Movie Watch

The Last Airbender




M. Knight Shyamalan is back with a movie that is sure to be a summer blockbuster. Scheduled to release on July 2nd, and in 3D! From the looks of the trailer( you can watch the trailer at the link below) this movie has the feel of Crouching Tiger meets Signs...

Now if you like Kung-Fu movies like me, from the looks of the trailer, I bet this will be one of the all-time best!
Plot Summary:
Air, Water, Earth, Fire. Four nations tied by destiny when the Fire Nation launches a brutal war against the others. A century has passed with no hope in sight to change the path of this destruction. Caught between combat and courage, Aang (Noah Ringer) discovers he is the lone Avatar with the power to manipulate all four elements. Aang teams with Katara (Nicola Peltz), a Waterbender, and her brother, Sokka (Jackson Rathbone), to restore balance to their war-torn world.

Based on the hugely successful Nickelodeon animated TV series, the live-action feature film "The Last Airbender" is the opening chapter in Aang's struggle to survive.

Talladega Knights- (The Real Ricky Bobby)

So I had the wonderful opportunity to attend the NASCAR races at Talladega Super Speedway a few weekends ago. Now, I not going around sporting my favorite driver's jacket, or hat nor am I a slave to the sponsorship that occurs within NASCAR, but these race tracks are a sight to see. Just like the world's coolest stadiums or city skylines, the track makes an impression on you. I have been to three major tracks Atlanta, Charlotte, and now Talladega. The cool thing is that you don't have to be a typical NASCAR fan to appreciate what goes into the sport, and why it is one of the largest spectator sports in out country. Anyway, I got to hang out with Kris Dielman and Steve Gregory w/ the San Diego Chargers who were at the race.Anyway, I have listed some tracks for you to check out:
