Massacre at Central High

We began our March signing and promotion tour in South Padre Island...
Spring Break 2010...Think "Girls Gone Wild" meets "Bad Kids Go to Hell" because that is exactly what it was...
As we get on our way from the southern tip of Texas up to the Great White North on our little road trip, we have become a little nostalgic for what has brought us to this point...so we started looking up some youtube videos of trailers of some of our favorite movies...and as we stop in Nashville to do some promoting, we remembered a certain movie that is very inspirational to us...After viewing the trailer you will understand why...
Sure, you knew "Heathers" and "The Breakfast Club" influenced "Bad Kids Go to Hell." But we bet you never saw "Massacre at Central High!" And if you have...you are the baddest!
This is as classic as it gets...so appreciate it for all it's worth...or else we may have to whip out a clip of "The Dynamite Girls"...(the precursor to "Thelma & Louise")...

More Dynamite Than J.J. Evans!

Okay, so last Friday I was lucky enough to make a midnight screening of "Black Dynamite," at the Inwood Theater in Dallas, Texas.

Although the film has been out on DVD and Blu-Ray for several weeks, the theater seemed like a better way to experience this "bad assss" homage to the blaxploitation films of the 1970’s. The theater was recently refurbished, replacing standard movie theater chairs with couches and beanbags...and by recently, I mean that I was actually able to find for me and my bitches a comfy beanbag that hadn't yet been stained by delicious fruity sodas or other fluids of the night! (How perfect fo' this flick.)

"Black Dynamite" was fan-fuckin-tastic! It knocked out my two front teeth with a roundhouse kick of black fury! From start to finish, this mother fuckin' kung-fu flick never let up on the action or comedy! The constant jump-cuts, the frame penetrating shotgun mic’s, and the characters (Crème Corn, Sweetmeat, and my personal favorite: Tasty Freeze) made this movie feel like an ACTUAL blaxploitation film. And, of course, "Black Dynamite" is filled with memorable dialogue that kind of sticks:

"Fiendish Doctor Wu! You done fucked up now!" and "You diabolical dick shrinkin’ mother fuckers!" just to name a couple that I'll be sure to be repeating for quite some time...and most definitely to be read in some of my future blog postings, when there's just no other way to express what I'm saying.

So, the next day after seeing the movie, I found myself at the rental store trying to find a copy of "Black Dynamite." Sadly, all of the copies had been rented, and I was forced to go home Black Dynamite-less wearing a big frown on my face. (Hopefully, with the success of this movie there might be a sequel to continue the amazing adventure of Black Dynamite).

If you haven’t seen "Black Dynamite" yet, please do so. Once you do, your movie collection will not only grow by 1, but you'll be satisfied knowing that America has been made just that much more bad ass.

Don't Hurt 'Em, Hammer.

Apparently, "The Hurt Locker" is being thrown into the hurt locker for not being so accurate.

Now, let me be clear: The Doors NEVER drove into the desert and dropped acid. There was NO mysterious Mister X that "broke it down" to Jim Garrison about who might have wanted JFK killed. And Jack the Ripper was NOT a member of ANY royal family , (NOR a Freemason) who killed whores in a cover up!

So WHY would you think any EOD team member would ACTUALLY run around Iraq like a cowboy (with wire cutters?!?!) defusing deadly explosives and shit, while putting other team members at risk?

If it's on celluloid, it's just one thing: Entertainment.

And in its defense, a damn good piece of entertainment at that. Please give this movie the Oscar!

And "yes," even the Michael Moore stuff is nothing but entertainment, bitches. They don't ACTUALLY give you guns at a bank.

So Mania has their top 10 list of "COMIC BOOK STORY LINES THAT SHOULD BE TURNED INTO ANIMATED FEATURES" ..

Mania, Mania, Mania...you fellas are selling yourselves (and your list) waaay short...because while I agree that most of the titles & story lines on your list would make great animated features -- I believe numbers 10, 8, and 3 should be used as the basis for the LIVE ACTION films! Especially on the forthcoming revamp of the "Daredevil" film franchise -- AND the dismal story/ plots of the previous "Punisher" and "Silver Surfer" ("Fantastic 4") movies, a shot of adrenaline would help what ails these films. (What the fuck was that last FF4 film about anyway? Saving the planet, or how to make toast?)

I'd gladly see mafia widows thirsty for Frank Castle's blood as opposed to XYZ film actor as the heavy (casting directors, please stop shoving Travolta down our throats - It really AIN'T cool. )...

Give me a clean and understandable S.S. / Galactus story anytime...

AND the days we're living in DEMAND a "Daredevil down on his luck and in financial straights" film. The Kingpin was never so evil as when he played judge, jury and IRS auditor with poor Mr. Murdock.

If only Hollywood were that smart.

Well...then I, uh...guess I wouldn't be bloggin' 'bout this.

That's what I'm talking about, Willis!

Go back to 1986, listen to 'Flock of Seagulls', watch Don Johnson kick ass on Miami Vice.. and actually see MUSIC VIDEOS on MTV!

How many 80's teen, sex romp ski movies can YOU name?

Ah!! Don't think too hard - just go see this film.

If you don't, the terrorists win.

schools spying on kids at home

thanks to the good people at boingboing for uncovering this week's topic in school news...
brought to you by the not so good people of lower merion school district in pennsylvania who decided that one way to handle their "bad kids" was to have its schools use student laptop webcams to spy on the little bastards not just at school but at their homes as well...
1984?
nope...it's 2010 in the nanny states of america!
oh this cannot be...it's absurd...crazy...ridiculous..there's just no way...
WAY! and it's even worse than you think when you read the actual civil court filing...
"next week on 'to catch a predator' chris hansen surprises 7th grade social studies teacher at home sitting by her computer, sipping on a glass of cabernet, watching her favorite little bad boy get ready for bed..."
this is worse than robot teachers invading the classrooms!

Apparently, bad service can get you killed!

So.. a dude claiming to be a member of the Saudi royal family is being questioned by police on suspicion of murder after one of his servants was found strangled to death at the five-star Landmark Hotel in Marylebone, Central London.

'Royal Dude' told police he was a prince of the Saudi royal family, and was arrested several hours after the discovery of a body at the Landmark Hotel. Royal Dude is believed to have been in London as a tourist and flew around the world accompanied by his aide.

The suspect (Royal Dude) told police he was a cousin of King Abdullah. Following his arrest on Monday evening, police sources said Royal Dude is not covered by diplomatic immunity,

The victim, part of the Royal Dude's entourage, was found dead in a suite by a maid, having suffered severe head injuries in the attack.


Okay, now some FREE advice for all the other royal dudes in Saudi Arabia.. or where ever other royal dudes live.

If your servant, or slave, or whatever.. gets uppity with you, make said servant take off all their clothes and (based on their gender) dance either the 'jiggly weiner dance'.. or (my fave) the 'jiggly boobies dance'. Maybe throw a few cream pies at them while they do this. Maybe even film it, and post the whole dance on YouTube.

BUT NO MATTER WHAT .. DO NOT GET MAD, AND KILL THEM.

What ever happened to an old fashioned spanking?
