    6 Flicks You Won’t Believe Are In The Criterion Collection

    The Criterion Collection is the upper echelon of video releases. Collecting some of the most important movies in history, Criterion gives these films the royal treatment by preserving and remastering them for future generations. This usually includes such classics as Seven Samurai, Lord of the Flies and The 400 Blows. Lumped in with these classics, however, are some rather odd choices. Not necessarily bad films, but bad choices.Check out our list of films that Criterion regards as ‘important’ films that your children’s children will have the pleasure of watching as classics after the jump.

  • 21 Film Franchises With WAY Too Many Sequels

    21 Film Franchises With WAY Too Many Sequels

    When a good movie ends up being a big box-office success, studios automatically think ‘sequel’ no matter what happened in the previous installment. It makes sense when called for (loose ends, other plausible storylines, etc.) but producers have a way of running something into the ground until it’s no longer profitable. Today, we view anything beyond a trilogy as overkill but before the 70s, it was commonplace to pump out a sequel EVERY year. Some series have 21 or more installments. Thank the Big Man upstairs TV came along. Anyway, check out our list of film franchises with way too many sequels and let us know if we missed any in the comments after the jump.

    The 13 Best & Worst Aliens In Movie History

    Aliens will soon be descending on the western front in Cowboys & Aliens. In the movies, aliens have always come down to Earth to either greet us or eat us. Sometimes the aliens are a masterpiece of genetics and intelligence. Other times they are just dopey shmucks who just sort of wandered onto our planet accidentally. Hopefully when it happens for real, they’ll be the latter. We pulled up a list of the best and worst aliens, rated by their bad@ssery. Check out the gallery after the jump.

    The 20 Best Road Trip Movies Of All-Time [VIDEOS]

    Driving hours across long stretches of farmland in the middle of nowhere doesn’t make for the most appealing of journeys. Thank goodness there are movies that take something as excruciatingly boring and turn it into something entertaining albeit utterly implausible. So if you find yourself dreading the lengthy voyage from point A to point B, just think about these road trip classics. Just don’t try to reenact as I’m pretty most of the events in these movies are illegal. See our picks after the jump.

    Film Fact Or Fiction: Can You REALLY Hack These 5 Devices?

    Movies are provocative, stimulating, and compelling. But we often forget they’re FICTIONAL. That’s how good they are. They make you believe what’s happening on the screening is real or at least believable. Scary that most moviegoers blindly accept what they see on the silver screen. If someone’s introduction to the internet was from the movie The Net, they’d never leave the house fearing that their pacemaker can be hacked into. Is this fear really warranted?

    The 10 Best & Worst Video Games Based on Movies

    By now we’re all numb to the marketing tie-ins for movies. It’s not at all uncommon today to see movies being promoted through clothing, cereal and, of course, video games. Since the goal of a video game tie-in is to gain popularity and advertising for the film in question, one doesn’t expect too much. Sometimes, however, the game can be a faithful homage that complements what we love so much about these movies. Other times the video game is nothing more than a cash-in. Check out COED’s list of movie video games that we remember for better or worse after the jump.

  • 12 Best Box Office “Flops” [VIDEOS, POLL]

    12 Best Box Office “Flops” [VIDEOS, POLL]

    Many believe the box-office is the most critical aspect of what makes or breaks a film; it decides whether or not the film gets a sequel, an amusement ride, merchandising or a reservation at the bottom of the bargain bin. While most box office bombs are just plain bad, others were victims of poor promotional efforts, stiff competition, and/or other uncontrollable circumstances. Movies like Waterworld and The Golden Compass, which are widely perceived as bombs by the general public, actually made back their money through syndication and international distribution. This list will focus on those movies that did terribly at the box-office, but are considered good because of their cult status and/or success on DVD,  Blu-ray, and on demand. Check it out then vote in our poll after the jump!

    5 Signs A Movie Is Guaranteed to Bomb

    If it wasn’t obvious from the ticket sales, movies are becoming more expensive to produce. Be it the special effects or the overpriced talent, it’s expensive to make a movie you hope to hit theaters nationally. That being said, nobody wants to produce a movie that won’t make a nice profit. The only way you can do better in this industry is if you study what gets people’s butts into the theater and what sends them fleeing from a flick like a cinematic abortion. Here are a few elements we’ve learned from past data that suggests a movie will be a dud at the box-office. Check them out after the jump!
