We’ve written about the Back to the Future and Silence of the Lambs minimates in past Cool Stuff columns. Diamond Select is working to transform other classic movies to little lego figure sized form. Up next is the classic spaghetti western A Fistful of Dollars.
Anyone that knows me, knows I’m not a fan of westerns. [...]

You have to give Paramount Vantage credit. They’ve decided to embrace the cult popularity of the “I Drink Your Milkshake” quote from Paul Thomas Anderson’s There Will Be Blood. Today I had to sign for a couriered letter. The return address said nothing more than the THERE WILL BE BLOOD logo.
I open up the letter [...]

Oh yes, my first Quentin Tarantino post here on the great Slash. Warning: I am not going to get to the point. There are some directors I still cannot wait to interview. Not Tarantino. Like Michael Jordan, a living Bobby Fisher, Gregory Isaacs, J.D. Salinger, the Rza, or my favorite ex gal, I’d [...]

Numerous sites are reporting that the following poster is A.) new; B.) significant proof that Robert Rodriguez’s straight-to-DVD Machete movie is moving forward or completed; C.) proof that, in hindsight, Grindhouse was the scuzzy masterpiece promised to us; D.) wall-worthy.

“You mean, that boy from The Goonies? Yippie-ki-yay!”
Wowzers. Oliver Stone had hinted at making a feature on the life of the current American president when he did press for the Alexander Director’s Cut, but who knew it’d come together this quick? Filming could begin as soon as April for the George W. Bush biopic, brilliantly [...]

[slurp]” is chugging along to become pop culture’s new “…with fava beans and a nice chianti [slurp],” and nothing says “crossover art house hit” like a precocious YouTube mash-up. Kevin Kunze, presumably of the University of San Francisco, has set up DDL on a blind date [...]

I flew back from the junket-filled weekend in Los Angeles to attend a super special screening of Paul Thomas Anderson’s There Will Be Blood at the famous Castro Theater in San Francisco. There were no advance ticket sales, only cash at the door, with the proceeds going to charity. One fan waited in line from [...]

And who said the Western wasn’t making a comeback? The writing team behind Pirates of the Caribbean (yes, the whole series, not just the first movie) have reteamed with super-producer Jerry Bruckheimer for The Lone Ranger.
Adapted from the 1930’s radio show, which later became a popular live-action television show in the 1950’s. The Lone Ranger [...]

Paul Thomas Anderson’s There Will Be Blood premiered as a super secret film at Fantastic Fest in Austin Texas this week, and most people are calling it the best movie of both the year and Anderson’s career. We weren’t there to see the film itself (you can check out a trailer at this link), so [...]
