One of probably two movies I’ll actually see in the theater this year. (Watchmen being the other)

I’m not going to pretend like I remember what it was like in the 80’s when new movies were released in theaters in 3D. I actually got the worst side of it, seeing these movies on VHS years later, forced to sit and watch a yo-yo dangle precariously above the camera in a kind of “whoooaaa watch out, it might hit you!” moment that someone once thought would be awesome. I can understand why films like Friday the 13th part 3 and Jaws 3D were made that way. It was cutting edge at the time, a way to immerse the audience in the film like never before. Plus, no one actually saw those films so it was OK to experiment. The big flaw was that the filmmakers didn’t think ahead beyond the theater. Home entertainment hadn’t developed much so there was no reason to plan for it. Now here we are 25 years later, forced to relive this bad idea in our own homes. (more…)

As if the jump to high definition weren’t bad enough (because sometimes you don’t want that much detail), some people in Hong Kong are throwing $4 million at the first 3-dimensional porno flick called “3D Sex and Zen.”

First of all, $4 million is a freakin’ lot of money for any porno movie..but they also say that only 25-30% of it will be sex scenes. Sounds like a blockbuster!

There’s a new supernatural thriller coming out in January called The Unborn. I didn’t really know much about the film, but now that they’ve released this poster…I still have no clue what it’s about. I do know that Odette Yustman from Cloverfield is in it….and apparently she’ll be…uh… standing around nice bathrooms in her underwear staring at reflections of dead kids in the mirror? Spooooooky.

Seriously, you know a movie is going to suck ass when the only way they can sell tickets is to plaster a chicks butt on the poster. Plus it’s PG-13. LAME! When I see an ass and the words “The Unborn”…call me crazy but my mind races to poop. Am I right?

I won’t even bother trying to explain this film. Here’s the description according to Cinematical:

…the film tells of a secret passionate love affair between two women from very diverse backgrounds and their struggle to come to terms with their true feelings for one another before it all gets in the way of the rest of their lives.

Just make sure you leave a few empty seats between you and your buds in the theater. Follow the link below to see (surprisingly light-hearted) the trailer.

I know in the world of dudes the Harry Potter series is a big hit or miss.  I will have to plead guilty to liking all the movies, though I have yet to read any of the books (hopefully that gives me some dignity).  With that said, the new Harry Potter movie looks pretty bad ass.  This is movie really seems to grasp a very dark and disturbing vibe that the series has been going towards.  I also have high hopes that Harry will finally tag Hermione….and for those that did read the books, please don’t spoil my hopes.

I’ve only read really good reviews about the Pixar movie, Wall-E. The local paper where I live gave it 5 stars and my fellow average dude said, “it’s really really good”, a review that will surely make it on the DVD cover. Now you can’t beat that right. Well it is a children’s movie so what do all the kids seeing it think. PIxar is known for throwing in many jokes meant for the parent that often get overlooked by the core audience, the children.

The fellas over at CollegeHumor.com got the 411 on just what the kids thought of this new Pixar flick:

This video, a clip from the upcoming horror movie On the Doll, has been making its way across the internet, scaring the bejeezus out of dudes everywhere. I’ll admit, I was quite turned off to the movie after seeing this, but once I read the synopsis of the film, I feel like this scene might evoke a cheer from the audience rather than a sob. The clip has Prom Night star Brittany Snow literally busing some dude’s balls. You’ve been warned. Check out the video and the synopsis after the jump. (more…)

Fellow average dude, Scott, passed this video along to me last week and at first I really didn’t know what to think about it.  I had to read the title twice because it didn’t really make sense. This movie is not a new comer to the block.  It was debuted in 2006 at the Sundance Film Festival and really didn’t hit it off.  However, Mr. Will Ferrell has taken to it and claims it to be the “best comedy ever”.  That’s really all the movie need and has now gotten a fair amount of internet buzz.  If you’ve seen this flick give a shout about it in the comments.  I hope to see it soon

After months of hype, the fourth Indiana Jones film has had its initial run at theaters. It managed to rake in $311.1 million worldwide, making it a financial success. But was the movie any good? What did you think? Discuss in the comments.
