If you’ve always suspected something wasn’t quite right with Arnold Schwarzenegger, then here is the proof you needed that there’s been a conspiracy all along. Meet Walter Boyle, who discloses the secret behind Arnie’s acting: it wasn’t acting, it was real. All those parts he played, he wasn’t playing a character, he was acting out a top secret mission at the behest of the federal government.
A film that’s on everyone’s “favorite movies” list and has probably been quoted with their friends so much you say the lines in your sleep. The acting’s awesome, the script’s amazing, the music rocks, the directing is superb — so it’s the perfect movie to dive behind the scenes and hear the cast and crew talk about how they did it. ” As far back as I can remember, I always wanted to be a gangster…”
The Matrix, a sci-fi world so futuristic that they use payphones and mini discs, because that’s how we rolled back in the late nineties. Still, if only they hadn’t made the next two Matrix films we could have forgiven them any oversights they may have made and the fact they all dress like they’re off to a cyber-goth night. But they didn’t, they had to journey so far up their own asses it was impossible to tell what was going on. Still, at least it has bullet-time.
Betrayal is one of the themes that runs through this atmospheric animation, about a boy and a wolf he meets who wants to protect her cubs and the boy’s left with a difficult decision that changes all their lives. Get those tissues at the ready, not for that reason, but because you may well find that a lot of you have something in your eye by the end of this tragically beautiful tale.
Channeling some Napoleon Dynamite, this will no doubt make it to your favorite song of du jour. A couple of nerdy nerd nerds ooze charisma and lay down some lo-fi lyrics about drawings of horses and Silicon Dioxide, which you’ll learn is the second most abundant mineral in the continental crust. What other song are you going to be able to say that about today?

Specially designed for the lazy web surfer, this gallery can be browsed using just your scroll wheel finger; simply scroll down, lol, then scroll down some more. Couldn’t be simpler!
Can you hear that? It’s the sound of people failing, marching onwards, an army of ineffectiveness coming towards your computer screen, bringing with them the joy of watching others’ inadequacy. So laugh it up, the belly laugh, while you can because next month it could be any one of us getting a golf tee embedded in their tongue or falling off a drain pipe.
True story bro. That’s what this is. Well, it’s actually a six minute excerpt of a story about soldier and writer Colby Buzzell and his colleagues and and their experiences in Iraq. The full length doc is called ‘Operation Homecoming: Writing the Wartime Experience’ and is a portrait of the complexities, doubts, and fears that troops experience when at war, written with searing honesty. The visual aesthetic of the doc ranges from a poet reading directly to camera, to archival footage, to an animated graphic novel and a still photo sequence shot by photographer Antonin Kratochvil.
The love between brothers is as strong a bond as you’ll find outside of the atomic world. Which is why dressing up in tight-fitting, shiny onesies and covering your face in makeup while dancing about like rejects from a Kraftwerk tribute band is something you will happily film and have millions of people watch over the internet. But after all this, their brother still left them. *sad face*
You may think Heisenberg is a monster, but he’s nothing compared to the lumbering hordes of the undead, hungry for the flesh of the living and without any human emotions whatsoever. But what if the two worlds combined? Would Hesignberg be able to turn his meth kingpin ways into an effective way to survive in a zombie apocalypse? Would Saul offer to help the zombies if the price was right?
There are 270 stations on the London Underground. Can you name every single one of them? Of course you can’t, but that’s because you haven’t listened to this song yet. After all it’s much easier to remember something in song format, so listen to this on repeat a few hundred times then maybe start a sing-a-long on your commute to work tomorrow morning.
