Examining 'Bone Tomahawk' and Its Place Among the Weirdest Westerns in Film History

Posted: 09 Oct 2015 09:00 PM PDT

We went blind into Bone Tomahawk, which is a pretty great way to see it. We knew it was a Western with Kurt Russell as the lead, but we didn’t know it would walk right up into “Weird Western” territory. If you’re sold on that alone, stop right now. I wouldn’t say what we’re about to get into is spoiler territory, exactly, seeing as how the marketing is putting the central conflict front and center - Kurt Russell leads a search and rescue into the lair of deadly “cannibals.” But the cannibals are troglodytes, aka cavemen. Yes, it’s a cowboys and cavemen movie. And it rocks.   The first thought we had as the film ended was that Joe R. Lansdale would probably really like this. Lansdale is an East Texas writer, known...

Comics on Film: From Jessica Jones to Iron Fist, Get to Know the Marvel Characters with Netflix Shows

Posted: 09 Oct 2015 07:30 PM PDT

If you're an observer of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, then I likely don't need to tell you that Marvel Studios is going to be significantly ratcheting up their series offerings on the Netflix streaming service through 2017, and likely beyond. With Daredevil hitting it big earlier this year and the highly anticipated Jessica Jones right around the corner, this week we thought it might be prudent to offer up some comics to read ahead of both the impending releases, as well as the series that are coming later down the road. So far, Marvel and Netflix have five different series at varying stages of production, with many of them slated to bring some of the comic book publisher's most well-loved characters into the realm of live-action for the very first time. We of...

The Last Sci-Fi Blog: The Complimentary and Contradictory Trilogy of 'The Martian,' 'Interstellar' and 'Gravity'

Posted: 09 Oct 2015 06:00 PM PDT

An astronaut is stranded in space. Time is running out. Resources are scarce. When things do look like they're about to get better, they find a way to get worse. In an environment where life cannot exist, our astronaut must rely on wits, intelligence, science, and maybe even a little faith to survive. This is the plot of Ridley Scott's The Martian, which is currently in theaters. It is also the plot of Christopher Nolan's Interstellar, which came out last year. It is also the plot of Alfonso Cuaron's Gravity, which arrived the year before that. Entirely by accident, a trilogy of movies ("The Totally F--ked Astronaut" trilogy) has formed before our very eyes in the past three years. Each movie is directed by a filmmaker renowned for their technical...

Why The Author of 'The Revenant' Can't Talk About 'The Revenant'

Posted: 09 Oct 2015 04:30 PM PDT

As we've seen with The Martian, it's often a benefit to have the author of a movie's source material around to do publicity. Especially when the book is based on a true story or packed with scientifically accurate detail. But a lot of authors aren't available or refuse to be. Many died long ago. Some aren't happy with the adaptation of their work. And at least one isn't allowed to comment. Michael Punke, author of the 2002 historical novel The Revenant which has been loosely turned into an upcoming movie by Alejandro G. Inarritu, is not involved in a legal battle over his text nor is he necessarily supposed to be anonymous for any reason. He's just a government official in a sensitive role and therefore, according to a 2014 profile in...

First 'Hail, Caesar!' Trailer Highlights the Coen Brother's Amazing Cast and Sense of Humor

Posted: 09 Oct 2015 03:00 PM PDT

The list of names that'll be in the credits for Hail, Caesar! is, to put it mildly, ridiculous. Josh Brolin George Clooney Scarlett Johansson Channing Tatum Ralph Fiennes Jonah Hill Tild Swinton David Krumholtz Frances McDormand Clancy Brown Fisher Stevens Robert Picardo Alden Ehrenreich Alex Karpovsky Dolph Lundgren Oh, and there'll be those Written and Directed by credits for Joel and Ethan Coen. We're sure we don't have to say anything else at this point. Either you're already sold by this project or you're not, and if you are not, we assume it's because you just arrived on this planet and you don't know who any of those people are and why seeing all of those names in the same place is so exciting. But should you happen to...

'X-Men: Apocalypse' Plot Details Reveal a New World Order

Posted: 09 Oct 2015 01:30 PM PDT

Filming on X-Men: Apocalypse, the next installment in the series, concluded during the summer, and since then things have been relatively quiet on the mutant front. This week, however, 20th Century Fox released a new synopsis that resets the story. As discovered by Coming Soon as part of a promotional partnership with popular candy M&M's (see photo below), the synopsis lays the groundwork for the conclusion of a trilogy that began with X-Men: First Class and continued with X-Men: Days of Future Past: “Since the dawn of civilization, he was worshiped as a god. Apocalypse, the first and most powerful mutant from Marvel’s X-Men universe, amassed the powers of many other mutants, becoming immortal and invincible. "Upon awakening after thousands of years...

Movie News: Will Forte Updates 'MacGruber' Sequel: Not If, But When

Posted: 09 Oct 2015 12:00 PM PDT

MacGruber: Asked about the possibility of a sequel to his beloved 2010 comedy MacGruber, Will Forte says, "It's not a question of if but when." He's currently busy producing and starring in his TV sitcom The Last Man on Earth. After that wraps next February, if he has "a little bit of time," he'd like to get together with co-writers Jorma Taccone and John Solomon and "start banging it out." It's still early in the process, though, since the trio has not yet completed even an outline for a prospective script. [EW.com]   John Williams: Five-time Academy Award winner John Williams will be the first composer to receive the AFI Life Achievement Award. It will be presented at a gala tribute on June 9, 2016. Williams is probably...
