I do not know how many of you are stoked about this movie, but Grumms and I first got a glimpse of it during Celebration IV in Los Angeles.  Let me tell you this;  even if this movie is the worst thing to hit the silver screen since George Lucas in his infinite wisdom decided to put a gay Hutt in the Clone Wars movie (seriously George WTF were you thinking man), it will still be worth watching. THIS MOVIE IS EVERY SINGLE STAR WARS GEEK'S FANTASY! Do not argue with me on this.  You would give your left testicle to be able to do a secret mission and break into Skywalker Ranch.  ...

Your Wednesday Lunchtime Spielberg Factoid

If you are a major Bollywood director, you will make some schweet cash.  Steven Spielberg makes some hella green-backs.  Not only does he get paid the big bucks up front, but he also sets his ass up to make some money on the back door as well.  For Jurrasic Park he got $250k up front but got gross and profit participations as well. He paid himself $1.5 million for Raiders and took a percentage of the gross as well.  I am sure Lucas made some little gold dildo idols as well, so I am sure he made some black market cash to wet his little Indy whistle. Jurrassic II  was a fucking whopper...$72,000,000.  God damn ...

Stormtroopers Time Off

I have this great fascination on the topic of "what a Stormtrooper does when they get off work."  Really.  What would you do if you were a Stormtrooper, you worked for the largest evil corporation in the galaxy and someone actually gave you the day off of work.  It is just one of those silly little geek things that compels my mind into a whirlwind of senseless fodder. This video really struck me as funny because I never really thought too much into the world of Trooper calisthenics.  I bet it would be quite a bitch to get your heart rate up when your body movement is constricted by the armor.  Dude just get naked next time.  Do all of the ...

We have seen them all, Star Wars Gangster Rap, The Star Wars Kid, Star Wars Cops, Chad Vader, The Empire Brokeback and the list goes on and on.  Obviously there was only one feature film that actually spoofed Star Wars and it was created by Mel Brooks back in 1987.  This spectacular and hilarious movie was Spaceballs, but this is still not the movie that I am referring to.  Released in 1977 shortly after the 1977 release of Episode IV, it was created by independent film maker Ernie Fosselius on a budget of only $8,000. Here is a little quick fact about the film; it grossed over a million dollars which is still considered to be one of the highest grossing independent ...

Over the years, Scorp and I have been tossing around this idea that there are some movies that just need to be remade.  Clash of the Titans is probably at the top of the list.  The special effects in the original were roughly the equivalent of watching Harry Hamlin wash his balls with butter (btw, with all due respect to Ray Harryhausen, all stop motion must die), but damn the story was good.  And it was freakin educational! And thankfully this movie is FINALLY being made and released in 2010...aww fucking yeah!  Louis Leterrier of recent "Hulk" fame as well as the Transporter flicks is directing and Lawrence Kasdan (of Empire Strikes ...

By the time you read this, it'll probably be taken down off and besides by tomorrow you should be able to see it on the Star Trek Movie website, but DAMN, this shit looks CREAMY!  And if Spockylar doesn't cut off peoples head's WHILE doing the vulcan hammer claw or whatever the hell it's called (sorry, I'm still a Star Wars fan at heart), I'm gonna be REALLY disappointed. Nah, fuck that, this movie is going to be amazing...and yes, despite my love for Star Wars and current hatred for George Lucas (a gay fucking Hutt that sounds like Truman Capote?  God damn Lucas, what next, a gay Luke Skywalker??), I will be there first ...
