Last week I took a pounding for hating on some classic movies.   Except the Hangover … seems most of the super intelligent OL crowd didn’t fall for that movie.   This week I want to move on to happier topics, like death.   What makes a good death scene?   Dying for ones beliefs and convictions?   Sure, that’ll do.   Giving some epic prose before sloughing off this mortal coil?   Sure, that’s a good one too.   I think that a great death scene has meaning.   This means that we have to care about the characters, no easy feat.   So here they are, my top 5 Death Scenes.

Just be warned, there are spoilers ahead for the following movies: Star Wars, LA Confidential, Saving Private Ryan, Blade Runner, and Highlander: End Game.

Here’s a whole slew of new Prometheus  pictures. I have to say, the fucking space suits in this movie are putting my Mass Effect-tribbing, 2001-masturbating, Blade Runner-licking crotch into overdrive. NeedxInfinity.

Mahky-mahk, Russian Babe McGee, and Peter Griffin team up for a movie about a living teddy bear. Yeah, I’ll give you a minute to re-read that. The thing is, Seth MacFarlane is a pretty clever bastard when he wants to be. Remember when Family Guy was good? You know, before he relinquished creative control and then it devolved into Misogyny Weekly? So I actually have semi-high hopes for this. I mean, if anything, it’ll be a raunchy comedy for me to enjoy; I probably laughed way harder than I was supposed to while watching this.

Hit the jump to watch the VERY MUCH NSFW trailer.

Here’s a poster for the Avengers  with Nick Fury and Agent Coulson. Legit question: does anyone actually give a fuck about Agent Coulson? I’m genuinely interested.

Two new promo clips for Amazing Spider-Man  have leaked courtesy of cell phone devices. They’re low-quality as shit, but what really strikes me is how much they’re playing up the Parker as humorously dickish. Too much? Dig it? Let me know after you check them out.

Alex Jones is awesome. He’s the sort of crazy-asshole who mixes just enough reality into his deranged rantings to make his conspiracy theories entertaining. This one is particularly choice. Having “gotten an early script” of Prometheus, the dude claims that its actually about…the Illuminati. Well, I’m sold!

Hit the jump to check it out.

I thought that Tom Cruise in Rock of Ages  was going to be a goddamn train wreck. What I didn’t realize was that the movie wasn’t going to take itself seriously. It’s a uh, comedy? I’m not certain. All I know is that while I watching the trailer I felt moderately entertained while trying to figure out how serious this flick’s tone was intended  to be.

Roland Emmerich. Dude loves  blowing up the White House. Can’t get enough of it. I get this. He’s got a fetish. What I don’t get is how this guy keeps getting movies.

Here’s a glimpse at Christopher Waltz on the set of Django Unchained. The good sir Waltz plays a bounty hunter who goes by the name of  Dr. King Schultz and teams up with Jamie Foxx’s character to lay down some death and revenge. Righteous.

Edgar Wright has been jawing about making an Ant-Man  movie for years now. In fact if I recall correctly its noise was filtered through the pop-psyche even before Scott Pilgrim. Nothing has really seemed to come about from all the chatter though, and as such I’ve disregarded any excitement I once had for the film. However if the noise out of Kevin Feige’s mouth is accurate, I may need to don my Cloak of The Excite!
