Apple is stupid for not coming up with this!

The Technology news for the week:

Here is a pretty cool concept for the new MacBook Pro. Its called the MacBook Touch. I wish it was real, I don't think we will ever see it as an actual product from Apple. Check it out below:

Since there has been barley any news that has been posted on the Thursday blog post, I have decided to add something. I was originally going to start this new part as a Saturday post, but didn't want to throw a wrench into the mix. So starting from here on out I will be adding a link to one of my favorite YouTube channels on every Thursday/Technology post. It will kind of serve as the YouTuber of the Week kind of thing. So the first YouTube Channel I will choose is:

GradLifeGaming

Its a hilarious gaming channel started by the creators of Gradlife. Go ahead and check them out and tell me what you think.

Don Draper for President!!!

The Television news for the week:

Netflix is in talks with ABC to purchase The River. The River to me is a good show and I don't understand why the Paranormal Activity franchise is good, but not The River. I like that Netflix is trying to acquire shows that may otherwise not be released. With Netflix already bring Arrested Development back and taking over Terra Nova, this a good move for them. I hope the deal goes through.

The cost of Don Draper in today's society. This little info graphic about the famous Mad Men character and how much it would cost in today's world to still be the Don Draper from 1962. Check it out below:

Will have a lot of DC character guest stars just like the show had.
Comes out as a digital comic in April and in print in June
Here are the covers of the first 2 issues:
Issue #1:
Issue #2

A new trailer for Season 2 of Game of Thrones has been released. Check it out below:

He says that his team is working with the original creators of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles story. They are expanding the back story and help make it more complex. I honestly still dont like where this movie is going. Until something happens and they follow the original story, I will not be seeing this movie. Also the working title for the movie is Ninja Turtles.
The first set picture from Les Misérables has been released. It shows us what Hugh Jackman will look like as Jean Valjean as he is released from or going into prison. Check it out below:

Rob Thomas: Songwriter of the Rich and Famous

On Fridays I will be going to my iTunes and turning on shuffle and who ever is the artist of the song that plays will be the focus for this blog.

This weeks post is going to be about: Rob Thomas.

Rob Thomas is a very talented singer/songwriter. The first time I heard him sing was with Carlos Santana on the song Smooth. It took me a few years to actually buy his albums, Something to be and Cradlesong. Right after I got into his albums I started to get into Matchbox Twenty, which is where he was lead songwriter and singer. Rob has actually helped write songs for Tom Petty, Mick Jagger, and Daughtry. He was born in Ramstein Air Base in West Germany even though he considers himself being from Orlando, Florida. He was born on February 14, 1972 (I seriously can't believe he is 40).

His music is soft sounding with a good beat, which I always love to listen to. My favorite song that he did outside of Matchbox Twenty would have to be Fire On The Mountain, because its loud when it needs it and it has a good message in the song. My other favorite by him would have to be Wonderful, which is loud and makes you want to move. I heard not to long ago that Matchbox Twenty was back together and working on another album that will be released this year. I really can't wait for it to be released so I can put it on repeat for a while. A few years back Carlos Santana got a some singers and musicians together to make a album containing The Greatest Guitar Classics of All Time. Here his version of Sunshine Of Your Love featuring Rob Thomas:

(I am having a problem with the video, so you might have to watch it on Youtube.)

And that is how my iTunes found him while it was on Shuffle!

No Xbox 720 this year!

The Video Game news of the week:

Skyrim Kill Cams:

This came with the 1.5 update through Steam. Soon it will arrive on all platforms.
Microsoft has confirmed that they will not be launching a new Xbox at E3 2012. My guess is that they are still working out more bugs and are really trying to get everything right. I know they don't want a repeat of the Xbox 360 failure.
There has been a mod released for Battlefield 3 and it takes you back to the past. It changes the audio of the game to mane it sound like a old NES game. I think this pretty cool, it makes dying in the game fun. Check it out below:
The trailer for TellTale's game The Walking Dead has been released. It was released with IGN's Up At Noon web show. Check it out below:

The actual trailer doesn't start until around 8:50, but the whole episode is pretty good.
Just in case you didn't look cool enough wearing your large head set while playing you Xbox, Microsoft has filed a patent for gaming glasses and a gaming helmet. They will be used as image displays so that you can multitask while gaming. They might also be used for virtual reality. Check them out below:

What a crazy random happenstance!

