Movie Cliché Supercut: "Let Her Go!"

Here's one of the most commonly used lines in action/thriller movies -- so common that I haven't even really thought about how often it is used -- made a lot more execrable and laughable seen in such quick succession. Highlights: Jon Lovitz in Loaded Weapon and Richard Gere's horrible Irish accent in The Jackal.

For the Star Wars Fan with Everything #34

What do you get when you strip John Williams' score from the Throne Room scene in Star Wars? Sublime, hilarious awkwardness...

Beary Creepy Paddington

If you were around your usual social media haunts yesterday, chances are you would've come across a bunch of memes skewering the forthcoming live-action version of children's book favourite Paddington by inserting the character into famous horror movie scenes (click here for a collection of them). Now the first trailer's out, and though Paddington comes off slightly less creepy than the memes have made him out to be, the film does have a weirdly disgusting WTF moment where the CGI bear (voiced by Colin Firth) sticks toothbrushes into his ears and pulls out globs of earwax and proceeds to sniff and lick said earwax.

Anyway the trailer seems to have Garfield/Yogi Bear vibe, which isn't really a good thing in my books. But I didn't grow up reading Paddington so hey what do I know... Gather your kids close around the monitor and watch Paddington destroy a bathroom:

The Curse of the Sad BatAffleck

When the first image of Ben Affleck from Zack Snyder's upcoming Batman Vs Superman movie was revealed yesterday, I can't say I was able to get too excited about it. But thanks to the internet's army of hard-working photoshoppers and gif-makers, there's at least some amusement to be had from the hilarious memes flooding in...

If you need a quick laugh, click here to see a bunch of 'em.

Gravity: An exclusive alternate scene that redefines entire movie

I think I'm a little late to this (at least in "meme time"), but this is good... very good, in case you missed it...

Action Movie Kid is All Kinds of Awesome

What do you do when you're a special effects wiz at Dreamworks Animation with a kid? If you're Daniel Hashimoto, you turn your three-year-old's imagination into action-packed reality. Check out this super-cute compilation of short videos he's created with James, who gets to wield a light saber, fire rocket launchers, amongst other things...

Devil Baby Attack!

This viral marketing vid for the forthcoming horror movie Devil's Due is awesome, and hilarious.

Star-studded "Let It Be" music video - I'm not sure what the heck this is or what it's for, but it plays like a hilarious purgatory for washed-up celebs from the '80s and '90s:

Don't Worry, It's Just a Cat

Cats: the source of all false terror. I'm sure there are way more examples but not a bad start, Vulture:

Michael Shannon Reads Insane Sorority Letter

Like Christopher Walken or Werner Herzog, Michael Shannon could probably read a telephone book and make it sound like the most magnetic thing to listen to. Give him a vitriolic sorority letter? Amazing. I missed the whole drama about this letter last week, but here's Shannon reading it in his own magnificently ranty way we've come to know and love from his roles in Boardwalk Empire, Take Shelter, Premium Rush, etc. Warning: profanities ahead.

"Peter & Gwen" - A Bad Lip Reading of The Amazing Spider-Man

Another fantastic job from Bad Lip Reading crew, this one somehow finds a way of adding menstrual cramps, wooden legs and free-style rapping into the dialogue of The Amazing Spider-Man. And for you Spider-Man fans with a filthier, darker - perhaps more "adventurous" - sense of humour, watch this new animated clip from the team who brought you the brilliant Louis C.K./Charlie Brown mash-up. It's a brutally honest look at what an actual Spider-Man might be like... warning: not for the easily offended!

I must admit I still haven't seen any Twilight movies - but this made my insides hurt.

Directors Be Hatin'

Flavorwire's put together a pretty funny list of the Top 30 Harshest Filmmaker-on-Filmmaker Insults in History. Hard to pick my favourite, they're all gold, but I do love the succession of FOUR nasty Vincent Gallo insults, plus the Godard-hating by Welles, Bergman and Herzog ("Someone like Jean-Luc Godard is for me intellectual counterfeit money when compared to a good kung-fu film" is an all-timer).

PS: Apologies for the lack of posts recently, I've been on leave the last two weeks...
