Peanuts Movie Trailer Short Review

Well its her. Or at least the trailer. Peanuts. I’m so happy to be writing this story. I felt like a kid again once the music began to play. I was transported back in time to all of the Christmas specials and Thanksgiving movies where Charlie Brown and the gang had so many great adventures. This trailer made me forget that it was in 3D because of how brilliantly the animation mimics the core design of the Peanuts cartoon/comic strip. 

Seeing Snoopy and Woodstock with the dog house was so heart warming. It appears that 20^th Century Fox will not tamper with the spirit of this cartoon by Schulz. Produced by Blue Sky Productions, the same company that brought us the Rio movies and Ice Age seem to be striking gold once again with this adaptation. So far I’m pleasantly pleased with the teasers and trailers. I think that everything thing I’m seeing and hearing about production is awesome using the great Bill Melendez to voice Snoop was pleasantly surprising. I’m giving this trailer my highest regards and cant wait to see the movie with my family.

Ben Affleck is a gun owner

That's right. I'm Batman and I'll shoot!

You heard me correctly. Our new Batman is a proud gun owner. Though I don't own or want to own a gun right now. I don't blame Ben Affleck nor the man he was speaking too (Bill Maher) for owning guns when you're a celebrity with certain reputations and/or at a certain level of fame. Ben Affleck is a man who knows that there are people in this world that would like to cause him harm or put him in a situation where he'd feel threatened and protective of his family. Exercising your second Amendment rights and clearly expressing that right on television to give any would be "Tester" a second thought before coming to the Affleck home and thinking that you wouldn't get a few rounds thrown your way.

After what happened to Keanu Reeves I'm surprised his home intruder survived. It can be a scary world and we live in a country that does a lot of celebrity worshiping. Whenever our idols don't measure up to our expectations we lash out violently. I don't believe that all celebs need nor should all be carrying unless they feel its necessary based on the amount of "fan" that may pose a threat and especially if they've been  accosted before.

I wouldn't want to but if it came down to it even a gun hater like my self would arm up and do what I'd have to do in order to ensure the survival of my family and self. People can get crazy and I don't know karate.

I hope that not too many rabbit Batman fans give Ben a hard time about this. Yes the real Batman wouldn't resort to using a gun but lets not forget. Batman isn't real. Ben Affleck is. Actors aren't jumping off building in real life wearing bat suits. But if you're still got your panties in a bunch, there's been plenty of times when the caped crusader had to pick up a piece.

The Call 2: Starring CM Punk - WWE Studios

Would CM Punk Return to WWE Studios Before The WWE Universe?

Anyone who knows me knows that I'm a huge WWE fan. I've been apart of the WWE Universe since birth. My mother, believe it or not, is the main reason why. I've watched almost every Monday Night Raw, Pay Per View and Smackdown. When WWE Studios launched I was pleasantly surprised on how it started out. See No Evil to me was a pretty good slasher film. Every other movie that came afterwards was not so great. Mostly the ones starting John Cena. It seems that since they've geared their attention to other WWE Superstars to see if they can capture that Hulk Hogan "No Holds Bar" magic. Pun intended, I use to love that movie, but lets be serious it was horrible. But something interesting has been happening as of late. 

WWE Studios has been trying to become a more respected film studio by putting out some quality stories. The problem so far has been direction but every now and then they'll produce something quite special. My first and to this day my main example was The Call. Getting Halle Berry was a great accomplishment for the studio. I'm not too surprised because Ms. Berry's career has been on a tad of a roller coaster and obviously WWE got her on a dip. 

The interesting thing about The Call is that when I saw it, it didn't stay in the theme of a "typical WWE film". If you were to tell me that The Call was produced by Warner Brothers, New Line, Columbia, etc. I would have believed you. The Call was just a all around, except for the very last scene, a great and suspenseful movie. It was a great ride, it had me on the edge of my seat, Halle Berry reminded me that she is an Oscar caliber actress. I was pleasantly pleased with every ones performances and found myself wanting more. 

Here comes the part where you say, "But wait, [SPOILER ALERT] they killed the villain at the end". Now we're moving into my great idea and I challenge you all to say it not be the right move for the studio that is WWE.

I believe that if there were a sequel to The Call, you wouldn't even need Halle Berry. But if you want to have the same magic you got in the first one lets say for the sake of argument that she came back. First off, you couldn't have her in that chair in the majority of the movie this time. I see it as Halle Berry's character is about to end a shift, she gets a call to dispatch about an emergency. Maybe the girl who was kidnapped in the first one played by Abigail Breslin is killed in the beginning of the movie and it shakes up Halle Berry to the core and she cant continue with her day and needs some time off. 

