  • America’s SNIPER: Who’s laughing at Eastwood now?

    America’s SNIPER: Who’s laughing at Eastwood now?

    Dirty Harry’s days of box office glory aren’t gone, Eastwood is now able to brag about a global take of $500 million for his film AMERICAN SNIPER. He can also say it was the best of 2014..

    More:

    SNIPER has now surpassed The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part I to become the highest-grossing domestic film of 2014 with an estimated $337.2M take.. And with his weekends cash being counted the movie has surpassed the half a billion dollar make–a success given the controversy and concept behind the film..

    Warner Bros has bragging right too, touting the fact that that SNIPER is now the number one war film ever..

    This weekend’s box office was the lowest of the year so far..

    Last weeks not so stellar horror film THE LAZARUS EFFECT sunk even more by 50%.. The Lazarus Effect has earned $17.4 million. However considering the lackluster reviews the movie got and the typical second weekend slump horror flocks endure, this movie is performing better than some others..

  • SOS to NINJA TURTLES toy collectors (written only halfway in a joking manner)

    SOS to NINJA TURTLES toy collectors (written only halfway in a joking manner)

    Attention parents of Ninja Turtles fans or adults who collect children’s toys: Some disconcerting developments have been taking place at stores across Pennsylvania–stores that regardless of size or location seemingly have become wastelands in the hunt for new Ninja Turtles action figures.. Is anyone else having the same problems finding new action figures that are not yet in the family collection? I myself have witnessed broken hearts with children staring at empty racks at Walmarts, Toys r Us, and other related locations. Even more, the figures displayed are already the ones purchased..

    However, miracles can happen–one day my son found TIGER CLAW in a rather ghastly dollar store in a purposely unnamed hole in the wall town in Western Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania..

    A few possibilities..
    1) Viacom and Nickelodean are trying to create an artificial scarcity
    2) Chinese factories can’t stop workers from committing suicide as good as APPLE does, therefore the scarcity is real
    3) Parents buy up the new actions figures immediately when a truck delivers..

    And that is why I am asking for help: Any store workers, delivery drivers, or people with insider information, I need to know the day that trucks delivers new action figures. I need to also know the day–and time–that workers restock shelves..

    We need Rat King, Razhar, and Neutralizer. Nick also created new action figures.. probably ones I’ll just buy online..

  • Return to Flight 370: The expired battery theory

    Return to Flight 370: The expired battery theory

    The oddities and strange activity surrounding the vanishing Malaysian flight 370 only got weirder–again–today.. This breaking news report was carried by CNN but global sources also report:

    The battery for the locator beacon of the flight data recorder of Malaysia Airlines Flight 370 expired more than a year before the plane’s disappearance, an interim report on the investigation said Sunday, citing maintenance records.

    The report said that there was no evidence to suggest the battery was replaced and that while such a battery can operate past its expiry date, “it is not guaranteed that it will work or that it would meet the 30-day minimum requirement.”

    The battery on the plane’s other so-called black box, the cockpit voice recorder, was replaced as scheduled and remained within its expiry date, the report said.

    A riddle solved? The reason we can’t find a plane? Or a black box signified a reason for treason and a mass conspiracy that started a year prior?

    Theories will rage on this one..

  • Another historical site being destroyed in Iraq

    Another historical site being destroyed in Iraq

    The Associated Press reports in Saturday night runs:

    BAGHDAD (AP) — Iraqi officials in the northern city of Mosul said Saturday that militants with the Islamic State group have begun demolishing the ancient archaeological site of Hatra in northern Iraq in a push to rid its territory of symbols it says promote idolatry.

    The 2000 year old city began being destroyed hours ago with an explosion and the sights and sounds of bulldozers leveling the history that existed there..
