Villain Pub - "Zombie Night!"

This is the 4th installment of "HISHE's" Villain Pub series. In honor of Halloween, this episode just has zombies roaming around the bar as "collective villains". Meanwhile, "Joker", "Kahn"  and "Voldemort" sit at the bar complaining to the usual bartender, "Emperor Palpatine" and arguing if zombies should even count as "villains". The "Joker" is still rocking that new look from the last clip, poking fun at the "Gotham" television series. "Bowser" (the bouncer) also makes a short appearance in this clip. HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

Patriots vs Dolphins | Week 8 Game Recap

Tonight, The New England Patriots played the Miami Dolphins in what turned into a great game in the second half. An explosive, 1st quarter touchdown pass to Gronkowski seemed to set the precedent for how the rest of the game was going to go. But that turned out to be the ONLY touchdown the Patriots scored in the first half, and rest of the half was slow and boring. The Patriots went into half time leading 12 - 0.

The Patriots completely dominated the second half of the game, making it a more entertaining game to watch. Tonight's game was all about "Minitron"!! (Julian Edelman). He scored two amazing 3rd quarter touchdowns and seemed to be Brady's #1 receiver throughout the game. He came through in nearly every 3rd down situation and made clutch catches. Dion Lewis, who the Patriots usually use as a running back, caught a touchdown pass himself. Which gave him almost 100 yards on the game and it gave Tom Brady his 4th touchdown pass of the game! The Dolphins quarterback, Ryan Tannehill couldn't get anything going in this game.Not only did he suffer a "safety" because he didn't even know he snapped the ball, but he also suffered a critical interception by Patriots' Duron Harmon, which pretty much sealed their fate. Not much of a competition at all, with the Final score of  36 - 7.

So, The Patriots remain undefeated and unstoppable as they plow ahead into week 9 after crushing yet another opponent. The Patriots are now (8 - 0) for the season and Tom Brady is playing like he did back in 2007. I'm so happy with the outcome of this game and the way the reigning Super Bowl champions are playing this season.

"It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia" - Season 11 is coming!

This is just a short sneak peak at the new season of "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" coming in January 2016. Unfortunately, we just get a glimpse of what to expect in this next season, but its just enough to get you excited for this 11th season, which is a HUGE benchmark.

Seldom do TV shows last over 10 seasons, especially a series that was barely picked up for a second season! Every time I think that they've run out of ideas for new episodes; they continue to surprise me. The show has just gotten better and better with every season.

Patriots vs Jets | Week 7 Game Recap

The  New England Patriots played their longtime rival; the New York (New Jersey) Jets today for Week 7 of the NFL regular season. It was a close game and frustrating for Patriot fans, but the Pats pulled off another victory to become (6 - 0) for the season. Brady deserves most the credit after carrying his team on his back the entire first half of the game. He was actually the leader in rushing yards and also scored the ONLY touchdown in the first half by running the ball in for a Touchdown himself. Brady's receivers kept letting him down, with a dozen dropped passes and missed 1st down opportunities throughout the first half of the game. Including Julian Edelman, who is still having trouble hanging onto passes after he injured his finger in last weeks game against The Colts.

In the second half, the Patriots seemed to rally and take the lead. Brady threw for 355 yards and 2 touchdowns to Danny Amendola and Rob Gronkowski, who seemed to be the only reliable receivers for the Patriots in this game. Amendola is responsible for one amazing touchdown catch and 86 yards. Gronkowski also scored a wide open TD pass and a career high, 105 yards. It was a close game, neither team was able to get anything going on the running game, and both teams were plagued with injuries to their starters.

The Jets running back, Chris Ivory was playing on a clearly injured left leg, rendering him ineffective for the game, and the absence of  Patriot's Don Lewis (due to injury) was very noticeable in this game. Not to mention, Nate Solder is out for the season with a major injury. Brandon Lafell subbed in, to make his debut for the Patriots and did a horrible job - he can't catch the ball! I hope he is cut from the offense before they play on Thursday, October 29th (only a 4 day rest) against the Miami Dolphins, who are also doing well this season. The Patriots won this game by one touchdown, FINAL score was 30 - 23 and The patriots remain undefeated this season!

