From the looks of things right now, it's Kimbo vs. Seth Petruzelli, but I don't know why Kimbo wouldn't agree to it. I mean, if he faces Frank, he is going to get MURDERED. I could at least see him beating the Pretzel.

Spoiler: Click here to viewSolid movie for those of you who haven't seen it. With the two crippled people trying to live out in the real world on their own and all, it kind of makes me take a step back and appreciate what I have and all. Definitely one of my favorite indy films that I have seen, but then again, I am a huge fan of most of the independent films that I have seen. Hopefully some of you have seen it or will check it out, but it's definitely worth the time if you can get over the weird talking of Michael in it.

Spoiler: Click here to viewGotta say that I am sad to see my bow Hamill go down, but there was nothing he could do. Never really shot in for the take down and just grabs Franklin's ankle every time instead of going for the thigh area. Oh well, he will bounce back. This is probably best for him. The real story of the night is... FUCKING RASHAD EVANS. I really can't believe that I saw that happen, but you best believe me that when it did, me and about the other 100 people in Wild Wings were going ape shit. I mean, that knockout was absolutely devastating. He sent him down to the ground like a bag of rocks and I was waiting for Chuck to get up, but when I saw him start to fall down without his arms out or anything, I knew that he was done for good. Must I say though that I believe this puts Evans right at the top of the division. A decision win just wouldn't have been convincing enough for a lot of people, but a KO, not a TKO really proves just who he is. I am seeing a future date with Forrest Griffin unless he ends up facing Machida after he wins next month. Other than that, I wasn't really shocked with anything tonight. Oh, and did Nate Marquardt ever look like he was fucking ready. He just destroyed Martin Kampmann.

IDOL, do you watch the Pay-Per-Views at Wild Wings in Watertown? If so, I will be seeing you there tomorrow night for the break out party of Matt Fucking Hamill. But one thing I did want to talk about was Brock/Couture. When I look at this fight, I know people are thinking Werdum is next in line, but he beat Gabriel Gonzaga and Brandon Vera. Let's see... Gonzaga has gone nowhere since his miracle KO of Cro Cop, and he isn't really a top of the line Heavyweight. Let's be honest here. Then there is Brandon Vera who before losing to Werdum lost to only Tim Sylvia which isn't that bad, but a loss is a loss. In the end, I don't see Vera or Gonzaga as "true" challengers to the Heavyweight championship. Then there is Brock Lesnar who loss to the former UFC Heavyweight champion Frank Mir, but then proceeded to beat Heath Herring who had the current champion in a position to be defeated in his debut in the UFC. If anything, I would say that there should have been a "play in fight" with the winner facing Lesnar, because I believe that both Werdum and Lesnar are on equal footing. But I do think that the right person was chosen to fight Randy, and that is because if I can picture anyone beating Couture, it's Lesnar. Plus, like it has already been said, the money is right there for the taking.

Yeah, I was a big fan of Oblivion, but I don't think the story was anything special, and after beating the game, I was satisfied with the ending, but it wasn't a true ending. I was going to check out the achievements, but decided to pass on it in hopes of not ruining the game.

So, I don't know if I have been more pumped for a game since Grand Theft Auto IV. This game is going to be sick and I already know I am getting the collectors edition despite me wanting the Survival edition, but I can live without the clock. Figured I would try to get some discussion stirred back up since it will be a little less than two months since this games release.

Not sure if any of you have seen this movie, but it was on Cinemax on Demand, so I decided to check it out last night and it's a pretty good movie. Apparently, it won the Dramatic Directing prize at the 2007 Sundance Film Festival. Anyways, here is my review on the movie, along with the plot. Rocket Science Review and Plot Spoiler: Click here to viewPlot Hal Hefner is an ordinary and shy 15 year-old boy who's struggling to make it through the perils of high school. On top of his parents' recent divorce and an obsessive-compulsive, kleptomaniac older brother , Hal has a stuttering problem. In spite of this speech impediment, the high school debate team star, Ginny Ryerson, invites Hal to join the team. Stumbling his way to the championship, Hal falls in love, gains confidence and ultimately, realizes that love and life should not be rocket science. **SPOILER ALERT** Review This was a great movie and really shows just how hard high school can be for some. I really got attached to the character of Hal and enjoyed the hell out of this movie, especially when he ends up getting Ginny's old team mate in Ben Wekselbomb and tries to get into the state championship only to be kicked out of it. There was really nothing wrong with this movie in my mind, although I was kind of disappointed at the end with how they just drove off (Hal and his dad). I wanted to see something like involving Ben and Ginny or Ginny and Hal, or some interaction there instead of just seeing him all pissed off and then leaving with his dad. It kind of feels like there is an open door there which somewhat makes me happy, but I would have preferred to have known what happened at the state competition and if Ginny and the asian kid won it all or if something else happened. Anways, I give it. Rating: ***** Rating Reason: It was a solid movie and while the ending was a little bit flawed, it shows just what high school is and how tough love can be, all in a realistic setting and way.

