Of Trump’s And Pence’s Space Farce And That New Most Popular Film Oscar

After hearing(and seeing) Vice President Mike Pence(The Suckatollah himself) plugging President Donald Trump’s brand new Space Force program(are both Trump and Pence[and their conservative media/far right conspiracy theorists Truthers/Fox News allies) really that extremely paranoid of the V aliens,the MARS ATTACKS aliens,and STAR WARS’ Kylo Ren and The First Order coming to invade the Earth ?),I had to take a few weeks off in not immediately commenting on this new absurdity since nothing is sacred anymore,while putting up with various Letterboxd essays of sucky modern horror films(of the Overhyped To The Moons Of Saturn And Back kind[mainly the crappy gratuitous remakes]),for both modern horror fans and modern horror cinema journalists(of both genre magazines and Internet horror/genre film news sites) really need to educate themselves on the history of horror cinema(and genre cinema[as well a the past horror/genre fandom community]) to fully understand how the genre(and traditional horror cinema[of the 20s through the 90s]) works instead of sounding like members of The Age Of Harry Knowles Generation.

Speaking of The Age Of Harry Knowles Generation,there is now a new Harry Knowles(a person who one can say killed and ruined everything in the genre) inspired Academy Award(a.k.a.:the Oscars) that is known as the Most Popular Film Oscar,a new award that has raised the wrathful ires of fans(and fanboys,fangirls,and “geeks”[as the modern fandom generation refers to themselves as]) who claim that this new Oscar disgraces the progress that genre films have made in recent years with the Oscars.  Actually not,as that easily gives the likes of the Marvel Comics films,horror films such as IT and THE CONJURING,sci-fi films such as STAR WARS,and action films such as THE FAST AND THE FURIOUS an easy chance to snare an Oscar as it would help further the cause of genre films more in giving them another easy chance at scoring Oscar gold,as hopefully this new award won’t descend downward for just drama films as the Best make-Up Oscar(which was originally intended for special make-up effects films[and their make-up effects maestros]) sadly has.

If He Was Still Alive,Wally George Would Have Aligned With The Russians By Now

Yep: Russkies hating ultra conservative/Republican supporter Wally George(of the 80s’ wacky off-the-wall conservative syndicated television shitfest HOT SEAT) would have indeed have changed his views on Russians and immediately joined Russia’s side along with the far right wing Republicans,Libertarians,and Tea Party allies if he was still alive,something that Steven Seagal also did as he also has a home over there and has been appointed by Russian President Vladimir Putin as an Ambassador to strengthen relations between America and Russia(since President Donald Trump also has a secret home over there[that he’ll likely escape to if Robert Mueller ever gets his investigation against him and his Administration going).

And also,Kristy Swanson(DEADLY FRIEND,[the original]BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER) has now revealed herself as a far right wing supporter as she now has a job as one of the regular on Greg Gutfeld’s vomit inducing Fox News weekend show,a move that’ll cause her fanbase to likely deflat(in a massive way) as badly as the ones for Scott Baio and Antonio Sabata Jr. has.

Boy,is August starting out as a really mad month(with now only four months left in this year)…

Coming To Theaters On Friday: THE MEG(Jason Statham’s Killer Shark Film That I Hope Is Much Better Than Its Wack Looking Trailers) And SLENDER MAN(The Joey King Starring PG-13 Rated Horror Yarn That Is Being Dumped By Its Studio Into Many Theaters: At Least It’s Not Being Shelved Or Tossed Onto Netflix),As Well As The Filipino Actioner BUYBEST(In A Handful Of Select Regional Theaters)

R.I.P.: Grandmaster Sexay(Brian Christopher Lawler). F.U.: Jeff Sessions And The DOJ And Their Fascist Theocracy Opening Religious Liberty Task Force

If Mitch McConnell,Mike Pence,and Jeff Sessions attempted to bust out Too Cool’s dance moves,it would be like seeing them having an epilepsy seizure as they then tumble upon each other.

