VIDEO: Watch the Jersey Shore Cast Get Chased By Tigers in a Roman Colliseum

Posted on January 28, 2011 by | Leave a comment

If we could switch out real events for the hilariously animated translation produced by Taiwanese news service NMA, life would be so much more entertaining. Ricky Gervais would have been Tool Time’d by Tim Allen after the Golden Globes, Jeff Zucker would breathe fire , Charlie Sheen would have coked up hotel meltdowns — oh, wait — and the Jersey Shore cast would be greeted violently in Italy by riotous locals, a pickle cannon, and a gladiator showdown in which Snooki is forced to out-pace a tiger for survival. Taiwanese justice awaits you after the jump.

VIDEO: Researchers Create Fully Functional Terminator Hand

Posted on January 27, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Today in science catching up with science-fiction: German researchers have constructed a fully functional terminator hand. As the video demonstrates, this robot hand can emerge from baseball bat assaults totally unscathed, just like real terminators. My question: Why we are seeing more progress in the creation of machines that are supposed to wipe out humans rather than say, curing cancer? Anyway, the video of the creepy, moving robot fingers getting hit by bats is after the jump. How many years until we get the full T-100? Place your bets!

IMDB Thinks Asians Are Pretty Much Interchangable

Posted on January 16, 2011 by | Leave a comment

So, while I was underwhelmed by The Green Hornet , the best part was definitely Jay Chou’s Kato. Or, if I go by IMDB, that would be John Cho’s Kato. Yes, 38 year-old Korean-American John Cho is basically the same as 31 year-old Taiwanese Jay Chou. It reminds me how much I liked Ken Jeong’s Sulu in Star Trek last year. IMDB fixed the problem, but the long memory of the internet has the proof after the jump. [ /Film ]

Critics’ Choice Awards Love The Social Network And Natalie Portman As Much As Everyone Else Did

Posted on January 15, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Last night the Broadcast Film Critics Association doled out their yearly accolades for the best acheivements in film, with many of the usual suspects getting the gold. The Social Network won best picture, Natalie Portman best actress, Colin Firth best actor, and so on (although Inception cleaned up fairly well in the technical categories. Might this be a portent for bigger things?). At this rate, the Golden Globes might be a bit of snoozefest. The full list of winners after the jump.

The Bellamy Brothers to Britney Spears: You Ripped Off Our Song!

Posted on January 13, 2011 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

And here we thought Britney Spears was merely ripping off a cheesy old pickup line with the lyrics to her newest #1 single, ” Hold It Against Me .” Well, The Bellamy Brothers, singers of “If I Said You Had a Beautiful Body, Would You Hold It Against Me,” claim it’s their cheesy line dammit! The country duo says it has “no personal beef” with Britney, however, “in all honesty, we feel completely ripped off. Where’s the originality?” LOL. She hasn’t had any of that in years, but that doesn’t mean she’s to blame here. Anyway, the Bellamys aren’t going to sue, they’re just pissed. Do they have reason to be? Listen to the two versions after the jump … The Bellamy Brothers – If I Said You Had A Beautiful Body Britney Spears – Hold It Against Me (Full Version)

See How Many Armless-Surfing Shots You Can Spot in the Soul Surfer Teaser

Posted on January 13, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Apparently Soul Surfer tells the inspiring story of Bethany Hamilton, “who lost her arm in a shark attack and courageously overcame all odds to become a champion again, through her sheer determination and unwavering faith.” That’s a hell of a true story. Good luck figuring it out from this first teaser trailer though! This preview looks more like the inspiring story of attractive kids hanging out at the beach and surfing and then hanging out with Helen Hunt and Dennis Quaid. So just how did this genius marketing team manage to cut a trailer for a film where the protagonist is missing an arm without actually ever showing the one-armed girl? Well, upon closer inspection, they didn’t quite manage it, but points for effort! I’ve provided screen shots after the jump in case you blinked.

Trailer Intro for John Carpenter’s The Ward: Who’s That in the Shower?

Posted on January 3, 2011 by | Leave a comment

Welcome to 2011, where we finally transition “trailer announcements” and teasers with no actual footage to “trailer intros.” In the case of this presumably leaked look at Amber Heard in John Carpenter’s The Ward , this term literally means the first half of the trailer. Coming soon: The Movieline 10-second Verdict. But yes, the first look at The Ward offers several mysteries to ponder including: “Why did Heard set her house on fire?” and “Who/what is that creepy shadow in the community shower?”

Even if he was never a marquee name, Postlethwaite did amazing work in a wide array of films including The Usual Suspects , Romeo + Juliet and this year’s The Town and Inception . After working with him in The Lost World: Jurassic Park and Amistad , Steven Spielberg described Postlethwaite as “the best actor in the world.” Click after the jump for a short montage of screen shots featuring the actor, which serves as a reminder of how many movies benefited from his talent.
