Stacy Francis Singing Video X-Factor Purple Rain (Stacey)

Meet Stacy Francis, my new X-Factor favorite. No confidence? Are you kidding me?! This is the best rendition of this song ever recorded!

So what if she cried at the end... so did the judges... and so did I! She's phenomenal. See (and HEAR) for yourself!

Three HOT NAKED MEN do Yoga Together

Yoga 23Image by o0bsessed via FlickrOMG! This is so funny.

I was looking for a new yoga video, that would inspire me, on Netflix Instant Play... and I found this:

THREE NAKED MEN doing yoga together on a blanket in the desert.

It says "For Men AND Women" but I don't know. I just had to laugh. I think you will too.

Check it out. I thought it might be Bikram's style because it's called "HOT Yoga"... but no. ; )

TV Show Review: "Warehouse 13"

In 1998 Reed Hastings founded Netflix, the lar...Image via WikipediaHow the "Heck" did I miss this series?! It's "The X-Files" meets "National Treasure". You've got your gorgeous girl and the guy... with the charisma of Mulder but also some Comedy Relief. I'm lovin' it.

It's available now on Netflix Instant Play. Can't guarantee anything, though. With all the new changes to Netflix, I must say, I am not that happy. Some shows I was watching on Instant Play are not now available. Unless, of course, you pay the extra $7.99 for the DVD.

Let me tell you, once you've adapted to Instant Play, waiting for the DVD and then being responsible for sending back... is sooooo fricken Old School. Plus, shows that used to be streaming are now available on DVD only. AS IF... that is some incentive to get us to pay the extra  $7.99!

So the CEO says, 'Well, it's a business model that worked in the past'. Who gives a ....? If we're "Streamers" give us access to ALLLLLL the Streaming!!! (I'd be willing to pay extra, DUH.)

Ugh.

Anyway, as I was saying. If you have access to this series it's well worth your time. Not as serious as The X-Files (but the gorgeous girls just don't stop coming...as in Head Cylon...).

Anyway...

It's a whole lotta fun.

Martial Arts Movie Reviews: The Comedy "Kung Pow: Enter the Fist"

Jackie Chan began his film career as a stuntma...Image via WikipediaWho doesn't love Kung Pao Chicken?! Wish I had me some right now.

"Kung Pow: Enter the Fist"...

This one took me by surprise. I was laughing from the opening scene... "The Chosen One!". Very funny. Definitely a satire. Satire means CLICHE' and this is as cliche' as it gets (plus a few unexpected moments... like the "So cute!" scene). For those of you that have loved the dubbed Chinese martial arts genre for a while now, this one's a real kick. Get it?

Of course, this is a take on Bruce Lee's "Enter the Dragon", which makes it all the more fun.

I'm not a big fan of animated babies, but the sound effects associated with it make it hilarious. And then the chinese  baby grows up to be a white guy? LOL. Pure silliness. And the battle of the tongues. It gets a little stale through the middle but don't miss the Kung Fu Cow.

And the belated bark? OMG. I laughed so hard.


Favorite Lines:
"Your story makes my heart heavy and my prostate weak.""

"And then he killed the dog... I now officially know too much."

"I am a man of many needs. You will now receive the fist of fury." Fortunately, the little ones will receive this an an over-sight.

As martial artists, we have a tendency to take ourselves much too seriously anyway. So a little comedy relief is in order. I highly a suggest "Kung Pow: Enter the Fist". Why not have a fun Martial Arts Movie Night at your club? The kids, especially, will love it.

"Frozen" Movie Review

Chairlift in Praz de Lys-Sommand, Haute-Savoie...Image via WikipediaHere in Salt Lake City, Utah we have at least 7 ski resorts within 20 minutes of downtown Salt Lake City.

Been skiing many times. In fact, broke both my neck and my leg downhill skiing aka Alpine (now I only do Cross-country aka Nordic), not on the same day but in the same month! The worst part was having to miss Karate for a year.  

This movie? Wow, so much deeper than I expected. So realistic, emotionally. But from the first moment I was thinking, 'What would McGiver do?' There's always a way out. Always.

Like tying all their garments together (despite the cold) to get a closer drop to the ground). They could put them right back on. People rarely survive a two story drop (20 feet) but often a one story drop.

In any case, kudos to writer and director Adam Green. Awesome work.

Here are some awesome real-life threads on Chair Lift strandings and what to do in case of an emergency:

"The Fly" x 3 Movie Review Marathon

The FlyImage by ProfessorMortis via FlickrI am having a blast today with a "The Fly" marathon (isn't it about time for another one? After all it's been more than 20 years.). I'm sure somewhere in the world, teleportation is about to become a reality.

Start YOUR marathon with the 1958 Vincent Price version. I hadn't seen it since I was a kid. What a CLASSIC!

Then there's the 1986 one with the gorgeous Geena Davis in the prime of her life and Jeff Goldblum (we really did think he was sexy at the time). It added the element of GROSSNESS (I remember closing my eyes the first time).

Oh, dude, what are you doing? You're going to get spit upon by acid and devoured! OOhhhh!!!! Be prepared. It's the best!

But what I love most about this movie is that it's a remake (of a classic) yet it's COMPLETELY DIFFERENT! Bravo to whoever was involved in the writing. It too, is a Classic in its own right. It is just as much a Masterpiece as the original. My vote? The best "Mad Scientist" movie ever!

The final scene... and then you laugh. Just brilliant.

After that comes the 1989 version with Eric Stolz and that cute little Daphne Zuniga. They call it "The Fly II" but it's really "The Fly III". The face-peeling's pretty good but, I have to say that the monster himself is the least believable of the three.

Otherwise very nicely done, right down to the soundtrack with K.D. Lang.
and it's the only one that brings tears to your eyes.
