Here are twelve unforgettable twinkle toes scenes… Its only topped in cold shivers for the uncomfortable jazz club dance that follows. It was all kinds of unforgettable wrong. Theres alsothatsolo dance number, but thats between Mr and Mrs Tasker. Carrell and his dance partner, Lindsay Hollister, should be proud. Whatever Happened To Harold Smith? His unique funky moves also made the credits worth sticking around for. Its a strangely hypnotic, brave demonstration of skills from a character you could easily pity....

I especially like the painted backdrops in this production. This was so successful it spawned a series ofAlice Comediesin the twenties. This is also on YouTube if you fancy a gander. I suspect if this had been made in colour, this would have been the oneAlicefilm wed all recall. With typically Gallic imagination, most of the fantasy characters are played by puppets. Its now considered to be much better than it was received at the time....

Weve pointed out that, in only five years time,Alices Adventures In Wonderlandwill be 150 years old. Some modern-day explanations are purely speculation, but with firm enough foundations to be believable. Others, such as the Gryphon, Bandersnatch and Jabberwock, are fictional creatures. But what of other Wonderlanders? The March Hare If anyone can match The Hatter for odd behaviour, its The March Hare. The Cheshire Cat Well! Ive often seen a cat without a grin, thought Alice, but a grin without a cat!...

The first and second rules of Fight Club state that you could’t talk about it. It wasnt really until the following year when the DVD was released thatFight Clubbegan to build its following. Ad content continues below In the ten years since its DVD release,Fight Clubhas grown in stature. In fact, Tylers plan is flawed not only in its outcome but in its very conception. Project: Mayhems forced recession might work in bringing down the banks and corporations that we despise so much....

Rob checks out The Incredible Hulk, which collects together all 13 episodes of the 1982 animated series… Admittedly there is a story to each one, and actually some pretty good ones at that. That really is about all comic purists will get from the show. Thats not to say the stories or the actual cartoon are bad. Admittedly, the change sequences are repeated time and again, but theyre still fun....

Hollywood types, eh? A big, old-fashioned farce,Deathfollows its predecessors plot note for note. What unravels is a massive comedy of errors, the biggest of which is a total lack of comedy. This is an hour-and-a-half of cringe-inducing gags, gaffs and guff. Did I mention it had Martin Lawrence in? Talk about the final nail. Death.has several intertwining plot strands at play, all of which twist, turn and tie themselves into knots....

Where it slightly fails is in harnessing the frenetic action sequences into solid story telling. The Disney version is light, bright and mixes magic, humour and adventure in equally large helpings. Not bad for a bear of very little brain… It features the pre-investigative Angela Lansbury and quintessential Brit David Tomlinson. I often wonder if Angela still has that bedknob somewhere? It doesnt have the technical wonder of earlier movies, but its jolly entertaining all the same....

Is horror anthology Phobia scarier than the sum of its parts? Simon Petersen finds out… Horror anthologies are a decidedly risky proposition for moviegoers. Because they feature the works of different directors, the style and quality often varies wildly. And yet, the success or failure of a film depends on the sum of all its parts. Thats a problem forPhobia(aka4Bia), a collection of four short horror films from Thailand. It begins, not with a bang, but a whimper....

What happened next, for the franchise and for the person concerned? Megan Fox Transformers 3 Who? Fresh from her regal performance inPrince Of Persia, Gemma Arterton is currently in the running for her replacement. Theres actually some dispute over whether Glover was dropped from the franchise or if he merely lost interest. She reprised the role for 2009sNew Moon, but has been replaced by Bryce Dallas Howard for the forthcomingEclipse....

Well, thats just the Silurians bag, really. Created by Malcolm Hulke, theyre scientifically advanced creatures from before humanity evolved. This makes a different kind of trouble for the Doctor too. So, for newcomers, heres a quick recap of the Silurians appearances inDoctor Who. The Siluriansintroduced the species with a group whod been woken up by energy from a nuclear research centre. When any humans go down into their caves, theyre attacked by the Silurians pet dinosaur....

Mario Kart meets a bit of user-created content in Sony’s latest PlayStation 3 hope, ModNation Racers… On top of this, though, Sony has layered something quite special. Ad content continues below When you fire upModNation Racersyoull be greeted by one of the games many charming cut-scenes. The first place most players will gravitate to will no doubt be the creation tools. Its here whereModNation Racersis at its very best. The range of tools the game gives you is impressive....

With her brother apparently a gonner, the sister flees to the nearest house, finding it empty. At least, so it seems at first. Their only advice is to destroy the brain, which has proven to deactivate the creatures. The sound is also quite muffled and it can be difficult to distinguish whats being said at times. As for the disc itself, well, there are no extras, just the bog standard film....

That, at the time of this article going live, is tomorrow. Tomorrow, one of the finest science fiction blockbusters of all time is going to be 30. But what happened to those who worked on it, in front of and behind the camera? Hes also just signed up to direct the movie of hisBlack Pearlcomic book. Unsurprisingly, Fords CV isnt without its low points. The fourthIndianaJonesmovieKingdomOf The Crystal Skullmay have failed to convince audience members, but who knows?...
