DJ Brace Spins Some Magic

DJ Brace Spins Some Magic

A fantastic performance by DJ Brace as he shows off his dexterity and timing between his twin turntables and mixing board. These days, the discs control digital sounds instead of analog ones – but he’s still got mad skills.

Westworld: Every Mysterious Question

Westworld: Every Mysterious Question

(Spoilers, PG-13) Have you ever questioned the nature of your reality? Fans of Westworld will want to watch this season one montage from Burger Fiction. Not every question was answered, but the show is doing a much better job clueing us in than Lost ever did.

Ken Block Drifts London

Ken Block Drifts London

With May, Hammond, and Clarkson gone, we’d much rather watch The Grand Tour than the new Top Gear, but we just had to share this extended footage in which Ken Block tore up the streets of London with his 1400 hp Hoonicorn Mustang, with Matt LeBlanc riding shotgun.

War for the Planet of the Apes (Trailer)

War for the Planet of the Apes (Trailer)

Caesar and his kin are drawn into a war against an army of humans, led by a Colonel (Woody Harrelson) hellbent on ending the apes, and forcing the audience to choose whether to root for the humans or the apes. Perhaps the next movie will be Rise of the Planet of the Fleas.

Baywatch (Trailer)

Baywatch (Trailer)

(PG-13) From Horrible Bosses, King of Kong and The Goldbergs director Seth Gordon comes a Seth Rogen-style comedy masquerading as a Baywatch reboot. Considering no one asked for it, this is probably the best outcome. Starring Dwayne Johnson, Zac Efron and Alexandra Daddario.

Spider-Man: Homecoming (Trailer)

Spider-Man: Homecoming (Trailer)

It’s Marvel’s third attempt in not so many years to reboot the Spider-Man franchise, so we’ve got some concerns, but we did find Tom Holland to be awkwardly charming in Civil War, so we’ll give him a chance. Watch the trailer and decide for yourself.

Fallon Plays Nintendo

RetroEngine Sigma

RetroEngine Sigma

One of the hottest gifts this year is the miniature remake of the NES, but we’re thinking of investing our cash in this versatile palm-sized console instead. It works with a variety of retro game emulators and USB controllers, has an HDMI output, and works as a 4K media player.

Speeder Bike Water Battle

Speeder Bike Water Battle

For his latest video, Devin Supertramp replicated the classic speeder bike chase from Return of the Jedi – but instead of flying precariously between giant redwoods, they did the stunt on water, using specially modified Jetovator jetpacks. Duct tape ftw.

The Founder (Trailer)

The Founder (Trailer)

“You’re not in the burger business. You’re in the real estate business.” Michael Keaton stars as the late businessman Ray Kroc, who – for better or for worse – revolutionized franchising and turned McDonald’s into the American icon that it is today.

The Evolution of Disney Animation

The Evolution of Disney Animation

Bora Barroso presents a brief look back at animated films from the House of Mouse, from 1937’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, up to this year’s Zootopia. While the style and technique have changed, the storytelling and characters continue to enthrall.

Free Skates are Awesome

Free Skates are Awesome

Kuma Films presents footage of a fun and different way to get around the skatepark, using a pair of tiny, independent boards instead of a regular skateboard. Isamu Yamamoto – the kid in the video totally kills it.

583-Foot Basketball Shot

583-Foot Basketball Shot

To celebrate the first ever World Trick Shot Day (who knew?), Harlem Globetrotter Buckets Blakes headed to the top of the 58-story Tower of the Americas in San Antonio, and took aim at the basket far below. We have no idea how he worked the wind into his calculations.

LEGO Ideas: Iron Giant

LEGO Ideas: Iron Giant

One of the coolest concepts we’ve seen on the LEGO Ideas‘ website, Brett Cuviello’s Iron Giant build is simply spectacular, and does a great job replicating the giant robot from Brad Bird’s 1999 animated classic. The 2,000 piece set would have to be pricy, but we desperately want one.

Moving Pictures 2016

Moving Pictures 2016

Filmmaker Clark Zhu presents a year-end compilation which features scenes from 262 motion pictures released in 2016. While not every movie lived up to its trailer, it’s still a fantastic recap of the year in film. Full list of movies here.

Foldscope

Foldscope

The Foldscope is an incredibly affordable flat-pack microscope that’s mostly made of paper. It comes with a lens that provides 140x magnification – on par with four-figure microscopes. The $20 kit comes with prepared and blank slides, an LED lamp and more.

Death Stranding (Teaser)

Death Stranding (Teaser)

Hideo Kojima’s first game with his independent studio is an open-world action PS4 exclusive that stars perfect avatars of actors Norman Reedus and Mads Mikkelsen, along with director Guillermo del Toro. Aaaand that’s all we know. But in Kojima we trust.

The Mummy (Trailer)

The Mummy (Trailer)

Tom Cruise and Russell Crowe star in this popcorn flick about a pissed off undead Egpytian princess. Tom does things from great heights, gets hurt, runs, is low key good at comedy, stares intensely, starts with a whisper, ends with a scream, saves the day, smiles.

Spectral (Trailer)

Spectral (Trailer)

It reads more like a video game plot than a feature film, but we’re still gonna watch this Netflix original film about a mysterious and nearly invisible force that’s been killing civilians in a wartorn city, and the special ops and scientific operation to stop them. Drops 12/9/16.

Crash Bandicoot: N. Sane Trilogy

Crash Bandicoot: N. Sane Trilogy

One of our all time favorite 3D platformers is back. Naughty Dog’s breakout PlayStation series has gotten way more than just a fresh coat of paint in this PS4 remake which includes Crash Bandicoot, Crash Bandicoot 2: Cortex Strikes Back, and Crash Bandicoot: Warped
