The Nightly Show Cancelled

So Larry Wilmore's reign of being the first black host on Comedy Central has come to the end.  Now the big reason that I read on ismyshowcancelled.com is that the show just didn't resonate with the audience.  The ratings has fallen and the network felt it was time to go.  

Now my thought was this and I talked this over with friends.  The show was probably removed due to complaints by people who either were never happy with a lot of what Wilmore was talking about or simply because a black man is hosting a talk show, but that was my thought.  

I will admit the show was going through some changes and I can see honor can throw people off, but I felt the show was finally stabilizing with some great segments, like Pardon the Intergration, Nightly Nightly and of course The Unblackening.  I am just saying the show should have at least finish the second season and then make a decision.  

This show was great and I am not happy to see it go.  Thank you Larry Wilmore.  You and Trevor were just what America needed, but I guess some out there just can't handle that much blackness.  I look forward to you guys next project.  

Some one should start a movement to have another network save the show or hire you to do a different talk show.  We will miss you all.

Movie to Marathon (Independence Day)

Well, I will be honest with you.   This has been a pretty rough day.  Not rough like a extreme issues that you can think of.  More like first world problems rough.   Has some problems that a couple I was able to solve and other that will have to wait until later.  Also, have a really major project to complete that now the timeline has been crunched down more making it a bit more stressful to deal with.   Oh well.  I always say I will make it through and I usually do.  

Anyways, normally, on July 4, I watch the apocalyptic film Independence Day by Roland Enmerich.  Today I am still going to play it, but this time it will act as white noise while I work on this project.   As I progress I made a discovery which helped me make a new decision.   I will make this single movie event into a marathon.  Along with ID4, I am going to watch The Day After Tomorrow and Godzilla.  What do these three films have in common?   They were all directed by Roland Emmerich.  I have been a fan of Roland since I saw Universal Soldier and Stargate.  The fan level was sealed with Independence Day.  

So there you go.   All there of those films will be played, as white noise, while I work on my project.   And yes, I will miss the fireworks, but there is just so much to do.   I do hope to see the ID4 sequel, Resurgence, very soon.  

Have a great and safe Independence  Day!!!!

Um Occupied... – Fails of the Weak #293

From Rooster Teeth, Makers of Red Vs Blue and RWBY.  Video Gamers from all over submit their crazy game fails to Achievement Hunter.  Most are just bizarre glitches that do happen from time to time.  Very hilarious and in my opinion, way too short.

Enjoy.........

Movie Review - The Martian

So I had my reservations about this film because as usual, if the preview (yes I said preview, not trailer) does not sell me then I most likely will not show interest in the movie.  My wife on the other hand was really for it and really wanted to see it.  I was not nice and kept blocking is seeing the film.  Well I finally broke down and decided to watch it and I was not disappointed.  

When I watched the Golden Globes, they place it in comedy/musical.  I understood why......in a way.  It had it's funny parts and it really kept my attention.   

I say definately check out this film.  You should enjoy it.

Grade: 7/10

Which One Doesn't Belong?

This was pretty fun.  I really enjoy the outdoor games or man on the street segments.

Movie Review - Deadpool

Oh my goodness!  I knew this film was going to be amazing, but this went well beyond my expectations.   The intro credits was wonderful.  The dialogue was too much. Even Colossus was very good.  Plus the soundtrack was fun.   A definite must see IMO, but please do not bring your kids, unless you just don't care.


Ryan Reynolds was, of course, the best choice for this and future projects!

GO SEE DEADPOOL!!!!!!