As yesterday was a severely hard day in dealing with the sudden deaths of Nikalai Volkoff,Brickhouse Brown,and Brian Christopher Lawler,today is just an equally painful day in learning that corrupt Attorney General Jeff Sessions and the DOJ(Department Of Justice) are now passing a new law called the Religious Liberty Task Force in which they claim will protect religious freedom.

I loudly call “Bullshit !!!” on that,since it is a widely opened door for fascist theocracy(as Frank Zappa warned us all about in the mid 80s) that’ll only allow hate groups and far right wing Christians to strip away all of our civil rights,social freedoms,and free speech as it will lonely bring major doom to gays,transgenders,minorities,and progressive liberals as these severely twisted people are planning something really bad that’ll majorly harm America,unless the likes of Canada and South America bravely step in to help the Democrats and the progressive liberals before these Tea Party controlled far right wing Republicans and conservatives transform America into a fascist nation and everyone will be driven into being thrusted into a Second Civil War(as much as I really,really hope never happen).

Eat Shit and Fuck You,Jeff Sessions and The DOJ and their stupid,sucky ass Religious Liberty Task Force.   😛 😛

STAR WARS:EPISODE 9 Surely Sounds Not-So-Good,For While Wisely Having Billy Dee Williams And Mark Hamill(Likely As Luke’s Force Ghost) Is Good Using Leftover FORCE AWAKENS Footage Of Carrie Fisher Is A Truly Awful Idea(as Is The Casting Of Talent Leaden Keri Russell) That’ll Only Weaken The Film As Much As The Lack Of Harrison Ford’s Han Solo(Whose Character Is As Much A Necessity[To The Series] As Luke Skywalker,Even If Alden Ehrenreich Has To Be Recruited To Play Han).  As A Longtime STAR WARS Fan Since The First Film Came Out In 1977(Who Took Plenty Of Beatings From Junior High School Students[For Being A STAR WARS Fan]),I Loudly Say Fuck You To Both J.J. Abrams And Kathleen Kennedy For Killing The Saga A Lot More Painfully Than George Lucas Attempted To With His Prequels Trilogy.

Did “A Galaxy Far,Far Away” Take Out GUARDIANS’ Main Man ?

This weekend during the San Diego Comic Con(alias The mainstream Commercial Nerd Prom),the plans for ex-Troma Films scriptwriter-turned-major Hollywood player James Gunn was going to appear to announce his next film project as it only turned out that he got fired from making his GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY films due to some sexual inneunedo stuff from his past early Twitter days that have resurfaced to cost him his job that enabled him to help make marvel Comics even more popular and as mega successful as ever with his GUARDIANS… films.

While I’m not a fan of Gunn I have enjoyed both of his GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY films as well as both SUPER and SLITHER,for since Lucasfilms’ head honcho Kathleen Kennedy made a slamming comment upon Gunn a few minutes after the news of his past tweets were announced it makes me deeply wonder if two certain people(with one of them definitely Not being Rian Johnson) who are the top people behind the current incarnation of that Galaxy Far,Far Away possibly had Gunn run out of both his next GUARDIANS film and Disney Studios altogether since they possibly feel that Gunn’s two GUARDIANS… films stole away their thunder since the recent STAR WARS films(mainly EPISODE 8:THE LAST JEDI) left many fans(mainly the younger ones) as heavily frustrated upon the recent crop of films from that Galaxy Far,Far Away to the point of attacking half of the current films’ stars and boycotting seeing SOLO:A STAR WARS STORY as those fans’ jackass action have badly tarnished the good image of the many,many older fans who hung out at theaters many months before a new STAR WARS film would come out and have devotedly carried he films for many years and that Don’t Deserve to be singled out amongst these idiots that are making the fans look very bad(as it also happens with both wrestling and horror) and help give fandom a really bad name.

Otherwise,the indie horror scene and the mainstream horror community will(like they will with Chris Hardwick) welcome James Gunn with open arms and aid him in making a new genre film that’ll be enough to help him forget about this current mess(that he has his name caught up in).

