By Christopher Campbell

Here are a bunch of little bites to satisfy your hunger for movie culture:

Star Wars of the Day:

It’s no wonder the original Star Wars received a special Oscar for its sound effects. It’s surprising that more of the movies weren’t nominated for Best Sound Editing, though. Here’s a great supercut of the sounds of Star Wars (via Live for Films):

Movie Mashup of the Day:

In case The Avengers ever have to bust some ghosts, Tony Stark is prepared with this new Iron Man armor (via Geek Tyrant):

Concert Tour Trailer of the Day:

If you love movie scores, especially the billion of them by Hans Zimmer, you probably don’t need this trailer to make you want to see Zimmer in concert, but it’s still pretty cool (via Geek Tyrant):

More people should cosplay as (good) movie poster art, a la this guy going as the iconic imagery for John Carpenter‘s The Thing (via Live for Films):

Supercut of the Day:
