But does anyone else find it a tad too absurd that technology in the world of Avatar can build a hybrid species from a cocktail of DNA but still can't fuse a sub-millimeter fracture in a spinal cord? I know, I know. The construct is no more absurd than a killer robot that can only travel through time naked. [CrunchGear]

UPDATE: Apparently this trailer is playing in other non-US locations, not just Japan.

I should celebrate this image, an army of Lloyd Doblers assembling in the name of hope, love and universal rejection of general societal pressure. But I can't help but wonder what Dobler himself would say to hawking copies of Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment's release of Say Anything... 20th Anniversary Edition in this viral promotion that occurred in NY earlier this week.

"I don't want to sell anything, buy anything, or process anything as a career. I don't want to sell anything bought or processed, or buy anything sold or processed, or process anything sold, bought, or processed, or repair anything sold, bought, or processed. You know, as a career, I don't want to do that."

I guess that, sooner or later, we all sell out a bit. It's OK, Lloyd Dobler impersonators. It's OK. We still really like that song.

I didn't know this, because I live in a bubble, but Michael Jackson was only 8 days away from doing final rehearsals for a 50 show tour, the first in a decade, when he died. This movie, "This is It" is a cool documentary behind the scenes of the prep ahead of that tour. Since it never happened, it's all we have left of the performer. MJ has always been experimental. This documentary isn't the greatest but it's quite moving to watch the production occur in rough with rough and often amazing performances by the late star. And yes, there was enough tech to keep the Gizmodo sector of my brain engaged.

There were some big pyrotechnics, but I'm not sure they were bigger than the ones that burn down theaters or those used at hair rock band shows that play in football stadiums. There was a cherrypicker that seemed pretty nice, but no big. Same for the toaster-like human poppers that sent people flying into the air like some weird contraption you'd find in a Mario Brothers game in an alternate reality. There was even a display wrapped robot that Michael would emerge from and some light-laced costumes for when Michael sung Billy Jean. All ok, and interesting but my favorite was seeing the refilmed videos, which were to be played in the background while they were being sung. Thriller was redone in a faux cemetery and in 3D (like Captain EO). And Smooth Criminal green screened Michael into an old mobster flick. The Way You Make Me Feel didn't have a filmed segment but a sunset gotham-like skyline as seen through a lattice of iron girders with workers snapping slowly to tempo and climbing down when the song begins. The entire difference between the live and the recorded numbers are that Michael would improvise ever so slightly on catchphrases, and play with the melody, teasing out the pieces by not giving us the exact songs we remember, which at the same time would keep them fresh. He also goes through some old Jackson 5 songs, and it cannot be overstated that the musical numbers are all lifted from live rehearsal, so really fresh. You see Michael Jackson calling the shots on music composition, sets, dances, performance and as he relates to his coworkers the same as any boss, you are reminded of his talent, and in reflection, of our loss that came with his early death. Especially when he dances.

What I'm trying to say is that when you take away the pop and the celebrity scandal, what you're left with is a weird genius. Sort of a geek.

Anyhow, Thriller was my first album, so I enjoyed this movie. Maybe you will, too.

Confirmed exclusively for the UK at the moment, the packages include an Xbox Elite, an extra controller and the related movie on USB (not DVD). You may also score some extra Microsoft points.

The offer is strange, not just because of the Hollywood branding or the lack of optical media. The offer is strange because Microsoft isn't promoting the free download of either movie through Xbox Live. USB sticks? Really? [MCV and VideoGamer via Kotaku]

It wasn't a news item. It was something that somebody made up. It's totally, totally ignorant and stupid, and even the people who picked it up and spread it along, said there's no way this can be true. And of course there's no way it can be true. You shouldn't believe what you read on the internet. Take everything with a big grain of salt.

That's what Lucasfilm's Head of Fan Relations Steve Sansweet says about those rumors. The only 3D Star Wars movies you will see are the classic trilogy and those three shameful accidents also known as the "prequels."

