Check out the latest trailer for the upcoming film, "Suicide Squad," In theaters August 5.

Directed by David Ayer and starring Will Smith, Joel Kinnaman, Margot Robbie, Jared Leto, Jai Courtney, Cara Delevingne and Viola Davis.


Plot: It feels good to be bad… Assemble a team of the world’s most dangerous, incarcerated Super Villains, provide them with the most powerful arsenal at the government’s disposal, and send them off on a mission to defeat an enigmatic, insuperable entity. U.S. intelligence officer Amanda Waller has determined only a secretly convened group of disparate, despicable individuals with next to nothing to lose will do. However, once they realize they weren’t picked to succeed but chosen for their patent culpability when they inevitably fail, will the Suicide Squad resolve to die trying, or decide it’s every man for himself?


Written and directed by Ayer based on the characters from DC Comics, the film also stars Jai Courtney (“Insurgent”), Jay Hernandez (“Takers”), Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje (“Thor: The Dark World”), Ike Barinholtz (“Neighbors”), Scott Eastwood (“Fury”), Cara Delevingne (“Paper Towns”), Adam Beach (“Cowboys & Aliens”), and Karen Fukuhara in her feature film debut.

STEPDAD

Pilot Episode

73451058?profile=RESIZE_1024x102473450994?profile=RESIZE_1024x1024

VIEW ON YOUTUBE

Stepdad was created by animated television writers Brian Caban, Michael Martin and writer/creator Floyd Smith.

Stepdad is an animated show about an upper-class suburban family who come to realize life is not as picture-perfect as it seems. Everything falls apart when the mom, Megan Peterson, began cheating on her mayor-elect husband, Scott Peterson. The unfortunate, yet hilarious part is the affair is taking place with a black dude from the hood named Tyrone. This cartoon is a blend of extreme stereotypes, punchy humor, and social satire. It pokes fun at real life issues and current events in a way that is funny, yet relatable to all audiences.

The story takes place after the couples’ divorce when Scott moves in with his next-door neighbor, Pedro. Scott loses his house, his job, and on top of it all, Tyrone is living next door as a Stepdad to his family. The cartoon follows Scott’s new life as an unemployed ex-husband, and Tyrone’s, as an unemployed Stepdad. It also follows the life of Seth, Scott Peterson’s son, and his imaginary friends Cow and Megabot, resulting in hilarious consequences and wacky adventures.

“It has been tremendous fun developing this creation with the rest of my partners and it’s exciting to now have Dough From Da Go joining the Marketing team,” commented Brian Caban, who is also President of the Stepdad brand. “The stories that underscore adventure and fun will be relatable to teens and adults throughout the globe and we're excited to unleash this piece of work.”

Breakdown of "StepDad" characters:

Tyrone is the Stepdad that represents everything Scott Peterson thinks about the inner-city. Tyrone is a loud, abrasive, weed-smoking felon with no dreams or aspirations. His biggest crime was stealing Scott’s wife, Megan Peterson. At the same time, it was also his biggest accomplishment in order to move out of the inner-city. He brings his ghetto lifestyle and in-your-face attitude to the calm, quiet, and unsuspecting suburbs.

Scott is the recently unemployed and divorced father trying to get his life back in order. After resigning as mayor, catching his wife cheating, and losing his home, he decided to move in with his next-door neighbor, Pedro. Scott’s mild-mannered personality, paired with his new spontaneous lifestyle, make everyday an interesting and entertaining adventure.

Megan is the ex-wife of Scott Peterson, who has always had a fascination with black culture and rap music. Which ultimately led to her affair with Tyrone. She’s a naive, suburban soccer mom from an upper-class family. She ended up sleeping with her new lover for a little excitement after a long, tenuous, boring marriage with her ex-husband, Scott Peterson.

Seth is that anti-social fat kid that everyone has known at some point in their life. He has no friends, a broken family, and is constantly bullied at school. He is not very close to his father or mother, but has hopes that his Stepdad, Tyrone, will help him become cool and more accepted by his peers. After eating some of Tyrone’s “special brownies”, he becomes friends with his newly acquainted and imaginary friends, Cow and Megabot.

Cow is a laid-back smooth-talking cow who only appears when people are high. His only objective in life is evil, and the only person he likes is Tyrone, his stoner buddy. He also has an ongoing beef with an evil robot named Megabot.

