How Disney Makes Their Lifelike Animations
Ready to have your mind blown, children of Disney's classics?
First of all, you know how Tinkerbell and Alice and Maleficent and all those were flitting around, doing their melodic little dances of whimsy and whatnot? Yeah, well, to help the animators capture those moments in cartoon form, there were sets of real-life performers who acted the various scenes out for reference. Seriously.
For example, do you remember the Mad Hatter watch scene in "Alice In Wonderland"? Kooky as that fella was, a vaudeville star named Ed Wynn played out the scene first.
It's pretty good in human form too, no? Get More »

The 9 Spookiest Kids' Movies
Focus Features
It's Halloween night. Do you know what movies your children are watching?
It wouldn't be the most wonderful holiday of the year without a double- or triple-feature of scary movies to go with the tricking and treating. While there are plenty of R-rated slasher flicks to please big brother and sister in the other room, there are also a fair amount of PG-rated spookfests that provide good, clean fun (and scares!) for the under-13 crowd in the basement.

Disney's 50 Finest: In Order of Awesome
Disney
Just days before the release of "Tangled," Disney shocked the world by announcing the film would be their last fairy tale princess story. But while there was much wailing, another, more positive milestone has been somewhat overlooked: "Tangled" marked the studio's 50th animated feature.
We know what you're thinking: Surely Disney has made more than 50 movies, right? And it's true, they have. But if there's one thing Disney knows even more than animation, it's how to protect their brand, which is why they've designated some of their features to be official classics and others -- like "The Jungle Book 2" or "Pete's Dragon" -- to be, you know, just something they do on the side for giggles and grins.
To celebrate the release of "Beauty and the Beast 3D," we review and rank all 50 official Disney animated features. Get More »

It's nice when you have a bazillion dollars for your next feature film, but, more often than not, you have to stick to some sort of budget (sigh) and shelling out $20 million to one star on set isn't exactly a good start. (Sorry, Leo.) But don't despair. Just find yourself an actor who gives you the best bang for the buck.
Financially speaking, of course.
Topping the Forbes list of actors who provide the highest return on investment are (no surprises here) "Twilight" hotties Kristen Stewart, in first, and Robert Pattinson, in third. Get More »

The 9 Best Movie Parody Porn Trailers
Hustler
Search for your favorite film trailer on YouTube and you may be in for a disturbing surprise. More and more frequently, the makers of fine pornography everywhere have taken to churning out elaborate reproductions or "parodies" of Hollywood films.
These movies can be dead ringers for the originals, only the action has been replaced with...a different kind of action, and the acting has been replaced with...truly awful acting. We must admit: The trailers for these instant classics are fascinating, not for the sex (which is absent in the trailers) but for the way they earnestly strive for allusive respectability. Get More »
