Any new David Fincher movie is an event, in my opinion. But when he adapts one of the most popular novels of the past two years, it’s a potential cultural phenomenon. And with an Oct. 3 release date, Gone Girl clearly has eyes on being in the Academy Award race. Here’s the new trailer for […]

Last week, Syfy released a scene from Sharknado 2: The Second One and we were more than happy to post it here. But what we really wanted was a trailer. And now, we have one. The typical sequel move is to put more money into special effects and casting, trying to make something bigger than […]

Dungeons & Dragons has been a household brand name since the game’s meteoric rise to popularity in the early 1980s with the iconic Basic Dungeons & Dragons boxed set. TSR, Inc., the custodian of the property at that time, published a great product that was relatively easy to get into and understand but complex enough […]

Did you attend a fireworks show during the 4th of July weekend? How did that go for you and your family? That is, if you didn’t just watch fireworks as a couple or with friends. Was the evening anything like what John Oliver describes in his “comprehensive coverage” of holiday fireworks from HBO’s Last Week […]

One of the movies that will likely be drawing some Oscar buzz this winter is Foxcatcher, which tells the true story of millionaire John du Pont murdering Olympic wrestler Dave Schultz in 1996. Steve Carell is nearly unrecognizable under prosthetic makeup and a higher-pitched accent as du Pont. Mark Ruffalo plays Dave Schultz, with Channing […]

The United States of America will celebrate its 238th birthday this Fourth of July, and many Americans will spend the day firing up their grills, drinking beer, and blowing things up. Unlike its more somber brother Memorial Day, the Fourth of July is meant to be a day to celebrate and have a good time. […]

Make sure your tweets have correct spelling and use the English language properly. If not, you may be hearing from actor Kelsey Grammer. The former Frasier star (who can now be seen in Transformers: Age of Extinction) has taken it upon himself to right the wrongs that so many commit in their 140-character missives, using […]

All of the talk about the upcoming Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice has focused on Batman, Batman, Batman! (With a little bit of Wonder Woman, Lex Luthor and Aquaman sprinkled in.) But though this isn’t technically supposed to be a sequel to 2013’s Man of Steel, according to reports, Superman is still the building […]

There are days when the internet just doesn’t let you down, when it’s clear just how much of a technological and cultural benefit it adds to our lives. That became even clearer in the hours after the U.S. men’s national team was defeated by Belgium in the World Cup on Tuesday. Goalkeeper Tim Howard is […]

There are just some things you can’t say — or shouldn’t say — to people. That applies even more when you’re a celebrity or public figure. If comedian and TV host Adam Richman didn’t already know that, he may have learned his lesson after becoming unhinged while responding to commenters on Tuesday. Richman posted photos on […]

One of the funniest things our culture can give us these days is Twitter promotions gone horribly wrong. Robin Thicke asking fans to send him questions with the #AskThicke hashtag probably seemed like a fun idea at first. But being so public about trying to win back his wife Paula Patton hasn’t helped with his […]

Netflix is usually the place where the bored and relaxed go to indulge in their usual comforts. A season of a TV show you liked five years ago here, a movie starring your favorite actor there. You don’t necessarily see people leave their typical likes and dislikes. Why not use Netflix to try and discover […]

Answering the question that you may not have even considered asking, Nokia demonstrated what happens when you crack an egg underwater for its “Shareable Science” series. http://youtu.be/96_CMfzvImE Well, at least one fish out there got its source of lean protein for the day. Just like the way Rocky Balboa used to do it. [Mental Floss]
