I read on the Internet that a Hollywood producer once offered movie tickets in exchange for sex to an entire audience waiting in line to see one of his rotten movies!! WTF is going on in Hollyweird!!?? How much sex do you need to finish a goddamn movie, Hollywood!? A lover per night the film is in production?? Two lovers at the wrap party?? An orgy before the Academy Awards??? Outrageous and EVIL. Sick and twisted!! And what's WORSE and unforgivable is that everybody is getting laid EXCEPT me, George Alan Booker! Hollywood needs to stop f*cking around and get back to what they do best, making bad movies.

Newspapers offline and on the web are reporting the low box office results of the recently released sequel to the classic scifi-noir drama, 'Bladerunner: 2049'. THIS MEANS NOTHING. The original 'Bladerunner' didn't make a great impact either upon landing. But like most great ideas it flew over the heads of the masses and slowly built up a cult following consisting primarily of the intellectually driven media consumers. Now, many years later, the world generally acknowledges that the first 'Bladerunner' was great. A classic slipped to us right under the fanboy noses. But the pros saw it for what it was: sheer genius.

Now 'Bladerunner: 2049', the sequel to 'Bladerunner' is here and enduring the same low box office result of the original. I went and saw this film and I've got to tell you, Ridley Scott, the director of the first 'Bladerunner' and now the producer of this new one, HAS DONE IT AGAIN. 'Bladerunner: 2049' is a textbook example of how a science fiction movie SHOULD BE MADE. It has created a world so believable that you never question it's reality on the screen. For you and the characters it is all occuring. All so damn well constructed artificial believability!!!!

I tell you I had a hell of time watching this film; a film that was not trying to impress you. It was only trying to tell you that we, our species, is headed for serious trouble when we start making androids so close to our own images that we cannot tell them apart (without special equipment). It's a movie about the near necessity of a slave work force in order to make sure that a large and presumably great endeavor takes place. This is a frightening thought, I know. For nothing justifies slavery. BUT what if you could justify it? That is the world of 'Bladerunner'. And what do you do with those slaves once their work is done?? That's 'Bladerunner''s problem and coincidentally the problem of African-Americans and the descendants of the slave owners, White Americans. That's how subliminal Bladerunner is operating on. That's how deep it's going. Doesn't matter if it made money, once you see it. Once you hear it, you will never forget it.

The movie is directed like clockwork by Denis Villeneuve. His hand is so deft and so purposeful that you forget that everything on the screen is being guided by him and those working with him. The seriousness of the film is what strikes you the best. It's no joke, living in a world RUN BY CORPORATIONS (sound familiar?). It doesn't seek to explain to you repeatedly what's occurring in this world. It hopes that you are not an idiot so much so that when the characters discuss the now radioactive wasteland of Las Vegas -made so by a 'dirty bomb', it never mentions the possibility or likelihood that Vegas fell victim to a terrorists attack. For a 'dirty bomb' is a weapon that terrorists can more likely get their hands on than a straight-up nuclear weapon.

But the casting of 'Bladerunner: 2049' is what's so dead-on about it.  Done by Zsolt Csutak     
Francine Maisler, Lucinda Syson , all of the characters are unassuming in their roles, as if they were born to play them. No favoritism here. No casting couches got these guys their roles. They fit the part. They got it. End of story. Ryan Gosling does his best at NOT BEING RYAN GOSLING. At not being a human. And it works. He manages to walk the line between Human and Almost Human perfectly. His LAPD (Los Angeles Police Department) commander RESEARCH is also very effective at being a woman with an almost personal mission at maintaining the order, or THE LINE that's been drawn (by the masses of humanity and not the corporations) separating a human being from a 'Replicant'. At times during the course of the film she appears to be the lone defender of that line and quiet effective at it. Other characters are also there for a reason. Take Harrison Ford's Rick Deckard. Rick Deckard is a man that has lost the love of his life, Rachel -a replicant, but he has not forgotten her at all. The love he had for her has not faded in many, many years. This is so emphasized in an exquisite scene that has to be seen to be fully appreciated; when corporate head RESEARCH, played hauntingly, 'cybernetically', by the weirdness exuding Jared Leto. What a scene when he meets Harrison Ford! What a scene when Ford's character is tempted by Jared's character to LOVE AGAIN if he will only do what Let's character wants him to do. NEEDS him to do.

