blast-o-rama.

Hard to believe it’s been three long years since Grindhouse hit theaters, and as Machete shined this weekend, another fake trailer is looking to become real as a homeless man hits the streets with a vengeance in…

Hobo With A Shotgun

Originally the winner of a Canadian contest to create a fake Grindhouse-style trailer, Hobo With A Shotgun is now a full, feature length film, and they even have Rutger Hauer as the titular hobo!

Be warned, the trailer is VERY NSFW, but goddamn, that looks like a great time in the theaters.

No set release date at this time, but MAN does this look like a blast!

There’s few things sadder for movie obsessive’s like myself than when a promising looking project is shelved.

Unfortunately, that was the fate for Pixar’s next big original project, Newt.

Originally set for a summer 2012 release, Newt was to be the tale of the last two blue-footed newt’s in existance, destined to mate…who disliked each other, immensely.

Set in the mix of a busy schedule for Pixar which includes Cars 2, Brave and Monsters Inc. 2, Newt ended up drawing the short straw, and was shelved earlier this year.

Not all is lost, however, as Disney decided to release a large amount of production artwork this weekend on Facebook for fans to see and dream about what could’ve been.

Who knows, maybe this will rekindle interest in the film.  The designs look unique enough to me, and after the 1-2 punch of Up and Wall-E, I would love to see more original Pixar films, less sequels, but I guess that’s the way the cookie crumbled.
