So This is how I thought the fights would go down.
George Sotiropoulos will beat Joe Lauzon via Decision
Phil Davis will beat Tim Boetsch via TKO
Gerald Harris will beat Maiquel Falcão via KO
Matt Hughes will beat B.J. Penn via I am going with something crazy a SUB
Lyoto Machida will beat Quinton Jackson via Decision.
I am going with Lyoto Machida because I really think he will be to fast but I want Jackson to win badly. so if jackson doesn't win I will be happy because I got my pick right and if he win I will be happy because he KO'd Machida again.
And this is how they went down
George Sotiropoulos beat Joe Lauzon via Sub in the 2nd
Phil Davis beat Tim Boetsch via sub 2nd
Maiquel Falcão beat Maiquel Falcão via Decision
Bj Penn Ko'd Matt hughes in 27 SECONDS!
Quinton Jackson beat Lyoto Machida vis Split Decision.
Let me say that I have it 2 round to 1 in favor of jackson I thoung that jackson clearly won the first while in the 2nd it was pretty even but jackson did get a takedown so I gave him the 2nd aswell. and machida got the third. I don't know why machida was so shocked when he lost.

UFC 121 Outcomes *The Night Of Decision*
UGH this was a horrible night when you pick fighters and none of them win and I mean NONE win it makes for a long night even more so when EVERY FUCKING FIGHT IS A decision... But I did go with some stupid picks I should have played it safe and went with the guys that I thought could grind out a win. On with the card
Now my thoughts going in was
1) Gabriel Gonzaga will Ko Brendan Schaub
2) Tito Ortiz will beat Matt Hamill via Decision
3) Paulo Thiago will beat Diego Sanchez via whatever hoprefully sub (two ppv and my 3 least favorite fighters!)
4) 85% chance Shields wins BUT I am going witha wrench having Martin Kampmann beat Jake Shield somehow.
5) Brock Lesnar will beat Cain Velasquez via tko. Cain can only win on his feat he might be able to pull off what carwin couldn't
and lets get this over with:
1) a Heavyweight fight that went the distence....Brendan Schaub beat Gabriel Gonzaga via Decision. At the end Schaub said that hes happy to beat a top 10 ranked fighter.....:| If hes top ten then the real top ten must be in the negatives. He was top ten before randy kicked his ass... how the fuck is Gonzaga even in the top 20 hell if he not already his next lose he will be cut...yup top 10 and this happened again!
2) Matt Hamill Beat Ortiz via Decision. And after the fight Hamill said that hes happy that he can beat a top 10 ranked fighter....who ortiz? really? hasn't won since 2008? top 10...on whose fucking list? I don't understand that it makes no sense he beat a guy with THREE FUCKING LOSES IN A ROW! machida, griffen, and HIM top 10 off of 3 loses really this just makes the sport look bad...
3) ugh Diego Sanchez Slugs his way into a win on Thiago via guess what ANOTHER Decision. And the worst thing is he thanked Jesus for the win... WTF DID JESUS COME DOWN AND BLIND HIM why the fuck do fighters or anything thank there god it had nothing to do with that. This is one of the reason I hate Diego he works his ass of and then throws away all his hard work by saying Jesus let him win...then why train why have people in your couching you!!!
4) Shields beats Kampmann somehow,,,IF..IF! shields gets GSP OFF OF THIS FIGHT....then UFC has hit rock bottom! He fucking gassed in round 2 and had a hard time taking him down. was in crazy amounts of sub attempts and got kneed in the face a few times. this didn't look that the "Amazing" fighter that was suppose to take the belt from gsp. before the fight I was worried that shields could beat gsp but after this fight I think hardy was a harder fight for gsp OHHH BURN!
5) and ya Cain TKO Brock. going in 0-4 I called that Cain was going to win my luck just wasn't there maybe had I picked Cain Brock would have won but ill never know. so I guess Brock can fight Kongo or Mir and big nog. I am thinking they will get the Mir Brock 3 fight now...watching this fight I felt like Brock was finally shown to be all hype it felt like he had no talent and his whole thing is just his size because Cain stopped his take downs and even took him down. I just saw something in Brock I don't know what but I knew he lost. ALSO if you watch any of his fights HE HATES BEING PUNCH IN THE FACE I saw this with randy when he punched Brock in the face Brock went for the take down which is a big problem anyway
This fight card I guess could have been great had you pick schaub,Hamill,Diego,shields, and Cain (which 4 of the 5 where favorites right? Cain being the only non favorite.) you would might have had a blast?