The special effects are flawless. Kiss your laptop or PC tower tonight for this. For computers have made the unbelievable so believable that it's ridiculous. Did they film this shit from the future itself?? Every image tries to stay with you in this film. It's all so down-right well done. And I've seen a lot of science fiction films. This is some good stuff. Flying cars never looked so awesome! And what gets me about the 'Bladerunner' universe is it's appropriateness of it's future predicting. If and when we do get flying cars who do you think will covet them the most but the police departments?? None of that skyway traffic crunch shown in other films involving the future. How believable is that? No, cops will probably get those flying cars first --and if they get their way, the last.

Are you ready to see this movie yet? You should be. Now I warn you, if you do see it, put aside your expectations of what a movie should be. This is done in a more 'real time' feel, like a Stanley Kubric film. '2001: A Space Odyssey' style. It takes it's time. It doesn't give a fuck if you don't have the nearly 3 hours to spare to see this film. It's a masterpiece that no one is seeing. Not the slower folks out there. Only the smart people are seeing it for now. Then, years later, the slower ones will see it and they will call it a classic right along with the people who called it a classic from the start. 'Bladerunner: 2049' is lightning striking twice.

Stupid feminazis, ridiculous religious prudes and assorted politically correct yahoos threaten to turn ALL ADULTS into children again by making sure we can't talk about or see sexual organs or anything sex related in public or in entertainment!! SCREW these people and support films, comics books, music etc. that dare to push the limit in the name of art or truth. I for one am not returning to the days (of childhood) of talking about vaginas or penises as 'thingys' or enduring blurred out images of breasts or genital areas as if this was public TV or something. Especially in movies; and if it's rated R then don't take your brat into the flick then complain about seeing naked or semi-naked people talking about the very thing that brought you into this world: the sex act. Bunch of fucking ingrates in the world, I tell you. Ungrateful ass people.

 Haven't been on this thing in a while, taking care of business you know. Took time off to see the new, 'Kingsman' movie and boy that was worth it! I tell you, if you watch a movie late at night and it still entertains you then you know it's good. I nodded off a bit a few times but every time I woke up I loved what was happening!

   The plot is simple: a MILF quality (Mom I'd Like To F*ck) drug lord [played deliciously by red head beauty, Julianne Moore] is determined to become a household name in the illegal drug industry and outside of it. Her only problem is that damn 'War On Drugs' that's been wasting American and Mexican and other countries' dollars for decades. She's devised a rather clever plan to ruin it but the only thing standing in her way is the Kingsman secrete agents. Well that means she's got to get rid of them, doesn't it? And that's where the thrilling action ballets come in!

   Lot's of wild and incredible camera angles and single take looks at daring stunts and awesome bullet, whip, and whatever projectile thrown at you weapons play. It's all a display of Hollywood's technical bravado and just some damn good fun visual storytelling. But all of it is in the service of the plot; in fact, the most important thing about this movie (refreshingly) isn't the special effects and action --it's the story!!

   Suprisingly enough there's a great and rather sophisticated story chugging underneath 'Kingsman: The Golden Circle'. The whole film is a satire on the current political situation in American (Conservatives and Trump), the worldwide condition of drug use (with special emphasis on the Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte and his unusual approach to 'curing' the drug problem: by KILLING drug lords and junkies!!), the importance of the media to all - including the bad guys - and the coming prevalence of drones and robots in warfare / crime. Whoever wrote this --(I'm too lazy to find that out...) is rather clever and most of it will probably go over the heads of all those who are not news savvy. You know, those people who NEVER pick up a newspaper or watch TV news shows. But who cares about them, right? They'll think this gem of an action-satire is too long and / or too unrealistic. But for those in the know this movie will have you laughing out loud and nodding your head in agreement with it's political / social viewpoint.

Well done, whoever made this movie! Can't wait until the next one!

​ANOTHER Hollywood piece of trash filmmaking splashes down in your nearest theater's toilet!! 'TRANSFORMERS: Part Whatever'! This story is so bad that I rewrote it in order to entertain myself as I watched this dumbass movie. So kick back and enjoy my transformed Transformers (it's better than Hollywood's!)

BEST NONE MOVIE QUOTE:
"I want my check, motherfuckers. And I want it by the end of the day." -Bill the Studio Janitor

THE PLOT: 
In a world increasingly turning to green or natural resources for fuel the gasoline guzzling Transformers set out on a mission to prove that climate change is a lie and that gasoline is still the best way to get from zero to 60 MPH in under one minute. But their evil, ex bad guy nemesis, Megatron, has vowed to stop them!

THE DIRECTING: 
Another Michael Bay special effects jerk-off fest!!! Hell yeah!! I brought by cybernetic nerd-boy raincoat to stroke off in the corner of the theater at all of the disguised male testosterone splashed up on the screen!! When I came I screamed out, "Michael Baayy!! I fucking love you!!!" Then the surly usher came in a said, "Shut the fuck up, you creep! You're disturbing the other viewers!"

THE REVIEW: 
This film was great! Go see it right now and don't pay like I did by donning a pair of Dickey's worker clothing and telling the stupid theater employees that you're there to check the HVAC (air conditioning). They'll wave you through. 

THE BOTTOM LINE:
Stay at home and mail your money to the studios with a letter that states, 'PLEASE REMOVE THIS WORTHLESS CRAP FROM MY LOCAL CINEMA. THANK YOU'. This way you can be honest and kinda hip by telling your idiot pals that did see it that you paid to NOT see it.

Doesn't get any more wonderful than Gal Godot as Wonder Woman. With kick-ass action scenes she's terrific to behold.

Thanks to the shitty story by Zack Snyder and company (wouldn't you know!) the underused but perfectly villainous Doctor Poison, played succinctly by Spanish actress Elana Anaya, only gets limited screen time. But what she does with it is terrific.

Don't believe ALL of the hype! Wonder Woman is an OK film. It soars ONLY because of Gal Gadot. After you get past her the rest of the film is a bunch of cliched ideas that are poorly executed themselves.

Let's start off with the good though: It was smart to place the action in Wonder Woman in the past. Super hero films work best when we see them during the actual time they were meant for (meaning the era of their creations). 'Captain America: The First Avenger' did this and now the Wonder Woman writers, knowing full well that DC Comics / Warner Bros. needs a hit, were wise to take it as an example and put the lovely Amazon princess in the past. Fighting with American soldiers in the latter stages of World War 1. There are a few more good ideas too, such as not attempting to obliterate the Greek mythology angle that set the stages for the character's existence. Marvel's Thor did a shoddy job with this. If you remember the first Thor movie the writers had the nerve to claim that the Norse Gods were not really gods at all but 'demi-gods' or basically wannabes. This was a travesty of religious history and revealed their religious bias. But fuck them, Wonder Woman's writer(s) got it right. But after these two story elements the rest of the story turns into typical Hollywood Fake Blockbuster plotting, the more intricate details of which I'll let you go to the movie and see for yourself.

Now, the bad stuff: The bad in this film is really pathetic and has to do with some basic film school principals being ignored by the creators. Mainly this movie is riddled with CONTINUITY PROBLEMS, some of which were OUTRIGHT EXAMPLES OF STUPIDITY. The first one being a scene where WONDER WOMAN saves the WW1 pilot Steve Trevor from drowning. After she pulls the lucky bastard from the ocean they cut in for some medium shots of them on the beach and these two characters DO NOT APPEAR AS THOUGH THEY WERE JUST 10 OR 20 FT DEEP in the ocean only mere minutes ago. They should've been drenched with water and it should've been in their fucking eyes, noses, everywhere but it wasn't. That was some bullshit.

