Entertainment Complaints

John Ronald Reuel Tolkien wrote The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings, and The Silmarillion. In 1938, Tolkien was planning to release The Hobbit in Germany. The publishers first wanted to discern if he was of Aryan descent. This was his response. "if I am to understand that you are enquiring whether I am of Jewish origin, I can only reply that I regret that I appear to have no ancestors of that...

There is new hope for those who grew up reading Harry Potter and seem to have lost their zest for life with the conclusion of the franchise movies. It comes in the form of a new fantasy novel called "The Magician King" by Lev Grossman. It makes grown up Potter fans strive for a more grown up existence with adult content and reality based themes, despite the cheesy fantastical title. Previous...

Fans of J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series have been anxiously awaiting the creation of a mysterious new website, Pottermore.com. Little tween nerds all over the world have been sitting on their soft thumbs waiting for more Harry Potter to come into the world. With the final movie coming out in less than a month, obsessed fans have been wondering, "What will we do now? What will we look forward...

Self-proclaimed "pimp", Katt Williams, has been in the news this week, and not for his comedy. Katt Williams is most known for his televised comedy specials like The Pimp Chronicles and Pimpin' Pimpin' and for his hilarious character portrayls in comedic movies like Friday and First Sunday. This week, however, Katt is not in the news for a new joke or a new movie; he picture is circulating the...

Conan O' Brien, the man famous for his late night show "Conan" and also a former writer for the "Simpons" TV show. Some believe this is a man of many talents, he is a television host, comedian, writer, producer and performer. His hosting sucks, his comedy is crap, his writing is terrible, the only thing he produces is a headache alongside that is constipation and he's a failure at performing. I...

Every time he opens his mouth all he says is Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao is using steroids in every fight he has. He kept saying it, but he can't really provide any proof to back up his accusations. I think this is the best way he can do to trash the world champions reputation. Can't he really fight Manny "Pacman" Pacquiao? Or is he really afraid that he can be beaten up by Pacquiao. May Weather...

One of the Hollywood comedy scene's most famous jokesters is receiving some interesting publicity in the media this week. Famed funny-man, Zach Galifianakis, has created quite the buzz this week by publicly speaking out about his opinions. Not too many comedians could get away with regular stunts like these, but Zach's loveable, and sometimes accidental, comedy makes him a forgivable source of...

Few women in comedy are experiencing such impressive career growths as America's favorite Tuesday night villain, Jane Lynch. Lynch found her ideal character in Fox's smash success, Glee, a musical hour-long sitcom. She plays the malicious villain, Sue Sylvester on one of the top-rated shows on television. Her impeccable comedic timing and nonchalant delivery have made her the recipient of a...

I recently brought my 12 year old daughter and three of her friends to go see the Blue Man Group at the Charles Playhouse in Boston MA. I bought the tickets after reading several positive reviews about the show. What the hell were these idiots talking about, this show sucked! I was so damn bored I almost fell asleep. The Blue man Group show can be summed up by this: drums, drums, and...

The majority of the women that are involved in nude modeling for erotica are young, sometimes freshly of the legal age. Because of the young age of these models, there is a lot of bad press surrounding nude modeling. These fresh, young models often the brunt of the bad press. It is seen, in many respects, as a disrespectful industry, and the women involved are seen as having no self-respect....

There is such a stigma attached with females in comedy. The entire comedy scene is a giant sausage-fest. If stand-up comedy were a giant breakfast table, there is a giant pig at the head of the table with a sign that reads, 'Leave your eggs at home!' It's like, if you have a vagina, you are not respected as a funny person. Either you have no sense of humor, or you have one that is only...

Reality television is the media's pathetic excuse for entertainment because it's cheap and the people of this generation are easily amused. They could broadcast a full 30 minutes of a monkey flinging his poo at a flock of cameramen, and it would become an overnight sensation because the people who watch reality television are generally ignorant. They don't know that what they're watching isn't...

Sport-hunting is typically an annual game for cowards, losers, sexually inept idiots, and morally awkward outcasts. There will be the argument of killing what you eat when less than 40% of sport-hunters murder defenseless animals for meat. Trust me, they ARE defenseless. They have hooves and horns, where you have guns and knives. Traditional sport-hunters are obviously at a superior weapon...

I saw a sign the other day that said World Of Warcraft: How can you kill that which has no life? Although I laughed for several minutes afterwards, it really made me wonder if WoW was still as popular as it was 5 years ago. I asked around and got a resounding Yes! My initial response was, what the hell for?! This game creates social rejects, complete mental retards, and destroys the brain cells...

Vampires began as risen blood-sucking corpses of nightmares and myth. Not quite zombies because of their ability to think semi-logically but just as gruesome in appearance. The first, and perhaps the closest image to folklore, was Nosferatu. The man who played the role stayed up for days on end to achieve the pale pallor and scary, wide-eyed face that would become a cult classic. So far though,...

I hate Michael Vick, he is a disgrace to the human race, Just because his violence was against animals does not change the fact that he is indeed a serial killer. We know for certain he murdered at least seven dogs. He admitted to murdering these precious animals by hanging and drowning, and electrocuting them and by slamming them against the wall or the ground. How could anyone forgive this...

There's nothing "super" about The Superbowl. The object of the game, the seating, the players who fans idolize for chasing a bowl across a lawn, the beer-bellied idiots painted in team colors, and the at home partiers who yell at the television sets. Is it just me or does The Superbowl warrant the congregation of morons? It's not the game itself, it's not even the players that really bug me. It...

I find Nascar to be a completely pointless and loathsome "sport." I truly cannot wrap my mind around the fact that there are drivers who do this competitively, going around and around; constantly turning only left. What's more perplexing is the fact that so many people watch Nascar races or attend the events. Here in Mooresville, NC, there is an entire museum dedicated to Nascar; where fans can...

Forbiddance things does not kind them go absent. I conceive the large ask is should we reckon sequestered bodies or government committees to censor or ban things. I'm a fairly liberalistic somebody, and thus involvement into this form of contents displeases me always. I concur rape is an awful abstract, but there are many other terrible things in the humankind and they do not all necessity to be...

For decades, the Disney Channels and Disney movies have been deemed wholesome and free of vulgar material. This thought extends to the teenage actresses and actors who participate in making Disney a family-oriented channel; but then you see these same teenagers in the tabloids for acting like typical kids and people freak out. Just because Disney is hosted by an all-encompassing image of...

Disney has really gone downhill since I was a kid. The days of Snow White or Alice In Wonderland are over and they've been replaced by such nonsense as Hannah Montana and anything related to teenyboppers. Walt Disney would turn over in his grave if he knew what the moguls within his corporation were doing to the business; but now there's a whole new spin of annoyance that someone has unleashed....
