One Disney-Star Wars-Movie per Year
Disney hat während einer Präsentation auf der CinemaCon einen Star Wars-Film pro Jahr ab 2015 angekündigt. Anscheinend sollen die SpinOff-Filme im Jahr nach den Episoden-Filmen anlaufen, also Episode VII, Spinoff, Episode VIII, Spinoff etc etc ad infinitum. Für mich klingt das so, wie die Etablierung eines neuen Expanded Universe im Kino. Ich… muss da erstmal drüber nachdenken, ein simples WTF reicht hier für’s erste.
It sounds like not only is Disney making the projects summer 2015 release date for Star Wars: Episode VII a reality, but their presentation at CinemaCon revealed that they plan on releasing a Star Wars film every summer following that. The releases will alternate between the milestone episodes of the new trilogy and the standalone films that have been confirmed to be in the works. There were rumblings that the standalone films would be released between Episodes VII, VIII and IX, but this is the first we’ve heard from Disney about their plans to release a new Star Wars film every year following Episode VII in 2015.
Breaking Bad returns August 11th. Also: Breaking Bath Salt
Breaking Bad Meth-Badesalz, cooked in Albuquerque (via Laughing Squid). Must have! Und vielleicht gibt’s demnächst nochmal Zombie-Kannibalen auf einem Badesalz-Meth-Trip, dann kann ich mir die Headline „Real Life Zombie-Attack thru Breaking Bad Meth-Bathsalt“ ins Blog kleben. Freu’ ich mich drauf, sehr.
Whether you’re an underappreciated science teacher or a kid from the wrong side of the tracks, sometimes the only way to relax is to take a bath.
Crafted from all-natural ingredients under strictly controlled conditions, the Bathing Bad Bath Salts are vastly superior to the bath salts you might cop on the corner. Because we buy serious weight, we can offer these 8oz bags at street value, so kick back and relax in the bath with these crystals… just don’t tell the narcos.
Und auch nicht ganz so unwichtig: AMC hat grade Details und ein Datum zu den letzten acht Breaking Bad-Folgen bekannt gegeben, die finale Staffel läuft ab dem 11. August, inklusive einer an „Talking Dead“ angelehnten Talkshow zur Serie. Außerdem denken sie mittlerweile (sehr) laut über ein Breaking Bad-Spinoff mit Anwalt Saul Goodman nach.
AMC has announced that the final eight episodes of its highly lauded, cultishly followed moral disaster series Breaking Bad will begin airing on August 11. Meaning you have just under four months to lock in your theories about what will happen to meth-makin’ Walter White and all those caught in his web of horror.
The network also announced that each episode will indeed be followed by Talking Bad, a wrap-up show done in the style of Talking Dead, the inexplicably popular Walking Dead post-mortem hosted by Chris Hardwick.

Eclectic Methods Hacker-Mashup
Johnny von Eclectic Method writes:
You don’t use the same password over and over right? Let’s be honest this is the day and age of the hacker. Eclectic Method brings you “Hackers” , Hollywood’s celebration of basement dwelling 128 bit encryption masters. They’ll shut down before you can trace them, hack into the mainframe and go straight for the kernel, hell they might even insert a worm on the back of a trojan. Keanu Reeves has been one, Angelina Jolie has been one and Matthew Broderick was one before he was Ferris Bueller.
Shall we play a game? Spot every movie in this hackisode….
Famous Headshaves recreated while Shaving Head
Redditorin Whistlesandshit wollte vor ein paar Monaten unbedingt auf ein Ben Folds Five-Konzert und da sie noch nicht alt genug war, hat sie sich die Haare rasiert um mit dem Pass ihres Bruders hinzugehen. Und als sie sich die Haare rasiert hat, stellte sie berühmte Haarrasierungen aus Filmen nach. In’s Konzert ist sie zwar nicht reingekommen, die Aktion ist allerdings trotzdem großartig!
Did not get in to the concert, but don’t fret, because I saw BF5 and caught their setlist at Bonnaroo last year. The “photobomb” in the Les Mis one was intentional, yes. My friend crawled out our window for it because she is rad. Sorry for the ones I forgot, but if it makes anyone feel better I have a friend who started calling me Demi.
I didn’t donate to Locks of Love because of the way we cut it off, but I did keep my hair in a bag in my room for an inordinate amount of time. Which was sort of weird.

Russ Meyer x Star Wars-Actionfigures
Neue Custom Actionfigures von Jamie „Sillof“ Follis, ein Toy-Mashup aus Russ Meyer und Star Wars. Whoa! Die Teile wurden von Patton Oswalt in Auftrag gegeben und er hat sie Roger Ebert gewidmet, der ein paar mal mit Russ Meyer zusammengearbeitet hatte.
It’s the Star Wars universe as interpreted by Russ Meyer. Busty, pneumatic amazons in all of the male roles, with one Li’l Abner-stlye lunkhead in the Princess Leia role. Cars and liquor and 60’s-style garage rock. And, except for a couple of names and character ideas (I came up with “Darla Vade” and insisted she be modeled after the immortal Tura Satana) Sillof came up with the whole story, and all of the other characters. A film buff as well as a craftsman, this man.
What’s bittersweet about the whole thing is, Roger Ebert never got to see these. I turned him on to Sillof’s site last year. He especially loved the Noir Wars figures.
And I sent him the title logo of this set as a tease just a few months ago. As someone who’d worked with Russ Meyer (Ebert was going to write the collaboration between Meyer and the fucking Sex Pistols, fer chrissakes) he was more than intrigued. But I never rush an artist, whether they’re going a poster or album cover or especially something like this.
So this set’s for you, Roger.

Jaws in a Bottle
Großartig! Die Orca und ihre Besatzung, Brody, Quint und Hooper und Bruce, der Hai, als Modellschiff in einer Flasche von Heather Gabrielle Rogers. Ich hätte mir ja die Schlußszene mit nem halben Quint in Bruce’ Maul auf einer sinkenden Orca gewünscht, aber egal… Hier ein Making Of, da der Blog-Eintrag dazu.
I was excited when last summer, I was requested to develop a scene from the movie “Jaws,” in a bottle. As I began to think of the movie, many scenes of the 1975 thriller started flashing through my mind, and I even shivered at the idea of recreating the massive man-eater that would go in the bottle.
I had seen the movie when I was a teenager and still to this day have moments of silly fear when I go for a swim at the beach, imagining that a killer shark may be lurking not far off. So, my ultimate goal became how could I literally bottle up all those emotions, along with the overall scene that was to go in the bottle.

RogerEbert.com relaunched:
Roger Ebert hatte bis zu seinem Tod an einem Relaunch seiner Website gearbeitet und den haben sie jetzt trotz’ der traurigen Nachricht durchgezogen. Finde ich toll, die neue Website ist sowas wie sein Erbe für jeden Cineasten da draußen:
Roger was an innovator in so many ways. From democratizing movie criticism and bringing it to a more mainstream audience, to publishing his reviews to Compuserve at the dawn of the Internet, Roger was always pushing the envelope. It was a great challenge to develop a product that would meet his exacting standards, but he loved the site when he last saw it, and we’ll do our best to continue to develop something he’d be proud of.