The Television news for the week:

A TV show for the movie Braveheart is in the works. It is planned to be a prequel to the blockbuster which stared crazy old Mel Gibson. The TV series will be about William Wallace before he was king focusing on his back story and the years he spent fighting to unify Scotland. So far there is no word if Mel Gibson is a part of it or what network it will be on.
There has been some amazing news coming from The Walking Dead this week. The famed character, Michonne, from the comic books has made a revel in Sunday nights Season 2 finale. Danai Gurira is set to play her in Season 3. Michonne is defined as a meth-addict, sword swinging lawyer who brings her zombified boyfriend and best friend with her. Its has also been confirmed that Merle, played by Michael Rooker, will be back in Season 3. No word yet if he will be in a hallucination or if he will be in the prison waiting for the group. We already know that David Morrissey is playing the Governor in Season 3. They will start filming for Season 3 in May and Season 3 will premiere this fall on AMC.
Simon Pegg might be joining TNT's L.A. Noir as a regular guest star. There is no word yet on what his role will be since he is still in talks with TNT and Frank Darabont. Seems like a cool role for him since he will also be working on Star Trek 2 and MI:5. This will be his return to TV since he did Spaced back in 2001. Speaking of that, Spaced is on Netflix Instant streaming. If you like British comedy, then you will like Spaced.
Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog 2 is going to start filming this summer. Joss Whedon has confirmed that they are planning to film the long awaited sequel to Dr. Horrible’s Sing-Along Blog. Joss Whedon has said that he has a number of songs written and has the outline ready. There is no word yet on who will be back to reprise their roles.

Teenage Alien Ninja Turtles?!

As always on the Monday post, The Weekend Box Office Results:

21 Jump Street
Dr. Seuss' The Lorax
John Carter
Project X
A Thousand Words

Now for the movie news of the week:

Robert Rodriguez is planning to film both Sin City 2 and the the sequel to Machete called Machete Kills this summer. He says he will be working on Machete Kills first then moving to Sin City 2. I don't know if this is a smart move for him. Filming 2 films in one year back to back could make one or both turn out bad. Sin City 2 should be done first then start on Machete Kills next year. That's just my opinion.
Paranormal Activity 4 now has a writer. Zack Estrin who is already attached to ABC's The River as the writer and executive producer. I wonder what will be in store next for the franchise. Paranormal Activity 4 already has a release date for October 19th, 2012.
Jurassic Park will be re released in 3D on July 19, 2013. I wonder if they are going to make changes to this movie too.
Lionsgate and WWE Studios have announced that they will be rebooting the Leprechaun franchise for a 2013 release. Those movies still freak me out.
An update on the live action reboot of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles franchise. First of all Michael Bay is set to produce the film. He also hints about the change that will be made in the Turtle's origin story. In the reboot the turtles will not be mutated by the Ooze, but will be aliens to the us. I cant believe that they came up with this idea as an actual reboot of the movies. Its like changing Superman's origin so that he was born on earth and mutated and become Superman. There is no way that this idea could ever work for me. If anybody has seen the live action movie for the series back in 1990, it was a good movie and is still very good in the sense of the franchise. It has a release date for December 25th, 2013, but as of right now I do not plan on seeing it.

R.E.M.: College Rock for high school students!

On Fridays I will be going to my iTunes and turning on shuffle and who ever is the artist of the song that plays will be the focus for the blog.

This weeks post is going to be about: R.E.M.
I am not a real big fan of R.E.M., but I do like a couple songs by them. I only have 4 songs on 2 albums that they did and it is mostly their old stuff. Since I am not a huge fan, I just learned that they are no longer together. Since I now have over 4,000 songs on my iTunes, I find it weird that they actually showed up first on shuffle. They started out in Athens, Georgia back in 1980 (which was before I was born.)

I like their style of music on some rare occasions, but occasionally I do skip their songs. I try not to skip songs, but I used to listen to them so much that they became annoying. It has now become hard to judge their music since I only have 4 songs by them and haven't been a major fan in a couple years. I think my favorite song by the would either have to be It's the end of the world as we know it (and I Feel Fine) or Revolution.

