Sony has just announced the release dates for the third AND fourth installment of The Amazing Spider-Man on Monday, which seems to be a bit of a bold move considering no one can really say for certain how The Amazing Spider-Man 2 is going to fair at the box office once it hits the theaters.

The first trailer is finally out for Martin Scorsese’s latest film The Wolf Of Wall Street, which reunites him with Leonardo DiCaprio. In this new flick, Leo plays the role of a New York stockbroker named Jordan Belfort who was approached by the FBI during the 1990s to help them investigate a large securities fraud case.

Sad news for avid fans of The Avengers as Loki, one of the most popular characters in the film franchise played by Tom Hiddleston, won’t return for its sequel.

In honor of Father’s Day, I’m sharing with you this nice collection of 4 short films from YouTube channel ShortoftheWeek.

This is a wonderful video from Lego you must see. Remember the famous line on Stars Wars’ Empire Strikes Back when Darth Vader revealed to Luke Skywalker that he is his father and the latter just couldn’t accept it? Lego has made a nice twist on that story specially made for this year’s Father’s Day celebration. This video shows the dad and son tandem of Darth Vader and Luke, who are both having a good time bonding together.

Seth Rogen and Evan Goldberg may have just come up with this season’s sleeper movie, and by that, I don’t mean a movie that makes you fall asleep because it’s bad. I mean ‘sleeper’ as in something initially unnoticed that suddenly gains attention. Because their latest movie, titled This Is The End, didn’t really strike off as a box office hit (for me, at least). From the trailers, it did appear pretty funny — OK, hilarious, but as comedy that will shatter the box office and even come up as number one in midweek? Come on!

The film, which marks the directorial debut for both Golden and Rogen, is hoped to reach the $30 million mark over the next 5 days in order to recoup from its $32 million budget. And judging by the way it’s performing so far, things seem to be looking good considering that it already made $6.5 million on Wednesday from 3,055 theaters and including $2.2 million from Tuesday late shows and Wednesday midnights.

In this R-rated end-of-the-world comedy, Rogen, who both wrote and directed together with Goldberg, will star as himself, who’ll be leading an all-star cast of comedic actors, who by the way, are also playing as themselves (well, sort of) based on their public personas. It is based on a short film created by Rogen and Baruchel in 2007 titled Jay and Seth vs. The Apocalypse. The story is basically about a group of characters who suddenly found themselves trying to survive the apocalypse as they were about to attend a party at James Franco’s house.

Other stars in the film include Jonah Hill, Jay Baruchel, Danny McBride, Craig Robinson, Michael Cera, and Emma Watson. Special appearances include Rihanna, Kevin Hart, Paul Rudd, and Jason Segel.

Princess Diana was known as the people’s princess, a fashion and style icon, and one of the most popular and well-loved women in the world. Her untimely death made everyone mourn her loss and now, the princess comes back to life in the upcoming biopic.

Played by Naomi Watts, Princess Di definitely has come back. Watts did a very good job in impersonating her gestures, mannerisms, the way she wear her clothes as well as interacting with people. But what’s so surprising is how closely she resembles the late princess with her layered short haircut, her eyelashes, and her shy, head-down, eyes-up trademark smile.

Here we get a glimpse of the film’s trailer that depicts Diana caught amidst the pressures of fame. The biopic boasts of a grand production, from red carpets to designer ball gowns, to glamorous locations.

This story focuses on the last years of Diana’s life, so we’re about to see at least what happened during those times before her fatal car crash in August 1997.

If you’ve been watching videos on YouTube long enough then you should be familiar with the video of the “angry German kid” who was who wreaked havoc on his computer’s keyboard and eventually rage quits playing Unreal Tournament. Today I thought I’d show you a few other funny video game-related videos on YouTube that’ll lighten up your day.

First on the list is a very telling short clip that kind of shows us that StarCraft isn’t all that exciting to as many South Koreans as we think.

The second video shows us what Mario from the first and original Super Mario Bros. game would be like if he ever crossed the line and went from “Rated: E” to “Rated: M.”

Third is a compilation of funny moments in various video game titles, most of which has something to do with the game’s physics engine.

Now this fourth one is also a compilation of several clips taken from various games. YouTube user PewDiePie compiled it and actually has tons of other similar videos on his playlist. So if you like this one then you’re sure to love the others as well.

The fifth video on our list is somewhat similar to the infamous ‘Angry German Kid’, only this time it shows us a video capture of the game instead of the player himself. Have lots of laugh watching this guy play and try to finish this nearly impossible version of Super Mario for 23 minutes. Enjoy!

Youtube has been one of the most popular sites in the internet that gives viewers total visual entertainment that otherwise may not be available on TV. If you want to get noticed, just post your own video on Youtube and you might be the next big thing around the world.

Below are top 5 Youtube videos that went viral for the first half of 2013.

Mariska A.K.A. Houdini
Have you ever seen a horse that’s capable of opening the stall doors and anything else that might have food in it? Mariska can. Skeptical? Check out how she does it. According to Misty Sandy, she has been doing it for years, even doing it in front of them.

Cat Meets Snow (Original)
From racehorse to pet, another animal has made it to the list, a cat. Who wouldn’t love it? Cats are adorable pets and this video shows how cute Fletcher was when he went into the snow for the first time.

Worlds Cutest Frog – Desert Rain Frog
Frogs are known to be slimy and icky but this particular specie may change our view. The Desert Rain frog is probably the cutest frog there is, because it looks like a cartoon character that could be mistaken for a toy because of the defensive cry it creates. Hats off to Dean Boshoff for filming the rare encounter with this creature.

Woman with The Largest Hips in the World
Meet Mikel Ruffinelli, the woman with the largest hips in the world. Her hips measure a staggering eight feet which got the attention by many.

Trick Shot Titus 2 (ft. Jimmy Kimmel & Gregg Marshall)
The list wouldn’t be complete without Titus, the wonder kid who shoots hoops so well that NCAA coach Gregg Marshall couldn’t wait for him to reach his 18th birthday and recruit him on his team. Just 2 years of age, he’s able to shoot some trick shots even professionals aren’t capable of doing. And he beat Jimmy Kimmel in a shootout contest at his late-night show.

One of the films that grossed so well without spending that much is the suspense thriller The Purge. The film topped this week’s box office with a $36.4 million earnings on its opening that shocked everyone.

The Purge’s plot is set in a utopic United States in the year 2022, where crime has been eradicated except for one violent day in a year where crime is legal. Ethan Hawke and Lena Headey star in the film that is produced by Paranormal Activity producer Jason Blum and written and directed by James DeMonaco.

This is one of those rare cases where a relatively low-budget film outsells its competitors, and the film outfit and producers definitely are happy with the results. The horror movie was made for just a budget of $3 million and what it earned in the opening was way beyond expectations. Universal had expected an audience of high teens, which opened strong with late night screenings, grabbing $3.4 million ticket sales on Thursday night alone.

Because of its success, Universal says it’s likely they will shoot a sequel or prequel to it, or release another film in the same genre so expect it in the near future.

What could be the probable reason for this? Perhaps the viewers have been craving for a good suspense horror film for quite some time now, since no horror movies have been released lately.

Here are the top 5 grossers for the week:

1. The Purge, $36.4 million.

4. The Internship, $18.1 million.
5. Epic, $12.1 million ($12.7 million international).
