Have you seen this yet? A new search engine called CUIL(COOL). It is boasting more search results than google even. Search results are layed out differently than you might be used to. It has alot of tools to refine your searches. I’m liking it so far. Check it out HERE.
I can’t wait to see this! Check out the “r-rated” teaser clip. Movie opens on August 15th. Directed by Alex Aja, who is amazing, so you know this will be great!
ShockTillYouDrop has three MIRRORS posters up.
I am a HUGE fan of Cormac McCarthy’s The Road. I couldn’t put it down. I don’t know why, but next to revenge movies, my favorites are “end of the world”, “last person on earth” type films. So this story was right up my alley. The whole time reading it, I was thinking that this would make a perfect movie. Not too long afterwards, I found out that it was being made and even partially filmed in this general area!(Mt St. Helens) John Hillcoat(The Proposition) is the director and stars Viggo Mortensen and Charlize Theron. A few stills have been released over at USAToday. Head over there to check them out. Its looking great so far.
So did you hear about this thing?! Sounds like something right out of a sci-fi movie, but its the real deal. I’m still trying to get the details of what they are trying to do exactly. I will paste some of this article from worldnetdaily and zdnet for you to read: “Large Hadron Collider in Switzerland, which is built to slam protons together at an unprecedented peak energy of 14 trillion electron volts – nearing levels scientists believe were reached in the first microseconds after the “big bang.”(If you believe in that sorta thing,that is)
“The critics have filed a lawsuit against the U.S. government and the European Organization for Nuclear Research in Geneva, known as CERN, as scientists prepare to bring the collider online in July.”(UPDATE BELOW)
Physicists at CERN and similar research facilities dismiss the doomsday claim as nonsense. But Wagner, a former nuclear safety officer who says he’s studied physics for more than 30 years, wants the project shelved for four months to allow time for further safety reviews.”
“The particle accelerator was designed primarily as an attempt to produce the ‘Higgs boson’ — a hypothetical particle whose observation would help confirm some of the predictions in the Standard Model of physics. Other currently theoretical particles may also be observed for the first time, including microscopic black holes — some people have theorised that this side of the project could go wrong with Earth-threatening results, a fear that Cern has comprehensively and repeatedly denied. ”
“The first attempt to circulate a beam of particles around the tunnel will take place on 10 September, according to a Thursday statement by the LHC’s builders, the European Organization for Nuclear Research (Cern). This event will follow a long commissioning process that has seen the structure cooled down to 1.9° above absolute zero (-271°C).”
I really wanted to like Fabrice’s Calvaire,(The Ordeal in U.S.) but I just couldn’t. It certainly is not a bad film at all though. It had alot of good atmospheric and stylistic shots throughout. I really liked the whole look and feel of the end of it. There is something here he can work on for sure. I think he is capable of a really good movie and we will have to see if Vinyan will be just that. Head over to Premier France to see a trailer. Its hard to say….. Here is a synopsis: Unable to accept the the loss of their son in the 2005 Tsunami, Jeanne and Paul Bellmer have remained in Phuket. Desperately clinging to the fact that his body was never recovered, Jeanne has convinced herself that the boy was kidnapped by traffickers in the chaos that followed the catastrophe… that her son is still alive. Paul is sceptical, but cannot bring himself to shatter his wife’s last hope. Bribing the sinister Mr Gao to take them by boat to the pirate-infested jungles of the Thai/Burmese border, the traumatized couple embark on a quest that will plunge them through paranoia and betrayal, ever deeper into an alien universe, a supernatural realm where the dead are never truly dead, and where nightmares, obsession and horrifying reality converge.
….and its about time! He may be having some marital problems, but it doesn’t look like it has effected how awesome this movie will be. His last few attempts at straying away from his normal routine didn’t go over too well. So he’s back to his old self and theres nothing wrong with that! Head over to EMPIRE to see the first trailer!
Bobby Digital, AKA The RZA, AKA Robert Diggs is back with his second(third if you count the Afro Samurai project) B.D. record entitled Digi Snacks. The first one released way back in 1998 is nothing short of a classic. Here is a video for the first single “You Can’t Stop Me Now”:
If this sounds familiar to you its because this is a sample from “Message From a Black Man” by Barrett Strong and Norman Whitfield. Which has also been sampled by MF DOOM and Mos Def.
Rza still plans on finishing his record THE CURE, which was intended to be released before the first Bobby Digital record. “I had to put out Bobby Digital instead of The Cure because if I didn’t do that I would’ve suffered two things. First, I would have revealed where I was musically too soon. Wu-Tang is the perfect medium to expose anything new because I got the most people coming together to buy it. For me to expose it for my own self, I don’t think that would’ve been a wise thing for me to do. I might’ve caught more people than Bobby Digital caught, but I still wouldn’t catch the magnitude of what the Wu-Tang could catch.”-2000 interview
The controversial Argentine Director is at it again! His previous works- Irreversible and I Stand Alone are two absolutely amazing films, but have scenes that are hard to watch. I’m a sucker for revenge films, and I’d say that Irreversible is probably the best one I’ve ever scene. Early rumors on this new Film ENTER THE VOID are saying that it will be shot in Japan and involve two siblings heavily into drugs. “Influenced by the Tibeten Book of the Dead and termed by Gaspar Noé as psychedelic, the siblings are in their teens or early twenties and are experimenting with sex and drugs.” I dont know, we’ll have to see. This could end up just being too over the top. Even for me.
A great article is written up on Gaspar over at Exposure Online Magazine. Here are a few quotes, but head over there to read the full story.
“”At Cannes, people ran away, people fainted, people threw up, but they were all just a bunch of wimps. I’m sure it’ll be different here in London, because I heard you people were really tough around here. So we’ll see all of you at the end of the movie; except maybe a few of you we’ll check the names. Bye. Courage” - National Film Theatre on the 11 October 2002.”
“”You can have a physical reaction to the movie, too. Even on the soundtrack, we added these really low waves, infra-waves, so that during the first half of the movie you have a 27-herz frequency that’s usually used in riots to make people run away.”
A “fan-made” (we’ll call it)movie poster has been made and can be seen HERE. This is not the official poster for the film, but turned out pretty good.
I was completely unaware of this band somehow. But I picked up a decently priced record the other day from Jackpot records. What caught my eye was the DOMINO Records logo all over the sleeve. Junior Boys are on this label and I am always wanting to check out the other artists on this label, but for some reason never get around to it. I’m pretty happy with this. It has four songs by The Television Personalities all remixed by the likes of Ratatat,Battles,Lingling,and Black Dice. All four are really good. I will go ahead and post up the Lingling remix of “All the Young Children” for you to enjoy. Go and pick this up though. The other three tracks are great as well.

Working on another single song download site for someone. This actually isn’t going to get used, but I really like it:
