Last year at Comic-Con we needed photos to prove that we were part of the in crowd. We displayed these photos in a feature that we called We Know People. And just like we did with Comic-Con, we are bringing it all back this year…

Spaced is a popular BBC show from a few years back, and it is not science fiction. Did you think it was? Fool. We talk to the show’s stars and find out just what it is.

While doing his press rounds at Cannes this week, Simon Pegg let slip a little tidbit about an awesome upcoming project with longtime friend Nick Frost. Details inside.

J.J. Abrams, like many of the people his age and under, grew up a Star Wars fanatic. So why, then, is a Yoda lover filming Spock?

Edgar Wright and Simon Pegg, the creative minds behind Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz are gearing up to finish what they’ve called the “Cornetto trilogy.”

While I’ll admit that Run Fatboy Run has it’s moments and a fair share of big laughs, it’s not recommendable due to the fact that there are more cliches than you can shake a stick at. Pretty much every cliche you can find in any romantic comedy or inspirational sports movie can be found at some point in the film.

Following Simon Pegg’s super-cool performance in the live-wire Brit-cop parody that was last year’s Hot Fuzz, the pressure was on to follow up in his next project with the same writing prowess that made that film so freakin’ good. The resulting film is Run Fatboy Run, a humorous, compact little flick which possesses a slightly different overall style than that of his previous works.

The movie’s funny, and since it’s so British, why not go to a pub and knock back a few pints before, during and after the film. Here’s some help.

The following pictures, which come to us from a spy on set, aren’t helping me get any more excited about the upcoming J.J. Abrams-directed Star Trek film, but it may help Trekkies get their Vulcan ears all a-twitch.

Though British, Hot Fuzz is part cheeky send-up of and part loving homage to the American action film.
