where she complains that she’s too busy to have to take 1 pill a week, so she likes Boniva because it’s just once a month.  Um…how the hell long does it take you to take a pill?  Is this a multi-hour project involving some kind of a pill injection machine and water hoses or something, or are you just too damn lazy to take two seconds once a friggin’ week to take a pill?  Now don’t get me wrong.  Once a month is obviously better than 4 times a month just because you don’t have to buy as many pills and you only have to take it once, but jeez…don’t make it sound like it’s some major hassle in your life to have to take 4 instead of 1.

Then there’s Hillary Clinton trying to claim now that she never would have gone to war in Iraq.  Um…seems to me she was beating the war drums right along with the Bush administration back before the war even started.  I know she was because I remember her statements and I even heard a speech she gave back then on the radio the other day where she was talking about how evil Saddam was and how he was obsessed with weapons of mass destruction, etc… and how taking him out was something we needed to do.  Now she’s trying to claim she never would have gone to war?  You hypocritical bitch!  She’s exactly like her scumbag husband.  She’ll say anything she needs to say to appeal to whoever she needs to appeal to in order to further her political ambitions.  She has no integrity whatsoever and people need to realize that.  I’m sick of people giving her a pass on all her BS.  They need to open their eyes and hold her accountable for the things she says, and keep track of how many times she tells one group of people one thing and then another group something completely different just because that’s what they want to hear.

And what about poor Katherine McPhee?  For those that don’t know, she was the runner up on last year’s American Idol.  I voted for her a lot, and I also voted for Taylor because I liked them both.  She’s a very beautiful and talented girl, but I just got her new album, and I gotta tell you…it sucks.  There’s a couple of nice ballad type songs on it that are totally her style, but the rest is nothing but a bunch of computerized R&B crap that is totally not her style and just generally sucked big time.  She’s special.  She’s actually talented, and has far too much talent to be wasting it on that crap.  Unfortunately, she had very little control over anything that went on that album.  She’s under contract and she basically has to sing what they tell her to sing.  Well good job guys.  Way to kill her career before it even starts.  I only hope she can get control of her career soon and actually release some albums that are more to her style, otherwise she might as well just give up.  If she keeps putting out crap like that, then she really has no future.

Let’s see, what else is stupid?

Oh, there’s gay groups complaining about the Snickers commercial that aired during the Super Bowl.  I guess they’re saying it’s homophobic or whatever.  Well you know what?  Get over it.  If you made a commercial where a gay guy and a lesbian kissed and were disgusted by it, no one would bitch about it.  In fact, it’d be funny.  Well this commercial was just a hetero version of that.  Honestly I didn’t find it all that interesting or funny, but people need to stop looking for crap to be offended by.  It’s a commercial, it’s not saying that gays should be wiped off the planet or anything, so get over it.  It’s a humorous commercial and nothing more.  You people who are bitching about it remind me of that stupid caveman on the Geico commercial.

Hmm, what else can I bitch about?  Oh well, I guess that’s enough for now.  I’m tired and need some sleep really bad.  I guess that’s why I’m so bitchy.  Think I’ll go see what my pillows are doing.

Some stupid things I’ve been meaning to post about recently…

First up are those religious idiots in Florida. Their church, that was actually built as a hurricane shelter and was supposed to be able to withstand a cat 5 hurricane was torn to shreds and basically leveled by the storms that just hit central Florida. Then on TV, I see the idiot paritioners out having some stupid service today where the church used to be. So let me see if I got this right. These idiots believe “god” is in control of everything, so “god” must have caused the storm that destroyed their church, ruined countless lives, and actually took at least 19 lives…and they’re out praising him for that? You ask these idiots how their “god” could allow such devastation to his “children” and they either have no answer for you or some answer that’s so ridiculous as to be completely laughable. So all you people who were out there worshipping today, get a clue. If “god” really is in control of everything, then obviously he can’t stand you people and he definitely hates trailer parks and pretty much the whole south in general from the looks of it. You people need to find something else to do with your time that will actually be productive. How about helping all the other people who’s lives were devastated by the storms? Wouldn’t that be more productive than standing around some destroyed church singing songs about a “god” that obviously can’t stand you?

On a completely different topic, something else that’s been really annoying me are those freecreditreport.com commercials. Their website address says you can get a free credit report, and their commercials say you can get a free credit report as well, only at the end of the commercial, it says, “Free credit report applies with enrollment in Triple Advantage.” So is it free or is it not free? They sure try to make it sound free, but when you go there, the only way to get an actual credit report out of them is to sign up for this stupid service called Triple Advantage that’s not free. I would LOVE to see the federal trade commission come down on those jerks for false advertising. You see this kind of crap going on all the time and someone needs to be on top of companies that perpetrate these deceptive advertising practices.

Let’s see, what else…

Oh, the Super Bowl was today. Big deal. I honestly couldn’t be less interested. I usually like the commercials, but I never watch them during the game. I always watch them on you tube or something after the fact. I’m not even all that interested in the commercials this year. Dunno why, I’m just not all that interested in anything lately.

Oh, and there was something else I saw on the Fox news channel last night. They were talking about some new fad with teenagers called fence plowing. A bunch of teenagers run at a wooden fence and try to plow through it. I got news for you. If any idiot teenagers plowed through my fence, #1 our dogs would eat them, and #2 what was left would be staring down the barrel of a gun. Are these punk ass kids REALLY that bored? If you idiots are that bored then you need to go get a job or find something productive to do instead of showing the world what a bunch of idiots you can be. Almost makes me think we should have two years of required military service for kids right out of high school like they do in Israel where my wife is from. You don’t see this kind of crap with young people over there. At least, no where near to the extent you see it here. Then you got idiots in California trying to make spanking your kids illegal. First of all, the government has no business telling parents how to discipline their kids as long as they’re not brutal or harshly abusive about it, and secondly, most of the idiot teenagers running around today could use a good dose of ass whoopin’ once in a while. It might just make them a little more aware of how people are supposed to behave in a civilized world. When I was a kid and I got out of line, I got my butt spanked or my hand slapped or whatever. I threw a temper tantrum when I was two and my mom beat my ass with a fly swatter and damned if I ever did it again. She wasn’t abusing me, nor did she leave me with any tormented scars of abuse. She just gave me a good whoopin’, which I totally deserved and it was a good lesson for me. People nowadays just want to be friends with their kids instead of being what the kids really need…parents. That’s why there are so many spoiled, out of control, idiot kids running around nowadays.

Anyway, I had kind of a crappy weekend and I needed to vent a little. I don’t feel much better, but at least I got a good bitchin’ out of my system.
