The Intern (Trailer)

Academy Award winners Robert De Niro and Anne Hathaway share the lead in Warner Bros. Pictures’ answer to the ‘Does Hollywood still make good date movies?’ question: “The Intern.” De Niro stars as Ben Whittaker, a 70-year-old widower who has discovered that retirement isn’t all it’s cracked up to be. Seizing an opportunity to get back in the game, he becomes a senior intern at an online fashion site, founded and run by Jules Ostin (Hathaway). Looks like it’ll be light enough on the everyone-has-something-to-teach-and-learn fare with a good dose of comedy to wash it down. Check out the trailer.

RIHANNA – B#TCH BETTER HAVE MY MONEY (CHAKRA REMIX) [PROD. BY ELECTRICW3IRDO]

Sorry, Sir, You Don’t Look Like Someone We’d Serve At This Restaurant…Oh You Have A Ferrari?? (Video)

Boom! Josh Paler Lin got ’em stuck off the… FAKENESS! And if you are brave enough to put yourself in the position of some of the folks on video here, you might feel convicted. Maybe we can all learn how to apply the lesson of this video somehow.

Lin is right. We should all be treated equally in this society; especially when stepping to a restaurant business that should be into making money more than making snap judgments. Dude was denied service because of his homeless look, but when he came back Ferrari fresh and Cosmo dressed the restaurant staff members were all but begging for him to eat there.

And when a restaurant showed itself to be that thirsty – after being so dismissive and judgmental to him before – all of a sudden, he wasn’t that hungry.

Supergirl (Series Trailer)

Add another comic-brought-to-life to your channel-surfing agenda. CBS has green-lit the “Supergirl” television series for this Fall. DC Comics character Supergirl is Superman’s cousin, Kara Zor-El. On the show she’ll be challenged mastering her superhuman abilities and navigating the day-to-day world. Not too groundbreaking in that regard, but looking at the 6+ minute trailer above, CBS is sinking major chips into the hero party. So there better be a huge crowd (e.g. TV audience) tuning in to see the show. Heard good things about the other comic-based shows – The Flash and [Green] Arrow on The CW, even Daredevil on Netflix. However, Supergirl has to be much bigger; (at least) be on par with Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. – on rival major broadcast network ABC. We will see. But for now… see the trailer.

(And before someone brings up Gotham on Fox… Sure, it’s based on DC’s Batman; but that’s a pre-Batman story. Doesn’t count yet.)

World Soccer Pioneer ‘Paul Canoville’ Speaks On Being 1st Black Player Signed to ‘Chelsea FC’ (Video)

When it comes to Sports being the first or a trailblazer can be good and bad at times.  It’s great if you are the first to set a world record or obtain hall of fame for having the most championship rings.  Well when you are the first to break the color line it can be a difficult process and Paul Canoville knows exactly how that feels.  The first black player ever signed to Chelsea FC (Soccer Team based in London, England) Paul experienced harsh treatment from his own fans and people associated with the team.  His love of the sport helped him push through and he helped the team secure championship silverware and now he is an advocate for the club speaking to kids  about pursuing their dreams and dealing with racism.  On his first trip to Atlanta I got a chance to speak with him for a few minutes about his experience at Chelsea and his foundation.  With Atlanta getting a MLS Soccer team in 2017,  we can expect more visits from Soccer legends across the pond!

Amy (Trailer)

Trailer for the new Amy Winehouse documentary, “Amy.” Critics loved it at Cannes Film Festival. We loved us some Amy (apparent by the posts on here). The doc goes into the lyrics, more than suggesting linkages between the movie and the singer’s tumultuous life in its slant… so much depth. Amy. Lost to the world at 27, but sure to be remembered by the world long, long after. Check this trailer out. In theaters July 3, 2015.
