Meet Maurice Tillet, the real world Shrek!
This may come to you as a surprise or a silly joke, but it’s nothing but the truth. The popular CGI cartoon Shrek actually existed! Rather, his ogre-ific head was modeled after a real person; he was called Maurice Tillet and he was actually a very intelligent person: a poet and writer who could speak 14 languages, and sure enough he did use plenty of

The Five Most Racist Star Wars Characters
Don’t get us wrong attorneys; we’re not saying that George Lucas hates all minorities. After all, his first bunch of Star Wars movies handled the subject pretty well with a notable exception or two. But somewhere between the first and second Star Wars trilogies, Lucas’ imagination seems to have deteriorated to the point where he started basing all of his alien races on stereotypes. 5.

15 Great “If Star Wars Were Real” Photos
There are people who photoshop and then there are those people who take photoshop very seriously. If there’s one site that I would say takes its photoshop very seriously it’s the people who run “If Star Wars Was Real.” Now obviously we’re as big a fan of Star Wars as the next guy.

Robin Hood Review
While the performances are good – overall ‘Robin Hood’ is overly long and doesn’t tell the story you’ll want to see. Screen Rant’s Vic Holtreman reviews Robin Hood Ridley Scott’s incarnation of Robin Hood starring Russell Crowe is a prequel to the story we’re all familiar with – so it may not be the legendary story you’re

The Karate Kid International Trailer
If someone had asked me which movie I thought was going to stir the most controversy this year, I would have guessed that if a new Michael Moore, Oliver Stone or Ben Stein movie was being made, those would be the top contenders. Heck! I was thinking Legion might even draw the ire of the religious sector for pitting angels and man against

10 Weird Video Games

10 Classics Scenes from 10 Cult Movies
It’s hard to say what really makes a movie a cult classic.