"The Night Before" Red Band Trailer

The trailer for this movie pretty much explains everything; its clearly a bromance comedy starring three best friends who are growing older and growing apart from one another. They have one last year to spend Christmas eve together after making it a tradition for years. So, of course, they want to end this tradition with a bang. It stars a trio of unlikely friends in Seth Rogen, Joseph Gordon Levitt, and Anthony Mackie. The movie looks like its all about debauchery and partying hard, it shows a side of Joseph Gordon Levitt that I haven't seen before. Plus, it's pretty much guaranteed to be funny if Seth Rogen is starring in the film. "The Night Before" is directed by Jonathan Levine, who also directed the 2011 movie "50 / 50", which also starred Rogen and Levitt together.

Not to mention, it's produced by Evan Goldberg, who has brought us pretty much EVERY Seth Rogen movie. Including, "Knocked Up", "Funny People", "50 / 50", "Neighbors", "This is the End", "Pineapple Express", "The Interview", and even "The Green Hornet". All of which, are good movies, so if you see Seth Rogen in a movie, chances are Goldberg wrote / produced it. They work very well together, and this movie looks like it's going to be another classic Seth Rogen comedy. Anthony Mackie is an interesting casting choice, and I'm excited to see him star in this Christmas movie that's NOT for kids.

So, it's another holiday movie, but "The Night Before" actually releases on November 20, 2015. It looks entertaining, fast-paced, and crazy!

"Daddy's Home" - Trailer

Mark Wahlberg and Will Ferrell are at it again, in what looks like a hilarious holdiay movie. They both starred in "The Other Guys" together and it seems like they play very similar roles in this movie. Will Ferrell is the stupid, naive one and Wahlberg is the tough, handsome one again. It's dad vs step-dad in this one, and Wahlberg is "Daddy", the cool, macho, biker dad. Will Ferrell is the lame, innocent, step-dad that tries too hard. But, no matter how hard he tries, Mark Wahlberg shows him up every chance he gets.

Wahlberg plays a bad-ass that comes to visit his family (presumably after a prison stay or something) and tries to get them back. Ferrell is just the nerdy step-dad that doesn't even have the respect of his step-children. It looks hilarious and it's nice to see these two actors on screen again. Linda Cardellini is also in this film, she plays the mother trying to keep the peace. I like the fact that I'm seeing Cardellini play in more and more movies lately, because her career was on pause for a lil while there. It should be a fantastic movie and it releases on Christmas Day 2015!

"Captain America: Civil War" Teams

Everyone has been waiting & wondering which heroes team up with "Captain America" OR "Iron Man" in "Captain America: Civil War". The reason these Marvel allies are divided and fighting in this movie is still unknown. The prevailing theory is that "Stark" wants to implement a "mutant-registration act" (Just like they did in X-Men) and "Captain America" doesn't trust his government anymore, after what happened in "Captain America: Winter Soldier". There is still no trailer yet, so i just watched a bunch of nerd YouTube videos about it and read what happens in the comic books. Unfortunately, the movie is not going to follow the Marvel comic books "Civil War" series.

There IS a villain in this movie, who "Cap'" must defeat, called "Crossbones". Who is actually the burnt up remains of "Rumlo"; the guy that turns on "Cap" and fights "Falcon" in the 2nd "Captain America" movie. I saw some on-set clips of them fighting so I'm already excited! The two super-hero teams fighting each other are shown in these two official Marvel animations.

As you can see in the first picture: "Hawkeye", "Ant-Man" (On "Hawkeye's" shoulder) "Agent 13", "Falcon", "Winter Soldier / Bucky" (now that his memory has suddenly come back),  and "Scarlet Witch" (Not shown in picture ?) are all on Team: "Captain America". In the comic books, "Falcon" has an actual pet falcon that he communicates with telepathically. However, the movie adaptation is a falcon-drone that he can call on if he needs assistance. (You can see it in the photo flying above "Falcon").

