Ted Williams Leaves Rehab, and the Shocks Just Keep Coming

The most famous homeless person in the world Ted Williams became an instant celebrity with the now famous video of him standing on the side of the road as a homeless man with a golden voice.  His radio voice surely didn't match how he looked, which was the formula for the video's viral success.  Before long Williams was on ever news channel telling his story of how he threw a successful radio career away due to drugs and alcohol.  He had claimed to be sober and to have found God, but remained homeless and couldn't catch a break in life.

This made for a lovely story, until reality kicked in and it became apparent that you can't take a homeless guy who's had a drug and alcohol problem, throw a ton of publicity and money his way, and everything will be perfect.  I mean come on, who couldn't see this coming?  Dr. Phil stepped in and no doubt got a major ratings boost by featuring Williams on his show and reuniting him with his former wife and kids on his show.  Williams was sure to tell all his family that they would all be "gettin' paid," so it was pretty evident where all this was going.

Not long after his initial appearance on Dr. Phil, a story broke about Williams getting into a hotel brawl with one of his daughters, and also that he hadn't really been sober at all.  Williams had run ins with the cops only a few months before his fame, and on top of that was drinking in the hotel Dr. Phil provided.  Dr. Phil once again jumped on the opportunity for another big show by once again featuring Williams and confronting him about his lies.  Phil offered Williams an all expense paid trip to rehab at one of the best rehab facilities in the world, and Williams accepted.

So this great story about this homeless drug addict with a golden voice turned out to not be exactly what everyone thought, but hey at least the guy is getting help right?  Wrong.  According to TMZ, Ted Williams has left rehab against medical advice after being there less than two weeks. 

I wonder how many homeless people out there are legitamately trying to better themselves but just can't catch a break?  Did Ted Williams hurt all of their reputations by proving to be the stereotypical homeless person that gets some money and runs right back to alcohol and drugs?  I'm sure there are plently of homeless poeple out there with similar amazing talents, but does that mean the media should turn every one into a hyped up Cinderella story that after a closer look, really is not that amazing at all?  I don't see a happy ending with this one, but thats what us Jerks do.  We point out how stupid this was from the beginning, and point out how no one even knew anything about this guy before giving him the opportunities a million other homeless people maybe wouldn't have royally screwed up.  OH WELL.

Random Villains Top 10 Films Of 2010

Well, another year of movies is just about finished up. Now, granted, I have not seen EVERY movie that came out this year. I have sadly not had the chance to see The Social Network yet. So when you see that not that, or some other deserving movie isn't on the list, don't flip out with "OMG NO BLACK SWAN?!?1" I just haven't had time to see everything. So, this is...

THE TOP 10 FILMS I MANAGED TO SEE IN 2010!

10. Jackass 3-D

Easily the funniest movie of the year. And at the same time did a great job of utilizing the 3D element.

9. The Book Of Eli

Had my doubts on this one, but wound up enjoying it quite a bit. One of the best post apocalyptic movies I've seen in quite awhile.

8. The A Team

This got bashed on all over by reviews but I loved it. I was a huge fan of the series as a kid and felt each person nailed the characters. I loved the backstory, and seeing why exactly BA is afraid of flying.

7. The Expendables

It was nice seeing a real action movie in theaters again. Stallone may be getting old as the hills, but he still has IT.

6. Inception

This movie took a while to grow on me. So many holes in it, but at the end of the day, I enjoyed this movie.

5. Frozen

Had some doubts with this, Adam Green is a good director but I'm not too big of a fan of Hatchet. Frozen is easily one of the best horror movies to come along in quite awhile. Very suspenseful and the Making Of on the DVD is worth watching as well.

4. Kick-Ass

I was quite surprised by this. I had read the comic so was looking forward to this but it all felt strange. What I didn't end up liking in the movie, I liked in the book, and what I didn't like in the book, I liked in the movie. I was also expecting maybe a bit more comedy from it, but it wound up being pretty serious and emotional at some times.

3. Tron Legacy

Holy crap did I love Tron as a kid. I would watch the VHS all the time at my parents video store. And am lucky enough to have the elusive Tron 25th Anniversary DVD. When I saw Flynns Arcade in this movie, it gave the inner child in me goosebumps. Was everything I had hoped for.

2. Toy Story 3

I don't understand Pixar. It's like after they made Ratatouille all they have tried to do is make you cry as much as possible. If you didn't choke back at least a small tear and get a lump in your throat during the incinerator scene, then you have no soul.

1. Scott Pilgrim Vs. The World

I was a little wary going into this. Had never read the comics, and Michael Cera had soured on me a little after seeing Year One. But one thing had me going in to see this. Edgar Wright. Mr. Wright is currently my favorite director. He has done no wrong and has had me as a die hard fan since Shaun Of The Dead 4 times in the theater. And what I wound up seeing was what most call a love story for video game nerds. The 8 Bit Universal logo and theme going into the Zelda Link To The Past music starts off the movie and you know right away you are in for a good time. I think, even if I did manage to see EVERY movie this year, Scott Pilgrim would still come out as #1.