She takes said vacation and starts getting strange calls from a weird guy who knows all about her and is threatening to kill everyone she loves and then her. You could set up a plot that Morris Chestnuts character gets taken and that its all up the Berry to save him. But my campaign for the role of the villain is CM Punk. Either as a relative of the first villain played by Michael Eklund or a partner in crime out for revenge. CM Punk has a lot of "The Rock" quality charisma on the screen. He could be a huge star in his own right. Give him some quality acting schooling and I bet Punk would be a great fit for action and even some solid comedy films.

Now of course, I'm speaking as a fan, I love CM Punk, I believe he is the best in the world. So I am bias for everything Punk. I don't know if he's ever considered going into acting but if he were to take a role like this I'd be all for it. I've even written a book called Raven: The Hidden where I envisioned one of the main aantagonistas CM Punk. I don't know why I need him to be a villian, he seems like a great and likable guy. I met him briefly in Balad Iraq when the WWE visited the troops over seas. Dont' believe me, see the pick I took of the man who would soon become the best in the world. I worked there for over five years and meeting those guys is always a cool thing. 

So Mr. Punk, if you're reading this and I know that you're not. I don't know if you and Vince are on speaking terms. But one of your conditions of your return to the ring should be to star in The Call 2. Not just to be a villain who gets it in the end. but one of convinced that he's doing the right thing by killing people, bringing dept and conviction to the character. I want to see a CM Punk full of pain, just like when he dropped his first pipe bomb on the WWE. 

That's my thoughts, what are yours?

Star Wars Episode VII: The Secrets of Leaks, Spoilers & Juicy Rumors

Sweaty nerds of the galaxy are you ready for more secrets regarding the latest edition of your Holy Trilogy that will make you Wookie in your pants?

We don't need to tell you again that speculation has been swirling around the internets pumping your blood clean of any of those stupid midichlorian. Stories like Lupita Nyong'o being born to play Asajj Ventress. Well as the story goes her fresh cut has been getting lower and lower to a bald fade. As we all know, this Academy Award Winner has been signed on and probably duel sabor trailing with Hamill (Luke Skywalker) Thursday's to Tuesday. Nyong'o brings a beauty to this Galaxy far far away that only would be enhanced with heavy make up and a chance to go rogue by playing one of the most ruthless Sith's since Maul. You'll defiantly want to keep refreshing imdb to see when the rumors turn to pure unadulterated fact or maybe another character who could just as well be a Jedi who may have a slight resemblance to Ventress only because the woman who's playing her just so happens to be a similar body type, coincidentally speaking. Or she could be Ventress, who knows. Keep clicking refresh.

Harrison Ford demands that Hon Solo dies. Everyone feels that this is inevitable either from a Milenium Falcon crash landing, the son of Greedo seeks revenge or the beef between Chewie and Han gets real. There have been many storie
s that suggest that the lovable but deadly Chewbaca once got drunk at that bar that plays the same music over and over again. On the 1,988th replay of the hit single Chewie built up the courage to tell Leia how he really feels, grabbing her inappropriately and causing the Princess to channel suppressed Force powers pushing the Wookie across the bar. J.J. Abram's is still considering the Greedo angle.

Moving on to the big new of the new direction that is J.J. Abrams, its been posted some where on the internet, that J.J. has become obsess with Mark Hamill. Once the YouTube video of him resisting Star Wars dialogue as told by The Joker, Abrams rewrote the script so that Hamill will now have to give the performance of a Jedi Master Luke Skywalker, who is more powerful and just as wise as Obi Wan Kenobi but who speaks like the Clown Prince of Crime. Some people say that would be a good thing. No really people have said that.

Listen, I'm sure by now you've figured out where this little story is going. None of what I've written, especially in the last few paragraphs are anywhere near the truth. We at T.T.T.M. are not in the rumor business. I'll not join the ranks of crazies who just want to put out any nonsense rumor just to get a click. I'm a John Campea Guy. Yes, I'll fan fiction write, and I'll ask the "What If's" and sometimes I'll be right 98% of the time but only the 1% of it will go into print and even then you'll always know that I'm just, say it with me SPECULATING. I won't ever pass off rumors. If I want to have a little fun playing the what if game I will but lets try to relax as fans.

We're too involved in these worlds to the point where we're killing the romance in the theater by diluting the magic by dissecting every piece of leaked footage that comes our way. "What's that? A door that says Gotham Bank? What does this mean about the upcoming movies?" Well it means that at some point of the Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice movie, there will be a scene with a bank in it. Either in the background or maybe Wayne or Luther will go check their safety deposit box to go roll around in Kryptonite found months after the events in Man of Steel. Or maybe their debit card will get stolen and Bruce or Lex might have to ask for a replacement. I don't know but I bet they won't have to wait long for the new card to come in the mail. You see what I did there? I just made some stuff up that could be in the movie or might not be but we'll find out soon enough. Who care about the rumors. The stuff that get released officially are way better and the cameras are shaky. Let all find the patients to let the people make their movie and hope it won't suck and that Gadot knocks it out the park. If it does suck and its all her fault I'll release the hounds.

