I'm Really Getting Sick of People

This is going to be one of those angry posts...I had the day off to take the baby to the doctor's office...Shot day sucks! Then the Little Beeze had to see an allergist because the spring/summer has got his eczema going crazy...Telling a 6 year old boy he is allergic to grass sucks...And getting him to not dive for ground balls is out of the question...He wouldn't listen if I told him not to dive in the grass...

But that's not what this is about...Those things just helped me stay in a crabby mood about some other things that have been in the news the last week...

First off, Roger Ebert...You stupid, drooling asshole...I'm all for cracking jokes, and busting balls, but could you at least wait a couple days before you make jokes about a dead guy who was on "Jackass" Ebert tweeted "Friends don't let jackasses drive drunk" shortly after the death of Ryan Dunn...Roger, maybe wait for the toxicology report to come out...Besides, it just wasn't cool...I know you have trouble speaking, you drooling mess, so you love pounding your keys, but fuck dude! Hold back for at least a day...Ebert is a egotistical gas-bag, and besides being wrong tweeting that shit hours after Dunn's death, most of his stupid movie reviews are wrong too...Why the fuck did the doctors save you!?!

Too harsh? Too bad!

Next, Tracy Morgan...Tracy, please stop apologizing to everyone, for doing your job...For those who don't know, a gay man was offended while sitting in a comedy club, watching Tracy Morgan, because Morgan did a bit saying, 'If his son was gay he would stab him'...Now I wasn't there, so I didn't hear the full context but, It's a comedy show...It's Tracy Morgan, who is all about shock comedy...He's always done "Edgy" stuff...He's always crossed lines...That's why people go to see him...I saw his last special on HBO and I thought it sucked...But I knew what kind of stuff he was going to do...It's Tracy Morgan...

So for over a week the Gay rights groups have been up his ass, and have him constantly apologizing for hurting people with his words...FUCK THAT! He was doing his job...It's not his fault you have thin skin...Why is Lisa Lampanelli allowed to say whatever she wants about Gays, Blacks, Hispanics, Asian, and Jews, but Tracy Morgan can't joke about stabbing a gay son...And just so you know, I'd be fine if the Little Beeze turned out to be gay, but guess what? Me and every father on this Earth, all hope that our sons are straight...That's just the way it is...And that's probably why some people laughed at the bit...

Next, all of you Jesus freaks who were upset that NBC excluded "under God" from their Pledge of Allegiance montage...First so you know, it was written by a socialist, minister, named Francis Bellamy in 1892...It read,

"I pledge allegiance to my Flag and the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

In 1923 this slight change was made...

"I pledge allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."

It wasn't until 1954 when "under God" was added during our fear of the Communists...But most fucking dummies don't know that! Bellamy's daughter objected to this change, and we all should...The Pilgrims came here to be free of Religious persecution...The founders of this country made it clear that there should be Freedom of/from Religion, and there should be separation of Church and State...I'm all in with them on this...

I don't want the State telling the Church what to do, and I don't want the Church telling the State what to do...And the way they both have been acting, I don't want either telling me what to do...If you believe in God, that's great, but just because you believe, doesn't mean the entire Nation does...Back the fuck up!

That's enough ranting for now...

Later, The Beeze.

The Beeze's Reviews "Cop Out"

I hate critics...That's why I started reviewing restaurants awhile back...Food critics suck...Most have no practical experience in the restaurant business...Movie critics often suck just as much...Some ass-hat gives another ass-hat a job watching movies, and writing their opinion on it...Well in this day and age, who needs these people? With big mouths like me and so many others, the Internet is full of opinions...And that's all they are...

I've noticed "Cop Out" getting drilled in the media...Even on ROTTEN TOMATOES http://www.rottentomatoes.com/ has dogged it...That's the only movie reviewing outlet I even look at anymore...

One of the big complaints about "Cop Out" is that, "Dude this buddy cop movie has already been done before." NO SHIT! What movie hasn't been done before? They all have! Hell half the previews before the movie were for remakes of movies I saw as a kid...And F**k you, the original "Clash of the Titans" was awesome...Now it's gonna be all f**ked up with all kinds of CGI!

By the way, the remake of "Death at a Funeral" looks hilarious!


So, let's get to "Cop Out." The wife and I went Saturday night...It was already moved to one of the smaller theaters...And it was full...

First if you are one of the haters...You're wrong...Yes this is an opinion based piece, but as you may already know, I feel my opinion is always right...I'm so sick of people looking too deeply into movies and trying to take things too seriously...I'm going to be entertained...If I want reality I'll stay at home with my kids and wait for my son to destroy something...Like my spirit...The movie was originally titled "A Couple of Dicks" but the studio wasn't gonna go with that...So they change it to "Cop Out." Get it?

If you're a Kevin Smith fan and you're looking for his signature monologues...Go watch "Clerks" again...He didn't write this movie...Just directed it...And God bless him for paying homage (a word that is brought up early in the movie) to classic cop movies...The soundtrack sounded straight out of "Beverly Hills Cop." That was an instant laugh for me...

Now, Bruce Willis as a cop...You can't go wrong with that...He's the greatest American action hero ever! And he knows how do comedy...And let the real comedians do there thing...And Tracy Morgan was doing his thing...How any director can handle that guy is unreal...And Sean William Scott was great...You love him, but you want to punch him in the face!

The story was good...Not great, but good...The action was good...Not over the top...Good...And most importantly the comedy was excellent...The wife and I both laughed throughout the movie...And what else do you want from a comedy? LAUGHS! We had them...And by the sound of the rest of the theater, everyone else was getting the laughs...


So here's the deal...If you want to get some laughs and see some tributes to classic '80's cop movies, you'll like "Cop Out."

Some other advice...They're just movies...Stop taking them so seriously, and let yourself be entertained...

Later, The Beeze.
