Here’s a lil’ positivity for the evening. Charles Tillman and his wifey Jackie are getting ready to have their fourth child in a couple of weeks. Tillman tweeted, “God, family, football. Baby is coming Monday. Don’t worry, I’ll be there Sunday.” He repeated the sentiment over on ESPN’s Sports Center in an interview earlier this week as well. Charles had let his teammates know that he may not be playing in the game this coming Sunday and he confirmed he was hesitant to play; “This game is important to me, but after what we went through with my middle child Tiana, to me football is second … It’ll always be second or third in my life. That was a great lesson learned, to teach me that family — when I’m done playing football — my family will always be there for me”. The Tillman’s had to rush finding their daughter Tiana a heart transplant in 2008. Congrats! Images via tumblr
Mark Wahlberg : The new Shia LaBeouf ? Michael Bay and Paramount announced Thursday that Wahlberg, who stars in Bay’s real life crime pic Pain & Gain , will lead the franchise sequel Transformers 4 . “An actor of his caliber is the perfect guy to re-invigorate the franchise and carry on the Transformers ’ legacy,” said Bay in a statement. LaBeouf’s run as the squirrelly-scrappy lead of the Transformers franchise ended with Transformers: Dark of The Moon (he’s moving onward to more artsy fare, anyway — Von Trier ahoy !), but casting someone like Wahlberg changes the game considerably. He’s got the star power of Shia LaBeouf and Josh Duhamel in one. He was nominated twice for the Oscar. He is Mark Wahlberg . I imagine this deal going down one day on the Pain & Gain set over beers, Wahlberg in his Pain & Gain tracksuit ( or maybe this short shorts outfit ) and Bay in a smoking jacket, because for some reason I always picture Michael Bay in a smoking jacket. Feel the vibration! Full press release follows; weigh in on the casting move below. Does it change your feelings on Bay’s mega-blockbuster robot franchise at all? Can we now conceivably picture Transformers and Pain & Gain as connected worlds in the Michael Bay multiverse? HOLLYWOOD, CA (November 8, 2012) – After an exceptionally successful collaboration on the upcoming “Pain and Gain,” Michael Bay has cast Academy Award®-nominee Mark Wahlberg in the highly anticipated “TRANSFORMERS 4.” The film will hit theaters June 27th, 2014. “Mark is awesome. We had a blast working on “Pain and Gain” and I’m so fired up to be back working with him. An actor of his caliber is the perfect guy to re-invigorate the franchise and carry on the Transformers’ legacy,” said Bay. Bay will direct the next installment in the “TRANSFORMERS” series, which begins shooting next spring. From Paramount Pictures, a division of Viacom, Inc., in association with Hasbro, the film will be produced by Don Murphy & Tom DeSanto, Lorenzo di Bonaventura and Ian Bryce, and executive produced by Steven Spielberg, Bay, Brian Goldner and Mark Vahradian. Bay’s first “TRANSFORMERS” film was a box office sensation in 2007, opening at #1 and earning more than $700 million worldwide. His second installment “TRANSFORMERS: REVENGE OF THE FALLEN” in 2009 grossed more than $830 million worldwide. In 2011, “TRANSFORMERS: DARK OF THE MOON” was an even bigger hit worldwide, grossing more than a billion dollars to become the 5th highest grossing film of all time. To date, the franchise has earned more than $2.6 billion worldwide. From acclaimed director Michael Bay comes “Pain and Gain,” a new action comedy starring Mark Wahlberg, Dwayne Johnson and Anthony Mackie. Based on the unbelievable true story of three personal trainers in 1990s Miami who, in pursuit of the American Dream, get caught up in a criminal enterprise that goes horribly wrong. Ed Harris, Tony Shalhoub, Rob Corddry, Rebel Wilson, and Bar Paly also star. The film is based on magazine articles by Pete Collins, with a screenplay by Christopher Markus & Stephen McFeely and produced by Donald DeLine, Michael Bay and Ian Bryce. “PAIN AND GAIN” opens in theaters everywhere April 26th, 2013.