Future Films That I Don’t Give A Care About Seeing: Quentin Tarantino’s ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD,Rob Zombie’s THREE FROM HELL(A.K.A.:HOUSE OF 1000 CORPSES 3/THE DEVIL’S REJECTS 2),REVENGE(With That Chick From RINGS),The Soska Sisters’ RABID Remake,And Any JIGSAW Film(Since Last Year’s JIGSAW Film Was Truly The Absolute Shitz).

Sorry HEREDITARY,But Both ANNIHILATION And UPGRADE Are Still Truly Two Of 2018’s Best Films.

Fight For Your Right To Protect The Supreme Court From The Far Right Lunatics

Just when I was going to write something about both the soon-to-film(at the end of this month)STAR WARS;EPISODE 9(with[former Don Dohler production employee] J.J. Abrams planning to cast [the relatively flat] Keri Russell in the new film[how about Rosemund Pike{GONE GIRL,DIE ANOTHER DAY}as a vengeance seeking Qi’ra{of SOLO:A STAR WARS STORY},and why isn’t Domhall Gleeson{alias General Hux} yet casted in the new film ?]) and the many celebrity passings that have happened(drummer Vinnie Paul[{the late}Dimebag Darrell’s brother],PAWN STARS’ “Old Man” Richard Harrison,controversial genre writer Harlan Ellison,Leon “Big Van Vader/Vader” White) in the past month,suddenly another political event happens that have distracted me to once again get political(of the left leaning kind),for if you despise political talk it is time to now leave the room.

The Supreme Court is now in major danger,as judge Arthur Kennedy has decided to retire and the far right wing forces of President Donald Trump(the would-be new Ronald Reagan),Vice President Mike Pence,and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell are now seeking new judges that they’ll make sure that that chosen new judge will be one that’ll demolish abortion,gay/trans rights,civil rights,and all other social freedoms as that’ll place America’s freedom in a disastrous situation which would make America lose its title of being “The Land Of The Free”.  With all of the current problems of Hispanic migrant children being placed in interment camps(with some of them mysteriously disappearing),the political dividing of America(which will continue as long as both McConnell and Pence are in power[if Trump was to be evicted from office]), and strong anti-Hispanic immigrant stances by the media(which is also divided[and was at one time under Reagan’s strongly hypnotic spell]),it makes me wonder which direction American society will go if an uber conservative judge gets chosen that is hostile toward social freedoms that would make things a lot more tenser than it already is and as it socially was during Richard Nixon’s Presidential years,the latter which life in the post-9/11 21st. Century has been feeling an awful lot like as it has challenged many people to see if they can endure much more of it,for all that we’ve all have got to do is stay and remain as closely knitted together and remain strong and full of progressive values as this already extremely bumpy ride of Donald Trump’s Presidential years(with both McConnell and Pence tightly behind him) is about to get an awful lot more bumpier.

I’ll Just Wisely End It Here With This Video Clip Of The One And Only Frank Zappa(Whose Words And Thoughts Are Eerily Relevant Today As They Were Back In The 80s)…

Something To Quickly Say…

With all of the massive news media reporting on the thousands of poor illegal immigrant/migrant children from Mexico that are being placed in internment prisons across the country,this is a pretty upsetting situation that even made MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow weep on cable television.

Even while the likes of President Donald Trump(who has transformed from a left leaning cheesy reality media celebrity-to-a mindless puppet for the far right wing[courtesy of his far right wing leaning sons Donald Jr. and Eric]),Fox News,the conservative talking heads,and the assbites at Alex Jones’ Infowars network and all of the far right wing conspiracy theorist/Truther places are pointing the finger of accusation(and playing the blame game) on the Democrats(who have no such power in ordering such a horrific thing),this jailed migrant children thing is actually a wet dream for the likes of Jeff Sessions,Mike Pence,Mitch McConnell,Paul Ryan,Ann Coulter,Betsy DeVos,Fox News,and Infowars’ sadistic czar Alex Jones as they would enjoy seeing much worse happening to those poor children and they’re surely brainwashing the public into being completely numb about this ugly situation.