The SECOND big continuity error was how Wonder Woman kept changing clothing during the fast paced action without the audience being shown her taking off her more bulky armor and placing it in a handbag or something to carry around with when needed. Instead whenever she changed into regular clothing to blend in with the human beings then changed into wonder woman you were left wondering WHERE THE HELL WAS SHE KEEPING THIS ARMOR AT AND HOW DID SHE MANAGED TO KEEP IT ALL HIDDEN UNDERNEATH THESE PARTY DRESSES AND OTHER CLOTHING, ESPECIALLY HER WONDER SHOES (sandals or whatever??) This shit got to be fucking stupid after a while. The stupidity reached a crescendo when Wonder Woman attends a PARTY FULL OF DIPLOMATS --which the filmmakers did not show how she got past the necessary security for an event like that --with the HILT OF HER SWORD STICKING OUT OF THE BACK OF HER BACKLESS PARTY DRESS. This was so goddamn ridiculous that you wondered if every German general and party goer in the fucking movie was some how immune to assassination attempts. This was some downright stupid amateur filmmaking 'mistakes',  people. You got to see this dumb ass scene to believe it! It was a dumb, dumb mistake for the filmmakers to get rid of the classic TV show's Wonder Woman's ability to transform into her super hero costume by spinning. If they had then they would have neatly tied the past TV show with the present Wonder Woman in the eyes of fans young and old. A great opportunity lost perhaps forever now.

The THIRD big continuity error (SPOILER WARNING) is when a lead villain who at first appeared to be an older trusted member of the allied forces turns out to be an evil god in disguise. Now when this guy finally reveals who he is his body undergoes a MASSIVE transformation. Big fucking muscles and height and all, just to fight Wonder Woman. BUT guess what? His face does not change at all!! WTF. Is he still trying to hide his God-Face from Wonder Woman in this big battle with her? If you planned on disguising your real face again then just do it whenever that time came. There's NO REASON FOR THE VILLAIN TO HAVE HIS HUMAN FACE DISGUISE sitting on top of his real or stronger or whatever God-like body. It looked rigoddamndiculous!!! Again, you got to see this stupid continuity error for yourself!!

All in all this movie, with it's clumsy visual storytelling mistakes and all is worth it. Were  it not for Gal, this film would've been the next installment in DC's bullshit-ass motion picture collection. Whatever they paid her it wasn't enough. Oh, and by the way, I wasn't surprised to see the name of Zack Snyder listed as one of the 'Story' creators on this movie. Why is this guys still involved in super hero films after those two fucked up super hero tales, The 'Superman' relaunch film and 'Batman Vs Superman'  movies???? What the fuck is going on there at DC Comics / Warner Bros. with this guy?? Are they all 'pals for life' or something?? He's a lousy fucking writer!! Stop letting him write until he takes a course in writing / storytelling or something! Fuck! Nearly everyone of his super hero films has a big FAKE armegeddon size battle at the end. All feel forced and artificial! He had a hit with his FRANK MILLER WRITTEN '300' movie and now all of a sudden everyone thinks he's some hot-shot master of comic books-to-film projects. This is some bullshit, I tell you. Some absolute bullshit. '300' was HISTORICAL FANTASY for one thing, not super hero films!! Let me repeat that: HISTORICAL FANTASY and not SUPER HERO FILMS. Stop assuming that people who can swim fast can also run fast too! Give some professional writers a fucking chance, why don't you . Fans don't give a flying fuck if the latest hot shot director is not WRITING the movie. Fans want good stuff, that's it! Stop lowbrowing this shit! Stop dumbing shit down for the two or 3 idiots in the audience. Raise your fucking writing standards. This Wonder Woman story is shit! Full of goofy, unbelievable characters! Gasp.

One note: A pleasing surprise was the actress and character that played the German poison gas expert -Elana Anaya / Dr. Poison. She was the ONLY character besides Wonder Woman and Steve Trevor that even felt realistic. The rest felt like cardboard cut-outs!

I ran across this quote a few days ago from pro-amateur (meaning awful) comic book artist Jim Lee that some people actually believes means something:

"One of the key characteristics of the comic book medium is that it is not brought to life by just one voice." - Jim Lee quotes from BrainyQuote.com.

How in the hell is that a KEY CHARACTERISTIC of the comic book medium when it is also shared by ALL OTHER MEDIUMS AND ACTIVITIES OF MANKIND IN GENERAL???? It's not a distinguishing feature of 99% of anything on Earth. The other 1% isn't worth your fucking time.

This is how you become 'Captain Obvious', folks. Of course not one person's voice is involved. Everybody knows that. WTF. And this shit is on 'BrainyQuotes'. BRAINY QUOTES.