Lately, I have been listening to Tech N9ne, Ne-Yo, Shwayze, Saving Abel, and some others. Definitely a fan of Tech, Shwayze and Ne-Yo, but I think Saving Abel is going to have some work to do in order to win me over as a fan. Their song "Addicted.." isn't really enough to have won me over yet.

Here is Billy Gunn from his time in the "Smoking Gunns". I was looking for it in the albums, but you didn't have one of him in this time era, so here it is for TheWho87 to add to his collection.

Been listening to some of Saving Abel "..Addicted" and Tupac's "Loyal to the Game" album.

Or speed walking for that matter. I mean seriously? Womens Gymnastics - Balance Beam (You knew it was coming) Spoiler: Click here to viewSHAWN FREAKING JOHNSON!!! I was so happy that she won but was pissed when earlier in the day my dad came into the same room as my grandfather and myself and told us that the "Shawn Johnson girl" won the Gold. Kind of took away from the moment, but in itself, I am so glad she won. She clearly had the best all around routine and pretty much nailed everything except for the landing. After watching her interview afterwards with Bob Costas, looks like she is coming back in 2012 hopefully. Go Shawn!

They have the finals in Vault and Floor on CKWS right now which I am watching from the States. Is that THE finals that will end up airing tonight on NBC?

Spoiler: Click here to viewHow is it funny? The guy just outran some of the fastest people in the world. I don't see Asafa Powell or Tyson Gay with the Silver medal around their necks. He is happy and proud that he won Silver for his county. That is nothing to be ashamed of. I sure as hell know it's an accomplishment just to be at the Olympics, but medaling is a whole different story. Insanely hard. You try to be one of the fastest men on earth to win that medal.

Men's 100m Spoiler: Click here to viewUsain Bolt is insane. I read the spoilers about him winning earlier and had to see him run that and boy was that incredible. Just to see him throw his arms out and beat the silver medalist by .20 seconds is a huge gap. That was just insane, and Usain Bolt has a new fan.

Shit, so I actually have a golf tournament tomorrow and Monday for New York state and I will be staying in a hotel which means I will be missing mah girl Shawn Johnson in action. Hopefully I can pull something out of my ass to see her in action.

Okay, so I just watched this walking, and I can't even believe this is an Olympic event. Not sure what the rules on spoilers are, but I will spoiler just in case. Spoiler: Click here to viewThat was lame as fuck, but I guess I will give them some credit, because walking for that distance does have to be tough. I was hoping for the dude who finished in second (the guy who won gold in 1996, ATLANTA!!!) to end up winning it, but I guess that Russian guy was just too good. Might I say that I fucking love the summer Olympics? I am actually contemplating going to the 2012 games in London as I will be 21 and on summer vacation from college. This shit is fucking awesome. Never really followed the Olympics, but being 17 now, I was kind of excited for it, and it hasn't disappointed yet. While some of these events may be cheesy as hell, its still something special to watch.

