| Posted: 22 Feb 2016 11:00 PM PST Here are a bunch of little bites to satisfy your hunger for movie culture: Movie Characters in Real Life: Deadpool exists on the edges of the movie world and the real world, and he (via actor Ryan Reynolds) offered up a NSFW response to a petition to get the character to host Saturday Night Live: Filmmaker Parody of the Day: J.J. Abrams has already repaired the Star Trek and Star Wars franchises. Now he's on to The Matrix, Indiana Jones, Saw and more: Vintage Image of the Day: John Wayne looks upon a geiger counter on the set of The Conqueror, which opened 60 years ago today. The film was shot on a nuclear test site, which is said to be the blame for the deaths of Wayne and much of the rest of the cast and...

| Who Wants To Go for a Car Ride with Morgan Freeman? Here's How Posted: 22 Feb 2016 10:00 PM PST There may not be a more soothing voice in Hollywood than that of Morgan Freeman -- and now you can use that voice to guide you to important destinations, avoiding traffic along the way. The navigational app Waze has partnered with Morgan Freeman for a limited time as part of a promo for London Has Fallen (in theaters March 4), with Freeman's voice available as an option beginning today, February 22. But there's more! Freeman won't be, well, Morgan Freeman -- he'll be doling out driving directions as his character from London Has Fallen, Vice President Trumbull, and he'll be speaking to you, the driver, as if you were the President of the United States. So if you ever wanted to have Morgan Freeman's voice guide you through a complicated... Read More This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
| Ferris Bueller Would Probably Want You to Blow Off Work and Celebrate FerrisFest Instead Posted: 22 Feb 2016 09:00 PM PST Ferris Bueller's Day Off turns 30 this year. If knowing that it's been three decades since John Hughes' classic high school comedy first came out fills you with dread regarding the unstoppable march of time, we at least have a consolation thought to offer. If you're old enough that those 30 years bother you on an existential level, you're also an adult and hopefully you're an adult with a regular job and a steady income and some open vacation days in May. That's when the city of Chicago is celebrating all that is Ferris Bueller. Yes, there will soon be a city-wide celebration of that plucky kid who faked a cough, lied to his parents and then eventually stormed a parade float. Here's what FerrisFest has planned. - A 2-day tour that will take... Read More This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |

| New 'Captain America: Civil War' Images Reveal the Villain Crossbones Posted: 22 Feb 2016 04:30 PM PST Iron Man and Captain America will most certainly be laying the smackdown on each other when Captain America: Civil War hits theaters on May 6, but they'll be other foes to contend with, too. Like Crossbones, formerly Brock Rumlow (Frank Grillo), who we last met in Captain America: Winter Soldier. You may recall how 'ol Rumlow turned out to be a secret HYDRA agent posing as a member of S.H.I.E.L.D., and when we last saw him he was being manhandled by Captain America. Now he's back in Civil War as Crossbones, and Empire has our first look at the baddie (who's probably looking for some vicious payback) along with other images and a new Civil War-related cover for their February issue. Here's Crossbones, whose role in the film is still a bit of a... Read More This posting includes an audio/video/photo media file: Download Now |