5) Bisping won
Over all this fight was just dumb I can not get into cards that are not live known that the world already knows who win just ruins the fun of it. I love jumping out of my set with the rest of the world that's watching the ppv. anyways after the dumb draw with lame ass I scared to do anything kongo I finally gave up and decide to do something that was more enjoyable so...I cleaned my room.

Something I will be getting
Image is from dvdaf.com I ordered this today which I should be getting before December which is Metropolis - Limited Edition - The Masters of Cinema Series (147 Minute Version) (Steel Book). It contains the DVD and bluray versions of the film along with a 56 page book all in a nice steel book. I have never seen the film before so I am looking forward to it. Also I have never seen a silent film all the way through so this will be either fun or painfully. I do find the trailers of the film to be wonderful. I really like the feeling that the trailer gives. So I plan on taking some pictures of it if I can once I get it.

I am really looking forward to this free ppv for one reason it has two of my least favorite fighters fighting guys that I think will kill them. Heres the card.
James Wilks vs. Claude Patrick
Cheick Kongo vs. Travis Browne
John Hathaway vs. Mike Pyle

Strikeforce: San Jose Thoughts
So lets get into it heres the card:
Nick Diaz vs. KJ Noons
Sarah Kaufman vs. Marloes Coenen
Josh Thomson vs. Gesias Cavalcante
Tyron Woodley vs. André Galvão
And this is how it will go down:
1) André Galvão will beat Tyron Woodley via Decision
2) Josh Thomson will beat Gesias Cavalcante via Decision
3) Sarah Kaufman will beat Marloes Coenen via TKO. One thing... Why the Fuck! does Marloes Coenen get a title match she comes into strikeforce off of a lose and wins her first fight which the one fight win streak earns her a title match with Cristiane Santos. Which she got her ass kicked! after that she drops in weight and Once again OFF A LOSE gets a title shot for Sarah Kaufman title. Not saying she can't win or that shes bad but she hasn't proven herself to fight for the title. It makes the belt look bad. I really don't think women right now should have titles because there really isn't enough women in the sport to have titles. like who in the women's mma can beat Santos...no one shes going to have the title and defeat 10 other women and go down in history for most title defenses for women because there was no competition at the time. I am not saying they shouldn't get titles I am just say there need to be more women in the sport to warrant belts. This match shows that, they don't have anyone else that is good to fight Sarah and so they have to give it to Coenen who should have won at least 3 more fights in that weight class before being given a title shot. I just hate it when a fighter hasn't shown that they should be in a title fight. For example I don't think Cain Velasquez should get a title fight. I was wanting Cain Velasquez Vs Junior dos Santos for the number one contender BUT ufc wants it to be Cain Velasquez VS Brock and then winner of that will fight Junior dos Santos which then who after that rematches?
Bottom line NO one off a lose should get a title match! or even off of one win.
anyways here's the main event
4) Nick Diaz will beat KJ Noons via KO