Thankfully,this time is unlike the 80s since half of America(that is on the left-to-moderate side) is fully aware and is fully listening since it is too heartbreaking upon knowing that this tragedy is going on in our nation and that there is too much on my mind going on that keeps me from being deeply concerned about it that I just can’t further get into.

And Since Everyone Else Is Endlessly Talking About This Tragic Issue Left And Right(Since Jello Biafra Just Posted A Brand New YouTube Video About This Very Issue),I’ll Just End It Here. And Yes,Melania Trump; We All Really,Really Care(Even Though I’m Sure Your Green Jacket’s Message Was Aimed Primarily At The Media).

See ‘Ya All Next Time…

With His UFC Career A Complete Bust,Where Does CM Punk Go From Here ?

This past week and weekend was a very complicated one for Phillip Brooks,better known to everyone as CM Punk as he won his court case against WWE doctor Stephen Amman,but scored a major career devastating loss to Mike Jackson at his second UFC match that took place in his own hometown of Chicago.

The UFC of the 21st. century isn’t a wrestling friendly place(even though it began in the 90s as welcoming wrestlers to join in on their Octagon ring fights) as the fans and the UFC employees are often known to be completely anti-wrestling in their meathead mentality as whatever MMA fighting skills that Punk displayed in his wrestling matches didn’t translate well in the UFC Octagon as the UFC/MMA world is a completely different atmosphere upon where an in-ring fighter has to adapt to a much different fighting style in order to succeed there,as Joe Rogan may have been a complete bunghole in calling Punk “a dumb worthless piece-of-shit” but he did make a good point in representing the attitudes of the anti-wrestling UFC/MMA fans who feel that Punk doesn’t belong in UFC/MMA as much as UFC’s head honcho Dana White(who I often disagree with an awful lot) did wisely tell Punk that it’s time to move away from UFC/MMA fighting(as well as publicly can both Punk and Jackson out of the federation).   Punk is pretty lucky that his two wrestling arch rivals The Hardy Boys Matt and Jeff didn’t show up to start up “Delete,Delete,Delete !!!” and “Obsolete,Obsolete,Obsolete !!!” chants to get both the audience and Jackson to get into(as well as maker the “Delete !!!” arm gesture) and screaming(and chanting) “Cookiepuss !!!(which Dwayne “The Rock” Johnson called Punk in one of his last WWE runs) at him(to humiliate him even further).

As Jackson will possibly show up in Bellator,one wonders where Punk will go from here,since Bellator possibly isn’t interested in obtaining him and there is still bad blood between him and the WWE,for since ROH(Ring Of Honor) is too small of a federation to obtain him with the likes of both All In(the Cody Rhodes and The Young Bucks[they being the Jackson brothers Matt and Nick] backed wrestling event) and New Japan(where wrestling is respected[and represented] as a much more competitive sport) with their Wrestle Kingdom 2019 event being Punk’s best options should he ever feel the passion to return to wrestling,since New Japan would treat him like royalty and would pay him much better than both the UFC and the WWE can,for we all need now is for Punk to decide whether or not to make that very surprise appearance at either(or both) All In and/or Wrestle Kingdom 2019 as both of those events would likely resurrect Punk’s passion for wrestling should be ever decide to undertake it.

And BTW: I’m glad that President Donald Trump’s meeting with North Korea dictator Kim Jun Un went well and that he safely got out from that meeting without a scratch.

UPGRADE Rocks(!!!) While HEREDITARY Sucks(!!!),For Definitely See UPGRADE and The Trailers Of Both SUSPIRIA 2018 And HALLOWEEN 2018 Again.  And I’ll Patiently(And Wisely) Wait Until I See Both SUSPIRIA 2018 And HALLOWEEN 2018 In A Theater Before I Say Any Word On Them.
