CELEB RIP OF THE DAY


Every few days were going to be doing a Celeb rip of the day, noticing stupid and amazing attics from stars, you think their God like figures that can walk on water. When in reality your an ACTOR!!!! Your doing what your told of you, by the film makers. I've always wondered where did the starts get the idea that you get everything landed to you on a sliver platter.

The first CELEB RIP will be the talented.... and I try to say that without laughing. The young 23 Linsday Lohan.

Ok, so this girl has been in the tabliods for quite some time, and the beauty is. I don't remember the last movie she did, that gave her positive reviews. All you hear is the crazy human nature that has made Lohan famous for being a washed out crack whore.

Lohan has hit a true note of Spiteful Princess Narcissism. While she's been noted on set as being "irresponsible and unprofessional" from studio executive James G. Robinson. Remarking her for being late and being absent on set. Its clear there's more on her mind than Acting. Shortly after the movie "I knew Who Killed Me" in 2007 , sher checked into rehab after rehab, trying to get "better". She withdrew from 2 movies, claiming she need to focus on getting better. While her people covered by saying shes going through a real bad time..... I smell bullshit.

She signed to the movie Poor Things, and four days before production got a DUI, found a usuable amount of cocaine in her car, and entered Rehab again. Holy shit thats a shock. Then another DUI and rehab again. Oh my god does this women live at REHAB or something. Jesus!

Now 2010, and its seems like the probelm won't fade away. I don't remember the last 2 years with a movie coming out wit her. Its just more negative and outspoken behaviour from the diva, herself. In March 2010 he was told at a London Night Club to put out her smoke. When asked 4 times, the waitress removed the smoke from her mouth and took care of the problem herself. Thats when Lohan screamed, HOW DARE YOU? DO YOU KNOW WHO I AM? and tried many times to burned her skirt with her lighter. Or you 23 or just a fucking child?

Lins its about time, you stop drinking, stop flashing your junk, stop the coke, and actually focus on what you've tried since day..... Acting and Entertaining. You got the entertainment aspect down pat. But once you quit all the other shit, then perhaps... the talent... will... come back?

COOLIEST BLAXPLOITATION FILM EVER!!!!!! BLACK DYNAMITE


I've seen alot of Blaxploitation movies from the 70's Grindhouse, to the Spike Lee Generation. I can honestly say that BLACK DYNAMITE is one of the cooliest, funniest, and action packed form of entertainment shoved into 90min of pure fun.

Black Dynamite, a former CIA agent, vows to clean up the streets after his brother is killed by a shady organization. O' Leary, Blacks old CIA partner, reinstates Dynamite back into the agency because they don't want him to seek vengeance on his own. Trying to get to the bottom od his brother's death, he finds out that his brother actually worked for the CIA. Dynamite also finds out the shady organization is filling orphanages with Herion. He declares war on local drug dealers and trys to successfully clean up the streets.

The film really goes back to the roots of grindhouse exploitation. The shots are sometimes out of focus, and shakey camera work. Everytime Dynamite enters a room, a 70's Soul ballad comes on that has a sound of old school James Brown and screams: DYNAMITE... DYNAMITE!

The fight scenes are made to make you laugh, with old school black guys all geared out looking like 70's pimps doing hardcore Kung Fu. This film exploders with loads of good fun.

Michael Jai White, who plays Black Dynamite delievers every line with a punch, and makes sure that Black Dynamite will be remembered like John McMillcam in Die Hard, and Dirty Harry in the Dirty Harry series. Pulling all the stops, and cracking all the drug dealers in the face.

What really makes this film interesting, for me is the fact that they thought of the idea aroudn April 2006, while listening to James Brown's, Superbad. Michael Jai, used to host blaxpoitation movie parties where he picked up the "funny inconsistencies" in the films. White would rent costumes, photographed himself to show Scott Sanders (the director) who was attached to the idea.
The orignal trailer was recorded even before the film went into Production in order to raise money. It incorporated scenes from old blaxploitation movies with old voice overs from Adolph Caesar. The trailer was shot on Super 8mm film for around $ 500. White and Sanders showed it to Jon Steingart who said right away, "Oh My God! Okay, we can raise the money for this.

After it was financed, the script took 3 weeks. With Sanders getting a bit off track, he was able to hlep more in the re- write. With Byron Minns knowledge of blaxploitation, he was able to write the script faster, and faster.

