Looper does whatever a Looper can

I'm back baby, I'm back!

It was tough but I survived 10 days of beach, family and sunshine in Carmel CA. I didn't see any reality TV stars but I did see a guy in a Ferrari 250GT and a dog in a funny sweater.

Here's a trailer for new Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Bruce Willis movie Looper. In in JGL plays a hit man hired to kill himself. I'm a sucker for a good time travel movie and I might have a bit of a man crush on Levitt, so I'm really looking forward to this one.

Wu-Tang movie ain't nothing to F with

Here's the trailer for The Man with the Iron Fists, The RZA's directorial debut. If you want to save yourself the two minutes it will take to watch this, just imagine what a trailer to a movie staring RZA, Russell Crowe and Lucy Liu, directed by RZA, written by Eli Roth and RZA and produced by Quentin Tarantino would look like and this is EXACTLY that.

BTW, what happened to Russell Crowe? Did he get Gout or Diabeties or something? Did Joaquin Phoenix poison him in real life?

The Annie Gasp

Here's a supercut of all the times Annie (Alison Brie) has gasped on Community. 6 seasons and a movie!

New Judge Dredd trailer is the law

Did you know there was a new Judge Dredd movie coming out? Well there is, and it's %100 Rob Schneider free. I like the looks of it so far, it's got a nice old school action vibe to it.

As long as Hollywood is remaking old Schwazenegger and Stalone movie is there anyway we can get a new Demolition Man movie? I need to know how the 3 shells work!

... The Blurst of Times: The Choice

Having my family in town last week provided me with ample opportunities to watch absolute garbage TV shows on networks I've heard of but have never actually watched before (I'm looking at you CBS and CMT). With "..the Blurst of Times" I'll tell you all about whatever horrible abortion of a TV show I watched the night before (or in this case last week).

The Choice might be the single most rip-offiest TV show I've ever seen and it's probably the worst dating show on TV since Studs (and I loved Studs!). The format is simple, it's exactly like the Voice except instead of competing for a record contract contestants are competing for a date with celebrities people who have been on TV before, like the host of Loveline. No not Adam Corolla, the new guy that isn't Adam Corolla.

Casting for The Choice must have been done at a local Hollywood bar. That's the only reason I can think of for the mix of d-list celebrity douchebags (and yes the Jonas Brothers are now d-list) and Tampa 10s fighting for their affections.

On a scale of 1 to The Fifth Wheel hosted by Aisha Tyler, The Choice scores an Elimidate. It's not without it's charms but you definitely feel dumber for having watched it.

The Dark Knight Rises trailer part 3

Here's the 3rd and I'm assuming last full length trailer for The Dark Knight Rises. The first half of the trailer has a lot of stuff we've already seen in the previous trailers and TV spots. However, the second half seems chocked full of new stuff and it looks awesome. I still can't wrap my head around Joseph Gordon-Levitt playing an ordinary cop in this. Look at him sitting on that bench, he looks just like Dick Grayson, I want Nightwing!

. The good news here is that we're only a month away from being able to see this in theaters. The really really bad news is that also means we're only a month away from hearing reboot rumors from DC and Warner Bros.

Return of the Revenge of the Links

Kate Upton in a Patriotic Bikini for GQ. Honestly Buzz feed is sort of burying the lead here, she's also in a wet t-shirt for GQ. That's right Google image search, it's Kate Upton in a Wet T-Shirt. Did I mention the wet T-shirt? (Yes, my wife is away on vacation. Why do you ask?)

Microsoft's Surface Tablet got my attention. This is not bad work from the new Big Blue. Tablets are great and everyone has a lot of fun with them but the idea of building one to be a real tool in and out of the office seems like an instant winner. I'm excited to try out this floppy keyboard thing.

The 10 best original games of E3. If you haven't already, you need to check out the trailers for Deadlight and Watch Dogs. One of the interesting conspiracy theories over E3 was that many of the games Demo'd we're actually next generation console games. I believe it. We knew this console cycle is winding down. Odds are we'll be all x-boxing 720 style in just a year or two, so why wouldn't publishers start previewing some of the new hotness for 2013 and beyond?

The Arbitrary Friday List: Ranking Michelle Tanner's Friends. Good news first. I'm almost caught up enough at work to start blogging again during the day. The bad news is I'm going on vacation soon so things are going to slow back down again. Also Derek was the worst!
