Marlon & Naked Movie Review

Yesterday Marlon Wayans returned to prime time TV. Who remembers the Wayans Brothers? His new sitcom is simply called Marlon. As expected, Marlon is hilarious like the man it is named after. 2 episodes aired back to back on NBC. So, families were rewarded with a full hour of funny. I enjoyed every minute of it.
Marlon goes wild. I’ve never seen a comedian more physical than him. Have you? He reminded me of Martin. I feel Marlon has gotten funnier over the years.
The other characters were great too. I got love for Essence Atkins and her portrayal of Marlon’s ex wife. Plus, Bresha Webb had a nice role.
I want to see Marlonsucceed. There are 8 shows already lined up; and I believe there’s potential for more. If you want to literally laugh your ass off, then watch Marlon Wayans perform on Mondays.
In addition, Marlon Wayans has a new movie on Netflix called Naked. The movie was released on August 11th. I highly recommend seeing the movie. I watched it last night. You’ll enjoy the film because it’s original.
The film is about a substitute teacher (Marlon Wayans) marrying a doctor (Regina Hall). Her father thinks she could do a lot better. I don’t want to give away too much of the plot because I want you to watch it. However, Marlon’s character gets stuck in an elevator naked over and over again. I believe you’ll like it.

Wayans plays the hell out of the character. Overall, Naked was well written. I gave it 5 stars because that’s the highest rating you could give. Brian McKnight makes a noteworthy appearance. Does he get naked too? You got to watch and see.
Marlon Wayans isn’t putting all his eggs into one basket. He is diversifying his talents. Moreover, he has mastered comedy.

Who Is the Best James Bond?

Who Is the Best James Bond?

Daniel Craig confirmed that he will return to play James Bond in an upcoming film. At Guru Jay, we recognize the best. Which brings me to my question: Who is the best James Bond? Is Daniel Craig the best to ever play James Bond? I want to know your thoughts. Here are mine.

First of all, I don’t believe Daniel Craig is the best. I thought the producers were trying to find a new James Bond. Didn’t you think the same thing? What happened? Daniel Craig doesn’t compare to Sean Connery or Pierce Brosnan. I’m sorry. Now his movies are great but his acting is only good when compared to the legends. I don’t think I’m being harsh. Maybe, I am but you want my honest opinion I’ll give it to you.

Daniel Craig doesn’t have charisma like Connery and Brosnan. There is a reason our grandmas love Sean Connery to a fault. And our mothers couldn’t get enough of Brosnan back in the day. I don’t want to knock Daniel Craig too much, but it’s time for a new James Bond.

I believe the greatest actor to play James Bond is Sean Connery. However, I believe the best James Bond is Pierce Brosnan. Sean Connery is one of the greatest actors of all time, but he’s not the essence of James Bond. Pierce Brosnan is the essence of James Bond. When James Bond comes to mind, I think of Piece Brosnan first.

What are your favorite James Bond movies? My favorite James Bond movie is Die Another Day. I enjoyed the Halle Berry iconic bikini beach scene. After you read this blog, I recommend you check out this interesting Wikipedia Page. You’ll discover there has been a total of 13 James Bonds.

To conclude, the second best James Bond is Sean Connery. Daniel Craig is probably in the top five but Pierce Bronsan is the best James Bond unequivocally. Let’s start the discussion.

What Is Game of Thrones Without Emilia Clarke?

What Is Game of Thrones Without Emilia Clarke?

I blogged about Emilia Clarke’s portrayal of Daenerys Targaryen as a major reason people watch Game of Thrones in a recent blogpost entitled Why Game of Thrones Is the Number 1 TV Show. I still stand by that assertion. Without Emilia Clarke, Game of Thrones would not be the same though. What Chris Martin is to Coldplay and what Kaley Cuoco is to the Big Bang Theory, Emilia Clarke is to Game of Thrones.

