With Avatar’s 12/18 theater date almost here, this Colonel Quaritch video features our favorite Na’Vi crusher; we get a first glimpse at what happens when the plug gets pulled on Jake:
Brand new footage of Avatar with lots of CGI! Actor Stephen Lang takes you into the world of Pandora through the eyes of his character Colonel Quaritch. Lang narrates the clip, describing his characters mission and the themes and dynamics of the storyline.
The official site for “The Dream Machine” has launched, bringing with it the first images of Kon’s enigmatic robots, Robin and Rurico.
Satoshi Kon is the man. If you’re not into Anime, and you may have very good reason not to be, I can tell you now that if you watched just one of Satoshi Kon’s films your mind will change from this 😦 to this 🙂 His surreal works are the best and are always a saving grace for the (sometimes cliché) anime genre.
Director Satoshi Kon (Perfect Blue, Millennium Actress, Paprika, Paranoia Agent) is taking a crack at child-friendly fare with his all-robot road movie The Dream Machine. The film’s first images highlight Kon’s strange and lovely robotic creations:
The plot of The Dream Machine has yet to be revealed (at least in English), but Kon gave his overview on the film last year in an interview with Anime News Network:
“The title will be Yume Miru Kikai. In English, it will be The Dream Machine. On the surface, it’s going to be a fantasy-adventure targeted at younger audiences. However, it will also be a film that people who have seen our films up to this point will be able to enjoy. So it will be an adventure that even older audiences can appreciate. There will be no human characters in the film; only robots. It’ll be like a “road movie” for robots.”
Illustrator Paul Rogers puts together six drawings of iconic images for each classic movie. Your challenge is to name the movies from the drawings. You don’t get a clue as to the plot, the dialog, or the actors. – Miss Cellania
HAHAHaha…ah…huh…Is it sad that I’ve played most of these games? Be warned, this 5:54 minute video is mostly embarrassing and terrible as opposed to funny:
Equal parts hilarious and cringe-inducing, the 50 Worst Videogame Voice Acting Lines is so packed with over- and under-acting it makes a preschool play look like Oscar material.
Print Magazineexplores the over usage of the device cliche known as the “A-Frame”
The “A-Frame,” a cutoff-torso-spread-leg framing device, is the most frequently copied trope ever used. From steamy paperbacks designed in the ’40s, hardly a year has gone by without at least one ham-fisted advertisement using this perspective.
The earliest known uses were 19th-century engravings that showed spread-legged, Simon Legree–type slave masters lording over cowering victims. In Westerns, the quintessential showdown frames one duelist through the legs of the other, and mid-20th-century pulp magazine covers were known for their noir images of recoiling women seen through the legs of menacing men. Eventually, designers used the conceit to frame all manner of things…

Those be some mighty fine bottles. I have a friend who used to be gaga for coke. I have another friend who I suspect might be gaga for glassass… HA! Seriously though, that’s a nice evolution of design work. Looks like they got a bit skimpy in the 50’s huh.
At last, here’s the droid we were all looking for. In this frame you can clearly see R2-D2’s cameo in JJ Abrams’ Star Trek. This time there’s absolutely no doubt about it as this has been officially confirmed by ILM.
In other Star Wars/Trek crossoverage…pretty sure this never happened:
