Muppet Wicker Man!
I hereby demand Muppet versions of all classic horror films. Immediately.
Twilight TOTALLY Invented Werewolves
According to a (hopefully fake) email sent in to a movie review website by some tween fuckwit, Universal Studios should be ashamed for ripping off the whole “werewolf” concept from the Twilight franchise.

I weep for our future.
This gorgeously-produced clip shows reality vs what we see on TV. I knew greenscreens (chromakey) are prevalent in film, but I didn’t realize just how prevalent they are on TV as well, even for seemingly mundane scenes. It’s reasonable for explosions and other scenes that would be expensive or difficult to reproduce in real life, but it would appear they get used all the time even to show people just walking down the street. Cool stuff. (via Boingboing)

In an article that somehow does not contain the words “kook”, “loony” or “wackadoo”, ever reliable and not-at-all-biased Fox News reports that some people are afraid of a pink Ouija board. Seriously.

Everybody knows the evil spirits attack us through popular music and dancing. That’s just science. (via Boingboing)