Her character and the actress herself has evolved through the years. This blogpost hopes to highlight or at least shine a light on some of her excellence. In my eyes, Emilia Clarke is the English version of Scarlett Johansson. You can’t deny that her beauty is a factor for fans tuning in every Sunday on HBO. Moreover, you can’t deny that her talent is another factor fans are glueing their eyeballs to their 4K Ultra and HD screens. The equation is simple. Beauty + Talent = Movie Star.

The Hollywood actress turned 30 years old on October 23rd. She started filming Game of Thrones in her mid-twenties. I believe she has became more beautiful and more talented within that time frame. Moreover, she has a good sense of humor and is a pleasant personality, which is rare. I recommend watching a few interviews and getting to know her when you get the chance. I’m providing a brief clip at the end of this post for your enjoyment.

What is Game of Thrones without Emilia Clarke? Her character’s long golden flowing locks are signature to the series. Plus, I can see the show staying in production for another 5 years. You see Game of Thrones is based on a book by George R.R. Martin. Emilia Clarke is appealing to book lovers, especially fantasy genre aficionados in the realm of television. Fans on both sides are pleased with her characterization. Chime in your comments. You’re welcome at GuruJay.com.

A Farewell to Orphan Black

BY: GURU JAY

A Farewell to Orphan Black

My British friends and many Americans were fans of Orphan Black. I decided to watch Orphan Black after noticing my Twitter feed full of #OrphanBlack s. I had featured the show in a blog post back in March 2014. My blog has been around for a relatively long time on the Internet.

I’ve been trying to figure out who is Elizabeth Childs? So, I pulled an all nighter Saturday to get to the bottom of it. I still haven’t been to sleep. But I’m having fun blogging. Time flies when you’re doing something you love to do.

I checked it out to see if it was any good. Overall, I was impressed. The concept was intriguing.

Orphan Black explored urgent issues in today’s society. It also showed a refreshing perspective on life in general. Now that it is completed, I plan on watching every single episode. I wasn’t late to the bandwagon because I’m not a bandwagon jumper. I was always aware of the show’s greatness. That’s why they call me the Entertainment Guru.

There’s just so much TV you can consume in your personal life. You got to make time for books, music, comedy, and movies too.

For the record, I didn’t binge watch Orphan Black. I watched 2 episodes through and through. We do ourselves a disservice when we binge watch, sometimes.

The genius of Orphan Black is that it was an imported TV show. Originality is rare in the film business. Hollywood remakes Remakes. You read that right. Orphan Black was as original as they came in entertainment and showbiz.

I wonder what’s next for Tatiana Maslany and the amazing cast. It appears Orphan Black is officially ending after 5 seasons. The show is over. They say it’s a wrap. 5 seasons is a long enough time. Plus, I believe the whole story was told and that’s what is important. This is a farewell to Orphan Black.

Why John Cena Should Star in More Movies

    John Cena is arguably the biggest name in World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) right now. He picked up where the Rock left off and added a few ingredients. If you smelt what the Rock was cooking, then you know John Cena’s secret recipe is classified.

    He has built a durable brand, which is evolving over time. Without question, the wrestler is an incredible actor. Cena plays a convincing part in the Marine movie. In fact, his portrayal convinced me to buy the DVD. I believe his movie career will take off exponentially this year because Hollywood is finally recognizing his star potential.

    Have you seen Daddy’s Home? I haven’t seen it yet, but I look forward to watching it soon. That way when Daddy’s Home 2 comes out, the first one will be fresh in my mind. John Cena has a major role in the movies.

    His most recent movie is The Wall produced by Amazon Studios released in May. The film rises to the occasion and tells a vivid war story. Cena portrays a realistic staff sergeant.

    The action star embraces discipline and embodies strength. Despite constant pressure, he maintains a consistent work ethic night after night. Moreover, his unbreakable mindset allows him to work out hard on a daily basis. We all know how difficult sticking to a rigid routine can be; and, John Cena sticks to his guns.

