Oh I don’t know what to think about this it might be too geeky for me but the concept I have to admit is pretty awesome. I wish I had thought of something so clever as this. Though these guys obviously blog for bleeding cool! Three yuppie friends moved to New York and put together a cool reenactment tour through New York City based off scenes from the first Ghostbusters film. These guys shot this all in one day apparently on May 1, 2012 between 10:30 am and 5 pm. I like it.

Have you seen The Hunger Games yet or do you plan on seeing it this weekend? I do I bought my ticket but I want to hear what you thought about the film how it compares to the trilogy by Suzanne Collins (if you have read them) and tell me are you excited for the sequel? After the hype of this first film this is guaranteed to hit Harry Potter and Twilight Sega status. The Hollywood Reporter says: “it’s on track to make $140 to $150 million dollars this weekend, which would make it one of the 10 biggest movie openings ever.” Wow that’s incredible this is really going to shoot these stars into the sky. Lucky them that they got partake in such an amazing film that the whole family can watch. Though this film has gotten some criticism due to the fact that it has similar traits to the Japanese cult film Battle Royal. I can assure you from what I know about both films plus being a huge fan of BR these two story-lines are on different spectrum’s going into two different directions. The Hunger Games is in theaters now staring Elizabeth Banks, Woody Harrelson, Stanley Tucci, Donald Sutherland and Toby Jones. Buy your tickets for The Hunger Games Now!