As shown in the second picture: "War Machine", "Black Widow", "Vision", and "Black Panther" are all on Team: "Iron Man". However, "Black Panther" and "Spider-Man" are both supposed to play neutral roles in this movie, and neither of them pick a side. So, that second picture shouldn't feature "Black Panther".But other than that, These are the official teams for the upcoming Marvel movie; "Civil War".Unfortunately, I don't think "Thor" & "Hulk" (or "She-Hulk") will be making an appearance in this fillm, even though they play significant roles in the "Civil War" comic series.

 Which team do you think is stronger? Who's side are YOU on? The movie hits theaters on May 6, 2016

"Bloodsucking Bastards" - Movie Review

I love horror movies & I also love comedies, and this movie has a perfect balance of both. It has gruesome vampire killings and funny characters with hilarious dialogue. This movie stars Fran Kranz as the nerdy main character, "Evan". Joey Kern plays "Ted", the office slacker that reminds me of "Workaholics". He actually played a small role in a "Workaholics" episode, as well as other small roles in "Key & Peele", "Super Troopers", and "The Goods - Live Hard, Sell Hard". I had no idea he was so funny, and he brought most of the comic relief in this movie. I'm glad Joey Kern finally got a big role on screen, and he nailed it! He is a big part pf why this movie is so funny. This film also features my NEW dream girl, Emma Fitzpatrick. She does a great job in the movie and she is gorgeous!

I like the movie's premise, the office branch hires a new boss and his methods are more than unorthodox. One by one, he turns all the employees into vampires that work more efficiently and make more sales. Essentially, they become model employees. Well, best friends "Evan" and "Tim" don't intend on being turned into vampires. With the help of "Evan's" girlfriend, "Amanda", they fight their way out of the windowless, dark office (the three of them are in the bottom photo) The vampires looked legit, they look like the vampires in "From Dusk Til Dawn" The amount of blood is a little over-kill, but I still thoroughly enjoyed this horror-comedy and I give "Bloodsucking Bastards" a 7/ 10

Patriots vs Colts | Week 6 Game Recap

The Patriots played their long-time divisional rival tonight for week 6, and just as everyone anticipated; Andrew Luck & The Indianapolis Colts lost  to the New England Patriots. However, it wasn't a blowout victory like people expected it to be. In fact, the Patriots only beat the Colts by one touchdown in what was a pretty close game... Until the 4th quarter, where it seemed like the Colts couldn't do anything right. They need to hurry up and get Matt Hassleback to take over for Andrew Luck. The Colts also added some new players to their roster, including Andre Johnson, the super wide receiver from the Texans (worst team ever). Frank Gore, the Pro-Bowl, former 49ers star running back is another amazing addition to this new Colts team, and both of them showed what they can do early on in this game. It was a close match and both teams had to scratch and claw for every point they got, but the Patriots won! 34 - 27.

Lets not forget that The Colts were the ones that first accused Brady and the Patriots of deflating their footballs after the AFC Championship game last year, they started this whole stupid deflate-gate crap. So it was extremely gratifying to watch The Patriots shut them up and prove Tom Brady doesn't need to cheat to be the Best QB in the league. Tonight, Brady threw for 3 Touchdowns and 312 yards! Edelman and Amendola are both great slot receivers, and they both had a big impact on this game. So, The Patriots remain undefeated with a (5 - 0) record this season. The ONLY other team that's currently undefeated is the Denver Broncos with Peyton Manning at the helm. He's the reason there is a Colts-Patriots rivalry in the first place, so I can't wait to see the Pats play the Broncos on November 29th! That's going to be a good game, and perhaps the start of a whole new rivalry.

"Doctor Strange" Casted

Marvel Studios will be introducing several new heroes & villains next year, including "Deadpool", "Black Panther" (in "Captain America: Civil War") and "Doctor Strange", who will be the next Marvel hero to get his own movie. In the comic books, "Dr. Steven Strange" is actually a magician that can cast a variety of spells on enemies. He also has the "Cloak of Levitation", which enables him to fly, "The Eye of Agamotto", which enables him to counteract any evil magic, and "The Orb of Agamotto", which he uses as a crystal ball of sorts. Those are just a few of "Doctor Strange's" abilities. In addition to his magical powers, he is trained in martial arts and he's an incredibly smart neuro-scientist. He's one of the brainy "Avengers" (like "Bruce Banner" & "Tony Stark") and Benedict Cumberbatch was chosen to play this role.

