    Stéphane Bouley (YouTube)
    What if Monty Python's Life of Brian were a dramatic blockbuster theatrically released in the 2010s? It'd probably have a trailer a bit like this...

    We Watched the Toy Story Porn Parody So You Don't Have To [NSFW]

    A wise man once said "To Infinity and Beyond", Unfortunately there's no way of knowing who that man was or in what context it was meant to be understood, so let us instead turn our attention to the Toy Story porn parody - Sex Toy Story The XXX Parody Part 1.

    It says Part 1, but …

  • Disney's tweet: "#TheLionKing. 2019. ??"


    Is it just me, or is this some fantastic fucking casting. For the first time perhaps ever, I feel confident that a remake of an already-good film has the potential to be awesome.

I studied the running time of the top 100 US-grossing films since 1994 (2,200 films in total) and all films shot in the UK 2005-14 (2,142 …

    This is amazing, and I've no idea how it's only got (at the time of writing) ~28,000 views. Seriously: push on through the first two minutes and pay atention to how the effects and filming are executed. Then keep watching.

    On This Day In 2004

    On this day in 2004 Claire and I hosted the eleventh ever Troma Night, a weekly event that became a central part of the social calendar of our friends for about six years. I've dug up some old photos, so I thought we might enjoy reminiscing about how young we all used to look.

  • Daryl Hannah in Splash

    I Want to See a Gender-Swapped Version of Every Movie. Literally Every One.

    In case you haven’t heard, Splash – the 1984 fantasy romantic comedy starring Tom Hanks as the man who falls in love with a mermaid Daryl Hannah – is being remade, with Channing Tatum as the mermaid.
