With Planet Terror finally hitting other parts of the world soon, Tarantino himself is judging some of the fake trailers that will be show with the films. In the Netherlands, here are some of the nominees that QT will be judging. Not exactly sure how the whole thing works since the web site is not in English, but somehow votes are taken into considerations as well.

     So anyway, you can head over to http://www.planetterror.nl/faketrailer/ and take a look at all the nominees. Just click on the thumbnail image to see the streaming video, or hit the button to tally a vote for any video you choose.

     Most of them are pretty stupid. Nailed By Nikita seems to be getting the highest praise so far and it looks to be pretty heavily inspired by Hobo with a Shotgun - the fake trailer only showed to Canadian audiences.

     Head over to that foreign site to see them all, but here’s one I had to vote for for obvious reasons entitled Bloody Andrew:

     Here’s a site I used to travel to way back in the day (at least 10 years ago). It’s been around forever and is a cool site. I completely forgot about it until I remembered it in a dream I had last night…

MovieQuote.net

     There are nine genres. Within each genre are ten movie quotes. Guess the quote correctly and you get to put in your own quote. Each quote has commentary and hints built in. It’s a fun time waster. Check it out.

     As big of a SW fan as I am (bigger than anyone I know personally); I know that I am but a padawan compared to some of the crazy-ass fans out there that know everything, and I mean EVERYTHING about Star Wars. On casual Fridays at the office they dress up like Boba-Fett; and they know exactly how many square feet of titanium it takes to plate a Class II Star Destroyer.

     If this describes you, The Weinstein Company is running a contest for the “ultimate Star Wars fanboy” to coincide with the release of their film, “Fanboys”. Which is an adventure/comedy about a bunch of over the top Star Wars junkies trying to see an early screening of Star Wars: Episode 1 back in 1999 - starring Seth Rogan, Sam Huntington and Kristen Bell.

     To enter, all you have to do is uplaod a short video explaining or showing why you are the ultimate SW fan at fanboycontest.com. Dailymotion users will be voting for their favorites throughout the competition; and the producers will choose the winner from the 10 finalists that received the most votes by the users. The winner gets a walk on cameo within the film, plus their uploaded video will appear on the extras portion of the DVD release.

     To read more about this event, click on the contest link above, or check out the source at movieweb.

     From time to time I end up with movie swag. Currently I’m in the possesion of new poster for 30 Days of Night. My wife doesn’t really want it up on the wall so I figured I’d give it away as part of a contest.

     All you have to do to enter is leave a comment here that says what your most hated vampire movie is and why?

I’ll be picking the winner randomly on July 6th.

     You can also enter this contest over at FilmGrotto. There is a different question there. And, yes you can enter twice… once at each site.

Update: I’ve sent a message out to Jonathan letting him know that he was the one who was randomly drawn from all entrants. I’m interested to know though what caused so few people to enter. Do you think the movie is going to be terrible? Is the poster terrible in your opinion? Or do you just not like movie posters?
