COMING SOON: THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO
One of the most anticipated American remakes adapted from the late Swedish novelist Stieg Larsson. This film is of course the second adaptation of the book, with the first being the classic 2009 Swedish language film of the same name.
Though I am not a supporter of American Remakes as they are:
A. Generally not as good as the original foreign counterparts
B. Assuming that Americans are idiots and won't get the original or will not read subtitles.
C. CGI laden and never seem to stick to the original style that made the foreign version so popular.
this ones (based on what I have seen for the trailer) seems to have at least stayed true to the book as well as the look and feel staying true to the original Swedish movie.
Carey Mulligan and Anne Hathaway. Some other "supposed" actress vying for the roll were Natalie Portman , Keira Knightley, Emma Watson( Harry Potter), Ellen Page (Juno Fame), Mia Wasikowska( Easy A and the new Mary Jane Watson from Spiderman Reboot). Its even been said that Scarlett Johansson and perpetual "Debbie Downer" Kristen Stewart (Bella of Twilight) wanted the roll...But honestly Scarlett Johansson? Are you even serious? Do we not remember that horrible Aeon Flux movie with Charlize Theron? BUT, Kristen Stewart would have incited a riot. Secretly, my curiosity would have liked to see "Hermiome"(Emma Watson) get a little gritty, lol...she supposedly even cut her hair to show dedication to getting the part.
Wonder how good the remake will be?

COMING SOON: THE HANGOVER PART 2
Mike Tyson is scheduled to reprise his role as himself from the first film and if you notice Ed Helms character "Stu" has "face tattoo" like Mike. Paul Giamatti has been cast in an unspecified role and it Ken Jeong is back as Leslie Chow.
Liam Neeson will have a cameo as Neeson replaced Mel Gibson as a Bangkok tattoo artist following a revolt by the cast and crew against Gibson's involvement in the movie.
Update: Word also has it that they are looking for Charlie Sheen to make some sort of appearance in the movie, even though shooting for this film has ended....WINNING!

WTF: RACIAL STEREOTYPING TO PROMOTE COMPANY?
The whole premise of the commercial is to show how "Jawbone products eliminate noise" , illustrated after an obnoxious yuppie comes into the store and starts stereotyping the workers.
It was funny up until the end, where the extreme graphics made us slightly uncomfortable...which is hard as we are definitely inappropriate people most of the time. Take a look at the commercial below...but don't ask me why they labeled it "Hot Asian Girls Beat Down White Guy"

FRIDAY VS FRIDAY : MASH UP
When I first saw the clip on a "show that shall remain nameless" I thought that they had doctored the clip , but after seeing the original, I see that it is how she really sounds. I would say her voice sounds "chipmunk like" with a little touch of "robot", but even Alvin and the chipmunks could sing in tune. Now as with all viral hits, the "Parodies" and "Mash Up's" have started...this one is one of the better ones called "Friday vs Friday" which is a mashop of Jessica Black's song and the Ice-Cube/ Chris Tucker cult classic movie "Friday"...take a look below and if you want to see the original Friday song by Rebecca Black, take a look below the mash up.
