Director extraordinaire, David Lynch has announced he is planning to film another movie; this time, however, a documentary on the legendary Maharishi Mahesh Yogi.

It really doesn’t come as a surprise from the California resident - who most recently worked together with Danger Mouse and Sparklehorse (Read more about that in a previous post here.) - since he himself is an active student of the Indian guru’s teachings: Transcendental Meditation. What’s more, he even founded his own foundation, which aims “for consciousness-based education and world peace“.

The most well-known students of the guru (who passed away last year at the ripe age of 90) were the Beatles, who began visiting him regularly in the late ’60s. Since then, a whole slew of musicians and celebs have chosen to follow the Yogi’s teachings including the Rolling Stones, Jane Fonda, Stevie Wonder, Clint Eastwood and even Kurt Vonnegut. The guru travelled extensively to acquaint the world with his doctrines including stops at the BBC, at Royal Albert Hall, appearing in Time Magazine, and pretty much visiting every continent resulting in a following in the hundreds of thousands of people.

James Cameron’s long-awaited, much-anticipated 3D Sci-Fi epic hits theatres this December. Check out the trailer above.

Following Bottle Rocket, Rushmore, The Royal Tenenbaums, The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou, and The Darjeeling Limited, Wes Anderson’s next project is a stop-motion animation film. Most likely a must see for fans of Stop-motion Bill Murray, and stop-motion Kumar Pallana.

Guardian photographer, Dan Chung shot the above video with his Canon 5D with Nikon and Zeiss lenses using manual focus. He purchased the camera to use solely as a video camera with existing Nikon kit. The film was shot and edited in about twelve hours directly after picking the camera up from a Beijing camera store and charging the battery. Impressive stuff.

The geniuses at Pixar have come up with this new, short film, which will be shown in theatres as an introduction to their soon-to-be-released UP feature film. It is sheer genius, and right off the bat I watched it three times in a row. Like everything else, it’s about - what else - sex. Check it out on Fubiz’s website.

Stacy Peralta created a short film for Burger King. The goal was to take the Whopper and the Big Mac to those remote areas of the globe where the hamburger was non-existent, and get “hamburger virgins” to take taste tests to find out which sandwich they deemed was better. I’m sure I don’t have to tell you which sandwich won…

I have a thing for old movie posters. Especially horror movie posters. For the most part, they’re beautifully drawn, in an era before Photoshop and Illustrator existed. Couple that with the dark humour to make you chuckle while giving you a cold chill, and what else more could you possibly need? It’s no wonder why many brands tend to be “inspired” by these works of art. Thanks to WellMedicated, you can browse through 100 old illustrated horror movie posters.

Check out the first part here, and the second here.