And that is how my iTunes found them while it was on Shuffle!

Halo 4 will not have a beta?!

The Gaming news for the week:

George Washington gets a makeover and a Pepper gun in BioShock Infinite. Don't believe me, check out the video below:
Assassins Creed 3 is the perfect place for new players of the series to start. Developers say that if you haven't played the previous 4 games you are going to miss anything since the game is about a new assassin. I am happy to hear that since I don't know if I will be able to catch up on the series before the new one is released this October.
Madden NFL 13 is starting their cover athlete vote. It is going to be the largest one yet. They are letting players vote for a Offensive and a Defensive players from each team. That adds up to 64 people to vote on. Below is the plays of each team that can be voted on:

Who do you think will win the Honor to be on the cover of the game and take on the famed Madden curse?
For those of you who are waiting for a beta for Halo 4, you better stop waiting. Halo Franchise Development Director Frank O’Connor says that they are not wasting anytime working on a beta. They want the game to be the best it possibly can be so they are spending the time it would take them to make a beta and just using that time to make the game better. He also says that you can make your own custom armor, The Covenant will return(but they are the least of your problems), and they have not decided on a specific release date yet.
Rovio Mobile is getting smart with their advertisement of Angry Birds Space. Check out their latest NASA announcement below:

They are also talking about releasing the game on the recently popular PlayStation Vita.
If you have wanted to try Star Wars: The Old Republic without paying for it, you are in luck. BioWare is going to be having a free trail weekend this weekend. The Weekend Pass Free Trial starts this Thursday, March 15 at 12:01 AM CT and runs until Monday, March 19 at 2:00 AM CT.

The F'n Osbournes are back BABY!

The Television news for the week:

After a 7 year absence from TV the Osbourne's will be making a return to Prime-time television. The famous family will be lending their voices for the stop-motion animations of their selves. The series will be called The F’n Osbourne's (The F stands for family). This show will not be suitable for kids. So far there is no word on when this show will be released and where it will air.
A producer for the fan favorite TV show is confident about another season of Community. Russ Kransoff is feeling pretty confident about the shows 4th season. The show is a huge fan favorite and even the people at NBC love the show. The show comes back to start to finish its 3rd season this Thursday during its normal 8PM time slot. Russ Kransoff urges fans to not stop spreading the word. I am a huge fan of Community and I do not want to see it go. If you are a fan, spread the word and maybe we can keep the show going together.
Season 2 of The Walking Dead is coming to a close this Sunday night a 9PM. The show has seen 2 deaths of main characters, one sorrowful and one everyone has been waiting for. I don't want to get into to much detail about last Sunday nights episode, but one major question about the series might be answered soon. If you remember at the end of the first season where Dr. Jenner whispered something in Rick's ear , the viewers don't know what was said. There have been many rumors on what was said, but only the cast and crew know what was said. It was one of the biggest secrets of the series. We had some insights on what Dr. Jenner might have said, but we are not sure for certain. I am hoping the secret is revealed in the season finale, but who knows if they want to reveal this secret yet. AMC is really good about this and have let nothing slip. I don't know about you, but I will be watching the season finale!

MOVIE OVERLOAD!!!

As always, the Weekend Box Office results:

Dr. Seuss' The Lorax
John Carter
Project X
Silent House
Act of Valor

The Movie news for this week:

The script for Bill and Ted 3 has been completed. It is said to be Excellent. Alex Winter and Keanu Reeves are back for the movie. Now the production has to wait to be green lighted.
The RobotCop reboot will be distributed by Sony, will be directed by José Padilha, and Joel Kinnaman will play Officer Alex J. Murphy/RoboCop. Depending on what way they will be going with this reboot, it might end up being a good movie.
Josh Trank, Chronicle, is in talks with Sony about a Venom spin-off movie from the Spider-Man movies. My question is how this will effect The Amazing Spider-Man movie. Will it be the venom from Spider-Man 3 or will it be a part of The Amazing Spider-Man reboot? Also with Sony having Josh Trank rumored for the Fantastic 4 reboot, which project would they do first. So, until anything is set in stone I hope everything turns out right.
Epic Space map from Prometheus:

