Every Day of Groundhog Day in One Day
In celebration of Groundhog Day (and one of my favorite movies of all time, Groundhog Day), you can now watch every single day that Bill Murray relives in the movie simultaneously. From the creator of...
The Rise and Fall of Hollywood
YouTube channel Now You See It published a great video about the rise and fall of Hollywood. It's a short video, so it is quick, top-level analysis that doesn't get too deep, but it does do a great jo...
Why Do People in Old Movies Talk Weird?
Have you ever watched an old movie and wondered why everyone sounds just a little off? Did people really talk like that? What accent is it? Brainstuff has your answers in the video below. I've always...
Ghostbusters III by Max Landis
Ghostbusters was a huge part of my childhood. Every time a rumor would circulate of a third movie I would get excited only to be let down. Now, a Ghostbusters reboot is in the works.[1. Worst idea eve...
The Lego Ghostbusters Movie
BrickFun.net paid homage to Ghostbusters in honor of its 30th anniversary and made a short film recreating the movie with Lego pieces. It's absolutely fantastic.
The inside story of the 'Ghostbusers' music video
One of my favorite films of all time is Ghostbusters, celebrating it's 30th anniversary this year. Screencrush has the inside story of the cameo-filled music video for Ray Parker, Jr's song Ghostbuste...
Miles Ahead
A Miles Davis biopic has been floating around Hollywood for years, but has never been made. With movies like Walk the Line and Ray hitting theaters, I thought for sure the film would be made. Mile Dav...
Batman v Superman Title and Logo Released
The new Batman/Superman crossover movie now has an official title and logo. The title of the movie is Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. I think it's now pretty obvious (as if the casting leaks for W...
Upstream Color Available for Purchase
Shane Carruth's second movie (following Primer) is now available for purchase. Primer was fantastic, so I have high hopes for this film.
The Death and Return of Superman
I was a huge comic book nerd when Superman died (and subsequently came back) in the comics. Like many other people, comic book nerds and regular Joes, I was shocked when DC Comics announced they were...
Why I Love Bill Murray
During the filming of Groundhog Day, Bill Murray was asked to hire an assistant to act as a buffer between him and the studio. He deliberately hired a deaf mute who could only communicate in Native Am...
How I use Twitter
After reading Owen's post about Twitter Influence there was a brief discussion in the Habari IRC channel about who people follow and why. One part of the conversation was about celebrities. One person...
Diablo Cody Writes Horrible Movies
There, I said it. She's a bad writer. The writing in Juno was bad. Jennifer's Body was the equivalent to your 50 year old dad using slang to sound cool. Just awful. Her columns in Entertainment Weekly...
On Sci Fi
I've never really been a big fan of science fiction movies or shows. I hated all the Star Trek Shows and movies (except the new one that just came out) and I hate Star Wars. It is an overrated crap mo...
The Golden Globes
I saw a lot of hate last night in my twitter stream regarding The Golden Globe awards. Many of the people I follow thought that James Cameron and Avatar should not have won for Best Director and Best...
Avatar
I went and saw Avatar in 3D over the weekend and I can sum up my experience in one word: wow. I have never seen anything like this on the big screen, or any screen for that matter. I must have been fe...
America Loves Gangsters
America loves Gottis, America loves bodies Pacino counting C-Notes for shooting up club lobbies While Eddie Nash controls bankrolls in Wonderland Tony Soprano hits channels and holds down On-Demand -C...
Zack and Miri Make a Good Movie
Saturday night I saw Kevin Smith's new movie, Zack and Miri Make a Porno. The story is a simple one. Two friends need money so they decide to make a porno movie. Ok, it's a bit deeper than that, as Ke...
A Scary Time of Year
It is October, which means it's scary movie season. I love scary movies but I'm never really frightened from them. Newer movies are especially bad. They are either torture porn or not scary at all. Th...
