The Fett

Javier Bardem = Bane

I could see Bane working in the next film if Nolan focuses more on Bane’s obsession with destroying Batman rather than the whole venom/steroid side of his character. Make him a deranged stalker of Batman that learns every single one of his weaknesses so that he can slowly chip away at Batman, soften him up so he can eventually destroy him. Azrael, could perhaps be worked in as well, if they decide to continue with the whole 'Batman imitators' thing they started in TDK.

Gotta say, that was probably the best season finale the show has ever had. The ending with Larry and the Blacks was just perfect. I'm anxious to see if Larry decides to come back for another season or if he wants to end the show on a high note.

So wait? Did Steve Carrell actually win best actor in a Comedy series or did Gervais win? Because I'm looking through the list of winners and Steve Carrell is listed as the winner. I thought that was just a joke?

The whole backbone of comedy is that comedians talk about their lives, personal experiences, observations they've made, etc. We now know that everything that comes out of Mencia's mouth is a farce. I don't understand how anybody could still enjoy his comedy act knowing that. The next time he's doing his standup act and he's starts off with "A funny thing happened to me the other day....", in the back of my mind, I would be thinking "did this really happen to him, or is he just ripping off some other comics story?".

Seems like the chick flicks/shows dominated this year. Ugly Betty, Grey’s Anatomy, Dreamgirls, Devil Wears Prada, etc. Aside from Borat and Scorsese, I didn’t like any of the winners.

I’m not saying he would go at half speed. I’m saying being on the dominant tribe with Yul, Becky, and Sundra on his side took a whole lot of pressure off of him to HAVE to win every single challenge. He could go to every challenge and think “hey, I’ll try my best, but if I don’t win, I still have a few people that have my back”. On the other hand, if at the merge, it was 8 Raro tribemembers vs Ozzy, that’s a completely different scenario. That’s a shitload of pressure for him to win every single challenge and know that if he loses a challenge, nobody has his back. Who knows how he would have responded with that type of pressure on him?

Yeah, they did have to win 2 challenges to get to the merge at 5-4, and my point is without Yul to help him, Ozzy would not have won those 2 challenges and he would be gone. It was a TEAM CHALLENGE afterall. Yul needed Ozzy to help win those team challenges just as Ozzy need Yul to win those challenges. Yul may not be as dominant physically as Ozzy, but he still was the second strongest competitor on the show. Mentally, however, Yul just blows Ozzy out of the water. Saying that Ozzy would dominate all the invidual challenges is a lot easier said than done. It a lot different winning individual challenges when you're on the dominant tribe and there isn't as much pressure for you to win every sinle challenge. Winning challenges when the odds are 8 vs 1 against you is a whole lot different than when the odds are 5 vs 4 in your favor.

I think you’re underestimating Yul on the team challenges prior to the merge. While he wasn’t as important to their team victories as Ozzy, he still was important to their success. Replace Yul with a weaker competitor like Jonathan, and no amount of heroics from Ozzy would have been enough to save them from losing as least once prior to the merge. You’re exaggerating how much Yul needed Ozzy. It’s nowhere near as close as much as Amber needed Rob. If Ozzy gets voted out, Yul still would have the hidden immunity idol, which he still could have used to get Jonathan to switch to his side, which would have made the 2 tribes even 4 vs 4 at the merger.

Yeah, Ozzy did all the work for Yul, which is EXACTLY why Yul deserved to win. He got somebody else (Ozzy) to do all his work for him and while Ozzy was busy getting food, winning challenges and putting a huge target on his back, Yul was busy building relationships with the jury members (Jonathan and Adam, in particular) and ensuring that he would get their votes in the end. He's the best strategist the show has had since Hatch.

There's always a brains vs brawn debate every season on Survivor. Do you reward the guy that does all the work or do you reward the guy that is able to manipulate everybody else to do all the work for him. To me, what Yul did was a lot more impressive. To be the guy responsible for booting almost everybody in the jury, and yet have them still respect you enough to vote you the winner is an extremely tricky thing to do. The only other time I can remember it happening is the first season with Richard Hatch. The challenge domination thing has been done before (Colby, Tom, Terry, etc.), so what Ozzy did just didn't do much for me.

I saw the apology last night and I at least respect that he spoke from his heart rather than simply reading a statement written by his publicist, no matter how awkward it made him look.

Why didn’t 'Strangers With Candy' get a wider release? Only 2 theaters played it, but the movie earned an average of $22,250 per theater.

If Dallas can beat the Spurs, who are basically a better version of the Heat, they should be able to beat the Heat. Shaq is not going to have a better series against the Mavs than Duncan had against them. Devin Harris and Jason Terry would run circles around Jason Williams and Gary Payton. Plus, Miami doesn’t have a player like Bruce Bowen or Shawn Marion that can pester Dirk defensively. Dirk would go off for 40 every game. If Phoenix makes it to the finals, it would be no contest. Miami would get destroyed. The 2 games these 2 played in the regular season were just embarrassing for the Heat. Giving up 47 point in one quarter. Shaq was gasping for air the entire time. The problem with Miami is that they’re not particularly good defensively, so they try to increase the tempo outshoot their opponents. Against defensive minded teams like Chicago, New Jersey, and Detroit, this may work. But not against the Suns and Mavs. The Heat would be playing right into their hands.

I think Terry has shown an incredible amount of restraint considering what he’s had to go through. He’s been an outcast from the get go surrounded by a Casaya tribe that has constantly been telling him he’s got zero chance of making it to the end, that if he makes a single mistake he’s a goner, attacking him like a pack of wolves every chance they get. It’s natural for someone that has had odds stacked against him to be a little arrogant after making it this far. If I had to listen to people constantly telling me I’m going to be the next one voted off, I sure as hell would be rubbing it in their face that they still haven’t able to get rid of me.

This new rule of allowing teams to cut players sucks. It rewards players for not living up to their contracts. Not only do they get paid in full, they get to go sign with whatever team they want, and get paid even more money.

The second season of Joan of Arcadia was painful to watch. Never have I seen a show take such a huge nosedive in quality. I went from really liking it to not being able to watch even 10 minutes of it. CBS made the right decision.

Looks like Arrested Development will live another season. Development Resurrected!

Mavs Fan For Life

Regardless of what the other contestants could have done, the fact still remains that she may have altered the competition by getting him to sing a song that he otherwise would not have sung without her help. Because of that, the FCC will not be happy with her.

There's a difference between giving contestants a tip or two and spending HOURS with a contestant, working with them on every aspect. What about the other contestants that aren't happy with the clothes selection. Do they get money on the side? The kid didn't even know who Randy Jackson was. When she told him about the Journey song that Randy loved so much, he said he had never even heard of Journey. Without Paula, he would have never sung the song and won Randy's approval.
