In chillier parts of the country, you might not believe it, but summer is a-comin'. And of course, with summer come action films. And with action films come fast cars, scantily clad women, and Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson. Add all that together, carry the one, and you've got the new trailer for Fast...

Fast Five’s April 29 release date is quickly approaching and in the lead up the film’s producers have released this new trailer. This is the second official trailer--there was a previous Super Bowl spot and first trailer--and shows that the movie will be chockfull of explosions, chase...

In case you haven't been paying attention, this Sunday is the 83rd Academy Awards ceremony, and it promises to be, well...interesting. The organizers have hired two young hosts, one of whom still lives on the fringes of superstardom and neither of whom is a comedian. In a bid to draw back younger...

At last count, there were at least five reasons to love the internet: 1. [REDACTED] 2. Cat videos. 3. The Oatmeal. 4. The lovely and talented High Gear Media family. 5. The opportunity it provides crazy obsessive people to show off their handiwork. And in service of #5 comes news that graphic...

One of Winter's most anticipated films was TRON Legacy, the follow-up to 1980s science-fiction film TRON. In the original, a hacker played by Jeff Bridges gets absorbed into a perilous virtual world and in Legacy, his son falls to the same fate. For tech fans the plot is really just a sideline to...

Between the shortened holiday weekend and the lingering afterglow of the Detroit Auto Show, we haven't had gobs of time (or energy) to follow up on most of the items in the Celebs And Cars inbox -- at least not in detail. And so, in flippant Friday fashion, we present a quick rundown of the major...

Dear Hollywood: We demand that you cease and desist directing, producing, promoting, or in any way encouraging Adam Sandler to appear in more "bro-medies". We don't think that "bro-medies" is a real word -- in fact, we hope it's not. We just dreamed it up to describe whatever Sandler's been doing...

As of last summer, there were as many as three different versions of the life story of legendary automotive entrepeneur and engineer John Z. DeLorean. The front-runner for production is now tipped to have George Clooney on the line to play DeLorean's role. Running from DeLorean's time at General...

You have no idea how much we love the holidays. Not because of the mini-vacation, or the change in weather, or the turducken -- though those are nice, of course -- but because of the dazzling array of movies on view. From Thanksgiving through New Year's Eve, at cineplexes across America, studios...

BMW’s next-generation 6-Series is just around the corner, with an early 2011 reveal looking more and more likely. We’ve seen prototypes for both the Coupe and the Convertible for more than a year now, and at the 2010 Paris Auto Show we saw a concept version of the new 6-Series that...

On Wednesday, we told you about Volkswagen's "See Film Differently" film project. Now Hyundai has decided to align itself with movie buffs by sponsoring three film screenings called Glamour Reel Moments. Glamour Reel Moments is an ongoing project of Glamour magazine, and over five years, it's given...

As you might've heard, there's going to be a third Transformers film. Megan Fox isn't involved. Michael Bay is. We've already begun stockpiling tomatoes. The shoot for Transformers III: Lube Job (or whatever they're calling it) hasn't been going all that great. You might recall last month's tragic...

The production of the third installment of the Transformers franchise has suffered another setback this week with one of the stars of the show, the Bumblebee Chevrolet Camaro, getting involved in a crash with a real police vehicle. The accident took place in the heart of Washington DC and involved...

Last week, an extra on the set of Michael Bay's Transformers 3 was gravely injured when a stunt went horribly wrong. The actress -- 24-year-old Gabriela Cedillo -- was on a set in Hammond, Indiana, when a cable being used in the scene snapped and hit her in the head. The accident occurred during...

Today, we are happy to share with you Motor Authority's foolproof action movie formula! Be careful not to share it with anyone before you make millions for yourself and others. First, pick one bald muscleguy: A. Vin Diesel B. Dwayne Johnson C. Jason Statham D. Bruce Willis Next, pick one car of...

We've been perplexed by Lexus' "dark side of green" motif for the 2011 CT 200h ever since it was unveiled at the New York Auto Show this year, and even after getting a look at the interactive "Dark Ride" movie, we're left, well, in the dark. And not in a good way. The mission behind the interactive...

Yes, you read that headline correctly (especially if you jumped right over the "holy" part): in the future, we will all be subjected to more bouts of ridonkulous gearhead hijinks on the big screen. Rumor has it that in the future we will also wear lots of spandex and have robot butlers, but as of...

Whether it's for the quirky but ultimately flawed stainless-steel DeLorean DMC-12, his legacy as the developer of the Pontiac GTO, or his role behind the scenes at Packard and General Motors, John DeLorean will be remembered as one of the 20th Century's most influential automotive personalities...

Although the days of Toby Halicki's 40-minute chase scenes seem to be long and lamentably gone, his production company has licensed the latest incarnation of Eleanor for reproduction. That means that Joe Public can get his very own Eleanor for the meager sum of $139,900. And this isn't...

The original Fast and the Furious was a pretty decent movie. Sure, it had the odd cheesy line (“I live life a quarter mile at a time”), but overall we enjoyed it. Then 2 Fast 2 Furious came out and it was on the same level as a Steven Segal movie. With a change in country and the...