Some thoughts on last night's Women's All Around Spoiler: Click here to viewGod, I think I am in love with Shawn Johnson, and when she lost, I was pissed, but Nastia was clearly the better competitor. She was nailing everything, and even hit that perfect landing off of the Springboard Horse. Then she went on to have a great routine in the Beam and Uneven Bars and just played it great in the Dance Routine part. I thought Shawn seemed to be holding close, but it didn't really look that way with the scores as she was pretty far back until the Uneven Bars I believe is where she made most of it up. I am still glad that the United States went one two seeing as how Yiilin was in the running for most of it. I also have to say that I felt bad for that Chinese girl who fell on her landing in the Springboard Horse. Falling down in front of the world after representing your own country must really be hard and it looks like she never really recovered from it. Still pissed to see that Nastia is going to get the glory from the All Around and Shawn isn't going to win a gold medal this year. I am not sure if she has any more events, but getting Silver in the Team All Around if I am not mistaken and then losing again here to her fellow partner must really be harsh for her. Shawn still has some years ahead of her though, and I know that while some gymnasts don't normally come back, I think Johnson will be back for the London games. Not so sure about Nastia though. Anyways, I still had fun watching it, and the Women's All Around has become my favorite event overall.

I still believe that All The Small Things by Blink 182 is quite possibly one of the best songs ever recorded. They were one hell of a band.

Which is good for the EliteXC. I really think that Saturday night could be make or break for them. I mean people saw what happened last time with Kimbo almost losing to Thompson and it really didn't look too damn good for them considering they were using him as their drawing tool. Also, what the fuck at the Heavyweight title fight being on Showtime and not on CBS? I know they need their ratings too, but hot damn, that is horrible for people who actually wanted to watch Silva. Anyways, it is going to be extremely interesting to see how EliteXC does this Saturday and see if they can actually bring anyone back from the Kimbo fight. Less flash, more fucking action! Oh, and how about Matt Hamill getting a fight against Rich Franklin? I freaking love it! Hamill is my favorite fighter overall and I can't wait to see him take on a former Middleweight champion albeit at a higher weight for Franklin. It is going to be a tough fight for Matt, but I really think if he can take him down to the ground, it could be Hamills game to win.

I just got back from the show in Darien Lake. Glad I left when I did, because it started to hale as we left. In order, here was my favorite to least favorite acts. 1. 3OH!3 2. Forever the Sickest Kids 3. Schwayze 4. Mayday Parade 5. Gym Class Heroes (only caught "Girlfriend") 6. Story of the Year (didn't really catch it) 7. The Audition 8. Reliant K 9. St. Alvia Cartel Getting body surfed during the FTSK was amazingly awesome, and I just had a great day all around. If there is one group I really suggest you all check out, it's 3OH!3. I loved them and really think they are going to be the next big thing off of the Warped Tour.

Thoughts of Affliction: Banned Spoiler: Click here to viewWent to Wild Wings to watch it and while I liked what I did see, if they ditch the shitty bands playing there, I would be happy. To be honest though, it just didn't feel like it normally does watching Affliction at Wild Wings as there was literally nobody there compared to the UFC events. I feel like Affliction is a watch at home company where as the UFC is more of a everyone wants to watch it. What I did see was a dominant Fedor Emelianenko kick some ass. I went to call a friend with a result and one of the guys at Wild Wings looked at me and goes "Wow, thats an ass kicking." and I agree. Go in, get the job done, flurry of punches, hooks, rear naked choke, done. So, the question is... Arlovski vs. Fedor OR Barnett vs. Fedor?

Regarding Rachel, and what I think is her future and a possible future plot that I thought of. Spoiler: Click here to viewI believe that she didn't really get killed and instead, Joker was just fucking around with Batman and Two Face much like both of them did with Commissioner Gordon who they made the Joker think was dead. Somehow, I am hoping that we end up finding out that Rachael was actually in a third environment the entire time and Joker knew that Batman was going for Dent, so he rigged all three of the places (Dent's place, the warehouse, and Rachael's actual location) with explosives, but was only going to detonate both Dent's place and the throw off for Rachael. Maybe it would be cool if in the next one, Rachael goes all psychotic on Batman for killing Harvey, because it was him that she actually loved, so instead of Joker coming back, we could have a link to the Joker in the form of Rachael.

I am in no way the biggest Batman fan here, but even I had to grab a ticket to the midnight showing last night. Albeit, I went by myself and felt like a twit watching it alone, but I didn't even give a shit after watching that. Spoiler: Click here to viewI must say that Heath Ledger's performance was absolutely stunning and to think that we won't see him playing the Joker again makes me a sad panda. The part with the fat Batman was amazing as well too. I loved that to hell as well as Rachel getting killed too.
