Netflix nabs 'The Discovery' sci-fi film, plans cinema release
Netflix continues to pad its streaming library, and this time it's adding another indie film. The Discovery, directed by Charlie McDowell, takes place two years after humans proved the afterlife is a real thing and millions are committing suicide in an attempt to start fresh. The movies stars Rooney Mara (The Girl with The Dragon Tattoo), Robert Redford and Jason Segel (How I Met Your Mother, Forgetting Sarah Marshall). Redford's character makes the discovery while Segel plays his son with Mara as the younger's love interest.
Screen Grabs: Guitar Hero on HIMYM, pants not required
Screen grabs chronicles the uses (and misuses) of real-world gadgets in today's movies and TV. Send in your sightings (with screen grab!) to screengrabs at engadget dt com. Everybody knows us bloggers are a bunch of pantsless hooligans, but a lesser known fact is that Guitar Hero: Aerosmith comes with a new pants-free mode, as demonstrated in a lengthly sequence on this week's episode of How I Met Your Mother. Problem is, Jason Segel -- who we most fondly remember as Nick the drummer from Freaks and Geeks -- likely wouldn't be caught dead playing Aerosmith on the guitar, so stop trying to mess with our heads CBS. We know the truth.[Thanks, Jeff]
