adriancb — Mon, 13 Jun 2011 07:57:23 +0000

Ah, the Eighties. Never before and never again will there be a decade so defined by the irrepressible genre that is the action movie. Stallone, Schwarzenegger, Ford and, er… Busey

16 Epic Fan-Made Batmobiles (PICS)

adriancb — Thu, 24 Jun 2010 09:46:18 +0000

Batman has always been known for all his wonderful gadgets (or toys), but his Batmobile still strikes a chord among fans as one of the coolest and most amazing vehicles that has ever surfaced. With that, it seems that many of those die-hard fans have also made it a personal mission to resurrect the Batmobile in different ways and designs that are extraordinary for fans and others.

Top 10 Shook-Up Shakespeare Movies

adriancb — Thu, 13 May 2010 12:57:21 +0000

William Shakespeare, now there was a guy who could put pen to paper. So powerful was his Romeo and Juliet that the heartbroken of today still write to Juliet in her home town of Verona, spilling their (real, living) souls out to that most famous of all (fictional, dead) lovers. That could be sad if you’re, like, a balding, 53-year-old male composing a missive in your mother’s basement while cuddling your 1/4-scale, highly detailed model of Catwoman.

We here at Screen Rant wanted to celebrate the upcoming summer movie season – particularly the release of Iron Man 2 – by taking an unconventional look at some of the most iconic superheroes in the entertainment industry.

50 Things I’d Rather Do Than Watch Sex and the City 2

adriancb — Sat, 10 Apr 2010 11:06:47 +0000

Who’s ready for the new Sex and the City 2 trailer, which plunks Carrie Bradshaw and company right where you knew their destinies would always take them: Abu… Dhabi? What? Forget it. Sometimes you just know when something stinks, and I would sooner tattoo my eyelids than watch this effing thing. In fact, I can think of a million other things I would do before I watched a frame of this garish, overextended, ovary-tickling twaddle.

13 Terminally Typecast Actresses

adriancb — Fri, 26 Mar 2010 12:33:13 +0000

On our last go-round on this subject, I dealt with those unfortunate few male actors whose default setting was the most often seen in their films. If you happen to be a female in Hollywood, things don’t look much better, and in many cases they probably look worse, because in the movie business, you’re a hooker, a bitch, or a woman who needs a man to solve all her problems, and there’s not much room for in between. So much so that even good actresses, ones who have proven themselves to have range and abilities beyond their usual fare, find themselves going back to the same old thing, time and again, whether it be romantic comedy (more than half the actresses on this list) or drama/action (the other half). So in a tribute to these brave women who have talent but choose not to use it for the sake of routine and easy satisfaction, Screen Junkies presents….

Top 70 Vampire Movies of All Time

adriancb — Fri, 19 Mar 2010 04:49:49 +0000

Vampires are mythological creatures, famous in folklore for their need to feed on the blood of animals and humans for survival. While regarded as part of the horror genre, vampire films do have their own characteristic style, as many motifs have spawned from the famous 1897 Bram Stoker novel Dracula. But Dracula himself originated from Southeast Europe and was not the first vampire myth; cultures such as the Mesopotamians, Hebrews and Romans have long had tales of demons and spirits that would drink blood and feast on flesh.

11 Badass Conspiracy Theories

Even with Bush out of the oval office, and 9/11 many years in our rear view mirror, America is still fascinated by conspiracy theories. Why? Well, who doesn’t love tapped phones, untraceable weapons, and secret government agents in Ray Bans?

But yes, the post title should say “… Conspiracy Theory Movies”

9 Lame Vampires Much Cooler than the Vampires in Twilight

adriancb — Sun, 14 Mar 2010 08:32:43 +0000

Twilight sucks. Anyone with at least a quarter-brain knows this to be fact. But we’re not here to argue the literary merits — or lack their of — of a book series completely devoid of anything even remotely close to resembling a well-put-together story or character depth. No, instead we look at Twilight’s greatest detriment to pop culture: the complete and utter butchery of the vampire mythos.

6 Absurd Movie and TV Plot Twists (That Really Happened)

adriancb — Wed, 24 Feb 2010 08:36:58 +0000

There are a lot of things on TV that just don’t happen in the real world: Nobody lives in a huge apartment in New York for a hundred bucks a month; single men don’t adopt adorable moppets to sass up their lives; the ratio of fat guy to hot wife is substantially lower; and when George Lopez tells a joke, nobody laughs. But even unoriginal writing has to come from somewhere, and some of Hollywood’s most outlandish plot twists didn’t come from the booze-soaked mind of a hack writer; they came right from the damn newspaper.
