Movies

There's no use beating around the bush here -- this was a pretty dull weekend at the box office. There was only one new release, but it was a dump that bombed rather spectacularly and the rest of the line-up is essentially the same as last week, with only a few titles shuffling around. It's the the quiet before the storm...the storm being 'The Hobbit: An Unexpected Journey,' which opens in a few d

Sometimes a movie gets made (or mostly made) but never released. Here are 12 films that still haven’t seen the light of day.

Then: In 2003's 'Bad Santa,' Brett Kelly played Thurman Merman, aka, "The Kid." The Kid befriends Billy Bob Thornton's title character, first suffering from his misanthropic nature but eventually softening the heart of the cynical St. Nick. It was the biggest role to date for the-then 10-year-old from Canada, who had made his movie debut as another character called "Kid" in the

Just try to imagine what the modern movie would be like if the world had never seen the work of legendary director Alfred Hitchcock. Murders would take place off-camera to spare audiences who have yet to be desensitized by the sight of blood puddles. Seemingly tranquil animals would always live together with humans in peace and harmony. Shower scenes would be tacked on and gratuitous.

Tim Burton is still planning on making that 'Pinocchio' movie, but before you roll your eyes too hard, at least he's hired a talented writer for the project: Jane Goldman.

Years from now, 'Raging Bull 2' (aka 'The Bronx Bull') will be the stuff of obscure trivia. The follow-up to Martin Scorcese’s Oscar-winning drama is part of a long-standing Hollywood tradition: the unwanted/unnecessary sequel. Here are some other examples that you might have forgotten about:

If Disney princesses were real, there would also be flying carpets and mermaids, which would be amazing. It almost seems possible - these look-alikes are so convincing. Here are 10 Disney princesses in real life, as in not at Disneyland. Yes, we realize that Briar Rose and Aurora are the same, but we had to give props for making bangs do that. Enjoy!

The best memes of the week are back, with whole new bunch for you. For all our readers stuck at home because of Hurricane Sandy, we know you need the entertainment. So look no further, we've got enough fresh memes to keep you laughing until the lights come back on (well, maybe not that long).

Arguably Marvel Comics’ biggest star, Spider-Man is a household name and an icon of popular culture. But how much do you really know about everyone's favorite wallcrawler?

Please Lord, not another exorcism movie! The world has seen enough 'Paranormal Activity,' too. We know how Hollywood-types love to take stuff that's already out there and make it into movies, rather than come up with their own stories, so we thought we'd offer up these urban legends as idea fodder. Yes, they will all be better than 'Urban Legend.' Promise.

We have to admit, this is better than a Chili's Express. The airport in Wellington, New Zealand is now home to this amazing Gollum installation.

We’re self-proclaimed Halloween geeks. But honestly, how can you not be? There are so many ways to celebrate the holiday that by the time October 31st rolls around, our entire lives are defined by creepy stuff and ridiculous garb. Our pets aren’t big fans of the festive takeover, but that’s never stopped us from dressing them up as a turkey dog!
