Ivan Reitman has passed away.......... RIP


WOW Just after his son Jason brought back his most classic movie franchise “Ghostbusters” in the sequel “Ghostbusters: Afterlife” and Ivan served as producer to the film, and was on set during the filming, and it makes me happy he got to see the film his son made. But with the good comes the back as the the legendary Director and Producer passed away peacefully in his home Saturday night in his sleep. His family released a statement as they have come together to mourn this loss. Not just they feel it but his fans like myself, and millions of others feel their pain. He was one of my all time favorite directors, and he made some of the best comedies in movie history.

Ghostbusters made Ivan Reitman Legendary but he had such an iconic career other than just those two original films. He left us Saturday in his sleep at home, as reported by The Associated Press. Reitman was the highly successful producer behind several top comedies like Animal House and of course, Ghostbusters. Undoubtedly the world will be grieving the death of another film icon with this tremendous loss. He was 75 years old.


“Our family is grieving the unexpected loss of a husband, father, and grandfather who taught us to always seek the magic in life,” children Jason Reitman, Catherine Reitman and Caroline Reitman said in a joint statement. “We take comfort that his work as a filmmaker brought laughter and happiness to countless others around the world. While we mourn privately, we hope those who knew him through his films will remember him always.”

Reitman’s son, Jason Reitman, recently directed and co-wrote Ghostbusters: Afterlife and has often said the film is a love letter to his father’s work on the original films. Ivan was able to see his son’s work come to life this past summer with the highly successful film which was released to highly touted critical acclaim.

Reitman, whose big break came from National Lampoon’s Animal House, went on to be a top mind and producer on several of Hollywood’s biggest, most outrageous comedies from Stripes to Bill Murray’s first starring role, Meatballs. Of course, there is no doubt that Reitman’s best, most prolific work came in the not so spectral form of Ghostbusters. The 1984 film starring Bill Murray, Harold Ramis, Dan Aykroyd, and Ernie Hudson has spawned two sequels now, and a reboot featuring an all-female cast in 2016. However, this aside, his work on Ghostbusters spawned comics, cartoons, merchandise, books, video games, and indeed shaped pop culture for the better. Reitman also tried his directing chops in such comedies as Dave, Kindergarten Cop, and Twins.

Last year, while on the press tour with his son Jason, Reitman, who did have a cameo in Afterlife, was asked about his masterpiece, and how it continued to fascinate, and even grow. He had a great response as he said, “I always had a sort of sincere approach to the comedy. I took it seriously even though, it was a horror movie and a comedy, I felt you had to sort of deal with it in a kind of realistic and honest way.”

Born in Komarmo, Czechoslovakia in 1946, the son of a vinegar factory owner, Reitman will go down as one of, if not the best comedy producers of all time. This is a legacy his son Jason, and daughters Catherine Reitman and Caroline Reitman can be proud of as well as join in with millions of fans worldwide united in grief and celebration of a magnificent and award-winning career. Our thoughts go out to them at this painful time. Ivan will always be remembered for his incredible work and his legacy will live on forever. Rest in peace.

New Teaser for "The Batman" has fans ‘losing it’ over the Dark Knight voice by Robert Pattinson...


So in the next 24 hours or so the new trailer for the 2022 movie “The Batman” starring Robert Pattinson and Directed by Matt Reeves will be out on the net. Here we’re super hyped for this movie as big fans of both the Director, and lead actor.


Myself I loved the Nolan take and this seems darker here and more towards a horror movie take which is something I love, and always wanted to see done in the world of Batman.

I know there are some fans who are still mad that Ben Afflack isn’t in this movie and hate on Robert for simply not being Ben. But listen guys BEN left the project as Direct, Co Writer, and STARRING LEAD ACTOR.

Nobody pushed him out as he himself said he couldn’t “crack it” and so he left the role for Matt Reeves to pick up as Director and put his take together.



Now I Love what I’ve seen so far in the first teaser, and official trailer and now this teaser for the second official trailer coming out again on 10/16/2021 this to me is proof that we’re in for something special.

Here is the teaser and come back on the 16th as I post the official trailer here also…

Official Trailer 1

🤯The Mouse House fired Gina Carano! Well time to cancel Disney+

So Gina Carano has become the latest victim to the cancel culture movement which has now engulfed Disney from every angle. While she loses her job on the show “The Mandalorian” the house which at one point was the happiest place on earth still hires a pedophile loving James Gunn who looks like a sick pedo himself? I mean who jokes on twitter about pedophilia, and talks to known pedophiles on the subject? JAMES GUNN!