The Muppets DVD/Bluray release trailer is a spoof of the Hunger Games. Check it out below:
Etan Cohen, Men in Black 3, will make his directorial debut by working on Paramount’s Boy Scouts vs. Zombies. I have heard a few things about this movie and it seems like it could be a good movie. It sounds weird, but it is a horror comedy with Zombies and Boy Scouts.
The first image from Disney's Lone Ranger movie has been released. Yet another weird costume for Johnny Depp to wear. Check out the image below:
Max Landis, screen writer of Chronicle, is working on the sequel. No word yet if Josh Trank will be back to direct the sequel.
Joss Whedon is already talking about how he would approach Avengers 2. He would like to dive into the characters more and tell more of a story then Wow you with the bigger is better approach. If The Avengers is what it is hyped up to being, I wouldn't mind a sequel with Joss Whedon's name on it. The Avengers will be the longest movie Marvel and Joss Whedon has ever done. Originally the movie was over 3 hours long. After Joss Whedon cut 45 minutes it is now a healthy 2 hours and 15 minutes. Joss Whedon and Marvel are both happy with that.
Confirmed by Viacom: Mission Impossible 5 is on its way. No word yet on who will be back.
Arnold Schwarzenegger now has an Anthem. Check it out below:

This was tweeted to me and I thought I should post it. It was made by the same guy that did The Stallone song.
Stallone still wants to do a fifth installment to the Rambo franchise. He is talking about John Rambo fighting Mexican cartels. He also says that it will be like a rehash of the First Blood story. I think the franchise needs to be left as it is.
Rumor: Tron 3 is in development. I dont know if I am suppose to like this or not.
A new featurette for The Hunger Games has been released. Check it out below:

Foo Fighters: Music to get you Hyped!

If you guys haven't noticed Tuesday's blog was my 75th blog. That means I am on the road to 100 blogs, which is a Big thing. Thats why I am planning for a Big giveaway on the day I post my 100th Blog. If I get 100 people to Join this Site/Follow this blog before I post my 100th blog I will be giving away a prize to be given to a randomly selected person. The prize will be the winners choice of an item costing me no more then $100 to buy and ship. More details will be released as more people Join this Site/Follow this blog.

On Fridays I will be going to my iTunes and turning on shuffle and who ever is the artist of the song that plays will be the focus for the blog.

This weeks post is going to be about: Foo Fighters

I am a huge Foo Fighters fan. I have every single album they have released even their most recent one. I have never seen them live in concert, but a buddy of mine went to Lollapalooza last year and got to go back stage and meet them. I got to watch their concert live on Youtube while they were at Lollapalooza The band was founded by Dave Grohl, the drummer from Nirvana, after Kurt Cobain's suicide and Nirvana breaking up. It started out as a solo project until Dave Grohl started recruiting members from a band called Sunny Day Real Estate. And the rest is history.

I love their style of music. I listen to them to get hyped of for interviews or for when I have to do some public speaking. Some people say that i am too young to like their music, but there are a lot bands older then them that I like. I am also a fan of Nirvana so why wouldn't I like Foo Fighters. I was born in 1992 and they released their first album in 1994. The hardest thing for me is trying to decide what my favorite song from them is. I think is safe to say that I like them all. I actually decided to listen to their new album while I wrote this blog so I could get all my thoughts down about their music.

And that is how my iTunes found them while it was on Shuffle!

My dislikes of the iPad 3!

The Technology news for the week:

The Samsung Galaxy S III is being released this April and will have some amazing features.
If I wanted a phone not made by Apple, this is the one I would get. These features included:

4.8 inch, Full HD 1080p screen
A powerful 1.5 GHz quad core processor
2 megapixel front facing camera and a 8 megapixel rear facing camera
4G LTE

The iOS App Store has just passed 25 Billion downloads, which makes it the biggest place to buy apps worldwide. Talk about, Duh Winning!

Apple TV 3rd Generation has been announced. With it comes a new User Interface and support of full 1080p. Will be released on March 16th.

