Yeah, I know, I know, I had a Friday post yesterday, when it really wasn’t even Friday. The point is it’s Friday now, so shut up. For all of you who haven’t seen the film Titanic or those of you who feel like watching it again, here it is, compressed down into five seconds of masterful cinematography and Canadian pop ...

DVD Rewinder: An Indispensable Gadget
I’m not quite sure how my household would get along without this DVD Rewinder, a truly necessary gadget in any man serious about his media. I despise receiving DVDs from Netflix, only to find that they haven’t been properly rewound. I do not care to see the middle of a film before I’ve seen the beginning. It’s almost as irritating ...

If George Lucas had been born about 25 years earlier, Star Wars would have turned out a hell of a lot different. In this excellent “premake” trailer by Ivan Guerrero, Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back is transformed into a campy 50s sci-fi epic, complete with chintzy-looking robots and “amazing” 3D effects. The premake was made by splicing together classic ...

TMNT action figures were my toy of choice when I still whipped out my figures for a daily rumble. I’m trying to give it up, really. I haven’t even touched my toys since yesterday. What you are witnessing above is supposedly the new look of the upcoming live-action Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film. I’m not quite sure how I feel ...

Alfred Hitchcock’s North by Northwest would have looked a whooooole lot different if Roger Thornhill had used the Force. Cary Grant just went up a few notches in the Gearfuse book of cool. Link [via]

Coming to an�imaginary�theater near you. Pac-Man: The Movie, inspired by films such as Saw, Hostel and other “torture porn” films which were released in the naughty noughts. Mr. Michael Pacman, CEO of Paccorp, is about to get a taste of his own medicine. Link

While I’ve heard mixed reviews of Tim Burton’s Alice in Wonderland (as is typical with Burton films), there’s no denying the charm of these Alice in Wonderland-inspired mini LEGO sculptures. Including the Mad Hatter (played by a very Madonna-esque Johnny Depp in Burton’s outing) and Alice herself. I believe designer Tommy Williamson was going for a relatively�minimalist�theme, using as few ...
Read More »Movies That Don’t Exist (But Should)
While Hollywood chugs away at making a movie for every board game and sub-8-bit video game that ever existed (I’ve even heard titters of movies based on Pong and Monopoly), there are so many film�opportunities�out there that would actually make sense… or at least cause an extreme amount of LOLz. Take The Legend of Zelda for instance. That’s just prime ...

Starring John Cusack as John Cusack in Say Anything… Again! But this time around, he’s got some new tools in his shed. For one thing, record stores are all obsolete. Wait, I think I’m confusing Say Anything with High Fidelity. Dammit, I hate when John Cusack movies start bleeding together. This trick isn’t for everybody, as you’ll have to figure ...

First you get the money. Then you get the power. THEN you get the Apple products. Al Pacino might or might not have said those exact lines in the film Scarface. Maybe I used an oh-so slight piece of creative�license. This Scarface Macbook decal turns your laptop into an even cooler, but slightly more suspicious, piece of hardware. No scales ...