Rod Belding Has Been Found in "Saved by the Belding"

If you are a Saved By The Bell fan, you no doubt remember the legendary episode where Mr. Belding announces the class will have a substitute in "Mr. Belding." Oh but it was in fact, Mr. Belding's brother Rod.  Rod Belding was the super cool teacher we all wished would walk into our classroom as our substitute as kids.  Rod was the teacher that replaced things like tests and homework with teaching mouth to mouth lessons with the hot girls and taking the class on white water rafting trips. 

It was no surprise that the class (well the 6 that mattered in Saved by the Bell world) didn't want to go on Mr. Belding's boring trip to Yosemite and chose Rod's white water rafting trip, which gave us the memorable scene where sad Mr. Belding trashes his Yosemite plans.  BUT THEN, we saw the real Rod Belding, as the asshole decides to ditch the kids for a weekend with some stewardess named "Inga."  Thankfully Mr. Belding saves the day by offering to take them white water rafting himself after explaining that Rod "had the flu," but what the hell happened to Rod?

In all the years of Saved by the Bell, we saw Rod Belding exactly once.  Yep, this episode is the classic example of "why didn't we ever hear from this character again" when it comes to TV, and as it turns out, we are not the only ones who wondered.  In the following film "Saved by the Belding," a group of old school Saved by the Bell fans investigate this matter, and locate the one and only Rod Belding, and find out just where the hell he's been for the past 20 years or so.  Can he right his wrongs from Bayside?  Is he the same old Rod Belding?  Or is he just some actor named Edward Blatchford?  It's all answered here.

No more words can do this justice, but if you watched and were a fan of Saved by the Bell, this documentary just filled a huge void; and for these guys, filled a void on the "Bayside documentary" they were watching....yeah, just watch:

Now Miley Cyrus Has Leaked Nude Pics

I'm about to officially declare "celebrity leaked nude pic season" if these keep popping up.  The Jessica Alba leaked nude pics created the biggest buzz of the year, but this story could surpass it in time. 

Miley Cyrus has been aching to whore it up for a long time now, so it's not surprise that only days after she becomes legal, she already has a nude pic scandal going on.  As soon as the pics leaked, the Internet perv investigation unit was on the scene and already looking for evidence to prove whether the pics were real or fake.  Lots of opinions out there, but most seem to say the proof is there to prove they are real.  The biggest proof is how she has presented herself the past year.  The tiny ass shorts, sexual gestures and pole dancing on stage, she just couldn't wait to get naked.  At this rate she'll be doing porn by 30, but hardly anyone will care since she's already showing the goods at barely 18. 

I don't think I've ever even listened to one of her songs, and probably most of the Internet stalkers going wild over these pics probably haven't either, but she's no doubt keeping Billy Ray proud as her star continues to rise.  One conclusion is that these pics may have been taken days before she was technically 18, so we're not brave enough to post them here, but you can follow the ongoing Miley Cyrus scandal with nude pics included over at our friend Egotastic.com.

Where Will the Best Black Friday Deals Be?

I don't remember Black Friday being such a known event when I was younger, but now it's basically the new holiday between Thanksgiving and Christmas.  Years back I think it was simply known as "the worst shopping day of the year."  Stores are battling to get the most crazed stampede of shoppers from their competition, to the point where this year the traditional 5 A.M. start time is being ignored by many stores and now it's a battle to see who can start the earliest.

My question is, who has the deals that are worth getting stampeded for.  I've seen Walmart and Best Buy offering some of the newer end video games for PS3 and Xbox 360 for half price at 30 bucks, with Walmart starting the 30 dollar game sale at midnight.  I've also seen a couple of Nintendo Wii and DS deals going around that seem like winners if your in the market for games.  I was sort of waiting to see Amazon.com's usual Black Friday voting deals that they've done in recent years that allows you to vote on 1 of 3 offers every round, and the winning offer is offered to SOME of the people that voted.  The deals were great, although I never got the chance to buy anything I voted for.  This year they seem to have replaced the voting rounds with Black Friday Deals Week, which is Black Friday offers every day this week, with new deals popping up about every hour.  It's been kind of hard to keep up with, but it is possible to find a good Amazon deal on it.

Other than that, I'm seeing 5 and 10 dollar DVD's (for people that don't realize stores are trying to get rid of them to make more room for Blu Ray's) at most stores, and of course a ton of cameras, TV's, and other electronics and big ticket items are being pushed hard.  Pretty much every story is discounting their stuff, but hardly any that I see are really "can't miss, worth getting trampled for" deals.  I'm not saying they're not out there, but I'm wondering if they are.  So what mega deals have you seen?  What am I missing?  And what is worth getting trampled for?  Share in comments and I may add any mega deals you have found to this post.
