| ‘The Last Of The Mohicans’ Acoustic Cover Might Just Blow Your Mind
Here we have yet another incredible acoustic cover of a hit movie’s recognizable score. This time it’s one of my personal favorites, from the 1992 Michael Mann historical epic, The Last of the Mohicans. Be sure to check out the acoustic cover of the Back to the Future theme and the bass guitar cover of the Braveheart theme if you’ve not yet heard them. The track is titled “Promentory,” from composer Trevor Jones and based on Dougie Maclean’s “The Gael.” The cover is done on acoustic guitar, with two additional guitars (three guitars in total: a standard, a baritone, and a seven-string) and a violin bow used to enhance the cover. You kind of have to see it to believe it. You can do just that below.

| Morgan Freeman’s ‘Se7en’ Unboxing Video
Anyone who has spent some time watching videos on YouTube has more than likely come across one or two unboxing videos. For those who aren’t familiar, the videos basically just show someone opening up a package containing some exciting new product, such as the next big video game console or Apple product, for example, so that others can see how the product looks before they get their own hands on one. Taking this basic idea, YouTube channel NonRandomNonSense has created a brilliant—albeit very dark—parody of the everyday unboxing video. In their version, it’s Morgan Freeman doing the unboxing as his character in the movie Se7en. If you’ve seen the movie, you have a pretty good idea of where this is going and can watch the video below…and if you’ve not seen the movie, stop reading this now and go watch it.

| ‘Who Framed Roger Rabbit’ With and Without Animation (Video)
If you’ve never seen a behind the scenes making of video for Robert Zemeckis‘s 1988 live-action/animated hybrid classic Who Framed Roger Rabbit then the video below is a real treat. The video shows star Bob Hoskins filming scenes for his character’s visit to Toontown, with a comparison look at the scenes in the finished movie. Now…this may comes as a bit of a shock to some of you, but none of the animated characters were actually physically there with Hoskins when the scenes were filmed. Nothing will ever be the same, I know. It’s truly fascinating to see Hoskins work with nothing but a blue screen, a couple of focal points when necessary, and a little assistance here and there, and seeing it gives you a brand new appreciation for his performance. Click on over to the other side to check out the video.

You may know that Ron Perlman was a beast long before he donned the horns and red skin of Hellboy, and that Linda Hamilton was certainly a beauty before she became the iconic Sarah Connor in the Terminator films, but did you know that one of the people at the reins of their rise to fame in the Beauty and the Beast TV series on CBS was George R.R. Martin? That’s right — before penning the slaughter of entire families in his A Song of Ice and Fire books, which were adapted into HBO’s Game of Thrones, Martin was juggling a delicate love story during an era where violence on television was limited to fake bullet wounds and energetic shoving matches.
