Avatar Coming To Disney's Animal Kingdom


Okay, so Disney has partnered with the ever so conceited James Cameron to bring Avatar to Disney's Animal Kingdom.  Now anybody that knows me knows that I'm one of the biggest Disney fans around so I figured I needed to put my 2 cents in on this.

I'm all for Disney partnering with 3rd party companies.  I mean it gave us Star Tours and Star Wars Weekends, then we got the Indiana Jones ride and show.  Let's not forget my favorite 3rd party ride...

(This elevator goes directly too...The Twilight Zone)

So I'm not against them bringing a non-Disney thing into a Disney theme park.  I don't know if I'm okay with them devoting an entire land to Avatar though.  I'm sure Disney could do it justice and I think it'll be pretty cool to see the world of Avatar in person but I wonder how much staying power Avatar has.

I mean if you asked me I couldn't tell you a lot of facts about Avatar.  I mean I know the main guy's name is Jake and they look for Unobtainium (the most creative name for a rare mineral/gem/rock/whatever it is)  but other than that I really couldn't tell you much more.  (They turn into blue people and try to save a tree.)  I think Disney should've gone a different route.  I mean you have lands in Animal Kingdom devoted to different areas of the world and then you have Dino-Land which is okay cause they're proven to exist.  There was suppose to be an area devoted to mythical creatures but they scrapped it so we could go to Mickey's Cabana Land as I like to call it.  But does Avatar have the power to pull in people like Star Wars does?  I don't think so.  I think the new land will pull in people now and hopefully it will when the sequels come out but I don't think it's that popular of a movie.  I mean it's a big movie and everyone saw it but nobody talks about Avatar or wants to watch it over and over again like Star Wars.  If they had Avatar weekend at Animal Kingdom then I don't think people would go.

Overall I think Disney missed a major opportunity and I think if they were going to put a new land in Animal Kingdom then they should have went with the mythological creature land that's been on the back burner since the beginning of Animal Kingdom.  I think it's going to be much more popular than Avatar in the long one unless the sequels do just as well as the original then they might have something on their hands but as of right now I think the Avatar land will be just something else in the park, not a big attraction.

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!


 
HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!!!

Who Is Kim Kardashian?

Did I spell her name right?  Honestly what does she do?  I just made a Google+ account and she's my "friend" or whatever that's suppose to mean.  And then I'm looking at Youtube Videos and I keep having to sit through adds of her yelling at someone saying, "Why do you find out your husband's in another country by Twitter?"  (Or something like that)

Honestly who cares?  What does this girl do?  Does she act/sing/...

...Oh, she's sort of hot and rich.  I understand now.

Where's Naomi?

Ok WWE, I've got one big question about this Divas division...well besides the fact that it's never paid attention to and I'm sick of this whole, "Beth and Natalya making people cry" storyline.  Seriously?

Where's Naomi?

(See she's even wondering what's up)

This girl has got the tools to make every Diva on this roster look bad.  (Or good depending on how you see it) Just take a look at a these matches :


Why has WWE waited this long to bring Naomi up?  All the NXT Season 3 Divas are on the roster some way but Naomi is still chilling in FCW.

I've heard rumors that she's traveling with them and there was a pic Zack Ryder posted on Twitter that saw a pic of Naomi in the official WWE Program :


Hopefully she can debut soon and actually breathe life back in this division but honestly I'm not sure if that's possible.  Here's hoping!

The Taco Bell Triple Steak Stack

Triple Steak Stack
It's a chicken flat bread sandwich, but filled with steak! (Or whatever it is Taco Bell puts in their food)

This little sandwich packs in a big 690 calories and a scary intake of 1950mg of sodium. But is it delicious? You freaking bet it is!!

Taco Bell is the Dr. Frankenstein of Mexican food but holy crap is it good! This creation is just the flat break filled with "steak" and 3 different cheeses.

I did however try this monster of a sandwich behind a man who ordered 3 of them. I thought it would be fun to see what this man just filled himself with :
2070 calories, 90 grams of fat, 39 grams of saturated fat, 36 grams of sugar, and a insanely scary 5850 grams of sodium. I found a picture of him just a week after this :


But just because you should, go out and try one! They are pretty freaking good, just pretty freaking bad for you.

J-Lo False Advertising?


Ok, so everyone who's been around a television has seen J-Lo's new Fiat 500 commercial where she drives it around shadyish neighborhood streets and talks about how this is her inspiration and all that crap...(If you love it so much then why didn't you stay there? Just saying, if you're still Jenny from the Block then...)

But turns out that J-Lo didn't actually go to the streets that she loves so much. E! online reports that body double did the driving and J-Lo just did the driving shots.

Now if you're like me then you're thinking, "A body double for a celebrity endorsing a car that nobody really wants, no way!" (Seriously, who went running out to be a freaking Fiat? Not me.) (Oh, a Fiat 500 Cabrio, excuse me, I forgot to care)

But when E! and others are claiming that J-Lo is committing false advertisement? Really? Did Britney drink a crap ton of Pepsi? Is Little Richard eating Zaxby's chicken by the bucket? The only person I have faith in is Flo The Progressive Girl.

(Buy some car insurance or I'll cut you)

But am I shocked that J-Lo had the body double drive around on the streets? No. Why? Cause she's a rich celebrity and they probably approached her saying, "You don't even have to drive it around...," or something like that. Who knows how much money she took in for it.

For anyone that would like to research this nail biting issue further here's the link to the E! News ariticle : http://www.eonline.com/news/Car_Trouble_Jennifer_Lopez_Fakes_Fiat_Commercial_With_Help_From_Bronx_Body_Double/276684


King of the Hill - I Miss Thee!

I really miss King of the Hill. I know it's in reruns but it's still one of my favorite TV shows. The character work might be some of the best in the history of TV. There's really not been one time that the show has had a character say/do something that's not them.


Plus it really irks me that the reason it was cancelled was to make room for the Cleveland Show which is the most God-Awful show I've ever seen...Well maybe not, I have seen Bob's Burgers and Allen Gregory. Okay, changed my mind, Allen Gregory is the most God-Awful show ever made. I've seriously never wanted to rip out my eyes and tear off my ears at the same time. (Guess there's a first time for everything) (Sorry Jonah Hill, get fat and funny again)

I did see this and it's pretty accurate...

But oh yeah, back to King of the Hill. I will miss the show. It's really good but I don't see it coming back just because I don't see them recasting Brittany Murphy, she was pretty perfect.

(playing sad song for King of the Hill)