Or maybe Steve here is just trying a Jedi mind trick on us. Here's hoping he is not lying. [Movie Geek Squad via io9]

Brian: Oh, I think it's postable late at night.
Me: Hahaha, you think that's for posting, you fool.
Brian: They always had gadgets, home made.
Me: That's a streeeeeeeetch. But I'm not going to say no.
Brian: I pity the fool who thinks that's not a post.
Sean: Jessica Biel is in that shit too.
Brian: Yeah, just go with it. It'll feel great.
Me: They better make it good.
Brian: They won't. They will ruin our memories. If T drinks poisoned milk, it will be all good.
Me: Our memories of cheesy TV, yes. We can only hope Mr. T gets a cameo.
Wilson: Yeah, they're second only to MacGyver in postable cheesy 80s TV shows.
Adam: How can anyone play Mr. T? I don't understand.
Me: Me neither.
Adam: Seems like an impossible challenge.
Me: That requires serious acting.
Brian: Yeah, BA Baracus wasn't even a character. He was Mr. T.
Me: I don't think DeNiro would be able to pull that off, much less this dude.

That, dear readers of Gizmodo, is how we spend our afternoons. While we drink cocktails. On the beach. Mixed and served by ninja cyborgs.

A-Team, the movie based on Stephen J. Cannell's famed TV series, is being directed by Joe Carnahan. Liam Neeson will be Hannibal (great choice, although George Peppard will be hard to beat), Sharlto Copley as Murdock, Quinton Rampage Jackson as B.A. Baracus, and Bradley Cooper as Face. Let's hope this remake is as good as the new Star Trek.

The free online app allows you to select between a slew of page layouts, then drag and drop your favorite (mini) Marvel heroes into each panel. Of course can also add text, sound effects objects—whatever you need to flesh out that 4-part series you've always wanted to see in which a prepubescent Wolverine struggles to uncover the roots of his inexplicably persistent five o'clock shadow.

But the best part is that the whole system is vector based, meaning that you can enlarge any element (like characters) as much as you'd like before exporting your comic to a fairly high rez PDF (that's free from watermarks or any other stuff that could sour the experience).

Though, I must admit, I fear to see what your minds come up with in the comments. Please keep in mind that none of these superheroes are of age. [Marvel via GeekDad]

From the Eck-man himself:

These are some teasers of my new watch collection. The range is inspired by Star Wars. A mixture of metals, rubbers and nylons. My amazing partners at Timex- completely rocked these. Yes...they feature "indiglo"...sounds...and other technologies. From Boba to R2...Stormtroopers to Vader...

There's no pricing information at the moment, but the Timex/Ecko mashups will be around this holiday season. You know, so you can buy them and stuff. [Ecko via aBlogtoRead via OhGizmo!]

"Filming the bouncing toad was very challenging; the remote mountain plateau is one mile high and 26 square miles in area, whilst the toad is one inch long and very elusive. The tarantulas which prey on them are also very hard to find. To give the crew the best chance of finding and filming them, the expert on these creatures came on the shoot. He searched for a week before the crew's arrival to find both species and a location where they could come together and where the toad would demonstrate its bouncing-ball method of escape. This allowed the cameraman to set up his slow-motion camera in the right place. The scientist was able to ensure that the toad was never in danger of being harmed by the tarantula as a result of us filming them. The technique was a total success - the toad tucked its legs in, rolled and bounced, allowing the crew to film its method of escape in slow-motion detail."

"A Jesus Christ lizard running on water is so fast that a human would have to run at 65 miles per hour to achieve the same trick. The speed makes it an enormous challenge to film. After consulting with a scientist at Harvard University who has made a ground-breaking study of the lizard's water sprint, the crew decided that as well as filming the behaviour at normal frame rates they would attempt to capture the close up details of the lizard's run with a slow-motion camera filming at 2000 frames per second (i.e. slowed down by 80 times).

It's very hard to predict exactly where and when a lizard will run, what's more it's all so quick that once the lizard is spotted it's gone in a blur! Learning from the scientist's observation methods was essential and as a result it was decided to film the details of the sprint would need some degree of control to ensure that the crew had some idea of where and when the lizard would run. They travelled to Belize, home of the lizard, to work with local animal experts who had some lizards in natural forest enclosures. If, and when, these lizards decided to run, they always ran along the same stretch of water, where the cameraman could station his camera.

