I Have Two Words For You: Ocean's Thirteen

Yes, this is correct. I am sure that you have heard the buzz about this movie. Warner Brothers announced the movie sometime back in January. However, recently they have made it officially official. Filming theoretically is beginning July 21st. But because of busy schedules among cast and crew they are filming on 5 separate sound stages in Los Angeles. So these stages in L.A. are going to be Las Vegas, essentially. This could be a good or a bad thing. We will just have to wait and see. Another bit of a beef I am having is there is no Catherine Zeta-Jones or Julia Roberts will not be present in the movie. Again, could be a good or a bad thing. Personally I was not such a huge "lets have Julia Roberts play Julia Roberts" in Oceans Twelve; but for some it worked. But I would say that Oceans Twelve was my favorite because of all the traveling involved. We were able to see places around the world that some of us may never travel to. Yet, the good thing is that all the same guys are back! Yes, George Clooney is back; this is a very good thing! So there is a new chick in town she is going to be played by actress Ellen Barkin. And supposedly she is going to be "closely connected" with Linus Caldwell (Matt Damon). Wow! That is a rather large age difference. So let's face it, at the end of Oceans Twelve François Toulour (Vincent Cassel) did kinda give a tid bit of potential foreshadowing that something was going to happen in the future with the whole "playing a garden guy" at one of Terry Benedict's (Andy Garcia) casinos, as if he was going to rob it. So this was coming, it was just a matter of time till we saw another sequel. I have mixed feelings about this Oceans Thirteen business. I will most likely be seeing it, but I make no guarantees of making it my new favorite. But I do look forward to hearing the new tagline. The one for Oceans Twelve was a little clever.. I predict "Thirteen Is Not Just A Devilish Number Anymore."
Speaking of George Clooney and Las Vegas, sometime in April will be the ground breaking of Las Ramblas. This is hopefully be my future place of residence... haha, yeah right... never will I ever be able to afford living there let alone hitting a casino or two. But I will visit, perhaps. Check out the website pretty cool stuff there is in store out there. Finally, a place in Vegas where you show wear a suit jacket. Just like in the old days of The Rat Pack. I look forward to seeing that completed around the predicted time of 2011.. hmm if I save one dollar a day between now and then I could pay for a month's worth of rent.