Back to Star Wars, lets let the nice Jedi and Sith get back to business and make sure we wipe away the bad smell of Jar Jar and get this party started right. Okay guys? We're here at the bar! Play that same song.

Deadpool Movie Confirmed: Ryan Renolds? Kinda Sorta

Today will be a day that will have all comic book geeks going ape (bleep). Deadpool Lives! After the leaked footage of Deadpool was sent to the Youtubes Fox has officially set a date for a Deadpool movie coming to theaters in 2016.

I'm thinking that because of all the great support from fans that Fox may even go even further into cool mode by making the merc have a Rated R mouth. I mean its the only way it can go and work well. Even if you don't go hard R the sound of bleeps are so funny that it would work with Deadpool breaking the fourth wall, looking at the audience and complaining about censorship to the fans while the movie is playing.

There's so many questions. Will Hugh Jackman make another cameo? Will Deadpool call out the mistakes made to him on the Wolverine Origins movie? Will there be blood or bleeps? Its too much for me to handle right now. I think the character is awesome. I think Fox should stop playing around pretending that they're not going to back a dump truck of Benjamin to Reynolds to play the role, if for nothing, for just being 100% right about everything about this character.

Its time that we take comic book movie making to the next level and I see 20th Century Fox trying to pioneer the revolution. The only other concerns are how it officially effects upcoming Fox comic book adaptations that have yet to be born. What will this mean for an X-Force movie? Though we don't know the answers yet, I have a great feeling that this could be to Fox what Guardians of the Galaxy was for Marvel. With tons more ninja fights and limbs being lopped off of course.

Go Merc and everyone tweet Ryan a thank you message. I know I will.

Trailer Review: This Is Where I Leave You on Adam Driver

After seeing this trailer I believe this is the kind of role that will warm me up to Adam Driver a little more. I wasn't a big fan of his when I first saw him on Girls. It was hard to like him. After a few more episodes that peeled the onion of his character I came to see it was a compliment of his talent as an actor. Getting to know more of what he's about I'm convinced he's the best actor on the show. The direction he's going he'll be able to steel scenes from the best of them.

I'll see this movie because I love the casting. Tina Fey is always awesome and hasn't let me down yet. Feels like This Is Where I Leave You is going to have a ton of great moments in the dialogue and the cemestry is aparent even on the trailer. I'm curious to see what the back and forth with Jason Batemen will be like.

Over all this trailer has caught my eye and I'll be seeing it soon after release. I won't promise in the theaters but if not, I will defiantly be Netflixing the heck out of this movie.

Can't wait to see what Adam can bring to the Star Wars franchise. Keep up the good work.

Through The Trailer: John Wick Movie Trailer Review

I've yet to see 47 Ronin, yet, so I wasn't too thrilled about a new Keanu movie because it seems that his ability to carry a film was falling apart. But man o man when I say "This trailer is freaking awesome!" You better believe that like you're a WWE Fan that believed in The Shield. The moment when John Wick, played by Keanu leaves his garage in a bad ass muscle car driving like a mad man just to give a cute puppy beagle a thrill, it had my attention.

Moving on to him being hounded by the creepy dude who calls himself reek in Game of Thrones to then being attacked in his own home by the same guy who goes and kills the mans dog. I knew that this trailer was special when the dog died. Usually in these action movies where the mysterious loaner, who just wants to be left alone is accosted, its usually for his wife/girlfriend or he's a single dad and his daughter is taken. No, John Wick dares to take revenge to a whole new level and say "The wife was already dead and the last gift she gave me, the dog, was now killed? I began talking to my lap top telling the bad guys "Oh no, you gotta die now."

You have Ian McShane telling Keanus character not to even dip a pinky back into the town he has to take his vengeance he'll get pulled back into something bad. You got John Leguizamo who gets the car that was jacked by creepy dude, who instantly recognizes it and he doesn't like what they've done. Then the father of creepy, Alfie Allen, tells him. "Its not what you've done". Obviously because they come from a crime family and stealing is like bringing home an A+ from school. "Its who you did it too". This line is the dead give away that Keanu is not to be messed with. This guy who was just car jacked is not just a nobody, but a nobody who would tear up his own house by sledge hammering his cement floor to free his stock pile of guns berried beneath.

If you're a bad guy who pissed off another dude and the second guy was so much worse that he has to keep his guns hidden, not in a lock box with a combo, but in freaking cement, DUDE, what ever you did apologize now because it ain't ending well for you sir.

The whole "Yeah I'm thinking I'm back" line was so perfect. Its like, if you loved me kicking ass in the matrix you'll love this. Keanu looks like "The One and Only" again and John Wick looks like its going to be a pretty good film.

Can't wait to see it so we can start talking about it. Outstanding Trailer!
