B.A.M is now on Twitter!! Yes, I finally gave in and created a Twitter account, regarless of how dirty it sounds when I say that I Tweeted. But this will actually be a blesing in disguise because I always have just random thoughts when I see a new trailer or a movie news article but it's never enough for a full post. And as I make he move to my own domain I will be sure to give updates.

Kids Movies That Kids Should Never See

2009-04-11T17:50:00.000-07:00

I've been reminiscing lately on movies from my childhood which has inspired many new post ideas. This first one for you guys is some of my favorite movies from when I was a kid that I, and all children, probably should have never seen. Willy Wonka/Charlie and the Chocolate FactoryI thought I would pick the most obvious one first. The story of of a candy maker letting children in his factory is

Check It Out: The Sasquatch Dumpling Gang

2009-04-01T21:01:00.000-07:00

Now, before you say anything please don't judge it by its name. I came across this movie last month on Comedy Central and was pleasantly surprised. IMDB summarizes The Sasquatch Dumpling Gang as:Young, fantasy/sci-fi aficionado Gavin Gore and his friends stumble onto some huge footprints in the woods. A local cop, reporter and a renowned Sasquatch authority investigate, while two of Gavin's

You Know What's Annoying?

2009-04-01T20:41:00.000-07:00

Just thought I'd go off on a quick rant about some things that doesn't just get on my last nerve, but gets on, sexually assaults it, steals all of its money and gives it a black eye. "That Show"Everyone has heard this before but you might not have realized it, my girlfriend does this all the time, when someone calls a movie a "show". Let me give an example:Me: Tom Hanks is my favorite actorMy

What Would Have Really Happened

2009-03-25T23:13:00.000-07:00

After spending almost twenty one years watching countless movies with encounters and events that are only believable in the minds of Hollywood. So, I decided to write some brief descriptions of what would really happen if these took place in real life. Keep in mind that every movie I list I love, I'm just pointing out the obvious.Happy GilmoreIf Happy wasn't already in jail for attacking his

Shouldn't Be Forgotten Movie: "Super Mario Bros."

2009-03-25T18:51:00.000-07:00

Super Mario Bros. was one of the first video game remakes and to this day is by far the best. Creativity doesn't even begin to describe the use of all aspects of the video game in 1993 classic. If you haven't been living under a rock for decades then you know the basic plot of Mario, the movie definitely adds alot to the story but still keeps the basics intact. Mario and Luigi Mario (played by

Role Models DVD Review

2009-03-23T19:33:00.000-07:00

Role Models was by far one of the funniest movies of last year. With its amazing casting, great writing and use of the untouched resource of LARP(Live Action Role Play) there was no way it could be anything less than hilarious. This non stop comedy doesn't hide behind anything, except for a shield and sword made of foam and duct tape. The creative and talented writing of its three writers(Paul

20 Movies in one sentence

2009-03-19T10:38:00.000-07:00

I get tired of having to explain classic movies to people like my girlfriend or my dad. So, I've compiled these twenty unforgettable movies and summarized them in one sentence each to save time when the need for explaining comes up.1.) Titanic- Poor guy and rich girl on a boat, they rock the boat then the boat hits a rock.2.) Requim for a Dream- Black guy and a white guy do heroin, alot.3.) Half

Shouldn't Be Forgotten Movie: "Hostage"

2009-03-13T17:34:00.000-07:00

For the fist installment of "Shouldn't be forgotten movie" I choose 2005's action/drama/thriller Hostage. Bruce Willis plays Jeff Tally, a hostage negotiator, but after a stand off gone wrong takes a year long hiatus as a small town sheriff until three troubled teens decide to rob Walter Smiths, Kevin Pollack's, mansion forcing Sheriff Tally to resume his old position. Bruce Willis' role as Jeff

T.V. shows that should be movies

2009-03-07T10:48:00.000-08:00

There's not much back story to this one. I just thought of a bunch of T.V. shows, past and present, that would make pretty awesome movies.-The Joy of Painting with Bob RossIt would be the most relaxing hour to two hours of your life-InterventionStarring Gary Busey as the addict and Dr. Phil as the intervention specialist-Legends of the Hidden TemplePicture Indiana Jones except there is no real

"Sex Drive" DVD review

2009-03-06T17:31:00.000-08:00

Sex Drive is the American Pie of the new generation. With Josh Zuckerman as Jim and Clark Duke and James Marsden sharing the characteristics of Stiffler. The plot is one seen many times, the loser trying to have sex with the "hot" girl but ends up falling in love with the "other" girl. Despite the plot repetedness, it's hilarious. Writers John Morris and Sean Anders don't wait to start making

