Pirnaha 3D Movie Trailer

Pirnaha 3D Movie Trailer By Brendon Connelly/Jan. 20, 2010 12:00 pm EST While there’s still not an official online release of the Piranha 3D trailer, the latest version to pop up across the web at least takes us past the shaky-cam bootleg that was doing the rounds last week. You can see the new, stable version embedded after the break. The original Piranha was hardly the most subtle comedy ever mounted for the big screen but it certainly raised plenty of laughs....

This Week In DVD: Indiana Jones And The Kingdom Of The Crystal Skull, War Inc., Mongol, And More By Adam Quigley/Oct. 14, 2008 11:44 am EST We may receive a commission on purchases made from links. Planned to be the first in a trilogy about Genghis Khan’s life (with Mongol focusing on his younger years), this film was nominated in 2007 for the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film. The movie has received mostly rave reviews (currently holding an 88% on Rotten Tomatoes), and though I haven’t seen it yet, I’m definitely looking forward to doing so as it’s been said to very gracefully combine family drama and romance with epic battle sequences and mass carnage....

Watch Connected, A Sci-Fi Western Short Film By Russ Fischer/March 8, 2010 10:36 am EST A couple months ago I mentioned the Danish short sci-fi western Connected. That was when a very cool poster was released for the film. Now the whole thing is online, and you can see what happens when two people are forced to rely upon one another to survive in a blasted landscape.Connected is only sort of a western, but it does have a nice reversal of expectations, and it primarily concerns greed as it takes control in some sort of wasteland....

The full transcript of that interview will be posted shortly, but I did want to share a quick tidbit that fans of Steven Lisberger’s original 1982 film might like....
