It’s no surprise that the Coen Brothers make some of the most memorable characters in movie history. Each of their movies seem to have a perfect balance between quirky hilarious and downright terrifying. Even their one movie I never seemed to comprehend, A Serious Man, had some decent memorable characters. Here’s the list of my five favorite characters from their very long and impressive resume. Feel free to chime in when you feel as though I’ve forgotten somebody.

We’re really not a video gaming website, though it might be a direction I want to take it in the future. But this is a rare case where television meets video games. If you haven’t heard, South Park has returned with its 16th season and the jokes are absurd, crude, and hilarious as ever. News says that creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker are now in the progress of making video game about the town of South Park, Colorado. While there have been South Park games in the past, this is the first one including heavy involvement from Parker and Stone. If this game has 10+ years of mythlore of the series in it and there is an RPG element that is rumored, then I’ll want these 9 favorites on my team to take down whatever darkness might incur on the streets of South Park.

There are a lot of lists that include the best movies ever. Each list has its own personality and every movie on it has its own credibility and worthwhile aspects to be watched. So if you ever wanna burn through 100 movies. As for me…I’m at 64/100. If you’re lower than me, you have work to do. If you’re higher than me, movie film points for you.

The Chive has created this awesome graphic giving you reasons to not take his daughter. With Taken 2 coming around the bend and the original Taken not being horrible, there’s decent reason to start getting excited. The graphic below gives you lessons based on Neeson’s career as to why taking his daughter is a horrible idea. My favorite: He Trained Batman

Pixar has a knack for creating some of the most lovable animated characters to ever hit the screen. They’ve done more than 10 movies where each of them has at least 2 or 3 likable/lovable characters. So I’ve made a list of my 5 favorites below.

An odd title, yes, that’s why it grabbed my attention when I came across this. This list literally has ten movies where there is a creepy ‘stare’ scene that simply grabs our attention and doesn’t let us go. Hit the link and see if you can win a staring contest with these pros.

Dialogue is the writer’s way to speak the characters soul in a movie. It relays personality, interests, priorities, and values that we come to love about our favorite movie characters. Too much of it however, can be a bad thing. Not in all cases, but most people don’t like people who have an infinite battery source on the chatterbox. The ramblings of a disillusioned man or even an intelligent man can usually tend to get on our nerves. Today I’ve compiled a rather small list [but equipped with videos as well as images] of some of the biggest chit-chat-kats in the movie galaxy that are worthy of your note. As usual, please let me know who I’ve missed. I like my mind stimulated as much as yours.

UGO does a good job in compiling lists and can be compared to Cracked.com. Which is a humungous compliment to them. They’ve listed a couple of movies of where kid’s movies have adult innuendos. Not all kids movies are strictly for kids. There are a couple of jokes that simply fly over their heads and the parents and baby sitters put their hands over their mouths and giggles. Here’s the link.

Last week, it sort of felt as though I bashed being a movie buff in preference for being a television buff with so many television related posts. I can feel sometimes that I relay the imbalance of movies and television and I have to remind myself that I still need to write about movies every once in a while. I haven’t really been to a movie theater as of late and all the movies I’ve been watching are either old or terrible, neither of which warrants a full blow review. And I tire of lists that hold little relevance. So I kind of went into the mind process of when I wrote about my ‘television ratio’ and ‘reasons to watch television’. Today I write to defend the movie buff honor and claim how pride I am to being one. Below I’ve compiled a list of 5 reasons or better yet, perks to being a movie buff. Read below.

I’m a guy and I can totally relate to this list. As soon as I saw Malcolm Reynolds at number 25, I knew this list would be A-okay. If you’re a gal who simply loves the lovable, hunky, brave, what-have-you men that fill up the silver screen, this is a list that’s totally for you. Empire Online has compiled what they believed the 25 sexiest movie/tv personalities were and they even put a little ‘do you agree or disagree’ poll for each one. Be sure to check it out

College Humor hysterically rewrote a realistic tag line to the Best Picture nominees. They’re sarcastic, satiric, and dead-on. Go here for some of the few I left out, but check below to see the rest.