The new source of movie remakes

2009-03-05T14:46:00.000-08:00

As I see more and more movies coming out that are remakes of past books, comics or movies...I wonder. What will be the next source of pre-created stories or characters that Hollywood will tap into? I believe what sparked this pondering was the announcement of movie remakes of Hasbro toys. So again, what's next? A remake based off the "hang in there" kitty poster? I'll give you the answer, (long

2009-03-02T19:10:00.000-08:00

There were rumors going around recently the Anton Yelchin is to play The Green Lantern in the upcoming movie about the famous comic book character. IESB.net was at a Terminator Salvation panel at WonderCon and Yelchin himself denied the rumors. Yelchin said:“I had no idea about that…I have no clue.” He continued, “I have no idea. I think I’m probably too young. I mean, no one has approached me.

Hasbro taking over the big screen

2009-02-25T07:13:00.000-08:00

Have they ran out of things to remake? Yes, in a recent article by Variety it discussed Gore Verbinski, director of the Pirates of the Caribean movies, coming on to the remake of Clue as director. More importantly though, Variety briefly talks about other Hasbro adaptations in the works. Hasbro has "Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen" and "G.I. Joe: Rise of Cobra," both of which will be

10 Movies there will never be a sequel to

2009-02-24T16:43:00.000-08:00

In this decade of sequels I got to thinking of movies that are safe from being continued in a sequel. I decided on the following ten movies that there will never be a sequel to. Although, I wouldn't be surprised if they found a way to.Pootie Tang 2In the sequel the government has reason to believe that Pootie is in immigrant, due to his speech, and is forced to take English classesGigli 2The

"Iron Man 2" plot revealed

2009-02-23T05:56:00.000-08:00

Although the trailer has not yet been set free to the public, the plot for the inevitable sequel has. You can expect that the characters you loved from last years box office smash to return in the sequel, for the exception of Don Cheadle replacing Terrence Howard as Rhodey. Mickey Rourke and Sam Rockwell will be playing as the villains fighting against Robert Downy Jr., returning as Iron Man.

"Still Waiting..." DVD review

2009-02-22T15:24:00.000-08:00

Writer Rob McKittrick and Jeff Balis, except as director, team up for the sequel to 2005's Waiting. Right off the back I can say that this is not like most straight to DVD movies, it's actually good. It's filled with the dirty jokes and inappropriate comments that can only follow a movie like Waiting. Filmmakers did a fantastic job developing a new plot while keeping the same formula for comedy

10 Rules of horror movies

2009-02-21T16:05:00.000-08:00

For those who have at least seen one horror movie have encountered but may not have noticed these guidelines. Now, it's titled "10 Rules of horror movies" but the genre of horror has expanded nowadays. These rules mostly apply to the "slasher" films, for example Halloween or more recently Prom Night or My Bloody Valentine.1.) Someone always has to have sex2.) The people who do have sex, always

The fall of creative writers

2009-02-20T15:38:00.000-08:00

The majority of movies that have come out in the past three or four years, to me, have marked the fall of creative minds in the movie industry. It's a difficult task to see a movie that isn't a remake of a past movie, comic or book; or a sequel of a movie that shouldn't have had a sequel. Now, obviously it takes a large amount of talent to adapt something like a book and put your own spin on it

What really would have happened...(cont.)

2009-02-19T20:46:00.000-08:00

The NotebookAllie never would have written the "notebook" because she has Alzheimer's...End of the movie.Reservoir DogsWith the amount of blood coming out of Mr. Orange throughout the film, he would have died from blood loss shortly after arriving at the warehouse...Not ending the film but definitely taking out the twist and preventing the big ending shoot out.

Friday the 13th on Saturday the 14th

2009-02-16T20:58:00.000-08:00

The next long awaited chapter in the Friday the 13th saga "slashed" into theaters this past weekend on, of course, Friday the 13th. Personally I feel much closure after the previous "Jason X". Anyone who has seen one of the past films or any of the classic slasher movies might be hesitant to buy a ticket in fear that it won't live up the expectations created from the hype but let me assure you,

We'll see how this goes

2009-02-16T20:50:00.000-08:00

So...I'm new to blogging and it will be obvious as I start writing more. I'm not sure what "niche" I want this to belong to yet, a lot of ideas though. Maybe movie reviews, how to guides, restaurant reviews or some type of discussions. I guess we'll see how this goes.If anyone has any advice or criticism, feel free to let me know.
