‘Man of Tai Chi’ Trailer: Oh, Keanu Reeves Directed A Fighting Movie
Author: Stacey Cook
If you will, imagine for a moment that in the early ’90s, when even Shaq got a 2D fighting game, Keanu Reeves was made the final boss of a Mortal Kombat rip-off. And imagine it somehow got so popular that, twenty years later, Reeves himself would direct and star in an adaptation of this video game–which we’ll assume has at this point has spawned several KeanFu sequels. Well, you’re not going to believe this, but it turns out that is all reality. It’s the only explanation for this.

Acetrax movie service to close, lights go dim on June 21st
Author: Randy Miller
It’s just as likely that you’ll know Acetrax from the video services it’s behind, as from its own branded offerings. Regardless of how you might use the service, its owner Sky is pulling the plug on June 21st. Impact to pay-per-view customers should mean nothing more than looking elsewhere, but those who bought titles outright will need to download them before the cutoff (there are a bunch of caveats though). The same goes for account credit — either use it, or face the hassle of claiming it back after the fact. There’s an FAQ on the website outlining the best course of action depending on your situation, so we’d suggest you head there first before working your way through your rental library.

Extreme closeup! IBM makes ‘world’s smallest movie’ using atoms (video)
Author: Ian Simpson
After taking a few shadowy pictures for the scientific world’s paparazzi, the atom is now ready for its closeup. Today, a team of IBM scientists are bypassing the big screen to unveil what they call the “world’s smallest movie.” This atomic motion picture was created with the help of a two-ton IBM-made microscope that operates at a bone-chilling negative 268 degrees Celsius. This hardware was used to control a probe that pulled and arranged atoms for stop-motion shots used in the 242-frame film. A playful spin on microcomputing, the short was made by the same team of IBM eggheads who recently developed the world’s smallest magnetic bit. Now that the atom’s gone Hollywood, what’s next, a molecular entourage?

Thumbs And Ammo Takes The Guns Out Of Movie Scenes
Author: JohnnyBells
Thumbs And Ammo is a blog with a bunch of user submitted movie stills/posters with the weapons removed from the characters’ hands, and thumbs-up poses instead. It just goes to show, you don’t need to be waving a gun around to look like a badass, you just need to know how to pose. One hand on your hip, in general, is not the way to go.
Hit the jump for a ton more, but check out the blog for so many I lost count (so over 30).

Ultra Impressive First-Person Shooter/Action Movie
Author: Randy Miller
Note: Video is visuals blood-wise and song does have unclean words, so make certain to call everyone in your office over and see at full volume.
This is a movie short/music video directed by Ilya Naishuller for the Biting Elbows tune ‘Bad Motherf \*\*\* er’. It’s the second point-of-view video in a collection (first one HERE) that has to do with like some sort of teleportation device and beating up evil Ruskies and being an all around badass. Dude advises me a great deal of myself. Dude reminds me absolutely nothing of myself. If computer games appeared like this I would not be sitting right here writing Geekologie today, I’ll tell you that. Hell, computer game do not look anything like this yet and I still have God of Battle on time out today.
Hit the jump for the video (Vimeo and Youtube) and pretend YOU ARE THAT MAN.

Movie studios sign on for satellite-based digital delivery to theaters
Author: Mark Jeffries
We doubt we’ll see any reduction in ticket prices, but the process of bringing new movies to theaters could get easier very soon as five major studios have signed on with the Digital Cinema Distribution Coalition (DCDC) to use its satellite distribution network. Lionsgate, Universal, Disney, Warner and Paramount are all on board with the scheme, which says it will provide participants access to “a host of delivery options” as digital projection becomes increasingly common. The Hollywood Reporter quotes spokesman Randolph Blotky saying the network is expected to reach 300 locations when it launches this summer, all of which will be equipped with an appliance from video distributor KenCast. The satellite end of things is being handled by EchoStar/Deluxe, and once it’s rolled out should make things much easier than the current system of shipping hard drives back and forth. Of course, what we’re not hearing so far is if/how this upgrade will reach smaller, older theaters that are facing pricey upgrades from film-based equipment, but with theater chains like AMC, Regal and Cinemark forming the DCDC along with Universal and Warner, those considerations are probably a little further down the list.

Canon sensor records video in very low light, sees movie stars of a different sort
Author:
Although there’s undoubtedly been improvements to low light videography, it’s still challenging or impossible for a lot of cameras to tape in near-total darkness. Canon has the solution with a video-only, 35mm CMOS sensor that could keep tape-recording even when there’s basically no visible light at all. The prototype’s pixels have to do with 7.5 times larger than in already light-sensitive DSLRs like the EOS-1D X, letting it get focus with as little as 0.03 lux of lighting. The result is even more than simply the best camera for a scary flick– the sensor could catch the Geminid meteor shower and other huge phenomena without special methods. Canon hasn’t stated when it may deliver a camcorder toting the new imaging technology, however it’s planning to show the sensor at a safety expo today; we could well see the sensor in the industry, even if many of its work happens past the general public eye.

Xbox 360 gets its first exclusive movie release, ‘Pulp’
Author: Jon Mitchell
The British indie comedy Pulp is today debuting exclusively on Xbox Live. The release marks the first time a feature-length movie has ever been released exclusively for the platform, but Microsoft tells BBC News it plans to distribute more films this way in the future.
Pulp centers on a comic book writer who’s unwillingly forced to help the police take down a money-laundering drug cartel. It was was well-received on the film festival circuit last year, but apparently the cost of a traditional theatrical release was too big a gamble for UK distributors to take on a movie with no “bankable stars.” You can get a feel for what Pulp offers by watching an extremely foul-mouthed scene over on YouTube, and if you’re convinced, you can buy it in…
