Doctor Who Meets Star Wars

I have many geek addictions, but the two that dominate all of my obsessions are Star Wars and Doctor Who. Naturally, if anyone could mash them both together, I'd be pretty excited. And somebody has.

Well, it's a parody mashup -- but overall, the video below is a fun little exercise of weaving Christopher Eccleston, David Tennant, and Matt Smith into the Star Wars saga. The mashup was directed and edited by Rick Kelvington.

So what happens when a Time Lord meets a Sith Lord? What happens if you add lightsabers to the Whoniverse? Check it out [...]

New CGI/Stop-Motion ‘Wizard Of Oz’ Re-Imagining On The Way

Posted: 17 Dec 2010 08:58 AM PST



Yes, there are an astonishing amount of Wizard of Oz remakes, adaptations, and sequels that currently seem to be on the way at the moment. Whether they'll all make it to the big screen remains to be seen, but that's not stopping others from adding to the pile.

Vanguard Films has a new re-imagining of the classic tale in development called Oz Wars that will use CGI and stop-motion animations. Unlike most of the other Oz projects in the works -- which seem to be staying generally close to the original story -- this one will be taking things to a seriously different level, being set in the contemporary world and bringing black magic, battle-ready warrior witches, monsters, and even martial arts to the table.

Vanguard has hired Mike Johnson to direct the movie, which is written by Rob Moreland. Johnson has previously co-directed Corpse Bride with Tim Burton, and directed episodes of The PJs.

Moreland has previously written Happily N'Ever After and Space Chimps. [...]
