ECTO COOLER IS COMING BACK!

Call me nostalgic, but I had to break my non-posting slump for this.

Hi-C Ecto Cooler

Hi-C is bringing back Ecto Cooler, the amazing Ghostbusters themed citrus flavored/green colored drink. It last debuted in 1987 and was discontinued in 2001; since then it has seen many people attempting to replicate the elixir (pretty sure I've posted a recipe on here).

It will come back on May 30th to promote the new Ghostbusters movie, and you can follow the action at Ecto.cool before it is released. Apparently the cans will be similar to Coors Light's blue Rocky Mountains, and slime will turn green when cold.

'Back to the Future' Day has finally arrived!

Hope everyone enjoyed 'Back to the Future' Day today, which celebrated the date Marty and Doc traveled to in Back to the Future Part II. Figured I'd post some of the cooler stuff I came across today:

How accurate was the technology depicted in BttF?

Michael J. Fox received the first pair of self lacing Nike Air Mags

An honest trailer for 'Back to the Future'

A special message from Doc Brown

Oh, and Pepsi Perfect is real! It already sold out today, but they are releasing more on November 3rd.

There's going to be a 'Joe Dirt' 2

From CinemaBlend:
Like a lot of comedies, Joe Dirt didn’t exactly make a fortune when it first hit the box office. In fact, the results were mediocre at best, but thanks to continued airings on cable and the weird rewatchability of the project, it has slowly turned into a cult classic over the years. Today, we got the best evidence of that yet when a sequel was officially announced for the first time.

According to Deadline, Joe Dirt 2 will begin production in November in Louisiana with an eye toward officially releasing on Crackle in 2015. That’s right. Joe Dirt 2 will be released on Crackle, which seems utterly bizarre until you think about it for a few minutes.

The move comes just a few weeks after longtime David Spade buddy Adam Sandler announced he would be releasing four upcoming movies exclusively on Netflix. That’s obviously a little more high profile than Crackle, but the deal likely got the ball rolling in the former SNL star’s mind, especially since Happy Madison will produce Joe Dirt 2. The project has been in-development for years, but as we know, that means nothing until the money is on the table. So, in the end, money from Crackle is better than no money at all.

Crackle is basically a television network on the Internet. The content is completely free, but it is interspersed with commercials in order to generate revenue. As far as we know, that means Joe Dirt 2 will simply get placed on the website whenever it’s finished and consumers will be free to watch it whenever they have time, provided they’re willing to sit through advertisements. It’s obviously not a perfect way to watch movies, but it’s better than a lot of alternatives.

Deadpool Movie Test Footage

I can't say I'm much of a fan of Deadpool; the comics are a bit ridiculous, though funny. That being said, if a Deadpool movie were to come out and be as ridiculous as this test footage, I'd be down for that:
