Bulleye's on the WH?!

North Koreans take the WH in this recent movie

Coming soon, a paramilitary group (sort of a "Air Force One" on the ground movie) take the WH with wanna be Secret Service Agent, Capital Policeman on a White House tour with his daughter (kinda of like "Die Hard") is caught in the middle and tries to rescue the President (Jamie Foxx).

And of course, the poor WH gets blown up in "ID4"

It seems ever since the WH was burned by the British in 1814 (War of 1812); 1600 Pennsylvania Ave has NOT been a safe address for the President (atleast in the movies).

Independence Day (part 2 and 3?)

Apparently Producer/Director of ID4 is talking sequel!

According to the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly, the aliens are coming back to Earth (twenty years after the first attack) after a distress call goes out back to the alien's homeworld. Of course, now Earth has been rebuilt using some of the alien's technology. Actor Bill Pullman who played the President (and fighter pilot commander) almost 17 years ago in the first movie has confirmed that he will be back but at this time Will Smith has not committed. Are you ready for two more sequel of ID4?

Here's the link to EW article.

"Revolution" is back (and someone dies)

After a long break, the series is back.

Danny gets to shoot the big gun

as the rest of the Mathesons watches on

So the series picks up moments after our Miles, Aaron, and Nora rescues Charlie, Danny, and Rachel from Monroe. As they escape from Monroe's prison, Monroe's army is literally empowered (by Rachel's power pendant) and one of Monroe's Huey gunship rises up and activates it's pod minigun (now the problem is modern helos require alot of maintenance when they're being actively used ... how does one start flying after sitting for 15 years without any power or jet fuel, etc ... but then it is science fiction). So fast forward thru this episode, Rachel just happens to remember she knows someone that has a power pendant too and high tech weaponry (so where has this guy been in the last 15 years and why is he still leaving in the same place in a post-apocalyptic world?!).

So our group splits up, with Miles and Rachel go look for help while Charlie and the rest of the "Scooby" gang stay to help the Rebels. It turns out that Rachel's friend has been turned by an even worst bad guy than President Monroe. Fortunately, Miles and Rachel manage to escape and return to help the surviving US rebel central command stronghold fight off two of the Monroe gunships. In the climatic episode's battle, one of our heroes dies fighting the gunships (the irony was that the death was more accidental by the disable chopper than intentional ... but maybe I'm the only one that thought that was kinda of lame). So to add another couple of layers of mystery, an glowing electronic capsule was cut out of our dead hero by______ and Mister Bad Guy visits President Monroe and offers to help him; hmmmm, WTF?!

Well, let's see what next week brings to our favorite revolutionist!

Good Neighbors or KGB Sleeper agents next door?! New episodes on Wednesdays on FX

About Show Episode Guide

The Americans is a period drama about the complex marriage of two KGB spies posing as Americans in suburban Washington D.C. shortly after Ronald Reagan is elected President. The arranged marriage of Philip (Matthew Rhys) and Elizabeth Jennings (Keri Russell), who have two children – 13-year-old Paige (Holly Taylor) and 10-year-old Henry (Keidrich Sellati), who know nothing about their parents’ true identity – grows more passionate and genuine by the day, but is constantly tested by the escalation of the Cold War and the intimate, dangerous and darkly funny relationships they must maintain with a network of spies and informants under their control. Complicating their relationship further is Philip’s growing sense of affinity for America’s values and way of life. Tensions also heighten upon the arrival of a new neighbor, Stan Beeman (Noah Emmerich), an FBI agent. Stan and his partner, Agent Chris Amador (Maximiliano Hernández), are members of a new division of Counterintelligence tasked with fighting against foreign agents on U.S. soil, including KGB Directorate S illegals, Russian spies posing as Americans.
