Preqeuls and Sequels That I Would Enjoy Seeing

17 02 2008
  1. Prequel: Ocean’s Eleven (2001): The story of how Danny met Rusty, Danny met Tess, Tess and Danny split. That would be a movie worth seeing.
  2. Sequel: The Bourne Ultimatum (2007): Yeah, I know. This is the sequel of a sequel. Yet Ultimatum leaves the series wide open. What happens to Bourne? Does he meet up with Nicky? Does he discover the remainder of his past? Twilight Sone theme plays…
  3. Sequel: Hitch (2004): So, Will Smith gets the girl. Then what? Oh, I forgot to say that Kevin James gets the girl(What?). I’d like to see someone, a young guy, be a new Hitch in a different setting. Show flashbacks to Smith training the kid.

Now, sequels that are coming, some I’d like to see and some I wouldn’t. Note: These are the ones you haven’t heard of yet. You’ve heard of Prince Caspian, Quantam of Solace, and The Dark Knight.

  1. Night at the Museum 2: Escape from the Smithsonian (2009): I loved the original. Robin Williams was hi-larious. So was Owen Wilson. Anyway, if this movie is to succeed, then Shawn Levy needs to bring them back or get someone big to represent Abe Lincoln and George Washington.
  2. The Pink Panther 2 (2009): Shawn Levy must love making sequels. He is also directing this movie where Inspector Clouseau (Steve Martin) is joined by a team of others (including Alfred Molina and Andy Garcia) to find a globe-trotting theif who steals historical artifacts.

This is a list of sequels that have been reported without a substantial amount of information:

  1. Wild Hogs 2 (2010)
  2. Transformers 2 (2009)
  3. The Fast and the Furious 4 (2009)
  4. The Chronicles of Narnia: Voyage of the Dawn Treader (2010)
  5. Spider-Man 4 (2010)



Commodore v. Corvo

11 02 2008

There are two sides to this debacle. Firstly, Commodore is better defensively than Corvo. But the Hurricanes need a point man on the power play, and Corvo fits the bill.

  •  Hurricanes Value: A-
  • Senators Value: B



Eaves v. Stillman

11 02 2008

Patrick Eaves isn’t the greatest hockey player in the world. He had 32 points last year in 73 games for Ottawa. Cory Stillman isn’t the greatest either. He had 76 points in 72 games last year for Carolina. Hmm…. Stillman is more of a power-play specialist who can do penalty kill. Eaves is a young player who has yet to prove himself.

  •  Potential Value of Trade: B+
  • Present Value: C
  • Senators Value: A



Corvo and Eaves are the newest Hurricanes

11 02 2008

Patrick Eaves and Joe Corvo were traded to the Carolina Hurricanes today for Cory Stillman and Mike Commodore. I’m going to line up Eaves and Stillman (forwards) and Corvo and Commodore (defensemen) in my next two blogs.




Morgenstern scores 40

8 02 2008

Ray Morgenstern seems like the typical high school senior. He dresses in collared shirt under black North Face, baggy jeans and flat-billed cap. But Ray Morgenstern has a skill that many high-school seniors don’t. He can score 40 points in a basketball game. On Thursday night against the Oak Ridge Military Academy Cadets, Ray Morgenstern did just that. He shot 15-21 (71%) from the field and missed 1 out of 8 free throws. It took a last second 3 to get the 40, but he got it. O’Neal won the game 65-43, but the story was Morgenstern. He scored 16 points in the 1st half and 24 in the second, leading a comeback from being 7 points down after 2 quarters. Look for Ray to be a D-1 player when he graduates. I’ve already had people come up and ask me about him. 




I C-A-L-L-E-D IT

4 02 2008

I called it right here on this blog. One of the few and of the brave, I said that the New York Football Giants (see Chris Berman) were going to win Super Bowl XLII. And I was right. Eli showed that he could possibly be better than his brother (hard to tell now). Eli took over the game for the Giants and showed what he was made of. 19-34, 225 yards, 2 4th quarter TDs. Talk about playing well when it counts. He outplayed Tom Brady, who, despite completing 29 out of 48 passes for 266 yards, looked shaky. One of my classmates said he had been sacked 21 times during the regular season and 5 last night. The 5 stat is true and I don’t know if I believe the 21. But the Giants D allowed only 45 rushing yards on 16 carriesin a game dominated by passing (Btw, New York rushed for 91 on 26). So, just remember who said it, right here on ericnovak21.wordpress.com. Me.
