Currently Obsessed With: Source Code

Eight minutes till the commuter train explodes. Eight minutes to discover the terrorists responsible and prevent further tragedy. Eight minutes to call your father one more time and reconcile. Eight minutes to fall in love. Eight minutes to come to grips with your situation and accept your fate. For army helicopter pilot Colter Stevens, those eight minutes must be spent well enough to last a lifetime or he'll have to repeat those eight minutes again........and again till he gets it right. Welcome to Duncan Jone's "Source Code." In an attempt to maintain the spirit of the film, I shall try to explain my fascination with this piece in eight sentences or less. Jones has crafted a nifty little time travel film......wait.....that's nine sentences already........damn......back to the source code.

Spartacus: Vengeance trailer.....oh yes.....there will be blood!

WOW...January come quick!

When Product Placement Attacks!

I'm actually pretty amused by this example

I know it's a necessary evil. I realize that corporate sponsorship helps foot some of the bills on a film production budget. I understand that many people actually use the products advertised on a daily basis, but I also hate it when product placement in movies is blatantly obvious. I should be able to just let it go..............laugh it off...........learn to accept it. But I can't always do that. There are instances where it works tremendously, but far too often, I just get distracted by shameless product plugs. Here's a few examples that really annoy me followed by one that I accept and love wholeheartedly. Stay tuned and I'll be back after these important messages!

Spielberg Reveals Cowboys & Aliens Sequels

Hot off his first ever appearance at San Diego Comic-Con, Steven Spielberg has been spilling the goods about his latest and greatest creations that will be gracing movie screens near you. GPS was granted an exclusive audience with the academy award winner and was simply stunned when he revealed not one.......not two.....but three sequels currently shooting simultaneously for the upcoming "Cowboys & Aliens" franchise. Jon Favreau is back on board directing the next exciting chapters in the sci-fi saga about other worldly invaders, and he happily joined his mentor during our presentation.

R.I.P. Amy & Forever 27 on Film

I admit to never really knowing her music well other than her famous "Rehab" song, but I appreciated the true talent that belonged to Amy Winehouse. She sadly couldn't get her demons in check and joins the "Forever 27" club alongside other music legends who left us all too soon. Hollywood has often tried to pay tribute to.....or cash in..... on the stars who burned brightly but shortly in the entertainment world with varying degrees of success.  Here are three notable attempts to give us a glimpse of life and death in the "Forever 27" club.

Warner Bros, New Line, Capital One Bank Seal Hobbit Marketing Deal.

Hot on the heels of the cast reveal and subsequent photo shoot in a giant gray room, Warner Bros. and New Line have excitedly announced a brand-new marketing campaign that will be launched alongside The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey when it releases next year. The cast and crew will partner with Capital One Bank to produce a series of television commercials within the next 6 months. 3-D was being discussed, but as of the time of this writing, nothing was decided for sure. I, for one, can't wait to hear Frodo ask, "What's in YOUR wallet?"

Captain America Punches Hitler In Epic Comic-Con Cosplay Throwdown!

It was pandemonium at the San diego Comic-Con as two cosplay titans duked it out for geek supremacy. Phil Cornbottom AKA Captain America took offense when a fellow cosplayer showed up at the popular convention dressed as Hitler. The security team at the convention center immediately stepped in to halt the melee and escort them off the grounds, but were so moved by Captain America's patriotic stand against the Third Reich, they decided to let the combatants settle it mano-a-mano.

@DRUNKHULK ENTER CELEBRITY REHAB WITH DR. DREW

"Celebrity Rehab" begins for @DRUNKHULK

@DRUNKHULK knew it was only a matter of time before his drunken posting on Twitter would get old. The gamma powered giant has recently been renowned for his intoxicated tweets, but has been feeling of late that he's hit rock bottom and in desperate need of a change. @DRUNKHULK has reached out to addiction medicine specialist Dr. Drew Pinsky and will be attempting to SMASH alcoholism on the new season of "Celebrity Rehab."

Best Dialogue Ever: Conan The Barbarian 1982

As far as Conan goes, there can be only one for me........Ahnold. Sure I'll check out the newest incarnation and hope that it reaches the awe inspiring heights of the 1982 John Milius classic, but nobody.........and I mean nobody will ever "burn you the way to paradise" the way Mr. Universe did. Now getting that out of the way I can present to you the newest series of posts on GPS "Best Dialogue Ever." I have to start with Conan.....it's the reason we're named Green People Soup. (fans of the film think about that if you want to know) Arnold didn't say much in the movie, but when he did, you had to be prepared to pay attention lest ye be eviscerated by his cold steel. Here he talks about what is best in life........listen closely or Crom will cast you out of Valhalla.

HULK Declines To Answer Questions Under Oath About Steroid Use

HULK has day in court

Preliminary hearings have begun in the super hero steroid abuse scandal that has been rocking the nation as of late, and the Incredible Hulk has refused to answer questions under oath. He was dressed sharply for his day in court, but refused to say anything that would incriminate fellow Avenger Club member Captain America.
