M. Night Shyamalan Spoofs His ‘Devil’ Trailer

August 27, 2010 By

While the trailer for M. Night Shyamalan’s Devil has caused a stir for the wrong reason (despite it looking good, audiences groan out loud when his name comes up), Shyamalan has kept a good sense of humor. He stars in a Devil parody trailer featured on MTV called “Escalation”, where instead of being stuck on an elevator, they are stuck on an escalator. The video also stars MTV reporter Josh Horowitz, Avatar baddie Stephen Lang and Penthouse Pet Ryan Keely. Watch it after the break.

IRL: Nike’s Back To The Future Auto-Lacing Shoe

August 26, 2010 By

You may remember when we told you about the DIY auto-lacing shoes that were inspired by Back To The Future II (aka “power laces”). Now it looks like the big guns are looking to try it themselves, as Nike has filed a patent for just such a thing. Take a look at the patent and sketches after the break.

New Tron Legacy Poster Features a Hot Chick and Emerald City

August 26, 2010 By

It may be hypocritical to mention this new Tron Legacy poster from Hungary considering we neglected to cover the French poster that looks even cooler. However, I actually met Beau Garrett at Comic-Con, the actress featured in the new poster, and i can’t get over the odd-looking green Tron city in the background. Garrett plays Gem, the lead “Siren” who helps contestants of the Grid Game armor up for the big event. Check out the poster after the break.

Viral Video: “You Again” Cast Fight

August 26, 2010 By

The comedy You Again has a bevy of female stars of all ages, which usually means it would pander to soccer moms. However, the trailer looks pretty funny and director Andy Fickman has had some success in family comedies (She’s The Man, The Game Plan). The female leads also seem to have a good sense of humor, as shown in the Funny or Die video shown after the break, where Kristen Bell, Betty White, Sigourney Weaver, and Odette Yustman get into a catfight.