The production was shot on Super 1`6 reversal Kodak Film Stock to get the high contrast and saturated look. It would be later converted to digital for editing. It was shot in 20 years in LA wuth several green screen days and one re-shoot. Considering its low budget of 2.9 Million, they really had to think in the older blaxploitation movies. They did have a difficult time removing the modern world out of the film. Sanders was worried anything modern, could destroy the film , while White worked individually with actors to keep their tone correct.

Black Dynamite permired at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival where Sony Worldwide Asquisitions picked it up for distributation for nearly 2 Million. In June it went on and won the Golden Space Needle Audience Award for Best Film at the Seattle International Film Festival, beating out THE HURT LOCKER, among other films.

Go see BLACK DYNAMITE its funny as hell for the Frat House drinking buddies, a riot of a film for stoners alike, and cleaver enough for the film buffs.

Street Trash Ratin: 8/10
Street Trash: Some people won't get it, if you love bad movies you'll love what its trying to do. Movies that try to look bad always turn out to be a hit.




Kick Ass: Kicked Ass and probably would have kicked harder without: N Cage!

KICK ASS
2010 - Comedy - 100min
R aka: 18A


I was one of the those people who was all for this movie. I loved the trailer, and judging my the official websites "Red Band" Trailer it looked like Superbad but with Superheroes. But not your typical Spiderman man or Hulk re-vamp from the so called Marvel Studios. Everyday people like us, just having that old childhood fantasy about being a superhero. It would be awesome if you could fly, shoot shit out of your hand etc. But then a little thing called reality comes back into play, next thing you realize your 35 years old, jerking off to the movie Heavy Metal while you live in your mothers basement. Thats why superheros in real life don't exist.

The film is a story of a normal teen, Dave who sets out to become a real life superhero. After a youtube video showing what shit the kids got, it was clear his name was KICK ASS. But Dave aka Kick Ass gets caught up in bigger shit, when he meets BIG DADDY, a former cop whos on a quest to bring down evil drug lord, Frank D'Amico. He has been on the Quest so Goddamn all, that he has even trained his ruthless 11 year old daughter, HIT GIRL.

But The film actually had high hopes for me going in. I went in to see A movie which my case wasn't all bad. But it wasn't funny as fucking hell, like the trailer made it out to be. What made it really fucking great was they really played up the over dramatic element throughout. But still anytime I see a movie with N CAGE in it, oh God I just want to get a gun and shoot the damn television his talentless ass in on. My God, now don't get the idea. He... was badass in GONE IN 60 SECONDS. The keyword here is was. It doesn't seem like he had a fucking clue in this film. He was a bit of a dumbass, just like Leaving Las Vegas, but without the booze involved.

The scene near the end ruins anything Cage built up for himself in this movie, just like THE WICKER MAN, he screams like a fucking retard, as he's on fire, burning to death. It is not believable, yet I hope to hell Cage doesn't feel like that was the best take he could do.
Both Daniel Craig and Marky Mark were considered for the role of Big Daddy, before N Cage go the part. N Cage modeled his speech mannerisms as Big Baddy on the orignal Batman Adam West. According to Mattew Vaughn (director) Cage started acting this way at the first costume fitting. The director was happy as hell for Cage to continue with this performance in the film, citing his irrtation with the gravelly voice Christian Bale used in The Dark Knight (2008). Mark Miller and Matthew Vaughn worked really close for the Marvel Adaptation THOR (2011), but Vaughn ultimately left the project. Vaughn came to see if Miller had any interesting ideas, nearly leading to a sequel to the Bible called AMERICAN JESUS. As they were discussing that, Miller mentioned KICK ASS, and started sending Vaughn early scripts for the comic. Accoding to Miller the infamous "C - Word scene" is the moment in issue 3 of the comic where Matthew Vaughn was convinced it was a worthy project.
After being rejected by every studio they approached. Vaugh was able to raise the budget at a dinner party, and made the movie independently. In the end Vaughn ultimately sold the movie to Universal for more than he orignally asked them for. KICK ASS is an awesome movie, but N Cage ruins the ending, as always.

Street Trash Rating: 7/10.
Street Trash: Not Really, but I would Rent, before I buy and judge for yourself. I loved it, just minus the last 10min and it would have been an 8.


