The real Batman & Robin are returning in an animated movie.  Before you decide to put me in the Bat Cave of course I’m writing about the return of Adam West as Batman & Burt Ward as Robin who starred in the compelling and hilarious T.V series.  “Holy Smokes Batman could this really occur? Yes old chum I believe it is?”  After seeing Batman betrayed in dark images it’s good to bring back some light to this series with some silliness/laughter from the “good old T.V days”.  POW! BANG! Old shows don’t just get played in rerun’s but return as animated movies.

There is no more grueling sport to man and his/her four legged friend then dog sledding yet do to poor marketing this sport isn’t even covered on ESPN 2 or 3.  Here’s a sport where woman have broken the top ceiling and dogs that were supposed to be put to sleep lead winning teams yet the back stories of such individuals are hardly mentioned on the national news. It is true unlike other sports the time it takes to watch the big match (the Iditarod) 10 days is a bit too much for even the biggest couch potato yet evening recaps could help keep us watching.  The drama that is involved in developing man and furry animal for such races is sure to keep interest high in such races even during rest stops.  Many including me truly will see  this sport as cruel to dogs but our perspective of these  animals is felt through our lap dogs not work dogs.  I have realized by seeing these fine dogs and their owners up close and personal that their is a mutual love and respect between person and dog which I never felt before.  Here are just a few ways (below) that interest and $$’s could be made on this sport for all the competitors and sponsors.

(1) ALASKA-  Have local live television and radio coverage of the  sport before, during and after the race from networks stationed in and around Alaska with a focus of the personality and names behind the sport.

(2) NAME CHANGE– Iditarod is hard enough for the average person to say let alone spell and if you want to increase  viewers you have to names and symbols that make it easy for the viewer/supporter. How  about simply “THE RACE!”

(3) MOVIES- Disney type movies  should be made  on individuals  such as Sarah Douglas who not only changed this sport but could change many others.

(4) NASCAR–  Follow NASCAR’s example and have company sponsors on each and every part of the sled, clothes and equipment used in the sport. 

(5) OLYMPICS- Fight to have this sport brought back to the Winter Olympics even if in a shorter version or as opening and closing ceremony. 

This might appear to be a bit prejudice but I’m wondering if the “Gibson” name has something to do with poor judgement. Where actors with the last name Gibson will act in ways which destroy a relatively easy career path by being completely dumb. Last week  Thomas Gibson entered that category by having a physical alteration with a writer over a creative difference and losing $5,000,000 in return. I’m sure he might get some of those monies back in a settlement but if they were going to pay most humans anything in the 6 figures most of us would be happy to put any creative differences aside and deal with our frustration as we count the dough.  It’s not just Thomas that has been cursed with this last name but Mel who has made ever attempt to destroy his profitable career as well. If it wasn’t for a Sheen and a Lohan in the mix I would consider it an epidemic of stupidity treated by only me and others with different last names step in and at 1/2 the cost.

I’m sorry Christine but I’m married. It’s not going to help that you broke up with Johnnie. Okay maybe it makes me think a 2nd time but I really don’t have his musical talent although I’ve been known to play a great Cowbell. You’re also a bit older then me but I guess at this age it really doesn’t matter. Well maybe a little lunch couldn’t hurt anyway I got to eat right and if it… Stop it I’m married …and just call me.

Jaden Smith has 7 more lives to expend before he’s captured buzz history. For so far those in the buzz world have claimed he’s moved to the Golden Gate twice only to see that he’s hasn’t got the invitation and is still here with us.  Either someone is sending the wrong letter to a different Smith or the buzz world should stay quiet for awhile. G-D willing Jaden will be with us for many, many generations going but whether the buzz will continue to ring is still the question.

Has M. Night Shyamalan used his sixth sense to discover this script we will only know by January but at least we can hope.

I could have had my name in the lights if these individuals didn’t control the electricity. As I watched the Democratic Convention and so all the Hollywood Elite smiling in the audience I realized why my Oscar has not been sent.   Yes I’m using Hollywood Liberals as my excuse why stardom hasn’t popped up in my life.  Of course you could say that my singing and dancing talents weren’t up to par or even 1/2 par but that’s a reason I’d like to put in the  closet.  They just found out that my political philosophy didn’t match theirs and therefore didn’t even attempt to call (maybe I should have given them a number). It’s unfair and unjust because I was never given that chance for stardom not for who am I but the philosophy I hold dear…. well maybe going for an audition might have helped as well.

Unthinkable is one of the most thought provoking movies that deals with the ticking time bomb scenario and torture ever made. What makes it move in this direction is that it gives the audience all the questions (just a few below) for them to determine afterwards what is the right answer if they can at all?  It  is not politically correct because it actually makes the viewer think on their own instead of preach to them.

(1) Would you torture not only an individual but their family in order to stop a bomb that could kill thousands if not millions?

(2) Is it worth giving into a demand(s) of a terrorist in order to save life’s as the clock is ticking away?

(3) Where do you draw your lines and how do you determine what truly works?

Watch this movie then tell me how and if you could stop the ticking time bomb with some form of morality?
