Following up their 100 best one liners made before a kill in movies, Burger Fiction has now done it up with the magically hilarious lines people say right after an on-screen kill. There is so much Arnold in here, it makes me happy. I guess, a lot of James Bond too. And Bruce Willis. Apple…

Just a Mouse Trap Slicing and Smashing an Egg

I really shouldn’t enjoy this as much as I do but you don’t choose what you love, you know? Seeing a mouse trap crack open an egg is so much fun and so perfect that I want to break all my eggs like this every morning. It happens so fast, the trap snaps in place…

The Real Reason You Wouldn’t Want to Live On an All-Local Diet

An investigation into several locavore restaurants revealed that what was written on the menus wasn’t at all what was showing up at the tables. But the underlying reason for the problem is much bigger than just the restaurants: it’s the all-local diet itself.

Known Quack Forced to Refund Customers for Lying About Effects of Tanning Beds

Here’s the thing about tanning beds: just like the sunlight they imitate, they can increase the risk of skin cancer. Which is why anyone who bought one from Mercola is going to be getting a refund.

20 Totally Silly Movie Mistakes That Somehow Made It Into the Final Version

Oopsies in movies are the best because they’re so hilariously out of place. Like having a car in the shot of a Braveheart battle sequence or having a camera man inside Hogwarts in Harry Potter or seeing a human arm pat down a velociraptor in Jurassic Park. These little big errors don’t always ruin a…

How Did This Escaped Chimp Not Get Zapped Into Oblivion?

In a scene eerily reminiscent of Rise of the Planet of the Apes, an escaped chimpanzee sought refuge on the power lines of a Japanese suburb. The chimp was eventually subdued after a frantic two-hour police chase, but you have to wonder: Why didn’t he get zapped by the power lines? Here’s the answer. The…

New Independence Day: Resurgence Footage Reveals Giant Monsters and a Huge Celebration

Even if you are a huge Independence Day fan, that first trailer may have left you scratching your head. It looked cool, but it didn’t quite live up to the pinnacle of spectacle that was blowing up the White House. A new trailer shown at CinemaCon 2016, however, does. We start with a massive celebration.…

Smart Scalpel Can Distinguish Between Healthy and Cancerous Brain Tissue

Performing any kind of surgery on the brain is already a tremendously difficult procedure, but removing only cancerous tissue is even more of a challenge because it’s very difficult to visually distinguish the good brain from the bad. But what if the scalpel in a surgeon’s hand could tell the difference between the two? Researchers…

Jason Statham Versus a Giant Shark Sounds Like a Goddamn Great Time at the Movies

Forget that movie where Blake Lively hides from a shark on a rock. Give us, instead, Jason Fuckin’ Statham going up against a bloodthirsty, 60-foot-long Megalodon that’s somehow been chilling in the Mariana Trench for millions and millions of years. We’re gonna need a bigger boat… full of popcorn. Meg, based on Steve Alten’s 1997…

Saharan Silver Ants Have Evolved an Awesome Way of Fighting Extreme Desert Heat

The strikingly beautiful Saharan silver ant is capable of withstanding some of the most extreme temperatures on the planet. New research shows that their silver sheen serves as a heat-repellent system, reflecting incoming sunlight like a prism.

Here’s Your First Official Look at Civil War‘s Big Villain, Baron Zemo

Considering we’ve seen or heard of absolutely nothing since Daniel Brühl was cast in Captain America: Civil War as the long-time Cap foe Baron Helmut Zemo, it’s kind of surprising how incredibly nondescript this first-ever look at him actually is. Not even a purple face mask in sight. Yes, you’d be hard-pressed to imagine that…

It informs so much of Luke’s journey from farmhand to Jedi Knight. It’s a chapter in the tragic tale of Anakin Skywalker. But in the initial script, it wasn’t going to happen. Chewbacca actor…
