  • The man behind the Xenomorph: Alien tester footage released

    Well, that may very well be scarier than the full xenomorph costume that I first encountered at the ripe old age of seven. I’m pretty sure that I won’t see the movie the same way again.

  • Morgan Freeman on Helium – Alvin has competition

    Morgan-Freeman-Helium

    Here’s something different – Morgan Freeman illustrates the confusing nature of our universe by inhaling helium and speaking on Through the Wormhole (which is a really neat show if you are into educational & entertaining programming.) For someone who has been able to make a career out of his soothing baritone voice, the helium shift really strikes you.

    I think he could be a cameo in the 17th Alvin and the Chipmunks movie! Let him narrate, Shawshank style. I think that the industry would collapse upon itself in awe.

  • Jurasic Park 4 production halted, creative staff to be tweaked

    Jurassic-Park_Logo

    Bad news on the Jurassic Park 4 front – you do know they are making this, right? – the production has been halted, allegedly because of disagreements between the creative staff and the production people. An age-old Hollywood conflict, the production house usually wins out, tossing the folks that don’t want to listen to the money and bringing in new yes-men. As of now, director Colin Trevorrow is still in charge, but things could change in an instant.

  • Horrible Sci-Fi Speeches

    We all know that science fiction is a movie genre full of inspirational and amazing stories like those from Star Wars and Star Trek, but there are also some pretty horrific moments like the ones shared by high-quality productions like Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus…

    It’s a late share, but it’s worth your time anyway!

  • Criticize the Dark Knight Rises?

    You mad, bro?

    Adamant fans are loosing their minds and posting some pretty vicious responses to the handful of negative reviews that The Dark Knight Rises has garnered all across the internet. Nolan’s telling everyone to chill, because he (and anyone sensible) knows this movie will be awesome, no matter what one out of every ten “professional” critics thinks.

    I think the only thing sillier than fans attacking the negative reviews would be the reviewing critics themselves. Who thinks this movie is going to be a letdown? I just can’t think there’d be any other reason for a negative review besides serving as link bait (and ad revenue from all the raging fans).

    Anywho, I’m just ready for the weekend so I can watch this thing!

    Wild Fact:
    Did you know that Bane is a republican, and Nolan wrote his part to defile presidential hopeful Mitt Romney and the entire Republican Party? Naw, that’s impossible. Silly Rush Limbaugh. Seriously, you’re a sillyhead. Batman has no politics, only justice!

  • Indiana Jones in a FINAL crusade to the Bermuda Triangle?

    Indy meets
    Cult sci-fi thrillers!

    Well, I stumbled across some murmurs through the film industry today that’s pretty dang interesting. Rumor has it that a fifth and final installment of the immensely popular Indiana Jones movie franchise is in the works. The latest film was Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, which came out in 2008. Prior to that, the series had been inactive since 1989’s Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.

    The film is still in planning stages, and has not been fully confirmed, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it is. Both Harrison Ford and Shia LeBouf will return as the father and son adventure pair that was revealed in the fourth film. Perhaps the most exciting aspect of the film is that it is supposed to take place in and around the mysterious Bermuda Triangle. I think as long as George Lucas and crew cut down on the CGI-fest that was Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, and focus on the real action and plot that made the first three films such huge successes, Indiana Jones can end in style.

    Look forward to more news as this develops!

    Its all over the place in various states of fractured factuality, but I think the sole concept is true – there is a fifth Indy coming, but I don’t think it’s next year. YMMV

  • SquidFit: Get ripped in 3 weeks

    Squid Fitness is proud to announce its first weight training line – the Robert Downey Jr.’s Practical Pecs System. This state of the art fitness routine was developed in preparation of filming Iron Man 2, which recently came out in theaters across the world.

    In a period of three weeks, Mr. Downey was able to put on 20 lbs of muscle with this amazing workout! Who wouldn’t want to do that?

    According to his personal trainer, Downey pushed a heavy wheelbarrow around an obstacle course, swung sledgehammers, sand-filled firehoses, and more. It was a cost-effective and natural alternative to traditional weight training, and it had rapid success for Downey, who needed to buff up for his return in Iron Man 2.

    I say well played sir. That’s a pretty dang sweet routine to get results like that in just three weeks. Who knows how big you could get if you worked out for a longer period of time? I say pretty big.

    So…who’s ready to hit the weights?

  • The Sequels that BOMBED

    explosion

    I found this great image featuring the biggest bombing sequels of the past 25 years, and I thought You might like to see for yourself just how awful some of these movies were. I mean, I have never even heard of the existence of some of these titles, so you KNOW they must be terrible!

    If you’ve seen any of these films, please share. I foresee a possible movie marathon with some of these titles just so we can rip them apart ourselves!

    Enjoy. The image is courtesy of [moviefill.com]

  • No gas for Transformers 2

    Apparently Transformers 2 is not doing so well financially, and now that General Motors is tuning down it’s sponsorship in the film, money has become even tighter.

    It’s reasonable to assume that Micheal Bay is pissed; almost as pissed as Patrick was at me during the filming of Late Night Stranger:
