Here are a bunch of little bites to satisfy your hunger for movie culture:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Movie Mash-Up of the Day:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Jesse Eisenberg<\/strong> was obviously cast as Lex Luthor<\/strong> because of his Mark Zuckerberg<\/strong> portrayal, so this mash-up of Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice<\/em><\/strong> and The Social Network<\/em><\/strong> is obvious but necessary:<\/p>\n

Star Wars <\/em>of the Day:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Everyone knows the Star Wars<\/em><\/strong> movies are heavily influenced by Westerns, but that doesn’t mean we can’t appreciate this literal Star Wars<\/em> take on the Western classic The Good, the Bad and the Ugly<\/em><\/strong>:<\/p>\n

Supercut of the Day:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

You’ve seen plenty of car chase supercuts, but this one is edited by Casper Christensen and as awesome as they come:<\/p>\n

Movie Remix of the Day:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Mad Max: Fury Road<\/em><\/strong> has a bunch of pull-ins, push-outs and fast-motion shots. Editor Jorge Luengo has isolated all of them:<\/p>\n

PSA of the Day:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Kevin Bacon<\/strong> is here to promote Cop Car<\/em><\/strong> and tell you to keep quiet and don’t text during the movie for Alamo Drafthouse<\/strong> locations:<\/p>\n

Alternate Movie Poster of the Day:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Paramount has released new minimalist poster designs for all five of the Mission: Impossible<\/em><\/strong> movies, ahead of the release of Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation<\/em><\/strong>. Each one focuses on the installments’ biggest stunts. Below you can see Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol<\/em><\/strong>, and you can find the other four at Screen Crush<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Fake Movie of the Day:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

More auteurs need to direct superhero movies. Here’s an idea of what a John Cassavetes<\/strong>-helmed Wonder Woman<\/em><\/strong> might have looked like (via Live for Films<\/a>):<\/p>\n

Filmmaker in Focus:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Can anyone make David Lynch<\/strong>‘s work weirder than it already is? Editor Jacob T. Swinney seems to be trying with his montage isolating only pieces of ambience from Lynch’s films:<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

Film in Focus:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Now let’s focus on Michael Mann<\/strong>, specifically his 1981 movie Thief<\/em><\/strong>, and only in close-ups, care of editor Roman Holliday:<\/p>\n

Classic Trailer of the Day:<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

This Sunday is the 60th anniversary of the premiere of Charles<\/strong> Laughton<\/strong>‘s The Night of the Hunter<\/em><\/strong>, one of the greatest American films of all time. Watch its original trailer below.<\/p>\n