The key to success was using the latest digital slow-motion camera that continuously records into a memory buffer, so that when the cameraman hits the trigger button he downloads the action that took place a second or so before that moment. Whenever a lizard sprinted past the cameraman over the water the cameraman hit the trigger, desperately trying to keep the lizard in the frame and in focus. The final end result of this was stunning, slow motion shots of the lizards, with every drop of water visible as they sprinted through the surface."

OK, we don't actually have any notes on how this was shot. But the macro shot of water beading up on the gecko's hydrophobic skin is gorgeous.

The above clips are from Episode 2: Reptiles and Amphibians. The series is playing now on BBC One.

Hellboy, Buffy and a bunch of other Dark Horse IPs are now available in GelaSkin form (heck, there's even some Bettie Page thrown in there for good measure). iPhone skins go for $15 while 13 and 15-inch Macbook/general laptop skins cost $30.

You've likely seen the iconic art before, but that's alright. I could stare at Sarah Michelle Gellar's estranged cousin for days.

While that obnoxious gem comes at the 2 minute mark in the video below, the product placement begins even before that. Realizing the electrical conduit tunnel is too dark, the dimwitted "PC-like" investigator is handed the iPhone by his cool, like totally hip partner: "There's an app for that!" Yep, it's running a flashlight app. Ugh.

Meanwhile, back in reality, AT&T wants you to use MicroCell routers to fix its own reception flaws.

You may have heard by now that Apple no longer has claim to the name Mighty Mouse, since small-volume mouse maker Man & Machine, who had labeled its own pointer "Mighty Mouse," managed to wiggle its way through all the red tape to a successful trademark application. There's a lot of messiness involved, but the truth of the matter is a) it was dumb for Apple to borrow a name from a cartoon character in the first place, and b) the Mighty Mouse was one of Apple's worst products to date. In the end, I'm thinking there's a hint of karma in this reversal of fortune. Hopefully Apple's next mouse will be mightier in deed than in name. [Engadget]

Even though movie-poster regulars such as Owen Gleiberman and Peter Travers have labeled it "freaky and terrifying" and "a potent frightfest" respectively, studio execs seem skittish about releasing Paramount's Paranormal Activity. Instead of manning up and giving it a nationwide release, the studio has asked potential ticket buyers to declare their intentions here. I'm all for crowdsourcing experiments, but this just seems like studio cowardice at its most yeller. They call it "the first-ever major film release decided by you"—it sure won't be the last. [Movie Site]

iPhone owners love to crap all over AT&T customer service whenever they get near a JD Power & Associates survey, but apparently, for the 1.5 million who get TV programming from the T, service couldn't be sweeter. Good ole JD released the results, naming AT&T best in the west and south, Verizon tops in the east, and WOW! numero uno in the north central region. (No, World of Warcraft didn't start a cable company... or did it?) It might not startle you to learn that none of the cable and satellite carriers who actually provide TV service to the majority of the nation appear in the (positive) results. Just wait till you serve as many people with TV as you serve with cellphones, AT&T. Then let's see where you stand. [JD Power]

Danny Sullivan, king of the search engine watchers, pinned down Sergey Brin after a Google event and showed him some bad results. Like if you type "car rental," all the major agencies are there, but when you type "california car rental," many companies disappear (including my personal favorite, Hertz). He also asked why searching "search engines" brought up discussion of search engines, but "search engine" just brought up many older search sites—notably excluding Google itself. Brin said people probably don't search for Google on Google, but Sullivan disagreed. I was actually under the impression that if you go to Google and type "google," you break the internet, so in either case, I'm just glad to be enlightened. [Search Engine Land]

"123456" was the most popular password, appearing 64 times. Yes, that's but one digit away from this famous Spaceballs clip:

Other trends? The next top 20 most popular passwords were Spanish names, just under half the population used all lower case letters, and only six percent of the population used an alphanumeric combination.

