The 10 Greatest 'Mad Max' Moments

Posted: 13 May 2015 11:00 PM PDT

Mad Max: Fury Road arrives in theaters this week and it is, by all accounts, spectacular. But that's expected. It's only the fourth film in a series built on spectacular moments. Director George Miller is a mastermind of cinematic chaos and surely his years away from the wasteland have made him hungry to impress us all over again. And he's certainly impressed us before! After rewatching Mad Max, The Road Warrior, and Max Max Beyond Thunderdome, we walked away with even more respect for this crazy series...and a list of the 10 best moments from the first three movies.   10. Beyond Thunderdome: The Thunderdome Showdown You'll be hard-pressed to find many people who think Beyond Thunderdome is a superior film to Mad Max and The Road Warrior, but...

'X-Men' Spin-Off Movie 'The New Mutants' Is Happening And Already Has a Director

Posted: 13 May 2015 08:35 PM PDT

The X-Men franchise was the first of the major superhero movies to try and expand its universe by spinning off characters into their own movies, but the reception to X-Men Origins: Wolverine put the breaks on other origin movies, like Magneto. The X-Men movies have all grown stronger since then, though, both with audiences and critics, and so now Fox is trying to get back into the spin-off business. The studio also wants to stay in the Josh Boone business, seeing as the director made a pretty penny for them with 2014's surprise hit The Fault in Our Stars, and have hired him to start a spin-off franchise with The New Mutants. It's unclear at this stage specifically which New Mutants roster will be utilized in this movie, as there are several in the comics, but as the...

'The Tribe' Trailer Prepares You For a Grueling, One-of-a-Kind Movie Experience

Posted: 13 May 2015 05:30 PM PDT

The Tribe is unlike any movie you've ever seen. That's not hyperbole, and that's not us trying to prepare you for the greatest movie ever made, either. All we're saying is that The Tribe is, to put it simply, truly unique. So what makes it so unique? The Tribe has no dialogue, no music, and a minimalist sound design. Why? Because the entire film takes place at a Ukranian school for the deaf. And yes, the characters do use Ukranian sign language throughout the movie, but there are no subtitles to explain what they're talking about. You're probably thinking that sounds like the most arthouse-y arthouse movie ever made, and you wouldn't be entirely wrong, but that's also kind of the point. The Tribe is essentially an experimental film that...

Movie News: 'Selma' Director Touted for 'Black Panther' or 'Captain Marvel'; New 'The Fugitive' On Its Way

Posted: 13 May 2015 12:00 PM PDT

Marvel: Ava Duvernay, who directed the Academy Award-nominated drama Selma (above), is under consideration by Marvel to helm "one of its diverse superhero movies," including Black Panther or Captain Marvel. The former title is reported to be more likely, since it has a slightly earlier release date of July 6, 2018; Chadwick Boseman is set to star as the titular hero. Marvel is looking at other directors as well, so it's not a done deal yet. [The Wrap]   The Fugitive: A new installment of The Fugitive is on its way. The 1960s TV series was transformed into an exciting action picture starring Harrison Ford as a doctor accused of murdering his wife before going on the run, with Tommy Lee Jones as a dogged U.S. Marshal in pursuit; Jones returned in a 1998...
