Guillotine Slingshot Is Probably the Most Dangerous Elasticized Weapon Ever Created

So to celebrate the upcoming film loosely based on that story, Joerg’s created what has to be…

Ron Howard in talks to direct Neil Gaiman’s The Graveyard Book

It’s been a long time since we’ve heard any news about Disney’s movie adaptation of Neil Gaiman’s The Graveyard Book.

Shane Carruth’s new movie could leave you even more bewildered than Primer

Nine years ago, writer-director Shane Carruth left Sundance in awe with Primer, a time travel film that was simple in production but insanely complex in its plot. Primer took a basic set-up, a time machine, and managed to turn a low-budget film into one of the smartest, and also scientific jargon-filled movies in recent memory.…

Honest trailer for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull is absolutely brutal

Finally the Honest Trailer series takes down the latest Indiana Jones disaster. “With sets that look worse than Legends of the Hidden Temple,” this honest breakdown is so dead on it kind of makes you cringe. Ugh that line about the treasure being knowledge still hurts our brains. Overall this video kills it, but be…

Instead, Amazon.com has snapped it up and is developing the series in hopes of showing it on their instant video service. The 30-minute episodes would appear on Amazon as original programming.…

So many movie promo posters fall flat (or rely too much on the contrasting orange and blue), but this unused promo poster for The Incredibles captures the action-packed scale of Pixar’s film. It was hand painted by Robert McGinnis, the artist who painted the iconic movie posters for Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Barbarella, and many of…

Listen to the real, undubbed voice of Ghostbusters II‘s Vigo the Carpathian

Vigo, the ghostly, painting-bound tyrant of Ghostbusters II was played on screen by boxer Wilhelm von Homburg, but, discontent with Homburg’s voice work, the filmmakers brought in Max Von Sydow to perform Vigo’s lines in an uncredited role. Just how did Homburg’s voice acting stack up against the Exorcist star’s? This video, posted by makeup…