Also, about 20% of the passwords were only six characters long...though the longest password was the awesome "lafaroleratropezoooooooooooooo". [The Inquirer]

My favorite guilty pleasure moments? The opening fight scene (the best one, imho) and a moment when the protagonist's head goes through a crane game.

Don't get me wrong, Turbo manages to cram all of Hollywood's cheesiest motifs into one 20-minute flick. But everything from the visual effects to the cinematography to the fight choreography look pretty freaking good for such a low budget action short. And hey, the plot is still better than any Mortal Kombat and/or Street Fighter movie yet produced.

And if you really dig it, Wonder Woman screenwriter Brent Strickland is shopping around a feature-length screenplay now. [Turbo]

According to a recent survey by In-Stat, only 43% of respondents who were interested in owning a 3D television to begin with (meaning, a fraction of the real population to begin with) were willing to spend <$200 extra on a 3D-compatible TV. Of the same group, only 33% would pay an extra <$50 for a 3D-compatible Blu-ray player.

But here's the kicker: 67% of those interested in 3D entertainment were willing to spend <$5 on 3D Blu-ray discs. In other words, consumers are willing to pay for a mostly artificial price premium rather than one fully explainable by technical merit. Rape our wallets at will, Hollywood.

Bay also welcomes back Megan Fox, knowing that he'll have a hard time finding someone with just the right balance of slutty sexiness to woo a crowd into believing that Shia is a hero.

Michael Bay should really think about using the Red Epic or Red One to shoot Megan Fox with next time. It worked well before. [Deadline]

With the over-tanned Access ET intro and all, I thought this may have been real for a half a second. Then I saw it was written and directed by Joe Swanberg, an indie-film maker known for his preoccupation with digital technology and non-simulated sex scenes. Oh, and it was on: [Funnyordie]

Starting today, four Vooks are available for $7 a pop. They're essentially part-book, part-video stories and instructional texts that can link you to social networking sites should you want to fanboy out to your awesome Vook.

While the idea is sound, the product looks no better than a mid-90s encyclopedia on CD.

And it really makes us realize, mixing medias—especially enhancing text for fiction—is tricky beyond the mere subject of taste. We're used to watching both news and fart-related video clips on a blog, but embedded flash video is just corny when placed next to a murder mystery.

Part of the challenge is format. UI needs to be updated to something we haven't really seen before—or maybe even imagined. Jumping across media should be a natural, passive experience. That part seems doable, though extremely difficult, with touch, camera and even voice interfaces. For instance, you could track a reader's eyes to a certain word and activate a sound. You could make a page turn naturally to a full screen video as opposed to relegating clips to an awkward 480x360 box.

But when hybridizing media, the part that could be even tougher is one of budgetary constraints. As soon as a book includes video, a publishing house becomes a production house and a writer becomes a director/editor. Stephen King's prose might send chills up your spine, but the local cable commercial quality video blurb sitting beside it won't have the budgetary love of a Hollywood flick, at least, not unless Stephen King or somebody else is going to take a paycut (or sell a LOT more books).

Advertising books costs money. Printing and distributing books costs money. But writing a book? That part's basically free.

So whatever Apple and publishing houses are cooking up, we hope it's beyond what we've seen in Vooks. No offense, Vook—someone had to do it (wrong) first. [Vook via NYT]

The most immediate (and maybe most promising) is Live Lookup. It'll be on the Wolverine disc (you know, the same one that has the PSPgo digital copy).

Live Lookup allows you to hit a button and be linked to IMDB. Actors can be sorted by scene, allowing you to search for bikini shots of cute, female b-listers later. Check it out in the lead photo.

Load times should be diminished or even eliminated, but at a cost. Fox plans to load BD menus while you watch previews. So things may not actually get faster, but you may have more incentive to sit through all that extra promotional material that shouldn't be on a BD in the first place.

Finally, we may even control a BD player through a remote device, like an iPhone. Not only could you search for content without popping a guide up onscreen, but the BD player could stream additional content to this second, personal screen.

