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

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

Superman<\/em><\/strong> movies used to be pretty low on death, especially as caused by the hero himself. Until Man of Steel<\/em><\/strong>, of course. Watch the numbers rise fast as Mr. Sunday Movies counts up the Superman movie kill count:<\/p>\n

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

We all know that Neo is “the one” in The Matrix<\/strong> <\/em>movies. What this video supposes is, maybe he isn’t? Guess who is. Or just watch.<\/p>\n

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

We’re less than three years away from the release of Avengers: Infinity War – Part 1<\/em><\/strong>, so here’s a fan-made poster for the set (via Geek Tyrant<\/a>):<\/p>\n<\/p>\n

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

When you mash together all the shootouts in Westerns, the genre definitely looks like it’s the same movie every time (via Cinematic Montage Creators<\/a>):<\/p>\n

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

Clearly inspired by the documentary Los Angeles Plays Itself<\/em><\/strong>, Every Frame a Painting pays tribute to the third-largest movie production city in North America with “Vancouver Never Plays Itself”:<\/p>\n

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

Carrie Fisher<\/strong> poses with the stars of Postcards From the Edge<\/em><\/strong>, which she scripted based on her memoir. In the movie, which opened 25 years ago today, Meryl Streep<\/strong> plays a fictionalized version of the Star Wars<\/em> star and Shirley MacLaine<\/strong> plays her a version of her mother, Debbie Reynolds<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

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

British Cinema is not studied or celebrated enough, but this retrospective montage does a pretty good job of doing the latter in just five minutes (via Cinematic Montage Creators<\/a>):<\/p>\n

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

This Groot<\/strong> is pretty amazing, and the rest of his friends’ Guardians of the Galaxy<\/em><\/strong> cosplay isn’t so bad either. See Star-Lord<\/strong> and Gamora<\/strong> by Sunji Cosplay at KamiKame<\/a>. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

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

Emily Axford’s latest NFSW satire<\/strong><\/u> of filmmakers for College Humor imagines what it’s like to sleep with the Coen Brothers<\/strong> by equating their movies with sex acts:<\/p>\n

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

This week marks the 20th anniversary of the Toronto International Film Festival premeire of Mike Figgis<\/strong>‘s Leaving Las Vegas<\/em><\/strong>, which would go onto cement Nicolas Cage<\/strong> as an honorable thespian, Oscars-wise. Watch the original trailer below.<\/p>\n
