[WATCH] Macaulay Culkin Play a Psychopath Version of His ‘Home Alone’ Character

0

Macaulay Culkin plays a psychopath version of Kevin McCallister from ‘Home Alone’ in this new webseries.

If you have ever wondered, “I wonder what Kevin McCallister from Home Alone would have been like as an adult?”, well a new web series, which stars Macaulay Culkin himself, may give you a few hints. FYI: he’s pretty insane.

In the debut episode of :DRYVERS, Macaulay Culkin plays the driver to a company similar to Uber, with a whole lot of psychological damage from the time he was eight years old and his entire family went on vacation without him.

The web series creator Jack Dishel calls for a ride and ends up having to listen to Culkin complain about his childhood, which sounds exactly like the plot of the 1990 hit Christmas movie. I had to fend off my house from two psychopath home invaders,” he says in the clip, via EW. “I was just a kid. I mean, I still have nightmares about this bald, weirdo dude chasing me around talking like Yosemite Sam.”

When the two come in contact with a carjacker, Culkin still has all of his previous booby-trap talents up his sleeve and ends up capturing him. He then ties him up and holds him hostage.

Future episodes of  are set to be released in 2016 and will feature more famous cameos, such as Rosanna Arquette and Steven Weber.

[WATCH] ‘Star Wars’: How to Use Jedi Mind Tricks to Manipulate Others

0

Learn how to use real Jedi Mind Tricks in every day life.

George Lucas inspired a generation of young men attempting to control people with the power of ‘The Force’ and Jedi Mind Tricks. However, it turns out that you don’t need any special powers to perform these mind tricks, outside of the psychological techniques to manipulating people to do what you want, you can perform some of the Jedi Mind tricks found in the ‘Star Wars’ movies. All you need to know is a little bit of science.

A neuroscientist at UCSD who goes by the anonymous online identity of Alie Astrocye has put together a video explaining how you can use psychology to manipulate others. For example, when Obi Wan Kenobi tells those imperial storm troopers that these aren’t the droids they’re looking for, he’s playing on their response expectancies. Whoa.

What does that mean? Well, BGR does an amazing explanation of the psychological phenomenon.

What does this mean, you ask? Well, consider that the storm troopers have already inspected a lot of different vehicles out in the heat for what they likely feel is a really lame assignment. When another vehicle is stopped, they don’t actually expect it to contain the droids they’re looking for. Hence, when Kenobi confirms their expectations, they’re likely to believe him.

When Luke Skywalker breaks into Jaba’s lair in Return of the Jedi, he tells Jaba’s servant Bib to immediately take him to his master. Bib hesitates for a moment and then does as he’s told. Alie Astrocyte says that because Bib knows of Skywalker’s reputation as a powerful Jedi, which thus gives Luke’s command the added weight of authority.

10 Movies That Stole Their Plots From Other Movies

0

10 movies that have the same plot and storyline as other movies.

Hollywood is far from being original. Nowadays movies are reboots, sequels, and remakes of older movies. But, there are certain movies that are basically copies of other movies that came out around the same time, just with different actors and crew members. Basically, it’s the result of competing studios trying to take on the same movie plot. And it’s pretty hilarious when it happens!

ScreenRant found 10 “twin” movies that essentially have the same story line with another movie and it’s more common than you think.

Movies like Deep Impact and Armageddon, Antz and A Bug’s Life, The Prestige and The Illusionist, and so many more are such identical movies it’s hard to tell who stole what from whom.

Beans From ‘Even Stevens’ Now Works As Santa’s Elf in a Mall

0

Beans from Even Stevens now works as Santa’s helper in a California mall.

Not every child actor makes it big in Hollywood. Don’t believe me? Well ask Steven Anthony Lawrence, best known as “Beans” from Even Stevens, the Disney channel series that ran for three seasons and boosted Shia LaBeouf’s acting career.

Even Stevens
Even Stevens

Apparently, Lawrence is working as Santa’s helper at a shopping mall in California.

He seems to be okay with all of the attention, despite feeling “like I’ve changed so much when I look in the mirror.”

Seeing someone who used to be on TV now work at a mall for close to minimum wage is pretty depressing.

The 25-year-old, who’s done some commercial work is now teaching acting classes and is expected to work on several low budget independent movies including Clyde 3D, an upcoming movie about “two bumbling elves [who] team up with Santa’s daughter Holly to try to help a Michigan family in danger of losing its Christmas-tree farm.”

…Or he’s just a method actor, training for years to act like an elf for a low budget movie?