The Red Shoes #44
Watched this film about a week ago and I have to say, a year ago I would have never bought a film called The Red Shoes and with that said I love this movie. Once I saw the little bit on Criterions site for it, I had to check this film out. The lead actress does a great job in the movie same with the two male actors. I loved the Red Shoes play that is in the film and would love to see it live. The music, makeup and costumes where all great.
I would say that everyone should own this blu ray the picture and sound are just out of this world. Criterion went out of their way to give use this amazing transfer and hopefully with this dvd release this film will live for ever. The only thing that makes me sad is that most kids now a days won't ever watch this film.
Special Features:
*Introductory restoration demonstration with filmmaker Martin Scorsese
*Audio commentary by film historian Ian Christie, Featuring interviews with stars Marius Goring and Moira Shearer, cinematographer Jack Cardiff, composer Brian Easdale, and Scorsese
* Audio recording of actor Jeremy Irons reading excerpts from Powell and Pressburger's novelization of The Red Shoes
*Profile of "The Red Shoes" a documentary on the making of the film. featuring interviews with members of the production team
*video interview with director Michael Powell's widow, editor Thelma Schoonmaker Powell, the film, and the restoration
*gallery of items of rare publicity still and behind the scenes photos
*Gallery of items from Scorsese's personal collection of The Red Shoes memorabilia
*"The Red Shoes" Sketches, an animated film of Hein Heckroth's painted storyboards, with the Red Shoes ballet as and alternate angle
*Audio recording of Irons reading the original Hans Christian Andersen fairy tale "The Red Shoes"
*Trailer
*And Finally a Booklet featuring and essay by critic David Ehrenstein and a description of the restoration by UCLA film archivist Robert Gitt

Revanche #502
I watched Revanche about 3 weeks ago and I loved this film. It builds and builds all the way till the end when you get a really intense scene I really loved the ending I sat forward in my character with my elbow on my desk just waiting to see what was going to happen.. There is so little talking in this movie that it plays like a silent film and uses the characters and land to show the mood and feeling. The blue ray picture and sound was presented beautifully.
When watching the film I found myself hating the cop for what he had done but by the end of the movie I found myself on the cops side. I loved the movie as a whole there was no part of it that I thought was boring or dragged. The forest sequences looked great on film.
Special Features are:
* Video interview with Spielmann
* The making of Revanche a half hour documentary shot on the set
* Foreign Land, Spielmann award-winning student short film, with introduction by the director
* U.S. Theatrical trailer
* A booklet featuring an essay by critic Armond White
When watching the film I found myself hating the cop for what he had done but by the end of the movie I found myself on the cops side. I loved the movie as a whole there was no part of it that I thought was boring or dragged. The forest sequences looked great on film.

UFC 119 Thoughts
Okay so just a few things first before I get into the main card. Mark Hunt is fighting on the under card as the first fight of the night. Now I would love to see him on spike TV live or even on the main card! I am hoping he will win his fight. One more thing I hope that Joey Beltran knocks Matt Mitrione's ass the fuck out. I also hope Joe doerksen destroys CB. Anyways now that I got that out of the way on with the card!
Melvin Guillard vs. Jeremy Stephens
Guillard will KO Stephens in the 2nd round (Can Guillard be getting a title shot soon?)
Sean Sherk vs. Evan Dunham
I am going to go with Dunham on this. I think he will get a sub or a Decision
Matt Serra vs. Chris Lytle
This is a hard fight both have KO power and Lytle has been amazing lately and has never been Ko'd tko's or subed (hes lost twice due to cut). So Lytle will beat Serra
Antonio Rogerio Nogueira vs. Ryan Bader
I hate this match up because Lil Nog will lose to Bader. But I am going to Nog I don't know how or even think so but I can hope can't I?
Frank Mir vs. Mirko Filipović
Mir's size will be to much for cro cop to handle I think. lets just hope he doesn't get nutted 4 times. (Cro cop vs Overeem) I think Mir will Tko cro cop in the 1st.

Here is the card and who I think will win:
1) Hiroyuki Takaya vs. Chase Beebe
I think Takaya will beat Beebe Via KO in the first

I really like Omigawa so I think he will beat Escovedo
3) Mitsuhiro Ishida vs. Akiyo Nishiura
Ishida will win via decision
4) Kazushi Sakuraba vs. Jason Miller
Sad to say I think that Sakuraba won't be able to sub miller so I am picking Miller via sub?