These are all great ideas, but hopefully more studios than just Fox will adopt them. Read more of what Fox had to say on the matter over at: [SlashFilm]

You can expect movies a few weeks after they arrive to DVD from current participating studios Paramount, Universal Pictures and the Weinstein Company. The rentals are good for anywhere from 24 hours to 5 days.

Streaming a trailer, the quality wasn't super high (framerates, especially, took a hit). Plus, with iTunes rentals running only $4, it's tough to imagine mSpot taking over (iPhones, at least) entirely.

But a little competition never hurt anyone. [NYTimes via Engadget]

Sharp, at the request of Japan's National Institute of Informatics, has developed a method to ruin the camcorder footage shot by pirates in movie theaters. By placing mega IR lights behind the screen (which are invisible to the human eye, of course), the light can tunnel through tiny holes that are already in screens for the passage of sound.

The result is a wash of light protruding from the screen, ruining camcorder footage. The other result is that, while you'll still never buy a ticket to Wolverine, you'll never get to know how bad the movie really was until, hungover on the couch one afternoon, you catch it on TBS or something. [Fareastgizmos]

Note: Unfortunately, the IR blast won't look nearly as awesome as it does in this photo. I imagine a lame grid of lights, not a reworking by JJ Abrams.

When questioned by Reuters if Netflix was working on an iPhone-related partnership with Apple, Hastings responded:

it's something that's likely to come over time. But nothing in the short term. (With) movie watching, we are not focused on mobile yet, but (instead) on the TV, on Blu-ray and on the video game consoles. We will get to mobile eventually, including the iPhone.

At first, I looked at Hasting's statement as a false if casual bravado regarding the simplicity of arranging a deal with Apple. But given that both Sling and Sirius XM have worked their way onto the platform, it's reasonable to think that Netflix can make it, too. [Reuters via Digital Daily]

Apparently, this took him 20 years to put together, which is pretty apparent. This takes whatever "impressive" collections of props and replicas I've ever seen and puts them to shame. This is some next-level shit right here. I guess if you're going to live in a fortress of solitude, you might as well make it a badass one.

[The Oriens via Coudal via The Daily What]

Today, the iPhone fulfills its Destiny.

The Army of Darkness Soundboard—which is completely freakin' free—plays your favorite soundbites from the famous flick. Lines like "gimme some sugar baby" and "I got news for you pal, you ain't leading but two things right now, jack and shit and Jack left town" can be summoned with the touch of a button.

There's also a photo slideshow mode and the option to delay playback, allowing you to sneak out of the room while Bruce Campbell woos your loved one to "come get some."

Indeed, there are countless apps in Apple's store. But there's just one that's worth a damn(ation). [iTunes via iPhone Savior]

Clearly tongue-in-cheek, and also a fun watch...

Both 1080p HDTVs include wired and wireless internet connections and a crazy-sounding 16-speaker "sound projector" to really blast those rented flicks. Plus, the Vudu support includes support for YouTube, Flickr, Picasa and Pandora. Like Mitsubishi's previous deal, the purchase of one of these sets comes with a $50 Vudu credit for the first two months. Full press release below. [Mitsubishi]

Lion's Gate, Sony and Warner Bros are all reportedly discussing such a service with Google (who owns YouTube), although details are thin. Negotiations are still ongoing, so a lot of major issues (will downloads be available? Which films would be ad-supported versus a flat fee? What about TV shows?) are still unresolved. But if YouTube could get a solid, competitive system going, they'd have a fair chance at competing with Hulu, iTunes and Crackle and maybe even turn a profit one of these days. [WSJ]

I'm not going to pretend that anyone reading this story would be seeing JJ Abrams' Star Trek for the first time. Or even the second. But in case you didn't get to see Star Trek 3-?? times in the theater, this is probably your best, last chance...ever. Starting September 18th, Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs will most likely replace Star Trek. So like we said up top, you have two weeks to see it until the film is rereleased as a Disney classic in 2050. [Trek Movie via SlashFilm via CrunchGear]
