Awesome Sci-Fi Thriller: POLIS [Short Film]

Check out this awesome sci-fi short I’ve stumbled on today while browsing the “Staff Pick” section of Vimeo.com. Unfortunately, POLIS is very short, but I’m sure a full length movie using part of the above video as its intro would be something people would definitely watch.

Set in the distant future, POLIS is a sci-fi thriller about David Porter, a young telepath whose search for his mother threatens to uncover a utopian society’s horrifying secrets.

This McDonald’s Hamburger is 20-Year-Old and Looks Brand New [Pic + Video]

mc1

The hamburger you see above was purchased for a friend 20 years ago by two teenagers in Adelaide, Australia. When the friend never showed up, they decided to keep it. And now, 20 years later, this is what the burger looks like. The thing is rock hard and there’s absolutely no mold on it. Yuck.

“We’re pretty sure it’s the oldest burger in the world. It started off as a joke, you know. We told our friend we would hold his burger for him but he never showed up, and before we knew it six months had passed.”

NO, DO NOT EAT IT! DO NOT! (Below)

5 Good Reasons We Still Don’t Like Movie Games

There is still a huge problem with movie games. It seems anytime a developer gets a movie license, they rush to get the game out in time, and as a result, put out another crappy licensed game that is not even worth playing. Will this ever end? The worst part is, they still make awful games out of some great licenses (Spiderman, we’re looking at YOU) and the trend has been this way since the inception of gaming.

E.T on Atari, anyone?
