Fallout trailer
Did someone tell me that the English producer/director Tupaq Felber is attempting to do a six-part adaptation of Peter Bagge's Apocalypse Nerd for the BBC and I just conveniently forgot? Egad, I hope not. At any rate, above is the teaser trailer Felber put together.

Read Y The First Draft For Yourself
Y the Last Man
Wondering what the movie version of Y: The Last Man will turn out like? A sneak peak appeared online in the form of an early draft of the movie's script, written by creator Brian K. Vaughan.
The script had been available at My PDF Scripts, but has since been removed. The script, written by Vaughan, was written earlier in the movie's development, and has been replaced by a script by the project's current director, DJ Caruso.
(Sorry to all who clicked through to see it'd been removed!)

Battle Angel Alita – James Cameron
Now that Avatar is in theatres, it's time for legendary filmmaker James Cameron to set his sights on his next big project. Time and time again, we've been hearing that it'll be Battle Angel Alita, but things are a lot more solid now that Cameron's partner in crime, Jon Landau, is talking about how it definitely will happen.
After Avatar 2, of course.
Speaking with MTV's Splash Page, Landau talks about how invested Cameron is in the project, along with some of the developments they've had with the script. Talking about Cameron and Laeta Kalogridis working together on the script:
We were familiar with the anime that had been produced, we were familiar with one of the main books. But she opened us up to the other nine books that exist, and how rich that world is.
So, there will be a greater focus on the manga as opposed to the original intention of drawing mostly from the anime. An expanded world, more intensity, and a new name. According to Landau, Cameron only does T&A-titled movies. We might see Alita: Battle Angel across the marquee a few years down the road.

The Slumber Party Massacre – Review
Slumber Party Massacre Poster
I don't why I subject myself to these movies but hey maybe I'm just a glutton for punishment. Anyways this afternoon's movie is "the slumber party massacre". Now saw this this little gem on the Internet and I thought to myself, "boy this looks so bad as to be truly awful". And well it was, I did a quick lookup on wiki and for a 1982 slasher film it pretty much delivered exactly on what it promised poor acting and lots of blood and a most hilarious choice of murder implements.
Now before you go on and think well maybe "I'll watched this movie". I just have to tell you that like many of its contemporaries, this film used female nudity and gore to reach its teenage male audience arms so there isn't really much in the way of plot except murdering and tits so you have been warned that this movie is all about quantity not quality.
Right so basically it's a slumber party. Attractive girls letting their hair down and parading around skimpy clothes. It sounds like every possible male fantasy come true, except that guys aren't invited. Of course we sneak around the house peer through the windows rattle some doors and pretty much just look at the women changing in and out of lingerie. Now the problem is that the women are onto us, they invite us inside and then of course, a homicidal maniac starts killing everyone and guess who draws the short straw and has to go outside and try hunt him down? you guessed it the meat shields a.k.a. the dumb men.
There were some plot elements involving a basketball team and some other stuff but we all know that is not the reason anyone would watch this trash. So I won't go into any more detail 
So long story short you see some breasts, there is some killing somebody knocks the killer down instead of killing them they just run away as per usual. However I did learn a couple of things basically if you think you're getting tracked down by a serial killer or homicidal maniac don't have sex. I also learned never to wear black panties under tight yellow shorts and most importantly back in the 80s one in four teenage girls had breast implants.
I know that there is gonna be a lot of grammar errors, this is due to my laziness and the fact that I have not trained DNS very much or very well.

Police Academy 1 (1984) – Review
Police Academy 1 Poster
The first of a whopping seven films in the series, two short-lived television series, and it’s still the only one worth watching, Police Academy is an amiable, juvenile romp that is recommended for a few belly laughs and a number of moments to smile at. This was one of the most popular of many early 80s films to feature a cast of misfits who find strength in unity, becoming heroes in the end (Stripes and Revenge of the Nerds are other prime examples).
Police Academy Promo Picture
Steve Guttenberg (Three Men and a Baby, Cocoon) plays Mahoney, a lifetime troublemaker who ends up being ordered to go to a police academy to learn what it's like to be one of the police officers having to deal with creeps like him. With a new mayor in town, there is a new policy, whereby anyone can enroll into a police academy, regardless of weight, age, height, etc. Now all sorts of cadets are competing for a chance to be a police officer, but the powers that be within the academy want to make sure none of these sorry recruits ever hit the streets.
Not all of the jokes work, and some of them are downright bad, but for the most part, it's done all in good cheer. There's a laid back charm to it all, with some funny eccentric characters interacting and playing pranks in some genuinely funny ways. Guttenberg's the star, but he's easily overshadowed by some of the zany supporting cast, most notably Michael Winslow's (Spaceballs) one-man sound machine, George Gaynes (Henry from "Punky Brewster") "many many" funny expressions, and David Graf's "Dirty Harry" extreme. However, the best comic performance goes to G.W. Bailey (Sgt. Luther Rizzo from "M*A*S*H"), as the antagonistic Lt. Harris, whose comeuppance makes for the film's funniest gags.
It's raunchy, lowbrow entertainment for those in the mood for it. Police Academy is as easy to watch as it is easy to forget, but just don't forget this: if you have a good time watching, don't be tempted to view any of the god-awful sequels.

Special Dead ma
Yes, that is indeed a wheelchair bound dude with a chainsaw. How could that NOT be awesome?! That’s like a drive-by chainsawing! Of ZOMBIES! Let’s get a taste of the plot, shall we?
When a zombie plague infects Camp Special Dude, a dude ranch for the mentally handicapped, a ragtag band of campers and counselors struggles to survive the night. Led by the indifferent, nunchuck-wielding head counselor, Mac, and his wheelchair-bound sister Dale, the unlikely heroes fight their way off the mountain as, one by one, they’re picked off and join the ranks of the walking dead. It’s a campy stampede of blood, boobs and gore as some “very special” people show that they can kick some serious undead ass.
I highlighted my favorite parts of the summary. Almost just highlighted the whole thing, but figured I’d make an effort to pick out some stuff. Such as the nunchuck-weilding, or the girl named “Dale”. Oh yeah, and “Camp Special Dude”. That’s fantastic. I’m just not clever enough to come up with THAT offensive of a name for a summer camp for handicapped people. You can’t fake that kind of artistic mastery.
Now, if horribly mean-spirited movies about zombie retards are too offensive for you, perhaps you’d prefer Sars Wars: Bangkok Zombie Crisis.

Man Talk
This is a James Bond Classic. There is not way in hell you could get away with this in modern cinema.
In this Bond installment agent 007 investigates a smuggling operation run by the obsessive Billionaire Auric Goldfinger and uncovers a plot to irradiate the entire gold supply of the United States by detonating an atomic bomb inside Fort Knox in Kentucky.
In my opinion this little snipped is the best part of the movie. Sit back watch the 0:20 and prepare to chuckle.
Thanks for reminding me about this Rach 
Bond: Do you expect me to talk?
Goldfinger: No, Mr. Bond. I expect you to die!

ZMD: Zombies of Mass Destruction (2009) – Trailer
Poster #1
Poster #2
The film joins Dread, The Graves, Hidden and Lake Mungo as part of the "8 Films to Die for" lineup. Directed by Kevin Hamedani, life in a conservative small town is complicated enough for a young Iranian-American woman and a not-completely-out gay couple, but now they also have to deal with zombie hordes in this splatter-filled comedy.
I wish they had these kinds of events in little old NewZealand. I would love to attend a horror movie fest like his, alas it is not to be so I have to wait for these puppies to be available on dvd months after the events have finished. Enough of me moaning about horror movies. watch the trailer to ZMD already.