What better way to celebrate the first Victoria’s Secret fashion show….the one the celebs went to for the first taping….while waiting for the second show…for the bloggers I wasn’t invited to…despite being a fucking blog that has been in the game since 2003…before 90 percent of all fucking blogs….than to look at pics of an ex Victoria’s Secret model…who walked away from these bastards….for whatever reason….that I assume comes down to money…because that’s always what breaks up relationships and not cuz both parties are jewish….but cuz that’s what life is based on in this evil society…. Point being, she doesn’t need Victoria’s Secret…they don’t need their tits…and I don’t need any of this bullshit…but I post it anyway…. Here she is for GQ making moves.
I posted some of the pics from this Izabel Goulart shoot the other day…I wasn’t sure what it was for…but I had a feeling it was going to be good and it turns out it is for Elle Brazil….and it turns out that what I saw was just a glimpse into her rocking fucking body…all toned, lean, long and lovely…almost making me wonder why she was fired from Victoria’s Secret, when shit like this is all Victoria’s Secret needs to make me forget they are the most boring company in fashion and lingerie in the game…they just happen to be the evil big beast that we can’t fucking avoid…and the women they recruit…or abduct with promises of fame…who they likely underpay cuz they know so many other girls would DIE to be in their position…just happen to be fucking amazing to fucking look at….especially when being shot by better photogs…for better publications…without the concern of Christian midwesterns showing up at the Ohio office with torches and a lynch mob…cuz Jesus and the Evangelical church they are members of do not promote or accept lingerie models who don’t have their nipples photoshopped out…..
Now that the scariest parts of Silent Hill: Revelation 3D are proving to be the grisly reviews and box-office results, it’ s a good time to look at a handful of choice video games that have much greater potential than the Konami franchise to be blockbuster horror movies. In at least two of the examples I cite below, along with the pros and cons of adapting them, the film industry apparently agrees — or did at one point — that the game titles would translate well to the big screen. Actually making the movies adaptations of the games has not worked so well. 5. BioShock In 2009, BioShock looked like it was destined to be a movie. Pirates of the Caribbean franchise master Gore Verbinski was slated to direct the visually stunning game in which a plane-crash survivor in 1960 finds himself in the underwater Art Deco-style city of Rapture and its mutated inhabitants to survive. When the project ran into budget issues, Verbinski turned over the director’s reins to 28 Weeks Later filmmaker Juan Carlos Fresnadillo and agreed to serve as a producer. Last May, however, Fresnadillo told Playlist he was no longer involved and that the project was on hold because Universal Studios and the game’s creator couldn’t agree on a budget or whether the project should have an R rating or a PG-13, which would attract a broader audience. With the much-delayed third game of the franchise, BioShock Infinite due out in February 2013, and set, this time, in a floating sky-city called Columbia, it’s time to revive this project. Pros: BioShock is beautiful. Simply seeing the steampunk city of Rapture on the big screen would be worth the ticket. With more than 4 million copies of the game sold and a plot that a) is better than most fantasy/horror movies and b) has actually driven the argument of videogames as art, it’s remarkable that it’s not already a movie. Cons: Video games inevitably lose their interactive components when they’re adapted into feature films, but these elements are so integral to the telling of the story that removing them could prove problematic. Videogame tropes such as highlighted objectives and extended cut-scenes aren’t optional extras in this case: they’re built into the plot the same way your heart is built in to you. 4. Left 4 Dead Pros: Valve’s multiplayer masterpiece — and its sequel, Left 4 Dead 2 — are the most viciously fun co-operative games ever made. Four very different characters must team up to survive the zombie apocalypse, or at least make it a little bit further. In addition to the teamwork element, which would translate well to the big screen, Left 4 Dead has some of the best incidental writing in games. Valve understands that writing dialogue is just as important as writing code, because nobody cares if a character’s hair is beautifully rendered when they can’t stand to spend the time with him. Added bonus: the game treats each level as a movie, complete with loading screen posters. Cons: Since there isn’t exactly a shortage of zombie projects out there in movie land, the writing and direction have got to be exceptional. Done properly, the combination of white-knuckle action and well-developed characters could make zombie movies exciting again. Maybe Hollywood should give Valve a lot of money and ask it to produce a script.

