Blog of The Moment: Upcoming Comic Book Movies That Must Be Stopped
Ok, first let me start off by saying that I am all for comic book movies. If you think about it , I don’t know what took Hollywood so long to figure out that if you take what’s already in print in the form of comics and then put it up on the screen, for the most part you can get some satisfing entertainment.
However, I feel as though I must point out that for every Spider-Man, X-Men 2 or Batman Begins, we will inevitably be forced to sit through and grimace at the likes of Daredevil, Elektra, and Superman Returns.
The point that I’m trying to make is this; while it may be fun to read about the adventures and misgivings of hundreds of different characters from time to time, there is a reason why some properties sell better than others. That reason is this - you can only have so many characters with similar powers and have them all be interesting. Unfortunately, Hollywood doesn’t see things this way. They believe that if one “Comic Book” movie turns out to be successful, then they should be able to take any comic character and turn it into a money making machine. Oh Hollywood when will you learn?
Anyways, hit the link to read about several movies in development that really need to come to a halt.

Last year I brought you guys a video that had comedian Zach Galifianakis redoing Kanye West's video for the song Can't Tell Me Nothing. It's not really what you would call a cover of a song but it was entertaining none the less.
For years I really didn't bother paying attention to the political process other than to know who were my choices when it came down to it in choosing a president. Now that I'm a bit older and bit more mature (but not by much) I find myself completely drawn to this election.
Well the new year is starting to get under way, and to help things along, here's some commentary about the difference in the sexes when it comes to using an ATM.
Well old 2007 is almost over and if anything I think everyone can agree that this year saw more than its share of things, that if possible, we'd love to forget about.
Ho, Ho, Ho, there loyal readers. Since it's Christmas time I figured today's BOM should have something to do with this holiday season that we are currently in.
See here's the thing, I'm a child of the eighties.
Since today marks a time honored tradition of sitting down with family, looking around the dinner table gazing at the bountiful harvest that many a culinary artist has prepared, and just enjoying that fact that you are with those people you love the most (or hate the least) let us all take the time to reflect on all the good times we have had as we read today's BOTM brought to us by that wonderful, giving individual known the world over as the former Mr. Britney Spears.
Enjoy.
First let me start by saying that I love some Monopoly. Back when me and my first wife Chef used to have to go back and forth to Richmond VA every week to work, one of the things that we would do to kill the monotony of being there, was to play some good old fashioned Monopoly (all be it with some tricked out rules - in our games you could buy every square on the board as well as multi-board Monopoly)
Now here's the thing, as a child I didn't really have a lot of experience dressing up in costumes to go trick or treating, mainly because I grew up in a small country town and didn't live in a "neighborhood" conducive of trick or treating. Therefore my older sister and I would dress up for Halloween and then knock upon my mother's bedroom door and she would give us candy. (Don’t judge me monkey)