But this thing with GINA is retarded in that worse sounding way possible folks it’s beyond stupid! Now IF She loses her job why does Disney not get fired up, and start handing out pink slips? Kathleen Keneddy, Pablo Hidalgo, and a few other inmates you have running your big brands need to go. Remember that idiot Pablo Hidalgo who trolled and mocked the “Star Wars Theory” dude? I mean how can Disney allow those evil acts to go by, and get so hard on Gina as to fire her?

I mean I thought in America we had the freedom of speech, and expression, thought, and well everything else. But I don’t find her tweets more offensive then what Pablo Hidalgo, and James Gunn are known to do. Hell Mark Hamill mocked Trumps grandson a little kid who was wearing a stormstrooper outfit member that? Mark being an adult should have more class than this but he doesn’t. He’s also a socialist moron who’s sold out, and his actions are loved, and welcomed by Disney? Well in the defense of Disney they did write the Luke role shitty, and the last two movies he got totally shitted on. SO guess it’s not all bad. lol

This is what’s being reported… “Actress Gina Carano has been fired from The MandalorianLucasfilm released a statement on Wednesday night explaining that they had no intention of continuing to work with Carano due to her inflammatory social media posts. “Gina Carano is not currently employed by Lucasfilm and there are no plans for her to be in the future,” the statement read. “Nevertheless, her social media posts denigrating people based on their cultural and religious identities are abhorrent and unacceptable.”

This decision comes in the wake of Carano sharing a deeply controversial post on Instagram claiming that being a Republican in America was the same as being Jewish in Nazi Germany. “Jews were beaten in the streets, not by Nazi soldiers but by their neighbors… even by children,” the post read. “Because history is edited, most people today don’t realize that to get to the point where Nazi soldiers could easily round up thousands of Jews, the government first made their own neighbors hate them simply for being Jews. How is that any different from hating someone for their political views?”

By the way what she said is 100% accurate, and you know why she’s being silenced? Because facts hurt, and because this is what they’re doing to us NOW! The left is doing that to everyone who’s not like them, and it’s why they are impeaching Trump, and trying everything to destroy the conservatives. Gina saying that hits home because A it’s a historical fact statement, and B they don’t want us reminded so they can do it again but in America, and now it’s using Black Lives Matter, Antifa, and groups like Boogaloo Boys.

Now who we’re the NAZI? The Nazi was the Hitler party which took in the vile, and evil people who would kill their own friends, and neighbors, and who were of what the evil Adolf deemed “pure.” Now they had “JEWS” who also were part of the “NAZI” these Jews didn’t care for their own people, and worked with Hitler against their own people because they again didn’t care, and were kept alive, and living good considering the alternative. Sounds like the RINOS in the senate/congress today right?

Now replace Jews with Conservatives, and the Nazi for the Democrats, and we have an identical idology. They’re both following the same “MARXIST” mentality. I’ve not missed 1 episode of Mandalorian, and I don’t have Disney+ while I thought about getting it now I will not ever get it, and I will not spend another dime on anything Disney related. I recently canceled my Amazon Prime as my payback for them canceling Parler. You see folks we are at fault for this cancel culture. We have given these companies too much power by buying into them, and giving them our money.

I didn’t buy “Rise of Skywalker” or “Solo” and while I hated The Last Jedi I was willing to give Rise of Skywalker a chance, and that was trash. Now Mandalorian was bringing me back to the fold, and Gina was a big reason for it… She played the best female character in SW since Princess Leia, and yes I said that. FUCK REY! Rey was garbage in the end of the trilogy.

Gina was a badass in the show, and well it’s the fans who lose in the end because instead of Disney being to keep us entertained now it’s all about being woke, and political agendas they want to push. To quote YODA.

Carano also liked a tweet saying “you are more likely to be assaulted for being a Trump supporter than for your race” and shared a satirical news post about Democratic leaders wearing their masks like blindfolds so they “can’t see what’s really going on.” Which again is 100% real. I’ve lost close friends due to me simply supporting Trump, and having voted for him.

Carano also raised eyebrows on social media when she mocked people who put their pronouns in their social media bios she wrote “beep/bop/boop” in hers causing many to call her out as transphobic. Carano initially responded that she will “stand against bullying, especially the most vulnerable & freedom to choose.” However, when she faced further criticism, she doubled down, arguing that she had faced “months of harassing in every way.” “I decided to put 3 VERY controversial words in my bio.. beep/bop/boop,” she tweeted.

“I’m not against trans lives at all,” she wrote. “They need to find less abusive representation.” She later claimed that her decision to put “beep/bop/boop” in her bio as “zero to do with mocking trans people” but was instead an attempt at “exposing the bullying mentality of the mob that has taken over the voices of many genuine causes.”

Once again she’s 100% right, and spot on… But Disney fires her, and keeps James Gunn and his pedophile loving tweets? Cause again this blow is ok?

Here is what Geeks & Gamers Jeremy said on the subeject… Funny video.