Which is interesting, because he did such a convincing job at playing the villain in the 2nd "Star Trek" movie. I also don't understand how they can make an entire movie about "Steven Strange", he's one on the lamest heroes in the Marvel Comic Universe / "MCU". However, I think Cumberbatch was a perfect choice to play this eccentric, powerful character, so hopefully that will correlate into being a good film. No trailer released YET, but the movie releases on November 4, 2016 and I will post the trailer as soon as it releases.

"Black Panther" Casted

It's official, Chadwick Boseman has been chosen to play "Black Panther" in the next "Captain America" movie - "Civil War" on May 6, 2016. He is added as an "Avenger" and gets his own "Black Panther" movie on November 3, 2017. Marvel is also releasing a "Doctor Strange" movie around that same time, and both characters will be added to the New "Avengers" team. There is currently no trailer for "Captain America: Civil War" yet, but I can't wait to see "Black Panther" make his debut in this Heroes vs Heroes movie!

The "Black Panther" is "T'Challa", the prince of Wakanda (Where the strongest metal on Earth is found). He must rise to become king after his father is killed. He's definitely not the most interesting character in the Marvel Universe (MCU), but he's actually an original "Avenger" in the comic books. Also, Chadwick Boseman is a nobody and a weird casting choice. The only other movies he has been in are "42" and "Draft Day". Not to mention, he looks too similar to Anthony Mackie, who plays "Falcon". Our first glimpse of "Black Panther" will be in the third "Captain America" movie coming up on May 6, 2015.

"Cooties" - Movie Review

I never heard about this movie until recently, and there was no marketing behind the release of this film on September 18, 2015. I think it pretty much went straight to "On Demand" & Netflix. Which is surprising, considering the film stars the likes of Rainn Wilson, Elijah  Wood, and Jack McBrayer in this horror-comedy movie about zombie kids. I love zombie movies & TV shows, so I was excited when I discovered this film. Unfortunately, the zombie make-up looks cheap and the zombie kids don't look like real zombies, they just have red paint on their face and cheap Halloween make-up. Plus, it's hard to be scared of kids, and maybe that's why no one has ever made a zombie movie where the virus only affects people that haven't gone through puberty yet. (Hence the title, "Cooties")

It's a strange premise, but it actually turned out to be a fun and thrilling movie. These comedy heavy-hitters like, Rainn Wilson and Jack McBrayer really  make this movie hilarious. The dialogue between the "teachers" when they're hiding from their zombie students is what makes it so funny. This movie is directed by Jonathan Millot, a first time director... so it could have been stupid, but it turned out to be a great, short (88 min), and fresh take on the whole zombie theme. The only part of the film I didn't like was the ending because there was no resolution to the story and the movie leaves the audience wondering "What happens next?" Does the pretty girl end up with Rainn Wilson or Elijah Wood's character?? It just shows the surviving teachers driving off into the distance together at the end. Still, I definitely recommend this movie to fans of horror AND/OR comedy films, because there is a lot of gore in this film as well as non-stop laughs. I Loved it, and I give "Cooties" a 9 /10.

Patriots vs. Cowboys | Week 5 Game Recap

Today, the undefeated New England Patriots played against the hated Dallas Cowboys for week 5 of the regular NFL season. Fresh off their "bye" week, the Patriots came back refreshed and beat the Cowboys 30-6. There seems to be a recurring theme for the Patriots this season - they continue to blow out their opponents! (I don't believe in "running the score up") Clearly, the Patriots were the better football team, but to be fair, Dallas is using their 2nd string QB right now while Romo is injured. It was still an entertaining game to watch (as always), it's always fun to watch your favorite team win! Not only did Tom Brady throw for 20 passes and 2 Touchdown passes, but he also ran the ball in on a QB-sneak! Julian Edelman deserves the "game ball" for his performance. He got 120 yards and one amazing Touchdown score out of only 4 catches. Lewis also scored a pretty crazy / daring TD, making himself A more and more useful addition to this team.