    It helps that his wife Nikki Bella is also a professional wrestler. She helps him in his efforts to maintain focus and superstar status. What are the odds that both husband and wife do the same thing for a living?

    John is just scratching the surface in showbiz. I expect to see him in more blockbusters. It’s only a matter of time before producers realize they’re getting a steal of a deal signing Cena to a contract.

A Conversation On the Greatness of Brie Larson

It’s been reported in Vanity Fair and via other sources that Brie Larson gets by with a little help from her friends Jennifer Lawrence and Emma Stone. Talk about star power! Lawrence and Stone are two of Hollywood’s finest actresses. As you’ll soon discover, Miss Larson keeps very good company.

Emma Stone won the Oscar for La La Land this year and Jennifer Lawrence received one for Silver Linings Playbook in 2012. Clearly, Brie Larson belongs in the best actress conversation as well. Brie earned an Academy Award for her performance in Room last year. Her bevy of talents should be showcased like Olivia Wilde’s. Don’t underestimate her capabilities.

Are you looking forward to seeing Brie enter the Marvel universe as Captain Marvel or what? Who would love watching Larson and Scarlett Johansson perform in scenes together? In a sense, Larson is the antithesis of Angelina Jolie. While Angelina portrays the bad girl image, Brie is a good girl. What is more, she embraces characters who are largely likable protagonists.

Everyone can agree that this celebrity is destined for greatness. You’ll soon find her footprints cemented in stone on Hollywood Boulevard. Plus, you won’t find a more polished gem in showbiz anywhere. Producers see Brie’s smile and personality as entertainment assets. She looks like a younger Julia Roberts and acts like Sandra Bullock.

Many celebrities come across as disingenuous. However, Brie seems pleasant and humble. Did you know she was raised in Sacramento, California? She went to school for acting at the American Conservatory Theater.

I highly recommend watching Brie Larson movies including: The Gambler, Free Fire, and Kong: Skull Island. She plays Mark Wahlberg’s love interest in the Gambler. Additionally, she is the leading actress of Free Fire and Kong: Skull Island. Also, I look forward to seeing the Glass Castle, Basmati Blues and Unicorn Store.

The Revelation of TV Action Star Jaimie Alexander

BY: GURU JAY

Jaimie Alexander kicks ass and takes names on the Blindspot television series. Blindspot is a popular TV thriller airing on NBC Wednesdays. It is currently in the 2nd season.
Jaimie Alexander phenomenally plays Jane Doe on Blindspot. She doesn’t miss a beat working with the FBI. Moreover, the show keeps you in ultimate suspense. Another angle pops up, just when you figure out a clue.
You see her tattoos help solve pertinent cases. They give the FBI a significant edge. I recommend watching Blindspot every week if you enjoy putting pieces together. You’ll love unwrapping the mystery with likable characters.
Also, if you like Kerry Washington on Scandal, then you’ll like Jaimie Alexander on Blindspot. Scandal gives you the TV Politics and Blindspot gives you the TV Action. I wonder when Washington’s and Alexander’s paths will cross. I know when they do meet, we’re destined to see greatness.
In a sense, Blindspot is similar to Quantico. Jaimie Alexander is the centerpiece like Priyanka Chopra. In the latest episode, the DOJ investigates a supposed leak. They try to pin responsibility on Assistant Director Weller, but Jane Doe sticks up for her “man.” There’s so much packed in one episode to make your head explode.
Blindspot deals with current issues in an explosive way. They get to the bottom of it without beating around the bush too much. The question is can you handle all the action smacking you in your face.
Jaimie Alexander reminds me of Krysten Ritter who plays Marvel’s Jessica Jones (private investigator) on Netflix. She may be slim but she has super strength. In Jessica’s case she has superpowers.

I look forward to seeing Jaimie pave the lane on Hollywood Boulevard. The 32 year-old actress deserves to be in more movies. She is destined to appear on the silver screen.
