‘Star Wars’ fans have released a restored 35 mm print of the original film
A squad of serious serious Star Wars fans have released a high definition, restored 35 mm print of the original film. Does this sound like something that’s already been done to you? It did to me! However, apparently the difference lies in this restoration being done to a “fully intact version of the film to work with instead of having to piece together different segments from the original print”, which, oh, I didn’t know had been done. Neat!
‘Kingsman 2’ casts Julianne Moore as its villain
A lot of people were much more hype for the original Kingsman than me. However, I enjoyed it enough to be interested in a sequel, and I’m definitely interested in Julianne Moore playing the villain.
Ennio Morricone already picked to be scoring Quentin Tarantino’s next movie
Ennio Morricone has announced that he’s being brought back by Quentin Tarantino for the auteur’s next filmatic adventure. Morricone let slip the news while recounting a story about telling Tarantino he needs more advanced noticed when it comes to scoring a movie than he received for The Hateful Eight.
Confirmed: Kurt Russell in ‘Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2’
It’s been confirmed: Kurt Russell is in Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2. While it hasn’t been confirmed who is playing, I’m going to assume that it is none other than Star-Lord’s father. Since, you know, James Gunn said he wanted the actor for that exact role.
GameStop CEO: Sony’s VR Headset is dropping this fall
So, I can’t just close my eyes, embrace how old I feel, and successfully wish VR away. That’s what it’s looking like. I can’t wish away a lot of things: my overeating, pee boners in the car during traffic, and now apparently virtual reality.
Alas.
‘Jet Set Radio’ and ‘Golden Axe’ are currently free on Steam
Man. My kingdom for another Jet Set Radio. You may be asking, and I will tell you: my Kingdom is a collection of Pepsi Max cans, various Funk POP! collectibles, and three pairs of heavily-used underwear. It seems like a square deal, no? But for those of you looking to hold out in different ways, perhaps downloading Jet Set Radio for free on Steam.
‘Wolverine 3’ is going to be R-Rated, according to Fox
Deadpool has proven to Fox something which I took to be obvious: R-Rated superhero movies can make fucking bank. If the movies are good. With this (obvious) knowledge in hand, the company has decided to make the final Wolverine movie R-Rated. Christ. It’s about time. The fact that they’ve gotten away with not making his movies R-Rated is insane to me. This is a man who is most known for slaying all sorts of dudes, and going into beserker rages. So good. Good we finally get one, just as Jackman bows out of the role.
Hideo Kojima and Norman Reedus (‘The Walking Dead’) reunite; game collab back on?
Hideo Kojima, Guillermo del Toro, and Norman Reedus were set to fucking rock with Silent Hills. Then Konami decided firing their auteur and gaming legend was the way to do, Silent Hills died, and Norman Reedus went into the ether. But maybe, maybe a collaboration is back on.
