The truth is if you go behind the scenes of some of your favorite movies you'll find fuck-ups, failures and bleeding ulcers. If you needed any further proof that perseverance can lead to great things (or at least, a shitload of money), check out the stories behind... Ah, Star Wars (we're talking about the first film - and don't give us any of that "Episode IV" shit, either). The film served as a coming out party for such stars as bearded, nerdy director George Lucas, ruggedly handsome actor Harrison Ford and... and... Harrison Ford and...friends. Well, it worked wonders for Ford and Lucas, anyway. Why We Almost Never Got to See it This production was pretty much a disaster from the first step. We can't imagine why Ford thought this was weird. Over the course of filming, the budget ballooned from $8 million to $11 million (big money back then, especially for a film the studio didn't think could earn it back). Mechanical sharks suck.

Minimalist Movie Posters Make You Think About Life Sometimes things in life like movies really have the possibility to make you think about things in a new light. Saving Private Ryan did that for me, even though I was in the Air Force, it made me realize the reality of fighting a war against an experienced army. The minimalist approach has the ability to make even the smallest things that you may have not noticed the first time seem like the most important things in the movie. Daniel Keane over at WolfCadet.com has created a ton of cool posters making movies into minimalist pieces. The goal as far as I can tell is to get as much emotion out of as little as possible. Everything you see here is available to purchase and there are also a lot more including Seven posters and Shining posters. The battle of Thermopylae is one of the turning points in the history of the western world. 300 Spartains led an army of 7,000 men to defend a small pass from an invading Persian army that consisted of anywhere between 100,000 and 500,000 soldiers.
6 Insane Sequels That Almost Ruined Classic Movies Hollywood may be a soulless machine of sequels, prequels, remakes and ripoffs, but there are some movies that even they won't touch -- some because they are undisputed classics that would only be cheapened by a sequel, and some because there's simply no rational way to continue the story. Well, it turns out that if they've left those movies alone, it's not for lack of trying. Here are six absolutely real and completely insane proposed sequels that were fortunately never made: #6. Se7en 2: Ei8ht David Fincher's classic serial-killer flick Se7en has a pretty closed ending: Out of the four main characters, one is shot in the head, one is presumably institutionalized and another one now fits in a small box. In 2002, New Line Cinema grabbed a screenplay by the writer of Ocean's Eleven about a clairvoyant doctor who helps the FBI catch a serial killer and rewrote it as a sequel for Se7en, replacing the protagonist with Morgan Freeman's character from the first film. #5. Uh-oh. #4. No, really.
Amy Poehler Returns To Weekend Update For Really?!? With Seth Meyers On Birth Control Amy Poehler got back to her "Weekend Update" roots on "Saturday Night Live" this weekend when she joined former co-host Seth Meyers for a "Really?!?" segment on birth control. The instigator (but by no means the only issue covered) was last week's one-sided congressional committee on birth control that included no women. Poehler's best dig came after discussing conservative supporter Foster Freiss' now-infamous comment on the issue involving Bayer aspirin being used as contraception. He since apologized, but Amy wasn't having it: "Well, we'd love to accept your apology, Foster, but you made a mistake -- and now you're going to have to live with that mistake for the rest of your life." Virginia's latest anti-abortion measures were also on Seth and Amy's "Really?!?" "What's next?" Watch Seth and Amy's full takedown of these recent women's issues in the clip above.

8 Classic Movies That Got Away With Gaping Plot Holes Yeah, even Kane. The greatest film of all time, according to those monocle-wearing types who refuse to even consider Robocop for the title. The Plot: A bunch of reporters try to figure out the meaning of Charles Foster Kane's last words. "Rosebud." The Hole: No one was around to hear them. Now, no one's suggesting that journalists in the 40s weren't good at getting scoops. Kane's nurse, arriving several minutes too late for the movie to make any fucking sense And if they really are just that good, you think they'd also know the twist ending, that Rosebud was his sled (what kind of weirdo names his sled anyway? So the next time some film critic is getting all up in your face, picking holes in your favorite movie, hit them with that, and watch them curl up into a ball and weep like a child. You may not have seen this one if you're the type who refuses to watch movies from before you were born. It's not quite true that no one cared about this plot hole. Subtext: Suck it, Issac!

5 Ways Stores Use Science to Trick You Into Buying Crap A big chunk of the world economy runs on human weakness. Peer pressure, vanity, insecurity, the fact that we just cannot resist the sight of melted cheese -- all of these will make us fork over our cash. And really, we're fine with that. But what you may not know is that there are some other, much weirder scientific principles that factor into what you buy. You Move in Predictable Patterns You step in the front door of your nearest chain grocery store. This is the only sheep-based image we'll use this article. This is because, after years of analysis of how humans move in a store, they've found that we're as easy to predict as animal migrations. Grocery stores are laid out to lead you around a set path you didn't even know you were following. "Boy, those fresh carrots sure did help me forget that everything in this aisle has been dead for weeks." And sweet lady Boxed Wine. Remember, the goal is to keep you in the store as long as possible, and to make you pass as many shelves as possible.
