HOW ABOUT THIS FOR A THOUGHT “INCEPTION IS A MUST SEE”

2010-07-17T12:20:00.001-04:00

A top is spinning and you don’t know if its going to tip over and stop or continue its revolutions…

This is the idea that holds Dom Cobb (Leo DiCaprio) together throughout the events that unfold in the epic masterpiece “Inception” by writer/director/producer extraordinaire Christopher Nolan, the scribe who has brought the Batman franchise back to life.

Inception is a story of a man looking for redemption at all costs risking everything to find himself closer to a sense of reality that has long been lost to him. The only indication of reality is in his spinning top which he uses to make sure he isn’t dreaming but soon the truth of even that reality should come into question after viewing this piece of art. In this articulately paced action drama you constantly find yourself questioning if what you are watching indeed makes any sense at all yet most of the time I found myself at the edge of my seat hoping that whatever act of desperation by Cobb and his team of “extractors” take on, that it is an act that will reward him for his leap of faith. The story is complex with multiple levels of intrigue and the supporting cast contribute wonderfully with many varied personalities often clashing but coming together for one goal; to plant a single solitary thought deep in the mind of a powerful man that will grow into a series of events that will literally change the course of that mans life and that of the people he is involved with. This level of complex story with mind blowing special effects, the majority of which I will have investigate the laws of physics to determine its engineering, has not been seen since the first screening of The Matrix. And while there are many similarities between Inception and The Matrix, this film is unlike any I have ever seen before. What’s even more interesting is how in the world did Nolan create such a threaded maze like this film and not question reality himself although in the end the only real question left is if you want the top to continue spinning or not.

I highly recommend viewers to drink some coffee and have a good meal before hand because you will not want to blink for a second on this one.

If Street Fighter was a HS drama on the CW…

Ken is the bully, Guile is the rebel bad boy, Blanka is the emo kid that doesn’t fit in and C.Viper is pregnant! With every high school drama cliché in the book available coupled with an awesome sound track, I’m hoping they take this idea and run with it! All I have to say is that Dhalsim takes the cake!!

Props are also in order to kotaku for finding this vid and the crew who made the short; they have finally beaten hollywood to the race of finding a cast that actually look like the characters!!

Why Men Cheat…

2010-04-19T17:38:00.001-04:00

So I'm sitting here reading last months Esquire magazine and the most popular question in the last couple of years (Thanks Tiger, Jon, Jesse) has been brought up and answered in an article titled “Why do men cheat?”. It shined light to a man’s perspective on the subject and for that matter the perspective of a “Veteran” cheater. Take a look and if any women wanna chime in on this guys thoughts comment here or on my FB, I would love the female opinion on this article…

Man-cipe (Thats a Mans Recipe..get it?)

2010-04-18T16:26:00.001-04:00

So here’s a Mancipe for all the ppl that miss my cooking. Sadly I can’t claim this Mancipe as my own but it’s damn good chili and it has beer in it, so ‘nuff said!!

The Manly Chili

Ingredients:
1 lb ground meat (beef or pork, or a combination)
1 onion, finely diced
2 cloves garlic, finely diced
2 tbsp chili powder
2 tsp oregano
2 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp cayenne pepper (more if you like it hot)
1 bottle beer (prefferably Dos Equis)
2 x 28 oz canned tomatoes
2 x 14 oz red kidney beans
1 cinnamon stick
2 tbsp tomato paste
Directions:
Brown the ground meat over a medium-high heat, then transfer to a plate.
Gently fry the onion and garlic until they are translucent and then add the chili powder, oregano, cumin, and cayenne pepper. Keep frying until the herbs give off their aroma.
Add the beer, canned tomatoes, beans, cinnamon stick, and tomato paste, and bring the mixture to a boil. Then lower the heat and let the mixture simmer for 60 to 90 minutes.
Once the chili has thickened, serve with grated sharp cheddar cheese and finely diced onions.
When to eat it: Juggy says it’s great to eat when waiting your turn in a round robin Street Fighter match or while watching “The” game however I prefer to enjoy this luscious side with the beer for which you used for the added ingredient with 2 not 3 of your buddy’s ( too many ppl not enough chili) while watching the grill grill your Steak

Letting Cage out of the “Cage”

2010-04-17T23:56:00.001-04:00

Is it me or am I the only one who still has faith in Nicolas ~~Coppola~~ Cage? I mean the guy has seriously brought hits of the past like Face-off, Gone in sixty seconds, Ghost Rider (ok maybe the second one can redeem him) and Lord of War, yet his popularity now is at an all time low. Sure he hasn’t been too hot with the movie critics but this lil sneak peak should make you want to watch him be KICKASS ( I can’t say that enough) in his new role as a psychopath crime fighting father of one.

Don’t get you’re ASS-KICKED!!!

2010-04-17T01:32:00.000-04:00

So only a totally kick ass movie like KICKASS, not to be confused with the questionable porn site kickass, could bring back the man-blog that is Da Juggspot because I personally went into the theater in my return to NY cinema with the expectation of an awesome movie with gut-wrenching laughter. What I got however came out of the proverbial left field like a boomerang while I was sleeping…

This movie was a total warp from what I was expecting. I was expecting a Superbad meets Spiderman flick and instead got Watchmen/Superbad times 30 Kill Bill sequels. While it was a funny movie it was far from being a comedy. This movie is gritty as can be without being too over the top. (SPOILER) For example at one point there are multiple thugs being sliced and diced like its a Ginsu knife infomercial for the hood with enough blood to make Tarantino smile and that’s just childsplay (literally) compared to the rest of it.

In short if you like dark humor in a popcorn film that lays the Velveeta thick then check it out, you won’t be disappointed.

Punisher: Warzone "bloody" review...

2008-12-05T04:13:00.000-05:00

D-Day...
Hiroshima and Nagasaki...
Carrot top movies...

Even though all of these events have taken many lives, none of these can compare to the carnage in the new Punisher: Warzone flick. this movie will finally rectify all the claims that the past iterations were soft pg-13 movies where this one probably barely made it past nc-17. At least a body count of 200 plus, go check it out now!

Juggys review: Kanye West latest and greatest

2008-11-29T17:17:00.000-05:00

So I've just finished listening to Kanye's new album 808's and heartbreak and I must say it is one heck of an album. Kanye has managed to transcend the hip hop genre to a new level where he mixes hip hop, pop, and R&B all in one. The album in my opinion is a "must cop" (ny slang for a must have) for any fan of his work. check it out here
