The group Improv Everywhere decided to re-create the opening scene to Ghostbusters at The New York Public Library.  The result is a hilarious and harmless practical joke.  Watch the video after the jump:

This has been making it’s way throughout the blogs. It made my night.

Check out The Muppets taking on Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody” in all it’s splendor. Love it.

What if Batman’s disappearing act didn’t work out 100% of the time. Awkward?

I think the title says it all. This is a short film about a Horribly Slow Murderer with a Extremely Inefficient Weapon. Hilarious.

First, I find out that G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra is actually good. Now, I find out that Channing Tatum is hilarious. Seriously, I’m in Bizarro World for sure.

Channing Tatum has been it shit movies up till now.

For example:

Fighting

She’s the Man

Step Up

Step Up 2: The Streets

However, with Public Enemies and now G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra his career could be turning a corner.  But, he’s been cast as the pretty boy badass in most movies.

Here, with the always adorable Charlyne Yi, he shows us his comedic side by re-enacting a classic scene from Dirty Dancing.  Hilarity ensues.

Channing Tatum, you have arrived on my radar as an actor.

Mean Magazine has created a new series of online short films called CineMash and there is one other worth checking out.

Here is Sid and Nancy starring Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt and directed by Marc Webb (the director of 500 Days of Summer) :

This is a really awesome featurette for Spike Jonze‘s adaptation of Dave Eggers classic Where the Wild Things Are.  Man, I really can’t wait for this.  I’m hearing some wonderful things!

You can also watch the Where the Wild Things Are featurette in High Definition on Apple

Matthew Belinkie created this hilarious ballad called “I’ll Be Back” and posted it on YouTube.  He’s also responsible for The Dark Bailout and Indy Shot First, check them out.  Watch, listen and hoist a lighter to the air.  You’ll be singing this non-stop after you watch it.

What if Michael Bay and McG got their man-love on and gave birth to a new movie? We’d have Transforminators!

Here’s a pretty genius mash up between the Transformers 2 Trailer and the Terminator: Salvation trailer.

Take a glimpse behind the scenes as Robert Zemeckis and Jim Carrey explain some of the magic of Motion Capture for the new take on A Christmas Carol. I hated Polar Express (although my kids eat up the North Pole sequence of the film) and Beowulf was almost unwatchable. My main gripe was the Motion Capture used instead of real actors, when real actors would have made both films better.

A Christmas Carol looks a lot better. Instead of going for “Photo Real” this looks a bit heightened. And I think that will help the viewer immerse themselves in the story.
