Yo, Philly in the News
Whole Hog Is All Heart
A tall, icy glass of our favorite internet junk, just for you.
- Do you want to see some video of the all-dancing, all-singing stage production of Edward Scissorhands? Of course you do. Clickety click! (Via)
- Trailer time! It's Run, Fatboy, Run, another upcoming movie starring Simon Pegg. He tries to do the Rocky drink-a-glass-of-raw-eggs thing and... well, you should just watch it. Good stuff! Plus Hank Azaria's in it. (Via)
- And now, list time! Premiere has for us The 15 Greatest Scary Flicks Ever Remade. We were a little puzzled at first, but we're pretty sure now that this is not a list of the best horror remakes, but a list of the best horror movies that were eventually remade, often with terrible results. Which is kind of an odd and pointless list to make. And where the heck is The Haunting? (Via)
- Speaking of remakes... no! No, no, no! You cannot remake The Day the Earth Stood Still. That is a perfect movie. You do not remake a perfect movie. Did you learn nothing from Psycho?! Gah!
- And speaking of lists, here's another: Top Five Gaming Videos You Must See. Some obvious choices and old favorites are here, but there are also others we'd never seen before. Enjoy!
- We've got some Transformers stuff for you. Some pictures and video of the cars that will be the stars of the movie (via; we're still trying to get used to the idea of Bumblebee as something other than a VW Bug), and 5 reasons why the movie will rock, courtesy The Movie Blog. Thank you, Movie Blog, for making us believe again.
More after the jump...
- Did you know Frank Darabont's doing another Stephen King adaptation? This time it's The Mist, and the cast includes Marcia Gay Harden, Toby Jones, Thomas Jane, Andre Braugher, and Amin Joseph. Awesome.
- Make your NES and SNES controllers wireless, and compatible with your Wii! Genius! (Via)
- Speaking of the Wii - is the Wii having a "game drought?" Well, maybe a little one - but it's not nearly as bad as earlier Nintendo game droughts - just check this handy graph! (And remember, the most violent Wii game ever, full of assassins, kung fu, and lightsabers, is on its way!) And while we're on the subject of Wii statistics, here's another graph revealing the Wii to be the most power efficient contemporary gaming platform, and the sales numbers for January revealing the Wii to have outsold the other next gen consoles, despite shortages and sellouts. And on top of all that, there's apparently an entire retirement home full of Wii Sports Bowling fans. That's just cool.
- We were thinking of trying to read Marvel's gigantic Civil War series, but were a little overwhelmed by all the books we'd have to buy. Thankfully, Chris's Invincible Super-Blog breaks the whole thing down for us in thirteen simple crayon drawings. Thanks, Chris!
- We have a dirty little secret: we like IE7. So we're fascinated by Wired's list of the Seven Best Add-Ons for IE7.