Tokoro will win Via sub
8) Gegard Mousasi vs. Tatsuya Mizuno
Mousasi will win via tko
UPDATE
9) Ikuhisa Minowa vs. Satoshi Ishii

Devil (2010)
I just wanted to quickly say what I think the ending might be! I don't like to say a movie is crap with out seeing it so I am not saying that. When I saw the last airbender trailer I said to myself and my brother that This trailer looks so good that this movie has to be crap and it was. I have yet to see it.
So my 1st guess is they are going to hell in a elevator.
my 2nd is that being in the tight space they go crazy
3rd and final THE ELEVATOR IS.....ALIVE DUH DUH DUUUUUH!!!!!!!
ya I really think its the 3rd one. Now after the wind being the killer can't you see a angry elevator that wants blood because I can. Now I have not gone to the movie theater since Friday the 13th remake and If it was a killer Elevator I think I would HAVE to go.
The thing that makes no sense if its not like this once was a solid wall that this one day a magical elevator appeared without anyone knowing and then some people get in and they die. So why the hell is this happening all of the sudden? shouldn't people be getting stuck in that elevator since it was? I just find it funny how these people piss Mr.Elevator off so much that hes wanting blood. I just have so many unanswered question that I am sure I will get half assed answers.
oh oh Maybe the Elevator sees dead people and so the people in the elevator are all ready dead....Spooky!!!

Assassin Creed
Now I have finished this game before but I had missed 3 achievements which are. All the Templar's, all the scene glitches and talking the Lucy. So I played it again. I forgot how much this game pisses me off. Its a great game but when I am trying to run away from the guards the game doesn't always do what I want it to do for example. I was being chased and so I went to on of the hide outs on the roofs so I jump on to the ledge to leap behind the sheet but all of a sudden I leap to the other side and now I am in red again so I jump down and start running again. I go to the ground turn yellow find a bench and I use it to jump over a fence I turn red again. This happened not often but when It did I yelled at my TV in anger. Now I don't know if its just me but that boat part where your jumping from boat to boat really shows how shitty the 360's joy stick is I think I am pointing it straight but nope I am NE direction so my character kills himself.
All of that aside this game is solid and really fun I have beaten it twice which I can't say I do often. I HATE the end it is the biggest piece of shit ever! Here's the ending THERE IS NO ENDING! ya that's right its the same crap that's a the start. you get out of the machine walk into you room look at the wall end!.

Star Wars: The Force Unleashed
I played Star Wars the force unleashed the other day and for what it is it wasn't bad. When you make a game where you can break pretty much everything it is really hard to have those broken objects not glitching. On the first level the part where you are using the wings as lifts to get up to the higher platform, I have seen the bridge here flipping upward kill everyone on it. Now I was listen to podcast at the time of playing this game so I had it muted which if you play this game muted it will make no sense what so ever. The powers are fun to use and most of the achievements are easy. All I have to do it the hardest difficulty and I can't I must really suck because I get killed in seconds. I ran through it collecting all the holo things and beat it in a afternoon. Its not bad its just nothing that stands out.
Fallout 3
So I played fallout 3 the other day because I have been in a mood to try and 100% achievements on my 360. Meaning that all of the achievements for this game are offline I am able to get them. Now I had played fallout early and never really liked it. I always thought it was stupid how the whole V.A.T.S thing worked. Its like they made it blood splattering so people forgot that it is auto aim. I actually played the whole game with out the vats just because I didn't like them. If I had used them I would have felt like I was taking the easy way out. I found the main story line to be really short and underwhelming for the "hype" this game has. I also had all the dlc so I played all that as well.
Out of all the DLC I found Mother ship to be the best. I loved how it looked and it felt like I was playing a 60's space movie. Moria's wasteland survival Guide quest line was the best part of the none dlc game. So as you can tell the characters that ended up being a little crazy (Moria and the little girl) really sold me on the game. With out those two characters this game to me would have been a chore. The sound effects are great and I like the way the world and characters looked.
Now for the bad this game is glitched as hell which is weird because my brother played the same disc and he said he never had any problems. As for me it froze every 2 hours which was really pissing me off towards the end. Also sometimes when I would look at the pit boy it was like someone was shining a light on it. There was one time when one the the bad guys walked through a wall. Just like mother ship was my favorite Broken Steel was my least followed closely by Point look out. The main story line was really lacking in any emotional feel for me. I didn't care what happened to the world of fallout, once your father dies there is no one else that you are connected to. I love that you can build weapons but 9! that's just stupid whats that point of putting in make able weapons when you are only going to put in 9.
I guess I will be playing new Vegas but I will not be buying it my brother has it pre ordered so when hes done with it I might check it out. I have heard that there is more weapons to be made in it and that the aiming system is apparently better as in FPS style but we will see. As of now I have 100% achievements for Fallout 3.

dvd run down
So there's some movies that I have gotten a while ago but for some reason haven't written anything about.

To start off I got Vanishing point a while ago, has to be over a month now. I found this movie to be rather enjoyable. It is a story about Kowalski who is transporting a car from Denver to San Francisco. He gets stoned from time to time and through most of the movie he is being chased by cops. shortly into the movie you get the feeling he really doesn't give a crap if he makes it or not. The music is great and Kowalski ends up talking to a magical guy through the radio. The radio DJ tell him the polices locations and where not to go. If you like just straight up joy rides check this movie out. For a 105min film I doubt Kowalski is even out of the car for more then 30mins during the film.
Now I watched this movie about 3 days ago. I was shocked to find this movie at future shop. They also have James Cameron's Piranha 2 but I didn't pick it up yet. I wanted to watch this movie because I think that you should always watch the original film before watching the remake. So with that you can tell that this film was made over 30 years ago. There are some plot holes and dumb scenes. When the piranhas attack it's pretty lack luster. Most of the attacks are what looks like a hunk of meat being attacked. My DVD is the Roger Corman version and has a wicked cover of a chick in a red swimsuit trying to reach the surface of the water while Piranhas try to eat her, It came with both covers. If you like old school horror films which I do check this movie out its rather enjoyable.
I also got the Ring on DVD which the film is not bad. But the main thing is that I found the sound effects like jump scare sounds are louder then them talking which I HATE! Reason is I turn it up to hear what the hell is going on and then they close a door and I jump 5 feet into the air screaming like a girl. Was the door scary no not really, which then makes all the other scares or jump scares meaningless. So I couldn't really enjoy the movie because of random sounds that kept exploding my sound system. The movie is about a women watching a tape and then getting a call telling her she will die in 7 days.
So when this movie came out I wanted to watch it because I thought the cover looked cool. A while latter I learned that this movie was dumb as hell also I watched a tiny bit of it on TV but something better came on so I never watched all of it. So I found it for really cheep I think $4 and wanted to see for myself and... ya this movie is crap. You end up not caring for anyone in this movie. There was only one person that I wanted to live and that was Thomas Jane because I liked him in punisher. I thought the part where all the animals are running to be cool not knowing what I was about to see. But when that worm thing showed up I thought okay this can be okay and then it just feel off a cliff...right when I saw the alien I thought really...that's it I was expecting a thing ripe off.
Back in the day horror films actually went for atmosphere rather then just having the sound that is so loud it makes you jump do all the work. I tend to look at films like TCM, Halloween, even Friday the 13th. Now I am not saying all jump scares are bad but a cat meowing shouldn't scare anyone or a dog barking. One thing that pissed me off about the new Friday the 13th remake was the dog scene. When the main character is standing at the door seeing if anyone is there all of a sudden a dog barks and attacks the door. So what the main character didn't hear the pissed of dog coming at him till he was already attacking the door?
I will say that everyone should check out Guillermo Del Toro don't be afraid of the dark movie it is looking really good (watch the trailer). Also make sure you keep tabs on Frankenstein which is another movie hes working on.
