Apologies

By

Until someone of greater rank or importance than myself can muster up the courage, let me say:

I'm sorry that this War on Terror led my country to invade a country that was not directly tied to 9/11.

I'm sorry that relations between the Christian and Muslim worlds have gotten so soured that a cartoon is enough to inspire riots and violence.

I'm sorry that the victims of Hurricane Katrina did not get the help and supplies when they needed them...and that in many cases, they still aren't.

I'm sorry that our government cannot debate issues anymore and that dissent is considered treason or defeatism.

I'm sorry that the only popular news for the media to report seems to be bad news, and that good news never seems to have any substance or lesson connected to it.

I'm sorry that someone saw fit to make a "Weekend at Bernie's 2."

I'm sorry that racism still exists.

I'm sorry that people in power feel that while everyone has a right to be born, they could care less about the environment they are born into, the life they have to live and the socio-economical hurdles they have to face.

I'm sorry wise people have to die before we can acknowledge their wisdom.

Most of all, I'm sorry that everything seems to be placed in one of two categories: right and wrong. And that having power and being in charge determines what issues/beliefs get put in which category.

For being DC Comic's most recognizable female character, WW has been given the cinematic shaft for a long time. We've seen two incarnations of Lois Lane and countless Bat-groupies, but not one decent pitch for the Amazon in the big screen. And we're talking about a character who made armored underwear cool waaay before anyone heard of Princess Leia. So here's one humble man's suggestion for any future casting of the Wonder Woman movie. I really have three rules for casting: she has to be at least 5'10", under 45 and attractive enough to pass for a princess. Sandrine Holt - Age: 36, Height: 5'10", Relevant Movie/TV Roles: Resident Evil: Apocalypse & Mutant X Pros : She's played both a (doomed) reporter and a person with superpowers, so if she can play both, she's a shoe-in. Plus she's probably the least-known actress on this list, so they can two movies out of her cheap. Cons : While D.C. isn't as star-crazy as Marvel when it co...

5 Actresses Who Deserve a Bigger Break

Being the avid movie watcher that I am, I've noticed that more than one talented actress has been passed over for other talent. And by "talent," I mean, "sex tapes that 'accidentally' made it to the Internet." Well, here's one man's humble attempt to rectify the situation. The following ladies are not only talented, but beautiful. Hollywood: get off your ass and give these women more roles. DANIELLE FISHEL Noticeable TV/Movie Appearances: Boy Meets World; both National Lampoon's Dorm Dazes The delightful Ms. Fishel has the distinction of having the weirdest named ever associated with a smart-yet-hot character (or maybe I'm the only one who has a problem saying "Topanga!" whilst in the throes of passion) as well as participating in the death of the National Lampoon Series (I personally thought it died with Chevy Chase's career; who knew?). If you were to use her IMBD page as a reference, the only real fault people seem to hav...
