Red Dead Redemption Short Film Trailer Video | Rockstar Game Movie By John Hillcoat

Posted: 30 May 2010 09:09 AM PDT

Red Dead Redemption is a new game from Rockstar, makers of the ever-popular Grand Theft Auto series. It was released on PS3 and Xbox 360 last week, and has proved to be a huge hit around the world.

To promote the game, Rockstar commissioned John Hillcoat (The Road, The Proposition) to make a short film using the in-game engine. This is the trailer for the resulting Red Dead Redemption short film.

The Red Dead Redemption short film premiered on Fox at midnight last night (Saturday, May 29). Although the full film isn’t yet available to watch online, it’s expected that it will be in time. For now, you’ll have to make do with the trailer.

This is an intriguing concept, because it could mean short films made from video games become the norm. It could also reinvigorate the Western movie genre, which hasn’t been massively popular for decades now.

Watch Awesome Top Gear Bolivia Road Trip Special (Vid) | Which Vehicle Will Survive?

Posted: 30 May 2010 08:35 AM PDT

Jeremy Clarkson, James May and Richard Hammond travelling 1000 miles through rainforests and cliffside roads to the coast of Chile in pre-owned vehicles bought locally in Bolivia for less than £3,500 each?

This should get interesting.

I may not be a person who is very much ‘into’ cars, but I love watching Top Gear. The Bolivia special? Awesome.

I love the challenges these guys come up with. Who wouldn’t love to have their jobs?

Mind you, there are moments on this trip that got downright scary, and I wouldn’t have wanted to be there at the time, that’s for sure.

But at least we know which off-road vehicle really is the best.

Classic Will Ferrell Comedy Web Video | Will and Pearl in “The Landlord”

Posted: 29 May 2010 06:13 PM PDT

A couple of years ago we looked at Will Ferrell appearing alongside tiny tot Pearl in her final web appearance. At the time we mentioned a more popular vid The Landlord, so I figured it was about time we brought you that too!

It’s the shock factor that makes this video work. The sight of pint-sized Pearl cussing out Will Ferrell and begging for booze money is priceless. I also can’t get my niece to focus on anything for more than two minutes, so I’m impressed that this little one has learned all those lines.

It may not be the best example of parenting from Pearl’s folks, but it’s not my kid so I can have a laugh!

Ozzy Osbourne Prank Video | Rock Singer Scares Crap Out Of Fans At Madame Tussauds

Posted: 29 May 2010 03:07 PM PDT

Two things I’d be scared of: Ozzy Osbourne; a Madame Tussaud’s waxwork coming to life. Combine the two and you have a crap your pants inducing moment to tell your friends about.

Ozzy Osbourne has always been beloved by heavy metal fans, thanks to being lead singer of Black Sabbath, and his solo career. However, his popularity extended massively when MTV filmed him and his family for The Osbournes.

Since then, Ozzy’s career has seen a resurgence, Sharon is a huge TV star, and Jack and Kelly are also celebrities.

Ozzy has a new album coming out, and to promote it he headed to Madame Tussaud’s in New York to scare his fans. And he does a good job of pretending to be made of wax before coming to life.

Some of the people he scares cope better than others. I think I’d have run a mile.