It's true that the Dallas Cowboys used to be "America's Team" and today they got beat by the Patriots, who have now become the NEW "America's Team". They remain undefeated and unstoppable!!

How "Ant-Man" Should Have Ended

Finally, another Marvel edition of "HISHE", and this one is about the latest Marvel movie - "Ant-Man". I recently wrote a review of this film and this clip sums it up in the first scene. "Hank Pym" should have approached Paul Rudd's character immediately if he thought he was such a perfect fit for "Ant-Man". Instead, he makes him go through all the trouble of stealing the suit, returning it, getting arrested, breaking out of jail, and finally he is asked to become "Ant-Man". It didn't need to be so elaborate, it could have been this simple!

Also, a gun that turns the enemy into a gusher-size pile of goop is worth billions by itself. Why didn't "Cross" just sell that idea to the military? Instead, he becomes the evil "Yellow Jacket"....just to make it even more ridiculous. I loved Michael Cena in the movie and I love him in this clip too !

"San Andreas" - Review

There has long been ridiculous rumors and predictions about the entire state of California detaching from the rest of the United States as the result of a massive earthquake. The reason some scientists have backed this theory up, is because California has several active faults throughout the state which produce large earthquakes. The most active faults are the San Jacinto Fault and the San Andreas Fault located in Southern California.They form tectonic plates between the Pacific ocean and the North American boundaries.

So there really is a "San Andreas" fault, but it would take a catastrophic series of earthquakes.registering over 8.0 on the Richter scale to cause the type of damage seen in the movie. The largest earthquake in California history was a 7.9 magnitude back in 1857 in Fort Tejon. That earthquake did indeed rupture the San Andreas Fault from Parkfield to Wrightwood (a distance of 225 miles!) However, the most destructive earthquake in California history was in 1906 in San Francisco. That earthquake registered at a 7.8  and ended up killing more than 3,000 people and ruptured the northern part of the San Andreas Fault, all the way from San Juan Bautista to Cape Mendocino (a distance of 296 miles).

So, the plot of the movie is actually plausible, but still not very probable. It's been over 100 years since the San Andreas fault caused an earthquake of that magnitude, and California still hasn't broken off from the rest of the U.S.to become independent yet. Still, it was a pretty good movie with great CGI graphics and nail-biting suspense. Plus I think Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson is actually a good actor.... and he's gigantic. The movie also stars Paul Giomatti and my dream girl, Alexandra Daddario. The movie is pretty cheesy, so I give "San Andreas" a 6 /10. 

"Vacation" - Review

This movie is based off the 1983 film, "National Lampoon's Vacation" (original title was "Vacation") The top photo shows a young Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo in the original "Vacation" movie, along with their two kids - "Audrey" and "Rusty". The original film was so popular that they made 3 more "Griswold Family Vacation" movies ending in 1997. The bottom photo is the NEW 2015 version that features Ed Helms as "Rusty" all grown up, married to Christina Applegate and they also have two children. It's just like the original "Vacation" movie, Ed Helms basically plays the same part as Chevy Chase, and nothing seems to go right on his family vacation either. Ed Helms was the perfect choice for this role and bringing this movie franchise back twenty years later with "Rusty" as the dad this time was genius.

We also get to see "Audrey" all grown up and played by Leslie Mann, she is married to Chris Hemsworth in the movie and lives a nice, luxurious life in Texas. Other actors featured in this new "Vacation" movie are Chevy Chase and Beverly D'Angelo as "Rusty's" old parents, Norman Reedus as the creepy trucker, Charlie Day as the suicidal river guide, Colin Hanks as a passenger on the plane, Keegan Key as "Rusty's" friend from home and. Kaitlin Olson, Michael Pena, and Nick Kroll all play police officers that end up in a stand off with each other. It was a hilarious movie and I love that they connected this film to the old "Griswold Family Vacation" movies and hopefully they will release more "Vacation"  movies starring Ed Helms. I give "Vacation" a  9 /10. 

