Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:

I love the idea that vampires are sort of like the theater community, devoted to an ancient art that is only enjoyed by a minority of people. Plus, they have to stay off the human sauce because eating mortals is considered a bit low class and barbaric these days.

Pacific Rim - Con Footage [HD]

This was originally intended for only WonderCon, but after listening to so many of you asking for more of the movie online, I think it's time for me to show you more footage. Enjoy, my friends!
- Guillermo del Toro.
Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:

From acclaimed filmmaker Guillermo del Toro comes "Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary Pictures Pacific Rim." 
When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity's resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes—a washed up former pilot (Charlie Hunnam) and an untested trainee (Rinko Kikuchi)—who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind's last hope against the mounting apocalypse.


This is the weirdest thing i have seen this week -

I'm very intrigued by this film. Visually, it looks great and the story doesn't seen complicated. Sometimes you just need a film where you can just sit back and take it in.

Jim Broadbent to Star in BBC's 'Great Train Robbery' TV Movie - Hollywood Reporter

Jim Broadbent to Star in BBC's 'Great Train Robbery' TV Movie - Hollywood Reporter | Machinimania | Scoop.it
Jim Broadbent to Star in BBC's 'Great Train Robbery' TV Movie Hollywood Reporter LONDON – Oscar winner Jim Broadbent has signed on to star in the second installment of screenwriter Chris Chibnall's two-part TV movie The Great Train Robbery for BBC...
Henrik Safegaard - Cloneartist's insight:

The so-called "great train robbery" is one of the U.K.'s most infamous heists, involving the fleecing of the Royal Mail train in 1963 by a team of thieves who made off with millions of dollars.

The script tells the story of Butler and the crack team of detectives he assembled in his relentless quest to bring the robbers to justice. The 90-minute film details how the team worked under the pressure of media scrutiny and carried out an investigation in the full glare of the nation.

Reserve Your SpaceShipTwo Seat Now — Big Price Increase Coming Soon | Parabolic Arc

Reserve Your SpaceShipTwo Seat Now — Big Price Increase Coming Soon | Parabolic Arc | Machinimania | Scoop.it

Although Virgin Galactic has promised to eventually lower prices on its suborbital space tourism flights aboard SpaceShipTwo, it looks like prices are actually going up 25 percent in the near term.

 

In an interview broadcast Monday night on KABC-TV 7 News Los Angeles, Branson said a seat on the suborbital space plane would now cost $250,000 — an increase of $50,000 from the price the company has been advertising for eight years.

 

Now, does that seem a bit counter-intuitive, wouldn’t it? Absolutely. But, this is actually a clever marketing move. How so? Now, you really didn’t think I’d tell you before the break, did you?

While the love of film may be ineffable, one thing is clear about digital: with so many cheap and proven options to film with dedicated digital cameras, shooting on a smartphone is a very deliberate directorial choice. It might be the less cumbersome gear to carry that drives smartphone filmmakers, or it could be how their greater portability opens up previously unexplored creative possibilities.
