Merida, the heroine from ‘Brave,’ was officially proclaimed the 11th Disney Princess. But instead of celebrating, people got angry.

Why watch ‘The Great Gatsby’ when you could watch ‘The Great Catsby’??? Â We had that same thought, bu Guyism went one step farther and created this mashup using the trailer’s audio and clips from ‘The Aristocats’ to make ‘The Great Catsby.’ At least, we’re pretty sure it’s a mashup.

The 10 Worst Moms in Pop Culture

Donald Deane — Thu, 09 May 2013 20:27:09 +0000

If movies and TV have taught us anything, it's that all mothers are NOT created equal. While some fictional moms might be willing to play the doting matriarch, others engage in twisted mind games, dole out severe corporal punishment and even commit murder most foul. Think about that the next time you forget to call your mom on Mother's Day.

Emerald Catron — Thu, 02 May 2013 17:02:43 +0000

To be honest, we haven't watched 'The Matrix' in probably 13 years, so we'd just like to thank this guy's mom for the refresher! Although we're pretty sure the dude's name is Morpheus, not Moshimo. Regardless, we're pretty sure this is a fairly accurate plot synopsis, and the accompanying animation keeps us from nodding off like we usually do when somebody tells us what a movie is about.

Jackie Mancini — Wed, 01 May 2013 15:00:07 +0000

One of these people is Dan Aykroyd. 1992 was a weird time, guys. I’m glad we all got out okay. When I was a kid, there were several years in which I thought I had imagined this movie. This is partially because the first dozen or so times that I caught glimpses of it were [...]
