Karate Kid Remake for 2010


The Karate Kid is coming back with a remake starring Jaden Smith and Jackie Chan and being produced by Will Smith.

The storyline is staying the same. A new kid in town (Smith) is bullied by his classmates and learns martial arts (in this case kung fu, not karate... I wonder if they will change the title to Kung Fu Kid?) from the maintenance man (Chan) so he can defend himself against the students of Li Quan Ha’s Fighting Dragon school.

Question is and I know you're wondering too, will it have the wax on and wax off?! lol…. This might ruin my past of the old school Karate Kid (Daniel son). Come on don’t act as if you didn't watch it!

Below are the first pictures of the production, due to be released next year in June. P.S Will Smith is looking kinda old, sorry Will you’re my boy, well kinda as I still have not forgiven you for Hancock (first 45mins was good then it went sour) and Seven Pounds of….

Disney's First Black Princess

Disney's latest film sounds like the usual Disney production with it's fairytale story of magic and princesses but look a bit further into it and it is a historic release. There have been 8 previous Disney princesses but this film brings us their first ever black princess.



Princess Tiana is voiced by singer and actress Anika Nonie Rose who says "It's a really wonderful thing for children to be able to look at this princess and say, 'it looks just like my friend - she's a princess too,'". "It's a long time coming but I'm glad it's here."

I'd have to agree with her, but more than that, for all those little girls (and some bigger ones who I know still love the Disney films!) to have a character that they can watch and feel a connection with, knowing that not all princesses are blonde and blue eyed.

Bonnie Greer alluded to the fact that although it's a bold move by Disney, they are never going to miss a trick when it comes to making more money. "Since Disney is always looking at the bottom line, they figured it's about time,".

With that being said, credit where it is due, although a lot of people will probably think 'what's the fuss?', the film has been in production since before Obama came into power and it's good to know moves like this are happening so that in future nobody will bat an eye.

Apparently the process of finishing the film was a tough process as the company gathered prominent black organisations and individuals to view the film and give their views on whether any of it could come across as offensive. Whichever bright spark did that may want to come and advise the UK government too rather than have them dictate to us what is PC or not on racial issues, seemingly without asking the people it would effect in the first place.

Anyway, in summary, well done Disney and I shall ask my niece whether the film was any good!

Meet My Friend Pain


Quinton “Rampage” Jackson of UFC fighting fame has been tipped to play Mr T aka BA Baracus in the long awaited A-Team film.

Like Mr.T he is a devoted christian and has appeared in several acting roles, but now may have landed the jackpot.

At 6’1” and a former UFC light-heavyweight champion, can u say "I pity the fool"?!

Liam Neeson (Hannibal) and Nip/Tuck star Bradley Cooper (Face) have already been confirmed for the movie.

Rumors were running around that 50 Cent and the Game were in the running to play BA…thank the lord this didn't happen!

Don't Call It a Comeback / 2 Sequel Or Not 2 Sequel


Newsflash! Hollywood’s running short on idea’s for films so what do they do?…oh lets re-make some films…here’s a roundup of some that are in the works.

Battle Royale – Big Asian movie is getting a Western remake.

The Evil Dead – One of the most loved horror films is getting a facelift.

Knight Rider – Please try to forget the recent TV crap. The original creator of Knight Rider – Glen A Larson – is working on the screenplay.

Conan The Barbarian – They’re still working on this one. I mean I heard about this years ago and the person then tipped to play him was Triple H (yes the guy with no neck from WWE).

The Thing – One of my most loved horror films. Beg they don’t ruin this (why Hollywood, why must u even touch).

Death Wish - Sylvester Stallone is set to step into the role made famous by late great Charles Bronson in a remake of Michael Winner’s violent original. Stallone is set to write, produce and star, and production is planned to start at some point this year.

Hellraiser – That thing with the pointed things on his head, would be nice to see a remake of this.

Clash of the Titans – with all the special effects nowadays this should be big.

Akira – Love the manga but ummm on the live action idea. Adaptation is believed to be being handled in two parts, and Leonardo DiCaprio has been linked with the project. It’s still at the scripting stage.

The Birds - Should be re-named the pigeons, cha.

A Nightmare On Elm Street - His been given a facelift and productions starts very soon….i’ll be wearing my black and red stripes jumper for this one.

Howard Stern’s Porkys - The ones who have never heard about this film before think American Pie back in the days.

Red Sonja - Well if we gonna do Conan The Destroyer we might as well make this. (Hollywood why?)

SEQUELS
The Brazilian Job: Nope not a film about waxing, the follow up to The Italian Job is still on the cards, and it’s got a 2009 release date marked. Jason Statham, Mos Def, Mark Wahlberg and Charlize Theron are attached, as is director F Gary Gray.

I, Robot 2: No news on weather Will Smith will star it this. Ummmm can u say straight to DVD if he’s not!

I Am Legend 2: The first one was a let down so it would be interesting to see where they will take this, or to see if Will Smith will star in this one.
Beverly Hills Cop 4: The thought is, if Die Hard can do this why can’t this…errr BHC 3 was crap that’s why.

National Treasure 3: umm err why? But then again I guess it will pay the light bills (Nicolas Cage has let me down of late)

Cars 2: Why would you, its was weak.

Toy Story 3: Oh hell yes, please do. After all the delaying the go ahead has the green light.

Jeepers Creepers 3: If this is true then hurry up to explain the damn thing man cha.

Silent Hill 2: Please hell no the first one was a pile of dog turd on the street, waste of time and money plus my effort to even mention this.

The Descent 2: I liked the first for don’t ruin it or I’ll blog the hell out of you!

