Could Indy actually kill Darth Vader? No. But this itty-bitty short film by Patrick Boivin pleases my geeky, stop motion animation-loving heart to its very core all the same.
Hit the jump to see Vader get schooled by Albert Einstein and Jack Torrance.

I realize now that this title is a little vague. I assure you that George Lucas is not attempting to open an art museum just for things he has painted or drawn, rather he’s looking to found an art museum full of art that he owns. That includes illustrators like Maxfield Parrish, Norman Rockwell, N.C. Wyeth and yes, indeed, plenty of design art and props from the Star Wars movies.

Jan von Hollenben’s photography, while painstakingly constructed with no Photoshop allowed, certainly seems worth the time. When do we get our turn?

We previously ran ben6835′s mashup of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and René Magritte‘s surrealist self-portrait “The Son of Man,” which originally featured the artist’s face covered by an apple. Except when it’s TMNT Leonardo’s face is covered by a slice of pizza, because when did the Turtles ever eat healthy? Well it turns out that ben6835 has done a whole series of these, featuring Alien‘s Xenomorph, Indiana Jones, Hellboy, and more. Check ‘em out after the jump.

I have to admit, I frequently find Honest Trailers to just be too nitpicky, but not in this case.

Man, Harrison Ford sure does jet-set around a lot in his movies. Well, in the Star Wars and Indiana Jones trilogies, anyways. (There was no fourth Indiana Jones. I don’t want to hear it.) Artist Andrew Degraff gives us a better idea of how much travel famous characters rack up with his map versions of the aforementioned trilogies, plus The Goonies, North by Northwest, and Shaun of the Dead. They’re brilliantly designed, and I love them even if they make me feel kinda bad that the most traveling I ever do is home for the holidays and back.

Late last week, we brought you a mystery straight out of Indiana Jones lore. An extremely detailed replica diary from Raiders of the Lost Ark was delivered to the University of Chicago addressed to Henry Walton Jones Jr., aka Indiana Jones. The school, and internet at large, speculated as to its origins but we’ve got the official answer. And it’s much more interesting than we expected.

The Bottleneck Gallery in Brooklyn, NY recently held a show called “The Gang Is All Here,” which featured some great teams from pop-culture. Next up is “Alternate Ending,” where artists take some of our favorite films and either change the ending or add a scene to completely alter the ending. Over 50 artists will take part in the new show, which is co-curated with Silver Screen Society and opens this Friday at the gallery. Works that don’t sell out at the opening will go on sale December 15 at 12pm eastern. Take a look.
