| Today in Movie Culture: 'Toy Story' and 'Straight Outta Compton' Meet Batman Villains and More Posted: 25 Aug 2015 01:10 AM PDT Here are a bunch of little bites to satisfy your hunger for movie culture: Movie Mashup of the Day: Can you guess what "Toy Squad" is? That's right, a mashup featuring footage from Toy Story and audio from the Suicide Squad trailer (via Cinematic Montage Creators). Song Parody of the Day: Speaking of DC Comics characters, in honor of Straight Outta Compton holding onto its box office crown this weekend, here's a new parody of the title song as performed by Batman villains. Here is "Straight Outta Gotham": Supercut of the Day: Speaking of Batman, he may a good guy, but he's also a killer. Here is a supercut counting all the lives he's ended in all of his...

| 8 Interesting Things We Learned From Quentin Tarantino's Must-Read Interview Posted: 24 Aug 2015 09:00 PM PDT In a great new interview at Vulture that everyone must read in full, Quentin Tarantino talks about everything from his favorite TV shows and copycats of his work to the contemporary relevance of his latest, The Hateful Eight, and which big-budget Hollywood movies he wishes he made. Here are the most important things we learned: 1. The Hateful Eight will accidentally feel contemporary Although he says he wasn't trying to make the movie contemporary "in any way, shape or form," Tarantino recognizes that the 19th century-set story will unintentionally seem to be about the present. "Finally, the issue of white supremacy is being talked about and dealt with. And it’s what the movie’s about," he said, in relation to...

| Max Landis Says 'American Ultra 2' Would Be a Kristen Stewart Action Movie Posted: 24 Aug 2015 07:01 PM PDT Despite being a fun, original action movie and what some are actually calling the best on-screen romance of the year, American Ultra didn't exactly light it up at the box office this weekend. Its weak sixth-place finish and $5.5 million probably won't get it a sequel (unless the international box office smokes the competition), but that doesn't mean writer Max Landis isn't already thinking about the further adventures of pot-heads-turned-assassins Mike (Jesse Eisenberg) and Phoebe (Kristen Stewart). In an interview with The Daily Beast, Landis -- who coins himself "an idea machine" -- dishes on his ideas for sequels to both American Ultra and the movie that helped launch his big-screen writing career, Chronicle. As for American Ultra, Landis says the... Read More This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| New 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' Image: Get a Rad Look at Kylo Ren's Crazy Broadsaber Posted: 24 Aug 2015 05:40 PM PDT There are a lot of aspects of the upcoming Star Wars: The Force Awakens that fans are geeking out over, but perhaps none moreso than Kylo Ren's gnarly-lookin' broadsaber. What we know about this broadsaber is that it was most likely constructed by Kylo Ren himself, and it definitely looks as if it has this amateurish rough-around-the-edges vibe, especially in the way the light appears jagged and bursting out of the sides. You get a great new look at the broadsaber in the above image, just released by Empire Magazine to promote an upcoming issue that drops this Thursday and delves deeper into the film that arrives this December 18. And we're starting to learn a little more about the new Star Wars villain, too, as information slowly inches out ahead of release...

| Nintendo Plans On Making Movies Again, But What Franchises Do They Actually Own? Posted: 24 Aug 2015 04:15 PM PDT Nintendo recently revealed that the company has finally gotten over the sting that was 1993's Super Mario Bros. and has now opened the door to letting more movies get made using the stable of video game characters it owns. Great news for people who love video game movies (or at least want them to keep getting made), but it doesn't mean that any game that you've ever played on a Nintendo is now up for grabs. Since Nintendo is a developer, a publisher, and a game console manufacturer, their name has been associated with an innumerable amount of pop culture icons for several generations, but the actual properties they themselves own isn't quite so vast. For example, Pokémon is most closely associated with Nintendo thanks to the Gameboy, but Nintendo... Read More This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| 'Karate Kid' Shocker! Was Daniel LaRusso the Real Bully All Along? Posted: 24 Aug 2015 03:00 PM PDT There were three movies made about a scrawny kid from New Jersey who learns karate in order to protect himself -- and, in some cases, his loved ones -- from some pretty bad dudes. One new video, however, is attempting to change the way we've always viewed the original Karate Kid by positioning its hero, Daniel LaRusso (Ralph Maccio), as the film's villain. Was Daniel LaRusso the real instigator all along? If he didn't pick a fight with Johnny (William Zabka) and his cronies, could we have avoided all conflict? Was Johnny just some misunderstood victim of bullying from some tough Jersey kid who played by his own rules? Check out the video below, which does a scene breakdown of all the times Daniel and Johnny's egos collided. Sure, there's...