Ghost Rider 2: A surprise hit last year, Marvel is developing a follow-up to the Nic Cage comic book flick, and tentatively has 2009 marked for release. No director is thus far attached.

The Untouchables: Capone Rising: Should be one to watch.

The People Under The Stairs 2: You what? After how long? No sign of any Wes Craven involvement, straight to DVD yeah.

Ace Ventura 3: No Jim Carrey equals no point to even do the film.

War of the Worlds 2: The Next Wave: No big stars and will go straight to DVD in the basement bucket.

Jurassic Park 4: How long have they been on about this? Just do it and get it over and done with. If so let me have hands on the project and start killing the dinosaurs.

Mr Honest’s Pic n Mix World... (as I don’t like popcorn)

Deadpool
Yes people after the box office success of the Wolverine movie, there is going to be a spin off Deadpool film. Yippee I hear you say as Ryan Reynolds part in the film had fans wanting more. Yes this is true and rumours are true about a Wolverine sequel too with more of Gambit, who for me was a disappointment, but hey tell it how it is I say. No release dates and when filming will begin hasn’t been schedule as yet so hold tight.


I Have a Dream
Dreamworks are working on doing a Martin Luther King Jr biopic, with none other than Steven Spielberg being one of the producers. The reason why there has not been any film about such a iconic man so far is mainly because Dr Martin Luther King Jr, who was assassinated in 1968 in Memphis at the age of 39, copyrighted his speeches, books and famous works during his lifetime. The Dreamworks project marks the first film to be authorized by King's estate and gives the producers the right to utilize King's intellectual property -- including his famous "I Have a Dream" speech delivered during the 1963 March on Washington -- to create the definitive portrait of his life. Question is who will play him? Cast your votes.


Inglorious Bastards
This is a new film from the director who bought you Pulp Friction, Dust til Dawn, Kill Bill and etc. Yes Quentin Tarantino’s upcoming WWII film features Brad Pitt and Samuel Jackson. The film is set in the era of World War II, with a group of Jewish-American soldiers known as "The Bastards", chosen to spread fear throughout the Third Reich by scalping and brutally killing Nazis. (You got to love Quentin Tarantino for this).


Who you gonna call? (no this is not 118)
The news is that Ghostbusters 3 is most likely to begin shooting in the winter time. All the original casts are set to return. I’ve heard many rumors about this, such as the old cast will be passing their knowledge to a younger cast… who knows?! (watch this space).

Bruno - Film Review


Now this film has had a lot of hype and I have to give credit to the people marketing this film because you can't go anywhere and not see a poster or trailer of this film..

Okay now Sacha brought us Borat. I was one of them people who was like errrr nah I'm not watching that. So after the hype I got it for cheap (play.com, I should have shares in this company) anyway to much of my surpise I loved it and could not stop laughing.

So Sacha comes up with another character, a gay model is looking to become famous after he is shut out of his homeland. I'm used to being shocked but this film jumped over the border line so many times I lost count. From gay sex and a penis gag that will make the faint hearted leave the cinemas, this film is still packed a lot of laughter. Big note if u don’t wish to see a penis on a large cinema screen then this is not for you. Please note I had no idea about this so I was shocked as everybody else was. (lol)

Do I think its better then Borat, nah

Do I say go and watch it (only if you want to be shocked a little)

I’ll give this a 4/10.

Gran Torino - Film Review

When I first heard about this film I was like what is this old man going to do cha dam silly idea. Mr Honest thought wrong as this old man had issues and was grumpy as hell which was funny. Clint Eastwood still has the one liners and the look that tells you don’t want to mess with me (bad man forward, bad man pull up lol sorry had to put it in somewhere). A lot of the time this film had me in stitches and I can not recall a dull moment.

Plot
The death of his wife starts the film of and then you get to meet Walt Kowalski (Clint Eastwood) is a disgruntled war vet who is very tough minded and lack of people skills (wishing I was like him when I get older). The story is mainly about his relationship with his new neighbors who come from a different country (boy they can pack out their house). Well Walt has his dog for his best friend but his prize possession is his 1972 Gran Torino (even I wanted it). The teenager named Thao who lives next door (one of them quiet types) is under pressure from one of his cousins to steal Walt’s Gran Torino for initiation to the gang. The film takes a journey with Walt, Thao and his sister. He opens up and builds up a friendship with the family next door. Not going tell you much more as I see this as a must see.

Verdict
I really enjoyed it and thought it was a good film and it was well done. Loved the dialog between the characters, the storyline was nicely built up. This is no doubt a must see and I think it has earned the hype behind it…

I give it an 8/10 well above average….Clint Eastwood is the man….

Mr. Honest…..

The Hangover - Review ... Must see film!

The Hangover……Release date 11/Jun/09

Okay so here comes another road trip idea of a film (which enters my mind)…how many more can one brain take…

Okay so the idea is nothing new a stag do for Doug and his boys, 2 days before he gets married, they plan a night out in Las Vegas. When they wake up the next morning to which none of them have no ideas on the events that took place the night before. A Tiger in the bath room, the groom is missing and a banging hangover.

I sat down with an open mind (wishing this would entertain me) my wish came true, oh yes this had jokes and one liners that even I would copy and paste. Even Mike Tyson playing himself was fun. It is a pick up the clues film with rude jokes and the lads’ intake of having fun.

I’m sure if you like films such as the 40 year old virgin, Superbad, Role Model and I love you man. Then this is for you. The comedy is up there with these titles.

I give this 8/10 as this had me in some stitches….a must watch, a film that will make u bust your gut with laugher.

Mr Honest (some times just too dam honest) lol