 Will the real Hawkeye please stand up!! (hint: the one on the right)

Will the fake Scarlet Witch please sit down!! (hint: the one on the left)

Will the real King Arthur please COME BACK AND SAVE US FROM HOLLYWOOD BULLSHIT?? How about Merlin?? ANYBODY???

This article (link below) has an interesting premise: What would the Marvel Comics Universe look like if the Hollywood hotshots in charge stayed loyal to the comic book costume designs? The clickbait photos caught my attention: Hawkeye looked great IN HIS COMIC BOOK COSTUME. So did the Scarlet Witch.

But when you read the article the writer unfortunately takes the same condescending 'comic book costumes are ridiculous' attitude that resulted in the conforming 'one tactical design fits all super hero costumes' view that modern super hero films have. There's nothing wrong with the flagrant designs of costumes in film or comics, it's up to the director and producers to make it WORK (remember the old TV shows? They stuck to the costumes and it worked: the classic Wonder Woman TV show, Batman, Spider-Man, the Hulk too).

Unable to rise to this visual storytelling challenge they instead dumb down every super hero costume into a bunch of 'lines' and militaristic duds. Throw in a bunch of gizmos or stupid shit like Captain America's 'parachute' straps (in the first film) and you have a 'superless' looking super hero.

Not surprisingly these movies don't make nearly as much as they could make if they just put aside their goddamn know-it-all egos and let the fucking stories already told be their guide. The most shocking example of this is the treatment of the Mandarin character in that forgettable Iron Man movie. They fucked that character up by hiring Ben Kingsley, a British Arab to play a role written for a Asian. Then they stand back and shake their heads as fans tear another A-hole into them.

To make the 'profit' illusion even better the know-it-alls take a look at the fan-driven profits and say, "Look, we were right. The movie made a BILLION DOLLARS." I got news for you, you dumb fuckers, you coulda make 18 billion dollars and saved money on design and actors if you'd have stayed true to the comic books cheaper designs and hired unknown actors to play these parts in more of a quantity than the big stars. Give the main role to Ben Affleck but give smaller roles to lesser know actors. The movies are driven by fans! The fans drag their mothers to see it or indifferent friends. Now you've sold your movie two times or more because if the damn film looks like a comic book I WILL WATCH IT 5 FUCKING TIMES IN THE THEATER and buy the fucking DVD after it leaves it!!! That's how Star Wars became such a big hit. It didn't rely on 1 viewing x a billion people to make it's money. Fans saw the damn thing EVERY WEEK, OVER AND OVER AGAIN. The same people!!! As it is right now I can only watch a Marvel Universe or DC film ONLY ONCE because none or part of it relates to the fucking comic books. It's so whatever! Directors and everybody else doing whatever the hell they please with the PRE-ESTABLISHED IDEAS, catering to COMPLETELY FALSE REASONS FOR PREVIOUS SUCCESSES.

WTF. This has turned into another rant. Maybe that's because I'm sick and tired of shelling out all my motherfucking money to tired ass shit. Take this months 'King Arthur'. A tale that's been told to death. TO DEATH. Why aren't we seeing a 'The Adventures of Sir Lancelot'??? I'd much rather see another character's POV of the Arthur legend than to see ARTHUR AGAIN. Man on man. WTF.

Anyway, for those still reading this, have you ever seen a cosplay actor looking ridiculous in the costume of theirs and yours favorite character??? I doubt it. They look COOL AS HELL. When is Big Hollywood going to understand this. Fuck this article, man. Even the poses of the characters are staged to look as if they would end up looking 'ridiculous' in their true costumes. Why didn't they do the comparison with more dramatic poses from these films than these stoic ones??

I never get stupidity, that's why I fucking hate it so much. Oh, man. Now that I think of it the whole motivation for these costume changes it supposedly to make the character's MORE REALISTIC. What a bunch of hypocrisy if you REMOVE THE MASK THE COMIC BOOK CHARACTER HAS. The mask is to protect his private life so that super villains can't easily find and kill him AND HIS FAMILY. Now we have Hawkeye and others WITHOUT MASK, running around saving the world. Stupid. Easily traceable super heroes who you can GET BACK AT later on if they defeat your evil plans. None of these costume changes are realistic. WTF. Did someone change the meaning of the word 'realistic' lately??
