Some dude posted this on instructables.com. And like MacGyver, he was able to create this LCD projector using simple household items like a cornflake box, pringles chip container and credit card sized magnifier. This takes DIY to a whole other level.

So, how does Kevin Costner's oil filtering machine work?

Fake movie trailer becomes reality - Legendary to develop "Technotise"
This fake movie trailer entitled "Technotise Remake" actually got a couple of Hollywood producers a movie deal with Legendary Pictures to develop a live-action feature film based on the Serbian animated sci-fi film, "Technotise: Edit and I." Producer Scott Glassgold and Raymond Brothers hired Jaron Pitts, the man behind the popular fan-made trailer for "Green Lantern," to make a phony trailer for "Technotise." Using clips from "Resident Evil", "Minority Report," "Avatar" and other sci-fi movies, Pitts was able to create a trailer that gives viewers a sense of what a real "Technotise" movie would look like. And it worked. LA based production company, Legendary Pictures have given the movie pitch a thumbs up. Now, screenwriter Laeta Kalogridis (Shutter Island) will be writing the film's screenplay. Get the whole story here.
