  1. The film has earned US$45.2 million in China on opening weekend, making it Warner Bros. biggest opening there. Pacific Rim Is Bigger Than The Dark Knight Rises in China
  2. They did mention in the film that they tried dropping nukes directly into the fissure to close the portal, but it didn't work. It was later revealed that...
  3. To celebrate John Boorman's 80th birthday and his six decades of filmmaking, a documentary on the making of Excalibur has been made. However, the producers need at least US$30,000 for post-production. Despite not reaching their goal at Indiegogo, they are still intent on releasing this documentary this year. Behind the Sword in the Stone
  4. Talladega Nights: The Ballad of Ricky Bobby may be a work of fiction, but a couple of real-life incidents at Talladega Superspeedway mirrored the film. At the 2009 Aaron's 499 race, Carl Edwards crashed violently on the final lap. Edwards got out of his wrecked car and jogged to the finish line, just as Ricky Bobby and Jean Girard did in the film's final race. In 2012, Kurt Busch struggled with little or no sponsorship in his team after having left Penske Racing. So at the 2012 Aaron's 499 race, Busch's car sported the familiar colors of Ricky Bobby's "ME" car, complete with the cougar on the hood.
  5. Here's a shot of my current N-Strike Elite arsenal and a comparison between the Stampede ECS and the Rapidstrike.
  6. The Italdesign Giugiaro Parcour Concept is like other recent homages to the legendary Lancia Stratos - except that it can actually go off-road. Its body is made of carbon fiber and aluminum panels, and it is powered by a 550 bhp Lamborghini Gallardo V10 engine mated to the Audi R8 V10's 7-speed dual-clutch automatic transmission. 2013 Italdesign Giugiaro Parcour Concept 2013 Italdesign Giugiaro Parcour Roadster Concept
  7. Here's Tony Stark, as seen in more than half of the film. Hot Toys' Tony Stark: The Mechanic comes with all the homemade weapons he built to sneak into The Mandarin's Miami hideout, including stun glove, nail gun and Christmas grenade. The figure also comes with the battle-damaged Mark 42 right forearm and left boot armor parts, as well as the Augmented Cognition Headset with holographic effects and a limited-edition Dora the Explorer watch. Selected markets will also receive a homemade Wrist Repulsor as a bonus item. Tony Stark: The Mechanic
  8. Hot Toys' Silver Centurion somehow looks chunkier than their other Iron Man figures. Nonetheless, it's everything you'd expect from a Hot Toys figure when it comes to attention to detail. Accessories include open helmet with Tony Stark head, detachable combat blades and battle-damaged chest plate. Selected markets will also receive a battle-damaged Mk. 42 helmet as a bonus item. Iron Man (Mk XXXIII) Silver Centurion
  9. I think one of the reasons for a weak Viper was the actress herself. Svetlana Khodchenkova probably doesn't speak a single word of English in real life, and it's obvious that she was dubbed over. If they had cast someone like Charlize Theron for the role, we would've gotten a more effective Viper. But I guess the Russian chick was all they could afford.
  10. Is this what we might expect out of the NFS movie? Here's Redline: And here's The Asylum's 200 mph, if you dare:
  11. I'm surprised the Aussies complained about the fake accents and not the geographical error in the portrayal of Sydney. According to what someone posted on IMDb:
  12. You think that's bad? Redline had it worse. The producer had his Lamborghini Diablo and Porsche Carrera GT destroyed on purpose simply because he was a subprime mortgage broker and he could just buy more cars. He didn't even flinch when Eddie Griffin wrecked his Enzo Ferrari in a charity race; he simply posed in front of the mangled car for the cameras.
  13. I'm glad Bandai is doing S.H. MonsterArts figures of Alien and Predator, but it's too bad the figures will be under a shitty movie instead of the separate films that made them iconic.
