Mongol was pretty good. Tells the story of Genghis Khan in his early life. Follows him as a boy that kinda gets the short end of the stick. Then as a young man fighting to first regain his freedom, and later to rescue his wife, and later still he fights for freedom (he gets captured again and put in a Zoo… SWA?). then he unites all the Mongols into a glorious fighting forces and heads West to Russia. End of epic film.
Part 2 is supposed to come out in 2010. hmmm, Olympics or Genghis Khan laying into some Christian Knights?
The thing with the movie that sorta irked me is, how come Genghis Khan was such a rad warrior. When I watched Batman, it made sense… Christian Bale goes off to some secret monastery of shadowy ninjas and beats the shit out of Liam Neeson and swims in ice water.
Granted, Genghis Khan did swim in ice water and live… but the fighting doesn’t make sense. In the early part of the story, he is little more than a slave or hobo. Then they fast forward and he’s Heath Ledger in a Knight’s Tale. They don’t connect the lines.
Oh man… I just watched the Knight’s Tale trailer again and it brought the LOLz.

In G n’ R news, this story made me giggle.

Prodigy are putting out a new record, and my man Dave Grohl is drumming. Like me, he is a Dad and rocks the facial hair. We’re like twins.
***
James posted this video on his Facebook. Some dude dancing to Beyonce’s “Put a Ring on it.”
I am not too sure if James does a whole heck of a lot of programming at The Peak, or just watches quirky videos all day.

This commercial got sent to me from a Zoner named Gina. It is four minutes long, but I think worth it.

I do spend a lot of time of Facebook, but I am not member of no Facebook army. WTF is wrong with society?

That story is reason #25 why Madelyn is NEVER going on the internet.

Nine Inch Nails is tomorrow night!
Coral and I got a babysitter and are jazzed on the show.

Thank you for hitting my Purevolume site. I posted some audio there the other day and put the link on my blog and I got a few hits. Thank you for taking the time.
Go with yourself.

Johnny B. Shields is pulling away on the Movember race and is crushing me. Boitano has also pulled in front of me too!

Priestess‘ Mikey Heppner stopped by the Zone today… we chatted about a bunch things that he had recently blogged about. He is such a dude. New record from Priestess is coming soon and you better believe you’ll hear it on my show when there is something to play.
***
Band of Horses is also working on some new music which gets all of us here at Casa La CorJ hot and bothered. When I talk fave bands, Band of Horses is near the top of that list.

I got a call on the Zone phone today from some guy completely outraged that I went on the radio yesterday saying I wasn’t so jazzed on the new Guns N Roses. I don’t think he is a regular listener of the show. He had “heard” through the grapevine that I had “slammed” G ‘n R so this knight had risen to the challenge to defend Axl’s honour and tell me off. Turns out my head needs to be “shaked” because it wasn’t clear to me that Chinese Democracy was the “BEST record of the last few years.” O RLY? He got many facts wrong and we talked it out… I think its all good now. Maybe its good that people talk about my show with their friends, but getting the facts so off… yikes, I don’t think they were saying nice things about my show. So I guess they are forgiven for never finding the blog either… then they’d know, I am trying to like G ‘n R and I am an odyssey of discovery. I downloaded “Better” today. Kinda good.
One good song on the new G n’ R record… to me that is a triumph as I expected zero.

Heard some Mother Mother on the modern rock inbox the other day. very nice. The main dude grew up on Quadra Island.

Corj and I are taking Madelyn to visit Grandma Mom and Grandpa Jack this weekend, so I’ll rap at cha on Monday. On Monday I am taking a turn driving the Desert Bus! Tuesday is Straight Up Modern Rock night at The Clubhouse, giving away some Nine Inch Nail Tickets; Thursday is the Movember gala; Friday I shave my stache and then it is the NIN show at the arena; I’ll be broadcasting live outside; Saturday is the Zone’s Christmas Party!
Have a good weekend.