The iPad 3 was announced yesterday, here is everything you need to know about it:

There are different models of the iPad 3. There is WiFi and WiFi+3G+4G.
Prices start at $499 for 16GB with only WiFi and goes up to $829 for 64 GB with WiFi+3G+4G.
Still thin at 9.4mm thick and weights a total of 1.5 pounds.
Regular battery life is set at 10 hours and 4G battery life is set at 9 hours.
The screen is 9.7 inches in size, has a resolution of 2048×1536, and has 264 pixels per inch.
Has an A5X, which is a Dual-Core CPU and a Quad-Core GPU. The processor offers 4 times the amount of the graphical performance that the iPad 2 offers. It also has 1GB of RAM, which is 2 times the amount that the iPad 2 had.
The rear facing camera is a 5 Megapixel camera that shoots 1080p video. the front facing camera is the same one that was in the iPad 2.
The iPad 3 will only have Siri dictation, instead of the full assistant that the iPhone 4S has.
You can preorder the iPad 3 now here or you can wait until March 16th and get it at the Apple Store nearest you.

My dislikes about the iPad 3:

I wish the price would be a little cheaper, but the price doesn't bother me to much.
I wish they would have upgraded the front facing camera instead of the rear facing camera. Since more people use the front one instead of using the rear one, why not upgrade that one. How many people have you seen taking pictures with there read facing camera on their iPad? I have only seen one!
I wish all of Siri was on the iPad 3. Not just the dictation. It makes no sense to release Siri on the iPhone 4S and not release it on the iPad 3.

The Television news for the day:

A new Game of Thrones Season 2 trailer has been released. Check it out below:
Leonard Nimoy will be making an appearance in an episode of The Big Bang Theory. The Sci-Fi Legend will be appearing in the episode that airs on March 29th where he is in one of Sheldon's dreams. But you will not see his face, he will just be a voice over for Sheldon's dream. LeVar Burton, Brent Spiner, and George Takei have all made cameos in episodes of the show. Will Wheaton is even a reoccurring cast member who happens to be Sheldon's mortal enemy.

!!!The Walking Dead Season 2 Finale Spoiler Alert!!!

Major Spoilers for The Walking Dead Season 2 have been released. After the death of Dale in the most recent episode, many have been waiting for another notable character to bit the bullet. AMC has announced that the character Shane, played by Jon Bernthal, will be killed during the season finale on March 18th. To some this comes as a surprise, but me I knew it was coming. Jon Bernthal has been in talks with Frank Darabont to be apart of his TNT's pilot for a period drama called L.A. Noir. Jon Bernthal has officially signed on for the Pilot which means the character of Shane will not be back next season.

If you were a fan of the comic books like I am you would know that Shane doesn't make it past issue 6, where Carl offs him for trying to kill his dad. The whole story has been changed from the comic books since Shane has lasted longer then he should have. We still dont know how he is going to die in the Season 2 Finale. My hopes are that Daryl or Carl kill him. My guess is that it will be Carl that shoots him in the end.

Tyler Perry's Good Deeds

The Movie news for this week:

Ryan Reynolds states that the Deadpool movie is in no way connected to X-Men Origins: Wolverine. I think that is the only way to make the movie turn out well. I am a huge Wolverine, the X-Men Origins: Wolverine movie butchered the character in my opinion. The Deadpool movie will now have a chance to grow in it own story without a crossover.

Mike Tyson has confirmed that he will be in Hangover 3. I hope that the movie turns out better then the second otherwise this franchise will have to some to an end.

The 21 Jump Street movie is already getting a sequel. The movie is not even out in theaters yet, but I am guessing that they have high hopes for the movie. Hopefully this doesn't end up like Green Lantern. 21 Jump Street is to me released into theater on March 16th of this year.

A sequel for The Muppets is in the works. Disney is in talks with the Director and one of the writers to produce a sequel to The Muppets. As of right now Jason Segel is not listed to return. This is sad news to me, I thought that Jason Segel did a great job co-writing and starring in the film.

Peter Craig, the screenwriter of The Town, has officially been recruited to write the sequel for Paramount's Top Gun. From what I hear Tom Cruise will return with a new generation of Hot Shot Pilots.

A 10 Minute clip for John Carter has been released online by Disney and shows us a little tease of what the movie has in-store for its audience. Check it out below:
