Creepy Plot Details on Shyamalan's 'The Happening' {Cinematical}

Aug 26th 2007 6:41PM Shaun of the Dead is not about zombies. It's a about a failed relationship that is regenerated through extremely difficult circumstances as the two parties mature while trying to flee an urban death trap and a widespread deadly disease. In this film it's viral depression, in Shaun it's zombies, but the main plot remains very similar.

And for that matter, an episode of Red Dwarf featured an alien that exuded a psychotropic substance that brought on instant suicidal mania, and that was actually quite funny too.

Creepy Plot Details on Shyamalan's 'The Happening' {Cinematical}

Aug 26th 2007 10:11AM So... it's basically Shaun of the Dead, but not funny. What a waste of Leguizamo.

ARANZ Medical works up handheld wound monitor {Engadget}

Aug 24th 2007 11:49AM And actually, the Silhouette camera was first used by NZ meat packers to check beef and mutton carcasses for shrinkage, so it went from that, to Gollum, to wound checking. I'm not sure which of those is the more bizarre industry leap...

How Close is 'Becoming Jane' to Historical Fact? {Cinematical}

Aug 8th 2007 2:42PM Nevermind the fact that her parents seem scandalized that she wants to be a writer, when both of them were, in reality, published authors before she was.

The Telegraph Explores Screen Elvises {Cinematical}

Aug 8th 2007 2:21PM Don't forget that Kurt Russell was actually in a real Elvis movie, and also played Elvis in Forrest Gump, which should be many more points in his favor. But you are correct, Bruce is the King.

Giveaway: have an iPhone on us! {Engadget}

Jul 1st 2007 10:00AM I'm looking forward to winning Engadget's most-entered contest ever. Because, you know, that higher the odds, the greater the glory. If that's true in battle, surely its true in lotteries and sweepstakes as well, right?

Engadget Mobile relaunch giveaways - Helio Ocean {Engadget Mobile}

May 22nd 2007 8:59PM I think it would be kind of funny if I won, because I don't want this phone particularly desperately. I just need a new phone and think one o' these would work for me.

Tarantino Merges Issue Flicks and Spaghetti Westerns into a "Southern" {Cinematical}

Apr 27th 2007 11:46PM The only thing that QT really has a handle on is pop culture of the 70s and 80s. I don't think he has enough respect for any history prior to the cheesy movies, tv, comics and music of that period, and there's no way he could do justice to real environments and real events.

Horrific Original 'Star Wars' Trailer is Painful to Watch {Cinematical}

Apr 27th 2007 11:01AM The only thing that really bothered me was the score, the no-roto lightsabers, and no ADR for "no blasters, no blasters!" And the VO script could have been punched up a tad...

Director of $4,000 Film Called 'Grindhouse' Claims Tarantino Ripped Him Off! {Cinematical}

Apr 12th 2007 11:19AM You can pretty much guarantee that QT doesn't watch any unsolicited films or read any spec scripts for just this reason.
