Never knew that the recently deceased North Korean dictator was a secret fan of trance and electronica. They don't call him 'IL' for nothing.

NBA Forever

TNT opened up a gorgeous new commercial for the start of the NBA season. It fuses footage involving new players with old-school footage, that  leaves us a goosebumps. It  sort of  gives you  a glimpse of what it would be like to see the league's superstars of today play alongside the stars of yesteryear. Lo and behold:



I just got chills watching the whole ad,welcome back NBA!

Coming Attractions: Wrath of the Titans

A decade after his heroic defeat of the monstrous Kraken, Perseus is attempting to live a quieter life as a village fisherman and the sole parent to his 10-year-old son, Helius. Meanwhile, a struggle for supremacy rages between the gods and the Titans. Dangerously weakened by humanity's lack of devotion, the gods are losing control of the imprisoned Titans and their ferocious leader, Kronos, father of the long-ruling brothers Zeus, Hades, and Poseidon. The triumvirate had overthrown their powerful father long ago, leaving him to rot in the gloomy abyss of Tartarus, a dungeon that lies deep within the cavernous underworld.

Perseus cannot ignore his true calling when Hades, along with Zeus's godly son, Ares (Édgar Ramírez), switch loyalty and make a deal with Kronos to capture Zeus. The Titans' strength grows stronger as Zeus's remaining godly powers are siphoned, and hell is unleashed on earth. Enlisting the help of the warrior Queen Andromeda (Rosamund Pike), Poseidon's demigod son, Agenor (Toby Kebbell), and fallen god Hephaestus (Bill Nighy), Perseus bravely embarks on a treacherous quest into the underworld to rescue Zeus, overthrow the Titans and save mankind.

Perseus is back and ready to kick more Titans ass. Warner Brothers just recently released the teaser trailer for "Wrath of the Titans", a two-minute look at the what happens when the Titans get loose of their supernatural prison.  Looks like it has gone all-out to include as much stuff as possible from the dramatic slow-mo of Perseus sheathing weapon to Perseus wrestling moves on a chained CGI beast. Not too mention Marilyn Manson's cover of Sweet Dreams (Are Made of This) in the background (terrible choice of song IMHO). The first movie sucked but this looks promising. Overall it's a great trailer but it looks like a video game  to me.

 
Wrath of the Titans will be released on March 30, 2012.

Coming Attractions: The Dark Knight Rises

 Probably one of the most anticipated movie next year.  Some say Anne Hathaway was a terrible choice for Selena Kyle, but I won't comment on that right now. Anyway here's the premise of the story,

Following the death of District Attorney Harvey Dent, Batman assumes responsibility for Dent's crimes in order to protect Dent's reputation and is hunted as a fugitive by the Gotham City Police Department. Eight years after the events of The Dark Knight, Gotham has recovered from the Joker's killing spree, and is experiencing a time of peace. A warning from the "enigmatic" Selina Kyle foreshadows a coming cataclysm, prompting Batman to return to the city where he must stop the villain Bane and his plans to destroy Gotham.-Wikipedia

Here's the official trailer:

A League of Our Own

With the release of the  revised NBA schedule, the excitement builds up for the upcoming  2011-12 NBA season. Just last weekend we held our NBA Fantasy Draft (now on it's second year) and it was a blast. The year was more fun compared to last year since most of the team owners were present during the live draft. Imagine the cramming we have to do just to analyze all the player stats before picking up on our pick. And just like last year I was the first pick again. At first I was a bit undecided if I take Lebron James again for the first pick over Kevin Durant. Just by merely looking at their stats, it's no brainer that Miami Heat superstar will be m first pick after all. Anyway here's how my roster goes:

1st Pick Lebron James  

Miami Heat,SF | Stats

Despite last season's team up with superstar Dwayne Wade and Chris Bosh, Lebron  still managed to average almost triple double in points,rebounds and assists department.

20th Pick Rajon Rondo 

Boston Celtics,PG| Stats

With all the rumors regarding the status of Rondo in Boston, I still believe that he will still end up in Celtics uniform. And with the selection of elite point guards in the earlier round (such as CP3,D-Will,Westbrook and current MVP Derek Rose) why not get one of the assist league leaders for my second round pick.

21st Pick Zach Randolph

Memphis Grizzlies,PF | Stats

One of the reason why my last year team ranks amongst the leader in rebounds would be Zach Randolph. A beast inside the paint with decent perimeter shooting. His availability in the third round is hard to pass up.

40th Pick Nene

Denver Nuggets,C | Stats

One of the most sought after free-agents for the season. This is a gamble on my part, as his team to suit up is still uncertain. Hopefully he'll contribute on rebounds, points and field goal percentage.

41st Pick JaVale McGee 

Washington Wizards,C | Stats

Although he is still incredibly raw and inconsistent, JaVale McGee displayed incredible upside with 10.1 points, 8.0 rebounds and 2.4 blocks per game in his third professional season. The 23-year-old is still improving and has a seemingly limitless ceiling.- Brian McKitish

60th Pick Nick Young

Washington Wizards,SG | Stats
Another free agent drawing interest from Chicago Bulls who's in need of a guy who can create shots to help Derek Rose in terms of scoring. Regardless if he stays or not with the Wizards, he's a young player with a big upside.

61st Pick Ray Allen

Boston Celtics,SG | Stats

He's older, but that doesn't mean he's on the decline just yet. Great players like Ray Allen can go from superstars to stars to good players slowly, compared to the rapid decline of some players that peak seven years into their career and are out of the league in another six. Allen will have another stellar season for a 36-year-old, especially with Rajon Rondo getting him three open looks a game.- Jesse Dorsey

80th Pick Aaron Afflalo

Denver Nuggets,SG | Stats

With the departure of JR Smith and Wilson chandler to China, this should be a banner year for Aaron Afflalo.

81st Pick  Tyrus Thomas

Charlotte Bobcats,PF | Stats

Charlotte has declared Tyrus Thomas a big part of their future with the five-year contract they awarded him, his best days ARE ahead. -Spencer Percy

100th Pick  Demarr DeRozan

Toronto Raptors,SG | Stats

Still has a long way to go before he's a well-rounded fantasy player, but he made incredible leaps as a scorer, increasing his average from 8.6 per game as a rookie to 17.2 per game as a sophomore. The Raptors have a vested interest in seeing their 2009 first-round pick succeed, and we should expect to see him on the court for 35-plus minutes per night, where he'll be an asset in points, steals and the percentages
-Brian McKitish

101st Pick  Jeff Teague

Atlanta Hawks,PG | Stats

Thanks to Kirk Hinrich shoulder injury, he was able to showcase his overall ability in the  second round playoff series against the Bulls.

120th Pick  Chase Budinger

Houston Rockets,SF | Stats

With the departure of Shane Battier, he should logged more minutes in the small forward position.

121st Pick  Vince Carter

Phoenix Suns,SG| Stats

Said to be waived by Suns when the free agency begins.