"Mission Impossible: Rogue Nation" - Review

"Rogue Nation" is the 5th installment in the "Mission: Impossible" movie franchise, and it features pretty much the same team members that were in "Ghost Protocol". Tom Cruise as super-spy Ethan Hunt, Simon Pegg returns as "Benji", Jeremy Renner  reprises his role as "Brandt", and Ving Rhames has has been in all 5 "Mission: Impossible" movies as "Luther" from the original team. The only character from "Ghost Protocol" that doesn't return is Paula Patton, as "Jane" (I don't know what happened to her?) The addition of Alec Baldwin makes up for it, especially in the end when he goes from a CIA agent trying to dissolve the "IMF" to the Secretary of Defense that reinstates the "IMF".

So, it's just the guys in this one battling an "anti-IMF" organization called "The Syndicate".It's run by operatives listed as "dead" or "missing & presumed dead", and the leader of the syndicate is "Solomon Lane", a terrorist who always seems to be one step ahead. But of course, "Ethan Hunt" has a trick up his sleeve (as always). With the help of his team, he pulls off this "impossible" mission and meets yet another beautiful woman along the way.

The CIA absolves "IMF" in the beginning of the movie, so "Hunt" makes it his personal mission to take down "The Syndicate" without any "IMF Headquarters" assistance. That results in the CIA looking to capture "Ethan Hunt" as a rogue agent while he is hiding out in France, Morocco, and other countries. It was an action-packed spy thriller that featured some cool new spy gear (as usual) and the same characters we have seen work so well together before. The movie picks up where "Ghost Protocol" ended, and it was a little too complex for me at times, but it's still a great action film and another thrilling addition to this spy-movie saga that's not quite finished yet... So, expect at least one more "Mission: Impossible" movie in the future starring Tom Cruise. I give "Mission: Impossible 5: Rogue Nation" a  8/ 10.

"Trainwreck" - Review

"Trainwreck" is the latest film by Judd Apatow, the director /producer of such hit films and personal favorites as "Bridesmaids", "Knocked Up", "This is 40", "Wanderlust", "Step Brothers", "The 40 Year Old Virgin", "Anchorman", "Pineapple Express", etc,. This is another hilarious Apatow film, and this one is basically all about Amy Shumer being a slut. It also features other funny actors like, Bill Hader, Brie Larson (who I'm in love with), Colin Quinn, Tim Meadows, Dave Attell, Method Man, John Cena and famous athletes Lebron James and Amar'e Stoudemire starring as themselves.

Bill Hader plays his first serious role as a doctor that specializes in sports injuries, and Amy Shumer plays a writer for "SNUFF Magazine" where she is assigned to write an article about this doctor to pro-athletes. He makes an unlikely couple with the drunk, sarcastic, mean, and potty-mouthed Amy Shumer. Amy realizes she must change her lifestyle and attitude to make it work with Bill Hader's character. Like I said in the preview - I'm not a fan of Amy Shumer, but Judd Apatow is incapable of making a bad movie, and this is yet another great example of that. Some critics said it was like watching a soft-core porn due to all the graphic sex-scenes in the movie, but I give "Trainwreck" a  7 /10.

Charlie Day - "I Like Life at Paddy's Pub"

This is the original & "sober" version of "Charlie Kelly's" song from "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" - season 9. It's the episode where the gang tries to win the "Best Bar" award and  "Charlie" takes it upon himself to win the non-existent "best song" award. The song is called "I Like Life at Paddy's Pub", and it's actually pretty good.! I knew Charlie Day could play piano, but I didn't know he could sing just as well.

He does a great job with this song, especially considering that it's 100% improvised. He actually did a few other improvised versions of this song while he's high in the episode, but this was the best one. You can find the other versions of this song online, the video above is the regular version that made the episode."It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" returns in January 2016. So for now, Enjoy this!
