Hey everyone. I hope everyone is having a great three day weekend like I am. Until this morning, my living room television died. Its like three-four years old and I used it a lot. It's a 42inch 1080p Sylvania but its okay its time to upgrade to a 46inch RCA. I like buying new gadgets and playing around with them. It makes my day.

WEIGHT UPDATE:
This weekend I went to Retro and got my work out on. I stayed there for about a good two hours just focusing on running. With my cleansing, its giving me a lot of energy to use in the gym which help lose about 4 pounds over the weekend, which makes me feel really good about myself. I just have to stay healthy and stay away from soda and I think I can beat this challenge. The reason I like the challenge is because its keeping me focus on a goal, without it I would have nothing look forward to and I will just move on. The challenge is my momentum and I don't want to let anyone down.

NRF UPDATE:
Yesterday we did a review on the new walking dead episode 9. The episode was one of the best ones all season and is making me look forward to the next one. To see why check out the video review at www.youtube.com/nerdragefilmshd

Today I am hoping to get Vlog 2 up on the site, talking about how we did during the week and what to expect coming up for Nerd Rage Films. So keep your eyes open for that.

Thanks for reading my blog and if you have any tips that can help me lose my weight just comment below or comment on the video.

Walking Dead Season Two (second half)

SPOILER ALERT:
AMC The Walking Dead last night aired the first episode of the second half of the second season and it was boring. I felt like this could've been the end of the first half because now it leaves Lori in car accident while she's pregnant without any knowing her whereabouts, Hershel's bad habits coming out, and Rick killing innocent people. But my biggest problem is there was no change in scenery. I figured they made a break in the season to make changes in location but they didn't. I am so sick of this farm. I really hope they make some changes in the next episode. Overall the show is awesome as it is. I just thought it was unnecessary to have a break that just leads right back to where they left of. There should've been a change somewhere.

Hyper Crush - Night Wave

Hyper Crush release a new album finally might I add called Night Wave with the hot new track called "Werk Me". The album is a new sound for Hyper Crush and I love it. The tracks on the new album are all upbeat dance music compared to their old album The Arcade that was more like a hip hop album. Hyper Crush is a merging artist that I think deserve more credit then they get already. They travel around the united states just playing clubs and making every show different then the last one. To listen to samples of their music you can go to www.itunes.com or www.hypercrush.com. Plus you can always just check them out on YouTube where they have their new music videos like Werk Me and Maniac. It's worth your time.

Fast Five

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1596343/

Vid Diesel and Paul Walker are back and their driving skills is at the top of their game in this new movie. They are prepared to do the greatest job they have ever done before, that can make them millionaires and this time they are bringing old friends to help out like Tyrese Gibson, Ludacris, Gal Gadot, and Sung Kang. Also the person who plays as the cop chasing them down is no other then Dwayne Johnson aka "The Rock".

I thought this was the best Fast and Furious movie yet. Fast Five focused more on the plot, action, character development, and  special effects more then the car scenes. I loved it. This is exactly what they needed. Fast Five has a great cast who got the movie to be a blockbuster hit. Watching this movie I got my chance to see Vin Diesel and Dwayne Johnson duke it out over who is the tougher guy, a scene where Diesel and Walker jump out of a car as they driver it off a cliff, and the most exciting car scene I have ever witness in a movie. The car scene involved Walker and Diesel to hook their cars up to a high security safe in a police station and pull it out into the town. They drive that safe all around town trying to avoid the police, causing tons of property damage and I am pretty sure they killed tons of people in the long run. The scenes in Fast Five were more entertaining then the story line itself. The story line was very simple and didn't move me but it's what I expected. Also, from what I hear the production company is making a 6th movie but does not say it's the last one or not. Fast Five is definitely a movie to check out when it comes on DVD. Rent it from Netflix or Blockbuster (if yours didn't go out of business yet) and enjoy with a nice warm butter popcorn and a soda. 

Fast Five does not get 5 stars but does get

4 out of 5 Stars

This is exactly the right direction they are going. I wish they did this sooner and say forget the car racing. Just need to work on the plot. 

Hangover Part II

 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1411697/

The wolf pack is back and this time Stu is getting married. He tries to play it safe and not have another disaster happen before his wedding day but it seems that destiny brought everything into place, where he wakes up with his buddies in Bangkok. This time he didn't loose Doug, he lost his future wife's little brother Teddy. From there they are stuck figuring out the clues on where Teddy is and what happen the previous night.

In my opinion, Hangover Part II is exactly like the first movie. If you can put aside the plot being exactly the same and enjoy the situations the characters are put into then you will enjoy the movie all over again. It's kinda of like a reboot. I still had a good time watching it. It made it easier for me to enjoy the jokes because I knew the formula already in the movie on how the characters will progress to the end, just didn't know what obstacles they had in their way. Ed Helms was more involved in this movie because of the wedding and I thought he was hilarious. His character gets into worst problems then the last movie.  I also liked how the movie added more graphic content it showed that they aren't afraid what people think. They really went over the top with this movie and the cast definitely gave awesome performances by all of them. I can not digress enough how well this movie was done. If this movie came out first I think it would've been did much better. The only thing that ruined it was the plot being the same. I am sure they could have done something different to it.

The movie had appearances from Paul Giamatti and Mike Tyson, both were very good in the movie. Mel Gibson was suppose to be in the movie as a tattoo artist but then was dropped due to the cast and crew and he was replaced by Liam Neeson but Liam couldn't come due to scheduling issues. The tattoo artist was played by an unknown actor.

Thor

Thor

 

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0800369/

So last night I saw the movie Thor. I am a big Marvel fan and let me tell you this Thor was great. It was exactly how I expected it to be. Chris Hemsworth hits the character right on the tip of a nail. The acting was marvelous. See what I did there. If not let me explain it for fun. This is a Marvel movie and I just called the acting MARVELous. Natalie Portman, I have seen her in a couple of movies lately and her acting just gets me every time. She is marvelous The villain was a different kind of a villain he wasn't 100% evil. He just wanted to make his foster father proud and make him king. He would not stop his rampage until he got his way and who wouldn't espacially after you find out your adopted. The guy wasn't even mad either about being adopted, he still acted like he was one in the family. I thought that was interesting and marvelous.

I am not a Thor fan but this movie makes me want to go pick up some Thor comics and get excited for a sequel. But I did find some problems with the movie and if you guys don't know me by now, I find out problems just for the hell of it. I was not impressed with the way Thor's universe looked. Even though it might looked that way in the comics, I believe it could have been more detailed. The action wasn't enough. Thor is suppose to be bad ass and he's not even in enough action. He's not even a trouble maker. He gets exiled to Earth and he makes friends no problem. I would've had him kick some old mans ass and take candy from a baby. I mean come on your father just banned you from home. Start making a new name for yourself. Become King of Earth and get revenge. Then become good because you feel bad and you want to bang Natalie Portman. That would be my Idol. I would get a Thor's name tattoo in a heart on my chest. But do not get me wrong the movie is good. This is just me ranting on.  I am difficult to please.

Also If Marvel Studios really want to impress me, they will invest in Deadpool the movie. They should totally run up to DC take the Green Lantern 2 contract rip it up and sign Ryan Reynold to the movie. Reynolds would do it, he doesn't care he just wants money. Then I will see that movie in IMAX Theaters with a Deadpool shirt on, holding a Deadpool action figure, having my friends hold my Deadpool comic books to make sure movie references a right to the comics, and while writing the best review ever on this blog. If you haven't figure it out yet Deadpool is my favorite Marvel character. A Deadpool movie would make things marvelous.

By The Way, Let me clarify who Deadpool is.
