  1. NO SCHWARZENEGGER = NOT A TOTAL RECALL MOVIE
  2. Wow...Professor X and Magneto together again.
  3. That's typical of a ricer. I remember seeing a video where some guy had a GT-R badge on an old Mustang. He was asked if his Mustang had a rotary and he said yes. What a moron!
  4. Fiat has announced that their best-selling 500 (a retro remake of their classic hatchback made famous by Lupin III) will be available in the U.S. by mid-2010. The Fiat 500 will be sold at Chrysler dealerships nationwide. There's also a possibility that they will be locally manufactured as well. Don't be surprised to see people trading in their Mini Coopers and New Beetles for this hatch. Again, I must say that this is a nice ride. The Fiat 500 ain't too bad, either.

  5. This is quite a nice ride. The Bimmer ain't too bad, either. 2009 BMW E92 M3 Darth Maul by MW Design Technik
  6. So you basically paid for I, II, III, IV and VI, while getting V for free.
  7. Good news: Following the release of the band's new documentary Flight 666, Iron Maiden will have 12 of their classic songs available for download for Rock Band and Rock Band 2. And these are direct from the original master recordings, not some lame cover version. Iron Maiden Track Pack for Rock Band and Rock Band 2
  8. Also needs more decals for extra horsepower. And where's the undercarriage lights?
  9. Here's one for all the Silvia fans. 2009 Vizualtech Time Attack Nissan 200
  10. Suppose the next Trek film or the one after that is a remake of "Space Seed". Who would be cast as Khan?
  11. My thoughts exactly. And what's with that center exhaust? It looks like somebody slapped a paint thinner can on the rear end.

  13. WTF? Sounds like a giant monster deathmatch marathon is coming soon on SciFi.
  14. The most powerful EVO X has been unleashed; unfortunately, it's available in the UK only. The FQ-400 uses a heavily modified version of Mitsubishi's turbocharged 2.0 liter inline-4, which generates 403 bhp and 387 lb-ft torque. The result: 0-60 in 3.8 seconds and a top speed of 155 mph (electronically limited). But is it really worth £49,999 (roughly US$81,000)? 2009 Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X FQ-400
  15. Mega Shark Versus Giant Octopus The Asylum, 2009 Directed by Ace Hannah (a.k.a. Jack Perez, who directed Wild Things 2) Running Time: 90 minutes Rated R for violence, mature situations, profanity and suggestive drug use on the part of The Asylum. Cast Deborah Gibson as Dr. Emma MacNeil Vic Chao as Prof. Seiji Shimada Sean Lawlor as Prof. Lamar Sanders Lorenzo Lamas as Allan Baxter Synopsis When oceanographer Emma MacNeil "borrows" a submarine to study whale migration off the coast of Alaska, a low-frequency sonar device is suddenly dropped by a military helicopter, causing the whales to go berserk and ram a nearby glacier. This incident unearths and awakens a Megalodon (a giant prehistoric shark) and a Giant Octopus from their 10-million-year suspended animation. All hell breaks loose, now that they're awake - whales are found mutilated everywhere, an oil rig in Japan is destroyed by the octopus in seconds and the shark defies physics by eating a 747 from 30,000 feet in the sky. After a failed attempt to corral both sea creatures in Tokyo Bay and San Francisco - resulting in the shark taking a bite out of the Golden Gate Bridge, Emma, along with her mentor Lamar Sanders and Japanese scientist Seiji Shimada, proposes to have the shark and octopus stage their "Thrilla in Manila" and kill each other off before they create any further damage. Lowdown I know what you're thinking: What the hell am I doing reviewing a crappy B-movie? It's not like I've never done that before; after all, I did sit through the sci-fi abomination that is Resiklo. So what could possibly be worse than that? Well, the first indication to this film is that it's produced by The Asylum - the same people who brought us low-budget "mockbusters" like Transmorphers, AVH: Alien vs. Hunter, Snakes on a Train and The Terminators. Not a good start at all, right? Then comes the second indication: the cast. We all know that former soap opera star Lorenzo Lamas is pretty much washed out, but former teen idol Deborah Gibson in the lead role? She must be desperate, as her Playboy stint years ago was a disaster, and I've read that she recently sold her house. In typical B-movie fashion, the acting is atrocious, the storyline is riddled with plot loopholes you can jump your car through, and the CG effects are downright cheesy. So why, then, is Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus not reviewed as a bad movie? Well, it's simple: it's a movie so bad, it's actually good. The scene where the shark eats a 747 alone saves the whole movie. This film makes a perfect party piece if you're in the mood to laugh at something - whether or not you're smoking a joint on the side. In a nutshell, Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus is a bad movie that you'd actually want to show your friends. As long as there's enough booze in the house.

  16. A sequel to Redline. Fortunately, that won't happen, as the guy who funded the film and wrecked part of his personal car collection for it lost his sub-prime mortgage company (go figure!).
  17. Look at what's up for sale online: 2006 Ford Mustang Death Race Killing Machine - $50,000
  18. Tough call. I'd have to choose between Aria Giovanni, Tera Patrick and Veronica Zemanova to play Lara Croft.
  19. The Tomb Raider film franchise gets a reboot on March 16, 2018. Alicia Vikander (Ava in Ex Machina, Agent Lee in Jason Bourne) has been cast as Lara Croft. Also starring is Walton Goggins (Chris Mannix in The Hateful Eight, Billy Crash in Django Unchained) as the film's villain. Alicia Vikander's Tomb Raider Gets 2018 Release Date
  20. Okay, whoever wrote that original script should be flogged along with those who did the final script. This is Terminator, not Face/Off.
  21. Meanwhile, in other motorsports news: Helio Castroneves wins his third Indy 500. In case anyone still cares, Danica Patrick finished third. Coming up: the Coca-Cola 600 (as soon as the rain dries up at noon).
