Cue that John Williams score

The film bro community is one of the most oppressed groups in modern history. Well, not really, but they don't deserve a lot of the slack they get online. Sure, there is something annoying about a pretentious guy trying to overexplain well-known filmmakers to you like you're a baby. Unfortunately the label of “film bro” has gotten so muddied over the past couple of years, it is now used to describe anyone with slightly non-normative tastes in movies. The term “film bros” used to represent a gro…

I love Hallmark Christmas movies . Well, maybe love is too strong of a term. I will watch at least one Hallmark Christmas movie yearly to bask in the channel's dedication to repetitiveness, cheapness, and corniness. It makes me feel comforted that hundreds of practically identical movies are playing on the Hallmark Channel all day, every day, during this time of year. Even during the rest of the year, the Hallmark Channel has committed itself to the values of churning out the same tired stuff b…

When Love Actually came out in theaters, I had just turned fifteen years old. My friends and I were slight anglophiles who worshipped accented singers like Robert Smith and Damon Albarn, and watched period pieces after school. The star-studded cast of Richard Curtis ' Christmas film made a screening a no-brainer. Colin Firth? Hugh Grant? Alan Rickman? Emma Thompson? I mean, come on. All the big names. It was mandatory. We had to see it, so we did and boy, did we love it. Sure, some of the plotl…

Now that the gluttony and ritual of Thanksgiving have come and gone, 'tis finally the season for indulging in Hallmark Christmas/holiday movies. Now, I understand that many of you may consider the “films” (if you can call them that) a low form of entertainment. But gosh darn it, they are predictable! There are not many tropes that compare when it comes to formulaicity, a

The lie continues

Some astute observations in here.

"Doctor" Jordan Breeding and Your Brain On Cracked return to discuss how everybody in Star Wars, Game of Thrones, and every other Sci-Fi and Fantasy series are STUPID.

Here at Memebase we're very open about our intense love for actor and comedian Danny DeVito . The portly Italian has graced our screens for over forty years, and from Taxi to It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia , we've loved it all. But being awesome on-screen isn't all the man's good for. In fact, some of his offscreen stunts, both wholesome and funny, probably trump some of those roles. In this video, our friends from Cracked take a closer look at these hilarious and heartwarming moments.

I've known for over twenty years that Leonardo DiCaprio 's birthday is November 11th. As an aging millennial , he was the heartthrob for me. Sure, Jonathan Taylor Thomas had his moment, but Leo was a serious actor. He may be a little thiccer than when I daydreamed about our eventual (in my mind, inevitable) marriage, but the dude has got star power. And now, at the ripe old age of 48, he's also got a whole lot of meme power. Leonard DiCaprio has been a mainstay of the memeosphere for as long as…

Picture this: You're a woman in the big city who is working hard to build your cookie company. You have a few clients (most of whom you've known a long time, and happen to be very quirky ) but the bills are stacking up and you are afraid you might have to go back to your job as an administrative assistant in the finance industry. You've just found out that your aunt back home in the Midwest (the only person in your family who is still alive) is sick with cancer. The stress and sadness are teari…

“Film Twitter” has been going strong for years now, and sometimes the threads and debates can get seriously tiring. While some people praise the CGI or plot of Marvel movies , others distance themselves from the big box office MCU movies in favor of films they think to be cooler. You know, like Uncut Gems. There's also the tendency to start threads where people hate on tropes or cinematographic styles. These threads happen again and again, and honestly, the hate starts to wear on an innocent mo…

By now, everyone's seen some of the hilariously cursed images generated through OpenAI's infamous AI system, DALL-E. Memelords and regular internet users alike have had a hell of a time testing the system's limits and possibilities, and we've gotten some pretty dank memes out of it. One redditor recently posted a series of fake movie posters that look like DALL-E vomited its closest approximations to some of Hollywood's most famous titles. While most of these are pretty obvious, we've included…
