Conan no more?

I can honestly say that I am very angry right now. It is being reported that Conan O'brien, after being on the Tonight show for only about 3 months, is getting replaced by Jay Leno, who already said he was done with the tonight show before his own program failed miserably. I stand with Conan in agreeing that putting the "Tonight" show on at 12:05 just isn't the tonight show, unless they were changing it to the Tomorrow show, and that would just be stupid. I used to have some respect for Leno, although I was always more of a Conan guy, but this whole situation has really turned me off to him. Rumor has it though, that a man by the name of Jeff Zucker was trying to get Conan trapped in a three year deal, in which he would pretty much get screwed over, and lose his job as Tonight Show host. Regardless of what happens, this situation has made me see the usually supreme NBC in a whole new way; as a bunch of money hungry corporate bullies who don't care who is the best for the job as long as they get their paychecks.

Source Code Script Review

Yes, I know I just made a post, but I feel like I have to get this off my chest. The other day, I came across a script review of a film in pre-production called Source Code, written by Ben Ripley. What really intrigued me is who is directing it. The fantastic up and comer Duncan Jones, Whose film Moon is one of my favorites from last year. So after hearing that the script was great, I got my hands on it, and read through it over the course of a couple days. The film starts off on a train, with a man by the name of Colter waking up, not knowing where he is or why he is there. He feels nauseous, so he heads to the bathroom, when he notices the vent is open. Looking in he sees a bomb, with a cell phone attached to it. Before he can think, the phone rings, and the bomb explodes, killing Colter and everyone else aboard the train. Now keep in mind, this happens in the first 10 pages of the script. From there, Colter wakes up in a lab to find that he is nothing but a guinea pig in a science experiment, in which the U.S. Military is using him to find who placed the bomb on the train before they strike again. It was one of the most intense stories I've read in quite awhile. Couple that with Duncan Jones talented directorial style, and recently announced Jaky Gylenhall as the lead, and I think this will be one of my favorite films of 2010.

Taking the Plunge

So I have finally crossed this line. After years of talking crap about everything to do with blogs, I have created the very thing that I despised. Why, you ask? Because I believe the things that go through my head should be read by all mankind, for the betterment of the human race. There is no way around it. What I have to say is not only what mankind wants to hear, but what it NEEDS to hear. So stick around, because over the next few months, I will make this world a better place simply with the words that I write on this page. Goodbye for now, my friends, I love you all.