It’s no surprise that many movies have tried to copy the repeating success of a film franchise. No one movie alone can beat the strength of a franchise in terms of box office. Everyone beginning film wants to be the next Star Wars, Harry Potter, or Lord of the Rings. But where these franchises have succeeded, about 3-5 have failed. Below you’ll find The Golden Compass, Lemony Snicket’s A Series of Unfortunate Events, and Eragon. While not all these films are bad [Mystery Men is in there, and I absolutely loved that movie], either their box office or uncommitted stars stopped these films from become sequels or even more.

Absurd things like the rappelling scene in Mission Impossible are like the dreams of a fantasia screen writer. However, these 6 scenes were inspired by events that actually happened. Check out this other Cracked article that compiled this awesome list.

Quentin Tarantino is a bonafide movie director, so his list of favorite movies is fairly significant. Check ’em out, I fairly agree with his list, but maybe the order could be changed up a little bit.

Little did you internet people know, today is my birthday. And here I am continually writing stuff for you on a day where I should be relaxing and not worrying about stuff. Sheesh, the things I do for you. Nah, I’m just kidding. I love this and writing for you guys is my vacation from the Hell hole of a school that I attend [JK, it’s not THAT bad]. So that wraps up today. I’m 20 years old now. Goddammit. I’m old. It felt like yesterday when I watched this television show and this movie. But low and behold these are from the goddammed 90s!! Sweet mama pajama. Okay, enough with me facing my own mortality. Someone get me a shot of something strong.

Recently, I’ve been crushing so much television. Caught up with FX’s Archer and Justified. Looking into Life’s Too Short and Extras. Then there’s The Walking Dead that’s returned [one more episode till I decide my verdict on whether this show is still worth watching]. Awake and Game of Thrones come mid spring. And then a dry summer just gets us amped for Fall television. I’d say it’s almost a one year anniversity before I started taking television seriously. I remember a long time ago, my friends saying, ‘do you watch Parks and Recreation?’ ‘did you see last night’s Office?’ I was always left out of these conversations, trying to sway them to talk about movies for something I could possibly geek out about. Around this time last year, I finally started digging into television. Soon enough I had NBC’s Community, Parks and Recreation, and the Office entire series under my belt. Then Friends. Then suddenly I started craving more and more, catching up on Dexter, Firefly and more until the point where I’ve devoured everything from Arrested Development to more obscure TV shows like Better Off Ted. Now I find myself watching tons more hours of television than movies. I honestly say the ratio hours spent looking at a screen for television to movies is about 3:1. That’s maybe 3 hours of tv for one hour of movies. Translate a two hour movie, that means I watch 7 hours of television for 2 hours of movies. 7 hours of television either translates to 20 30-minute block, or 10 one-hour blocks.
Read below for a weekly take down in of my watching schedule and my thoughts on it.

USDIRECT.com created this sweet boardgame that pitches the study group against each other for priority registration. Roll the dice and battle through hilarious trivia, references, and jokes in a Candyland-esque fashion as you make way for priority registration. Check below for the entire image as well as click on it to get a full version. You may want to save this to print out later for an actual board game. TV kudos to anyone who actually does this.
In other Community news: Community is reschedule to come back March 15th at 8:00 pm. Unfortunately this pitches it up against Thursday night powerhouse Big Bang Theory, but in the state of NBC, I’m sure it will remain one of the stronger candidates for renewel.
In other, other Community news: I recently watched The Descendants [wait for my review next week along with Hugo], and I saw Jim Rash aka Dean Pelton was one of the main accredited writers. I would love to see a Jim Rash acceptance speech, but not over a Kristen Wiig acceptance speech. But in all honesty I would just love it if any of those two showed up and held one of those statues.