Love or hate his shtick, Kevin Smith dropped some amusingly candid real talk on Larry King Now as he explained to the media kingpin why it is he’s retiring from moviemaking after his forthcoming hockey film, Hit Somebody . “If I can’t bring anything new to the game, and I assure you I cannot, there’s no point in stepping up to the plate,” said Smith, who also charmingly compared his 20 years behind the camera to getting an unexpected blow job. Well, Clerks and the success that followed wasn’t just like any blow job. “It was like hoping for a kiss and getting the most amazing blow job you’ve ever had in your life,” he explained to King, who nearly choked as he nodded in recognition. Somebody here knows what you’re talkin’ about, Mr. Smith. Hit Somebody was previously said to star Red State cast members Kyle Gallner, Nicholas Braun, and Michael Angarano, although the project has yet to begin filming. Meanwhile, Smith’s not going anywhere; he may be moving out of the director’s chair but he’s got his multimedia interests (SModcast podcast, books, live shows, Spoilers on Hulu, AMC’s Comic Book Men, Twitter ).

Nina Adgal is a hot bikini model at the top of her game…but for some reason she looks like she’s got a mild case of DOWNS….I as a humanitarian, I think all of God’s children deserve to live out their dreams, especially if those dreams are getting half naked and showing off an rocking body, even if you have DOWNS….because it’s not handicap it is handicapable people…. Not that she has downs….but if she does…she’d probably win the DOWNS beauty pageant….which may not being saying much….and which may not be all that much a competition for her….but it’s nicer than saying she’d lose…. If anything….if DOWNS looked like this…or more babies with DOWNS looked like this, I am sure the DOWNS abortion rate thanks to pre-screening tests would drop substantial…cuz hot girls…even when retarded get the fuck ahead and have it real easy….. Here she is for some bathing suit company….and on that note I am going to the beach to stare at local whores in their bikinis…to recruit like I was Victoria’s Secret…but instead of shooting for catalog…we’re just gonna shoot for my masturbation files…cuz I am in central america people…and still fucking posting cuz I am committed or a loser or a committed loser….
Celebrity Women Without Their Weaves Contrary to popular belief, women of all colors, shapes and sizes in Hollyweird wear weaves . Some do it for the look, some do it to protect the hair that they do have, and some do it simply to not have their bald-head scallywag status put on blast in front of the whole world. Either way, we rarely get to see what these ladies are actually working with underneath all of the glitz, glamour and 500 pounds of hair. Let’s take a look at some of the baddest weavy wonders in the game and exactly what they’re hiding…
Break out the balloons and the non-alcoholic drinks! It’s a celebration beyotches! A Gallery Of Rappers That Are 40 Years Old Like Eminem Eminem has come a LONG way. The “Hi My Name Is” rapper has gone from the underground, to the top of the charts, to the big screen, to rehab, and back again. When we think back on it, it’s actually pretty shocking that this guy is really 40 years old now. Long gone are the days of bleached-blonde hair, poppin vicodin, xanax, ecstasy, oxycotin, and washing it down with a bottle of vodka. Today, Marshall is clean, sober, and focused on being a dad to his daughter Hailie and his adopted daughter Alaina (“Laney” as he refers to her, is his ex-wife Kim’s twin sister’s daughter). As we thought about Marshall turning the big 4-0 we thought about the other 40 year-old rappers in the game today. Some of these MCs are rich and successful, and some of them are livin’ that struggle life HEAVY. Hit the flipper to take at some of Em’s aging, rhymes-spittin’ peers, and get caught up on what they are doing with themselves today. Images via WENN