Arnold Schwarzenegger needs to be another ACTION HERO!!!


I don't know about you guys, but I don't want Arnold in politics anymore. Don't get me wrong he's done alot for California, but at the same time, we want those GOD DAMN ACTION MOVIES BACK!!!! Remember watching old school action movies: RAMBO First Blood, Die Hard, Cliffhanger, The Running Man. Don't you want just shit to blow up, and everyone be in a war of non stop action. Whats the overall plot? WHO GIVES A SHIT! Its an ACTION MOVIE!!!!!

I was watching recently, Total Recall and True Lies, and their all totally awesome, action packed movies with major explosions, violences and arnolds classic one liners. So whats the probelm with the Governor. Why won't he be battling politics by day, and destroying up the screen by night. He needs to make another film!!!!!



NIGHTMARE REMAKE That Kills itself in its Sleep!

A Nightmare On Elm Street - Remake
2010 - Horror - 98min
R aka: 18A

Ok! I'm all for the Horror movie genre, hell I was a kid too. Sneaking down stairs to watch a movie or tv show that my parents would disapprove, all good fun. But now Hollywood since about 2001, hasn't been able to scare a granny in the crowd to the point where her pants are as moist with fear as her little heart is. Everytime I go see a so called, "Horror Movie" it puts itself to death.

Now I'm a huge Wes Craven fan. From the Hills Have Eyes (the orignal, not the shitty remake), Shocker, The Last House on the Left (the orignal, not the disturbing remake), Scream, and I could go on and on. But WHY! Wes! WHY sell your idea to Michael Bay. Why!!!!!!

The film stars Jackie Earle Haley as Freddy Krueger, a role made famous by Robert Englund. Rooney Mara plays Nacy Holbrook, loosely based on the character Nancy Thompson, orignally portrayed by Heather Langenkamp. Set in the present day, Freddy stalks the dreams of Nancy and her friends as they discover that they all share a common link from their childhood; they were all physically and sexually abused by Freddy before he was murdered by their vengeful parents. Now a supernatural force in their dreams, Freddy kills off the children that alerted the parents about his deeds.

I went to see the new Nightmare remake last weekend, and I can honestly say, what I God awful piece of shit. Don't get me wrong. Its probably the best they can do with a budget of 29 Million. Give me a break the orignal Nightmare in 1984 had a shit budget of 1.8 Million to work with, and its a cult classic for a reason. Wes sold his soul to the devil, Michael Bay and like every other thing Bay is given. At first its gold, but he turns it into shit.

Probably the only good thing in the movie was Jackie Earle Haley, who got a chance to play the infamous Freddy. But either than that, its a straight to DVD rental, with no purchasing item included. The dialogue is horrible, the direction the remake went was stupid, the High School kids get more retarded in movies as the years go on. In 84 when someone said don't go in the door, you go in the door. Now a days they say don't go into door, by just going into the door. Next their killed...... Wow wheres the fucking shock, gasp and awe. Also the only way to make a horror movie... well a horror movie is by adding sound effects all over the place, that will make the audience jump 20 feet everytime they hear it. Its balls to just rely on a movie to distill fear in you with nothing but Sound Design. The Editing is good, but the CGI could have been done better, if Michael Bay didn't like it. Some of the deaths in CGI were crap. The infamous scene where Nancy is sleeping and Freddy starts coming through the wall, in the orignal it was a visual effect. Now a days its a CGI effect is placed to ruin a cool 80's effect, as well as take you out of the movie.
The one thing that I found out, that pissed me off about the Film recently is that Wes Craven actually had no say in the remake what so ever. But he did however publicly spoken about being against it. I agree with him. Don't ruin an icon that he made in horror. It was also reported that they were thinking of doing it as a prequel, but the idea was dropped fast. It has also been noted that the script was written over 15 times, and that the final draft was based on 4 of the previous drafts. Thats bull shit. It takes 15 times to re - write a remake???? Maybe you should have talked to Wes before going with your own ideas.


Come fucking on people. Make a good remake and stop re- creating movies jsut for the sake of putting food on the table. this is street trash movie thats worth seeing after its out on DVD at your local Dollerama.

Street Trash Rating: 5.4/10
Street Trash: GOD AWFUL PIECE OF SHIT FROM MICHAEL BAY
