3:20AM Mark Wilson | I can’t speak for everyone here, but I have no need for email or bank account transfers on the go. Mobile web browsing is overrated as are thousands of songs in your pocket. But an Army of Darkness iPhone app?? More »

Full-Length MGM Movies To Come to YouTube

9:10PM Kit Eaton | MGM’s apparently due to announce it’ll be putting full-length movies from its impressive archive on to YouTube, essentially making them free of charge. Full-length TV shows will be kicking off the new partnership, with old episodes of American Gladiators at first, and movies like Bulletproof Monk and the Magnificent Seven to follow. MGM will be making money by making these shows ad-supported, and YouTube will get MGM’s large archive to add to its CBS shows. Should gizmos like Hulu start being worried? With Google’s might behind YouTube, maybe they should. AU: Guaranteed to be US only for the moment. Sorry, Aussie MGM fans, but they hate you. [I4U] More »

Robocop Is Back

11:30PM Mark Wilson | MGM announced its intentions to resurrect the Robocop franchise earlier this year, but you know Hollywood, it’s all just meaningless backseat fellatio until we see the first promotion poster/they call us back about that role. And from the looks of it, Robocop isn’t losing the 80s style…but he is getting a red Cylon-eye makeover. Oohh, maybe there’s a bad Robocop? (Note: that question is rhetorical, so don’t tell us in the comments if you’ve read the spoilers or something.) More »

Xbox 360 Now Offering MGM Movies

7:34AM Mark Wilson | The promised MGM films have just arrived to Xbox LIVE Marketplace. 360 owners will be able to enjoy films like the first four Rockies, The Terminator, Species, or a personal favourite, Wargames—with most supporting HD quality. If only MGM and Microsoft could team up to release more than just 19 movies from MGM’s rich library, we’d really be on to something pantsworthy. [Xbox via firingsquad] More »