Megabot is a super hero from the planet Neutron, who Seth admires, but only comes to life when Seth is high. He is secretly evil and always trying to kill his arch nemesis, Cow, and is also constantly plotting on killing Seth and his entire “family”.

Pedro is Scott Peterson’s Hispanic neighbor who has decided to let Scott move in after his divorce. The only problem is that Pedro is crazy, eccentric, and extremely paranoid. His constant angry tirades and sending Scott on bizarre journeys ultimately result in very humorous and entertaining situations.

Video After The Jump

Los Angeles Lakers player Nick Young has gotten a temporary reprieve from his fiancee, Iggy Azalea, but he might want to remove all sharp objects from their crib.

As we previously reported, Swaggy P was unknowingly filmed last month by his teammate D'Angelo Russell while admitting to cheating on Iggy.

12352063678?profile=original

In a new interview with Tampa Bay radio station Wild 94.1, Iggy, speaks out about the situation, not giving a damn about the bro code and the repercussions Young will face if he slips up again.

"Whatever bro code is or whatever unspoken code that is I don't really care because I have a actual spoken commitment that you're gonna get married to me. And that involves not doing any of those other things," she says. "Screw guy code. How about what this person said in the video? That's what I care about sitting at home, obviously. I'm not cool with it. You will have half a penis. I already said. 'Just one more video. Just one more thing and you will lose a quarter of your meat."

DMX is in the middle of a bizarre situation involving a $30,000 stolen watch and sexual misconduct accusations.

X, real name Earl Simmons, brought a woman and a group of people he met at a Hollywood bar back to his hotel room in Orange County Friday, April 8th.

TMZ reports that soon afterwards Dark Man's team called the police when they noticed the woman had left and the rapper's expensive watch was missing.

When Costa Mesa Police arrived on the scene they found the woman, who was in possession of the watch. After being arrested for theft she claimed that DMX had sexually assaulted her.

12352073477?profile=original

Sources close to X told TMZ that the alleged thief/sexual assault victim is full of it. They say the hotel room was full of people and at no time did the "Ruff Ryder's Anthem" hit maker ever hook up with her.

Nevertheless, her claim is being investigated by police.

Will Smith and his wife Racquel were victims of a road rage shooting in New Orleans Saturday, April 9

Video And Pics After The Jump

NEW ORLEANS (AP) — Former New Orleans Saints player Will Smith was shot and killed Saturday after a traffic accident.

An emailed statement from New Orleans city coroner Jeffrey C. Rouse said that Smith died "of multiple gunshot wounds" after a traffic accident in the city's Lower Garden District. The former defensive end was 34 years old.

A tweet from the verified account of Greg Bensel, Saints vice president of communications and broadcasting, expressed condolences to Smith's family.

Smith appeared to be the victim of a road rage accident.

26322103476_3a1c9759ec_b.jpg


The New Orleans police said in a statement that Smith was driving in a Mercedes late Saturday when his vehicle was hit from behind by another vehicle, an orange Hummer H2. That caused Smith's vehicle to hit a grey Chevrolet Impala in front of him. Two acquaintances of Smith's were in the Impala but not injured.

12352067866?profile=original

At some point in the ensuing incident, Smith and the driver of the Hummer exchanged words, police said. The driver of the Hummer pulled out a gun and shot Smith multiple times, the police said. He also shot Smith's wife, who was traveling with him. She was taken to a local hospital.

12352068258?profile=original

Police said they arrived on the scene at around 11:29 p.m. and found Smith in the middle of the street, partially inside his vehicle. He died on the scene, they said.

12352068301?profile=original

Police said the 30-year-old driver of the Hummer was taken into custody and was being interviewed by detectives; the weapon used in the shooting was also recovered, police said.

Smith, native of Queens, New York, played for Ohio State's 2002 national championship team and was a first-round draft choice by New Orleans in 2004.

He led the Saints with a career-high 13 sacks in 2009, when the club won its only Super Bowl.

He last played in an NFL regular season game in 2012, finishing his career with 67 ½ sacks.

During the 2013 preseason, a knee injury forced him onto injured reserve. He was signed in the 2014 offseason by New England but did not make the Patriots' regular season roster.

After football, he settled in Louisiana, his wife's native state. His shooting came during the weekend of the French Quarter festival, a popular festival featuring local music and food.

Smith leaves behind his wife, Racquel, and three children.
