Eats Everything

@eats_everything


UK producer Eats Everything AKA Dan Pearce has been massaging peoples lobes with bass music for about a year now. His new Release 'Jagged Edge' EP came out yesterday. But you should probably go seek out his whole discography and remixes....like now. 

Here's his first music video (pretty sure it's his first)

The Book Of Mormon..... The Movie?

#TheBookOfMormon #Broadway #SouthPark



So, this is a thing, apparently.
I'm kind of excited.

At least it looks like it's going to be directed by these assholes.
I hope it's in 3D.


Back in a Month

Star Wars, The radio play.


#ECCC2012 #Starwars #Radioplay #BillyWest #TaraStrong #MauriceLaMarche #JohnDiMaggio #KevinConroy #JessHarnell #RobPaulsen

This is the greatest thing ever, have you ever wondered what it would be like if R2D2 was played by Christopher Walken? what about if George Takei was C3PO? or Stimpy was Uncle Owen? now that you're thinking about that, you should listen to/watch this.




Stop Everything WRONG COPS is here.

@oizo3000 #cannes2012

This is pure Quentin Qrazy. 

If you're a Oizo/Quentin fan there's a lot of great easter eggs in here. CHIVERS!

WRONG COPS is Quentin DUPIEUX’s third movie produced byREALITISM FILMS. It is a filthy 90 minute comedy about some disturbed cops. It is not a sequel to “WRONG”. Quentin Dupieux is just lazy with titles.

WATCH NOW!

Teasers!

#skyfall #anchorman #themaster
Phoenix is back and creepier than ever in PTA's 'The Master'
Wow so in the last couple of days some teasers have been released for some pretty amazing looking films.

Skyfall.

New Bond. Sam Mendes directing. Looks like this is going have a lot of edge to it. Ralph fiennes what?!?!





Anchorman: The Legend Continues

One of the funniest movies of all time gets a sequel. Everyone is happy about this. Also somewhat worried.

Teaser



Alternate Teaser





The Master

It's a new Paul Thomas Anderson film (wet pants excitement). It also sees the return of the infamous Joaquin Phoenix. Just like 'There Will Be Blood' this stinks of Kubrick. F YES!

Brent Spiner - what fresh hell is this?

@StarTrek @BrentSpiner #WebSeries #FreshHell



Ever since I was a kid, Brent Spiner has been my favourite obscure actor.
I even had a Data mug that I used to drink my Milo out of.

Now, Brent is back!
With a new web series that looks like it may not quite have had the same budget as Star Trek.
Fresh Hell - here's the promo.




I don't know if this is real or some publicity stunt.
I like Brent Spiner, I really do, but I'm not sure what anyone has to gain from this low-budget, low-talent satire comedy.
But hey, stranger things have happened & I look forward to actually seeing what it's all about.

Noomi Rapace gets a Prometheus Viral Video

#prometheus




























I told myself to stay spoiler free after the third Promeheus trailer got a bit Spoilerish. But this isn't really giving anything away and will almost add to your viewing experience.


WRONG COPS

@oizo3000 @edbangerrecords

Quentin has a new short coming out (the first of a few perhaps?) that will premiere at Cannes and be released online to the world May 24. Enjoy the teaser in the meantime. We're a day late on this news. Sorry.

Oh and it stars Marilyn Manson.



In other related Oizo news. Stade 3 will be released on vinyl soon. Keep an eye out on edbanger.

The Empire Strikes Back - The best SciFi film of the 1950's

@StarWars #TheEmpireStrikesBack #20thCenturyFox #GeorgeLucas


Revolution.

#revolution @jjabrams @jonfavreau

This is a thing that is happening. I don't quite know what to make of it yet. Particularly because it seems like they give away most of the shows plot line in this 5 minute trailer. I don't really have any questions about who did it, I'd rather watch people just try to survive, al'a walking dead, but I am inclined to watch at least the first episode of a show directed by Jon favreau (you will remember his directing from Iron man and Possibly also his face from couples retreat, but it's best to forget that movie and move on with your life)

AHHHHHHH!!!!

Maximise the screen and stare into the centre. Holy Balls!

Thank You Mark McMurtrie!

Moonrise Kingdom - The making of

#MoonriseKingdom #WesAndersom #RomanCoppola


The Amazing Spiderman - pre-order perks

#TheAmazingSpiderman #Spiderman #VideoGame




It's official.
Yesterday, Activision announced  The Amazing Spiderman  video game for consoles will come with some interesting perks if you jump in early and place a pre-order.
If you place a limited-time-only preorder with Amazon, you will get Stan Lee as a playable character.




....Awesome.



Oh Rockstar.


@ROCKSTARGAMES

You gotta love a game developer like Rockstar that's always determined to create something new.

Look what they have done with the Max Payne 3 multiplayer here. The Single player is looking great (even though I would have preferred it to be set in New York) but it looks like multi might keep us coming back to the game for months.



OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG WOLFENSTEIN

#Wolfenstein #PC #VideoGame



AAAAAAAGGGHHHH!!!
Retro gaming blast from the past.
One of the first ever first person shooters, Wolfenstein 3D!
A computer game that I spent many, many, many hours of my childhood playing.
It was the game that inspired Doom, which is the game that inspired EVERY FIRST PERSON SHOOTER EVER EVER EVER.

It was originally released as open source freeware, then released as a for-sale package, and now, in 2012; 20 years later.... it's free again.
FULL CIRCLE!
It's now available as an in-browser super-awesome game of doom!
GO! STOP READING THIS SHITTY BLOG!! WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR?!?!?!

Bad Moon Rising

@aintitcoolnews #BadMoonRising #ShortFilm




Friend of Castle Awesome, Brisbane director Scott Hamilton, has been getting a fair bit of attention recently for a little short film he made a couple of years ago.
Bad Moon Rising is a nifty little 8 min werewolf  short film, that was made as a teaser for the award winning feature film scrip of the same name.
I like this film, not just because a few of the Castle Awesome team who work in the film industry were part of the crew, including myself;  and not just because I owe Scott Hamilton $10 and am hoping if I say nice things about his film he'll forget,
It's because a lot of heavy weights genuinely want to be involved in the making of this feature film & it's making people really excited.
Including this obscure blog which nobody has ever heard of; Ain't It Cool News - who has recently shared their love of this short film because it marks a return to tangible filmmaking (i.e.. not overrun with shitty cgi) and a quality horror film made by people who actually want to make a good film, not just some hollywood cash cow.

Head over to Ain't It Cool News to see the full length film ahead of it ripping up the film festival circuit.

Viva La Dirt League

@Vivaladirtleagu #StarCraft


Here at CastleAwesome.com, we scour the internet for some of the weirdest, craziest (sometimes shittest) things created by humans. Well today.... Today I found something......

Presenting Viva La Dirt League.

Although it may not be everybody's cup o' tea, the videos created by Viva La Dirt League are definitely something special, even more so, if you are familiar with popular video game 'StarCraft'.

StarCraft aside, the production value of both the video and music is of top quality. It's kinda like Bad Lip Reading meets Pure Pwnage.

Their newest video, Imagine is below, and after the jump there are a few more to watch.

If you want to keep in touch with the group follow them:

Youtube: youtube.com/user/VivaLaDirtLeague

Also, if you like their newest video Imagine, you can do the group a favour and upvote it on Reddit.

UPDATED - Black Ops 2 Reveal Trailer

@BlackOpsBlog #blackops2



Thoughts?

We here at the Castle have pretty much left the Call of Duty franchise behind after the disappointment that was Modern Warfare 3.

Will this title pull us away from the divine Battlefield 3 (in multiplayer anyways)? The game engine on Black Ops II is looking terribly dated. Yuck

 


UPDATE - Just in now. We have an exclusive image of Black Ops 2 multiplayer Capture the Flag.
