David Drew — Fri, 05 Apr 2013 17:27:13 +0000

Jurassic Park 3D is in theaters now. The film is a fun experience in 2D, so I can imagine 3D paired with improved digital sound will only make it better. There are a lot of fans of the film, but probably not many who could create a shot for shot scene in their driveway.

'White House Down' may look a little familiar -- it is the second "'Die Hard' in the White House" movie of 2013 -- but it's also the bigger budget summer blockbuster version.

Watch This Hilarious Mashup of 'Home Alone' and 'Argo'

Jackie Mancini — Tue, 26 Feb 2013 20:00:36 +0000

We’re big fans of the video mashup, especially when it combines two things that should never, ever be combined: Like Kevin McCallister and the Iranian hostage crisis, for example. As we’re sure you know by now, the 2013 Oscar-winning ‘Argo’ was a movie with a pretty intense and historically-accurate conflict driving the plot. Uh, ‘Home [...]

Do you know where the B105 Breakfast Club name came from? You guessed it! I am a huge fan of the movie "The Breakfast Club" and a huge fan of Molly Ringwald.

Eric Walkuski — Fri, 28 Dec 2012 21:12:56 +0000

When you think of the possible candidates for "Most Pirated Movie of 2012: (a dubious honor, to be sure), a few titles instantly spring to mind: 'The Avengers', 'The Dark Knight Rises', 'The Amazing Spider-Man', to name a few. But oddly enough, none of those major blockbusters top the list. No, the film that was pirated the most is one that, at this stage of the year, is something of an afterthought.

Find out what it is after the break.

But though we were mixed on it, perhaps this new featurette and clip will get you excited.

'Fargo' TV Series Coming to FX, Don't Cha Know?

Kevin Fitzpatrick — Tue, 25 Sep 2012 17:55:01 +0000

With every passing year on the TV landscape, it feels more and more like original ideas are becoming a rarity in favor of re-hashing existing properties. Yet, for every potential 'Fame' reboot we hear about, one actually sounds ripe for a re-imagining. We mean, if 'Fargo' were to come to TV as an episodic series, don't you think you'd check it out?

The Worst VHS Covers of All Time

Matthew Roulette — Fri, 29 Jun 2012 19:52:48 +0000

The old saying goes, “you can’t judge a book by its cover.” But you can judge these VHS covers as the worst of all time. Gone are the glory days of VHS, and the absurdly atrocious covers that went with them. Still, there’s a strange charm to the crude artwork that adorned these boxes, made [...]

It’s hard to believe that Harrison Ford has never seen any of the ‘Indiana Jones’ movies. And yet, here he is recently watching the original trilogy in wide-eyed wonder. (Apparently, even Indy himself wants to pretend that ‘Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull’ never happened.)

But as many YouTube commenters have pointed out, something seems fishy about this video.
