I Don't Know What Rouroni Kenshin Is, But Here's A Live-Action Trailer For It.
Ok, so this looks like crap, the anime series was as standard as anime gets......but there's this 4 episode miniseries (alright, so OVAs) that put together is one of my favourite samurai films ever. Not joking here, this thing is genuinely compelling.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d05P0fpslvAClip related, but spoilerific. I strongly recommend seeking the whole thing.

@gangly said:This is a decent exploration of the trope, but I have trouble understanding why it's all framed by the Twain story. Certainly, the direct adaptations and very closely plotted films (Army of Darkness) fit, but The Wizard of Oz? Back to the Future? Super Mario Bros.? I think this could have been a stronger analysis if it simply discussed the trope at large, and not attempted to wedge Twain ...

Latest American To Not Understand Capitalism Sues Theater For Overpriced Concessions.
Well, there's the part where the theatre won't let you bring your own snacks into the movie. Which... is not "in the spirit of capitalism" at all, either. So I don't know that I'm outraged at this particular suit, especially if the man has legal grounds for it.Now, do I care about it or even agree to it? Nope. You can not buy it or not go to the theatre ...

Wait, found footage is seeping out of horror movies and into dumb comedies? I mean, I guess technically it's a better fit than superhero movies, but damn. That's... sad.

The first movie was actually... a good movie. This trailer at least has some heart to it, as opposed to just boob jokes. Have they recaptured some of the purpose in that first one? I guess I'll wait for the reviews and see what's up.

"Bully" Documentary Rating Leading To Major Row Between Weinsteins, MPAA, And Theater Owners.
That's the problem in the literal approach to censorship. If you assume that the word itself is charged, rather than the intent or context, you end up with dumb shit like this. Of course if you don't you end up giving censors the power to determine the intent or context of things, which is way more dangerous.The answer is, I think, non-mandatory ratings and companies and agencies not using ratings, ...

@Mr_skeleton said:It's not a softcore porn, it's an indie film.This is as far from indie as Spanish films get. It's the director from Sex and Lucía (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0254455/) who, for some inexplicable reason, can get money to shoot any kind of softcore porn fantasy he wants with full backing -- or as close to it as it gets over here.But hey, I'd rather have naked Elena Anaya than "some lady defecating ...

I also thought this was a notch above "half good". They sort of manage to make the monster be both a Godzilla kind of thing and a virus, which works great for the film and[spoiler]I like that nobody actually makes it to the end.[/spoiler]Overall, a pretty good effort. It may be my favourite found footage film, in that I generally detest the genre. I did not have such a huge ...

Paranormal Activity: The Chronology Edits All Three Films Into One Super-Long Jump Scare-fest.
@VachonRahl said:And everyone is forgetting about "Paranormal Activity: Tokyo Nights." It has very little tie-in with the rest of the series, but it does tie in.I thought that was a Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift joke there for a moment. Mostly because I haven't seen any of these movies and I really don't intend to change that anytime soon, so I had no idea that this was a real ...

@LoktarOgar said:@RVonE said:That's one good looking lady.Other than that, I don't understand why so many people are into this series. It's like Twilight for dudes.That sounds good to me... I dunno, I've always liked the Underworld movies, unironically even. Hot british ladies in bodysuits, Bill Nighy, Rhona Mitra, combined with my Buffy the Vampire Slayer upbringing, it's like a perfect storm for me. I just like the universe they've set ...

The Thing, As Retold By Claymation Penguins, Is Surely The Best Thing You'll See All Day.
@ElectricBoogaloo said:That was amazing.My childhood and one of my favourite movies COMBINED!Damn, Pingu used to scare me as it is (it's the surrealism of stop motion mixed with the hyper-realist sound effects, it always got to me), but this? This is terrifying. I think this is so scary it travelled back in time and made my 5 year old self wet the bed all the way in the past.

http://www.seattlepi.com/entertainment/article/Movie-sword-fight-master-Bob-Anderson-dies-at-89-2436621.phpIf you don't know who he was, it doesn't matter, you still loved his work. I wonder who, if anybody will pick up the slack, because this is one of those things that so defined the look of many, many classic films without anybody realizing that it was the one guy behind it all.

I don't actually use Origin and don't really intend to if I don't have to, but man. Even the verification email process is broken. What.

People can be dicks on their birthday, so if you're surrounded by dicks, maybe it's everyone's birthday! (Or just yours).
