Sweded: Forrest Gump in One Minute
Using the filming technique from Michel Gondry’s film Be Kind Rewind, Forrest Gump gets Sweded – one minute, one take. It’s better than the original which happens to fall into my “dog’s breakfast” category of films.

There are some movies where car power outshines the pitiful human element. In some instances the vehicle was a vital component to cover up the head-up-ass acting (yes you, Vin Diesel in The Fast and Furious).
Unreality breaks down 10 films where the actors were completely overshadowed by the autos they drove. Vroom vroom.
World Builder is a 9-minute animated short made by Bruce Banit and tells the story of a man who uses holographic tools to build a world for the woman he loves. The special effects are fantastic, and so they should – it took a single day to shoot the film, but it spent 2 years in post production!

And top dog of the night belonged to Danny Boyle’s Slumdog Millionaire which scooped a noteworthy 8 Oscars. The rags-to-riches success story about an orphan who appears on India’s version of Who Wants to be a Millionaire won best film, best director, best cinematography, best film editing, best song, best sound editing, best original score, and best adapted screenplay. In distance second place was The Curious Case of Benjamin Button with prizes for best art direction, best makeup, and best visual effect.
And after his stern letter to the Academy, God would have been slightly happier to find out his man Health Ledger won best supporting actor for his role in The Dark Knight.

With the new Transformers movie due out soon (click HERE to see the trailer if you missed it), we see a newcomer to the franchise in the form of a stylish Corvette Stingray concept vehicle. It’ll be playing the part of transforming Autobot Sideswipe. It’s not the Megan Fox of motor vehicles, but is tasty nonetheless ;)
More images after the jump, and a sneak-peak of the Autobot running footage.
