| Watch the Abandoned 'Blade Runner' Sequence That Will Be the Opening Scene of 'Blade Runner 2' Posted: 17 Nov 2015 10:00 PM PST Ridley Scott isn't actually directing Blade Runner 2 (he'll be too busy directing the sequel to another one of his movies), but he is producing it and was instrumental in bringing back Harrison Ford and getting new director Denis Villeneuve on board. His influence on the sci-fi sequel doesn't stop there, though. Apparently the new movie will actually use the original opening for his 1982 film. Normally we wouldn't be all that interested in sharing the opening scene of a movie that hasn't even begun filming yet, but this one is noteworthy because it was written 30+ years ago and never used. Scott even had the sequence storyboarded out, but they axed it before it ever went in front of cameras. Here's how the director described it when speaking recently at...

| Val Kilmer Confirms Iceman Will Return in 'Top Gun 2' Posted: 17 Nov 2015 09:00 PM PST Iceman may not play dangerously, but Val Kilmer does. He's just confirmed on Facebook he'll be returning for the long-promised Top Gun sequel, in spite of not reading the script first. What if it's not good? Oh wait, it's Top Gun 2, so it doesn't matter if it's good or bad. It's going to be huge either way. Presently, it's too soon to tell on our end, too, but we're also looking forward to it. Here's what we do know so far: Val Kilmer is indeed coming back In his Facebook post, Kilmer wrote: "I just got offered Top Gun 2 - not often you get to say 'yes' without reading the script ... Jerry Bruckheimer and Tom Cruise!!! 'Yes.' We will all miss Tony Scott, one of the kindest gentlemen I've ever met in the...

| 'Dazed and Confused' Spiritual Sequel, 'Everybody Wants Some,' to Open 2016 SXSW Film Festival Posted: 17 Nov 2015 07:30 PM PST Fans of Richard Linklater and his iconic dorm-room cult-favorite Dazed and Confused have been waiting a long time for Everybody Wants Some, deemed a sort of spiritual sequel to Dazed and Confused in that it tracks a group of kids on their first day of college in the '80s instead of their last day of high school in the '70s, a la Dazed. Now we know exactly how long we'll have to wait, as the 2016 SXSW Film Festival just announced Everybody Wants Some as its opening night film. The festival runs from March 11-19, while the film won't hit theaters till April 15. Inspired, of course, by the popular Van Halen song of the same name, Everybody Wants Some will chronicle the misadventures of a group of baseball players as they ready themselves for college in the 1980s...

| The 'Fast & Furious' Cinematic Universe Wants to Keep Growing With Spinoffs and Prequels Posted: 17 Nov 2015 04:30 PM PST Back in February of 2013, over two months before Fast & Furious 6 would even hit theaters, our own Erik Davis wrote an article titled Is the Fast & Furious Series Creating Its Own Marvel Universe for Bros? The actual movie totally confirmed his theory as it simultaneously brought in nearly every character from the franchise's past, introduced Jason Statham's new villain character and also revealed the true chronology of the franchise, retroactively making the third movie (the criminally underrated Tokyo Drift) into a sequel to the sixth movie. Now if there were still any doubt that Fast & Furious already has its own cinematic universe well underway, Vin Diesel has taken things one quarter-mile further by confirming that he and Universal...

| Here's One 'Star Wars: The Force Awakens' Character You Haven't Seen Yet Posted: 17 Nov 2015 01:30 PM PST One month from today many of us will be sitting down inside a packed movie theater full of giddy fans all jacked-up and itchin' to watch a brand new Star Wars movie on the big screen. Some may not have been alive the last time a new Star Wars movie was in theaters, and some may be continuing a tradition that dates all the way back to the day the very first Star Wars movie arrived in theaters back in 1977. Whatever your story is, embrace it and let the fact that we're only one month away sink in. Here's one The Force Awakens character you haven't seen yet...
