Blur: League of Legends Cinematic “A Twist of Fate”

Blur: League of Legends Cinematic “A Twist of Fate”:

It’s getting very hard to stand out in the world of game cinematics. But somehow Blur always manages to pull it off.
Case in point, “A Twist of Fate,” Blur’s trailer for League of Legends, the multi-player battle game from Riot Games. Each vignette in the trailer pumps up the action from the previous vignette, culminating in an over-the-top battle royale that even the most jaded consumer of game trailers can appreciate.

Killer Klowns from Outer Space, the 25th anniversarry.:

May the 27th 1988 and the world is introduced to the theatrical release of Killer Klowns from Outer Space. My Buddy Nelson and I was there and this has been a favorite ever since. The film is the brain child of three brothers. Charles, Edward and Stephen Chiodo, or for short the Chiodo Brothers. These three individuals are brilliant artists in all realms of the imagination. They sculpt, They draw, They write, Direct and they dream with endless creativity. The brothers got their start in 1980 providing animation for the film “I Go Pogo” This film led to many more shorts as well as providing an incredible piece of work for Tim Burton’s first shorts called “Vincent”. Their resume is long and full of contributions to every form of television show. feature film, and also to a host of Commercials. Their latest project is due out this year and is entitled, “Once upon a Christmas Dream”. Killer Klowns was written, directed, produced, production designed and puppeteered by the trio with a brilliant soundtrack by John Massari and the theme song written and performed by the Dickies. This is a tale of space invaders that have come to earth to feast upon the human inhabitants. Everything that you find creepy and scary about clowns, the brothers have taken and twisted into a dark comedy filled with zany characters and incredible disturbing moments featuring the Klowns themselves. Everyone wants to go the circus is the lure and once inside their big top circus tent shaped space ship, the only act performed is to turn the town folk into giant balls of Cotton Candy. The film is a masterpiece of it’s genre and has reached the renowned cult classic status. This is a very fun ride filled with a lot of laughs, screams and imagination. For a great time at the movies and a flashback to the mid 1980′s Killer Klowns is a must see. be sure to check out the Chiodo Brothes website by following the link below. Happy 25th guys and thanks for this gem of a motion Picture.
