Watch Movies Free

This was one of those lucky years when we were treated to the beauty of a stop-motion animated movie from those geniuses over at LAIKA. Kubo and the Two Strings didn’t arrive with much pomp and circumstance, but it was quite the satisfying theatrical experience for those of us who went out of our way to see it a couple months ago. For those of you who did catch it and fell in love with it, you might want to stay tuned to Mondo today to get your hands on some stunning new artwork.

Kubo and the Two Strings arrives on home video today, and Mondo is celebrating with a gorgeous new print by artist César Moreno. However, if you happen to be more of a fan of LAIKA’s first movie Coraline, then there are two new prints that might tickle your fancy even more. Check out the Mondo Laika prints after the jump.

First up, here’s the Kubo and the Two Strings print:



The 18×24 screen print featuring Kubo, Monkey and Beatle in the Hall of Bones will be hand numbered with an edition of 225, and it will cost you $45. The lines in the background almost give it an anime feel, which fits in with the film’s aesthetic rather nicely.

But if Coraline is more your speed, then here’s a couple great pieces you’ll enjoy:

Both are done by Graham Erwin. As you can see the variant (right) has some subtle variations, such as a different expression on Coraline’s face, button eyes for Wybie, and an angel version of one of the Scottie dogs. The regular version has an edition of 225 and will cost $45 while the variant has an edition of 125 and will cost $65. Both are 24×36 screen prints that will be hand-numbered.

All three of these prints will be available at a random time today, so you’ll have to stay tuned to Mondo’s Twitter feed to find out when you can rush to get them.

LOL: Billy Eichner Convinces People Seth Rogen Is Dead

Hot Movies Free

Comedian Billy Eichner is one of those entertainers that you either love or you hate. He’s boisterous, excitable, obnoxious, flamboyant, and I just love him for it. He enjoyed a stint on Parks and Recreation in the comedy show’s later seasons, but he’s probably best known for his show Billy on the Street. What started as a recurring Funny or Die series turned into a full fledged TV show on truTV, and one of the recent segments is one of the most awkwardly funny things you’ll watch today.

In a new episode of Billy on the Street, our loud host is telling people that Seth Rogen has died and asking them for their feelings on the matter. Seems pretty cruel, but what makes it all right is the Sausage Party and Neighbors star is on hand for every bit of it, disguised as one of Billy Eichner’s cameramen who trail him as he breaks the bad news. Like I said, it’s hilarious and weird.

Watch the Seth Rogen death prank on Billy on the Street after the jump.



The most awkward moments don’t even come from faking Seth Rogen’s death, but rather when a person gives their genuine, sometimes disparaging thoughts about him while he’s standing right here. One woman flat out says she thinks Billy Eichner is funny and doesn’t find Rogen funny at all before the sneaky reveal comes. But then there are some charming moments too when a couple of gay men from Australia get pranked, and one of them admits that he’s got a big crush on him.
