Tech Buzz The all-digital cinema is basically here: what the end of film means for you.

Jeffrey Ault captured these haunting images and sounds of the Challenger disaster, in which all seven crew members were killed. The moment the loudspeaker announces an explosion is heartbreaking.
Movie Buzz This is really cool. Cinematic supercut maker kogognada—who gave us every “Breaking Bad” POV shot, among others—is back with “Tarantino From Below,” featuring all of Quentin Tarantino's famous “Trunk shots” (and its variants).

TV Buzz What really lies (and sits, and jumps) at the end of a three-hour awards show? Uggie does.
TV Buzz This concerns me. Tim Gunn was one of ABC's pre-Oscars red carpet correspondents. Unfortunately, Gunn's intros and outros—along with basically every other part of his performance—weren't quite as ravishingly fabulous as the famous women he had the privilege of interviewing.
TV Buzz I don't know precisely why, but I find 13-year-old movie critic Jackson Murphy—aka “Lights-Camera-Jackson”—to be insufferable. Maybe it's that his robotic inauthenticity reminds me of a younger Mitt Romney. Or maybe he's just that damn irritating.
Movie Buzz …and then try to put the pieces back together again. The documentary, directed by the Sundance and Emmy-award winning filmmaker Lee Hirsch, follows the lives of five families affected by bullying and their determination to make a difference. It's set to release on March 30th, 2012. (via thebullyproject.com)

Tech Buzz Ooh, that's gotta hurt. Sean Hopkins 1, Blockbuster 0.
TV Buzz One out of two ain't bad. On Bravo's “Watch What Happens Live” Thursday night, guest Daniel Radcliffe gave all sorts of opinions. As you'll see in this clip, while “Twilight” isn't Radcliffe's “cup of tea,” he loves him some Lana Del Rey.
Movie Buzz How would you spend your last days on Earth? Here's the first official trailer for “Seeking a Friend for the End of the World,” an apocalyptic rom-com starring Steve Carell and Keira Knightley as neighbors who team up to make each other's End of Days dreams come true.

Movie Buzz Shots fired! At a recent press conference in London, Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy were asked about recent claims by Fox Business anchor Eric Bolling that “The Muppets” pushes a liberal agenda meant to brainwash children. Here's their response. (via The Daily What)
TV Buzz At tonight's Screen Actors Guild Awards, Octavia Spencer won Outstanding Performance by a Female Actor in a Supporting Role for her turn as Minny Jackson in “The Help.” As you'll see in these animated GIFs of Spencer's shining moment, she was very expressive.
Movie Buzz Still better than a zoo, amirite? If you ever wanted to know what the trailer for “We Bought a Zoo” would look like when mashed up with footage from “The Shawshank Redemption” and “The Green Mile,” well, look no further!
Culture Buzz Vimeo user Hey_Rabbit filmed this compilation on her Canon Powershot from January 2011 to January 2012. My new, and relatively late New Years resolution is to do this starting in 2013.
TV Buzz Pretty pictures of even prettier stars! The 69th Annual Golden Globe Awards are history, but that doesn't mean we're done talking about them. From the red carpet coverage to the Madonna mayhem, from Elton John's stank face to Meryl Streep's “surprised” one, here are the night's most memorable images.
TV Buzz Where do I even begin here? So, Madonna won a Golden Globe tonight for Best Original Song in a Motion Picture, which she accepted via an affected, narcissistic and pretentious speech that drew ire from the other nominees. She then made passive-aggressive remarks about Elton John. After that, Ricky Gervais. And then, finally, her narcissism had an encore when she presented the award for Best Foreign Film. Here's everything you missed in the order it occurred.

Culture Buzz Filmmaker Richard Ramsey (“The Life Project”) and comic John Ramsey turned what most people commonly consider a total embarrassment into a comedy goldmine — their childhood.
Movie Buzz It didn't take long for this to happen, and it LOOKS LIKE it also didn't take long for this to happen. It's still perfect. Just saying.
Movie Buzz Arguably the best part of going to the movies is the pre-screening content, no? That wacky trivia, those localized commercials and yes: THE SCREEN SCRAMBLERS. (Or should we call them: HET CSRNEE SRCBAMERSL.) (via twitter.com)
Movie Buzz TIME video editor Valerie Lapinski's epic supercut of Tom Cruise running all over the Big Screen will leave you breathless.
Movie Buzz From the minds that brought us 160 pantsless people riding the NYC subway and a frozen Grand Central Station, Improv Everywhere is making a documentary about their pranks and the people behind them. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to make this movie happen.
