‘Mad Max’ Chase Re-Created With GoKarts (Video)

The Movie God   |  @   |  

Mad Max: Fury Road

In on of this week’s videos gone viral, a bunch of people re-created a Mad Max chase sequence using GoKarts, a truck, a paintball gun, and some sort of mini clown car version of Max’s Interceptor, and they do it quite awesomely.

The short looks to be heavily inspired by George Miller’s recent hit Mad Max: Fury Road, and it clearly is, but in fact the video was actually sponsored by Warner Brothers Games in anticipation of the release of the upcoming Mad Max video game that’s set to be released on September 1st.

You can see the short along with a behind the scenes video below.

Batkid Begins: The Wish Heard Around the World

Batkid Begins: The Wish Heard Around the World
Directed by Dana Nachman
Written by Dana Nachman and Kurt Kuenne
Starring: Miles Scott, Natalie and Nick Scott, Eric Johnston, and Mike Jutan
Running Time: 87 Minutes
KTF Films
Release Date: June 26, 2015

A few years ago, in mid-November, you may have found yourself locked into your favorite social media to witness a little wish come true as Make a Wish gave little Miles Scott his wish to be Batman for one day. They transformed parts of San Francisco into Gotham, and what started as a small project turned into something much, much bigger than anyone had expected.

A few years later, thanks to Dana Nachman (Human Experiment) and Kurt Kuenne, we get a look into how that idea turned into something that affected everyone who saw or heard about it in the documentary Batkid Begins: The Wish Heard Around the World. I can say just thinking about seeing him the first time, the emotions begin to flow and the goosebumps and the teary eyes are soon to follow, which is sort of ironic considering the same could be said for another movie that Kurt Kuenne was involved with, Dear Zachary, a movie that will tug and pull at your emotions as well.

So, Are You Worthy of Wielding Thor’s Hammer? (Video)

Thor: The Dark World starring Chris Hemsworth

A group of enthusiastic pranksters going by the name of Trollstation out of the UK decided to find out just who thinks they are worthy of the power of the Mighty Thor. Just in time for this week’s U.S. release of Avengers: Age of Ultron (the film has been out a week in the UK), the prank basically entailed someone using some heavy duty adhesive to glue a replica of Mjolnir, the famed weapon of Thor, to some concrete in a public square. Passersby then tried to determine their worthiness by attempting to lift the “magic” hammer.

The concept is based on the famous inscription from the Marvel comics stating “Whosoever holds this hammer, if he be worthy, shall possess the power of Thor.” Of course the hammer now mentions that if he OR she be worthy, and in the video, plenty of women gave the challenge a try themselves.

From the looks of it, we puny mortals should probably just leave the heavy lifting to the Asgardians. That and apparently wearing a jacket seems to have an effect on our worthiness. Check out the video here below.

Director Scott Derrickson, who was tapped back in June to direct Marvel’s 2016 film, is giving us a tease by way of some fan art.

Check it out here below.

Derrickson, who directed this year’s Deliver Us from Evil, posted the “Cumberbatch as Strange” image to his Twitter account yesterday with Talking Heads lyrics “Strange but not a stranger,” sending fans into a fury of speculation as to whether this was an official look.
