3:10 to Yuma (2007)
I just finished watching 3:10 to Yuma for the 5th time in the last few months and can't get enough of it. This remake western hits all of the right notes for me and I feel like it even though it was well received by most, it is still underrated and should go down as one of the best westerns of all time.The performances...

Paul Dano is amazing in Prisoners.
I saw this once a few years ago and remember it being really heavy but also very well done. I wanted to give it another look since we’re about to see Paul Dano play the Riddler, and the glimpses we’ve seen of him in the promotional material have really reminded me of his look in this.I just finished my rewatch and two...
Can bad acting ever work for a movie?
I recently rewatched The Godfather. The actor who plays Luca Brasi is fine, but when he’s meeting Don Corleone to congratulate him, he’s clearly acting badly. However, within the context of how it’s framed in the movie (he’s nervous about the meeting and rehearses his speech) it ends up working for the movie.So my question...
How much love is there for The movie The ‘Burbs?
Oh man is this a good movie! It’s one of my favorite Tom Hanks movies, and he is really funny in it. The performances from Tom Hanks, Carrie Fisher, Bruce Dern, Rick Ducommun (RIP), Corey Feldman, and Henry Gibson are so good, and Joe Dante did a great job directing this horror/comedy!I saw The ‘Burbs in theaters way...
I’m Kyle Buchanan, author of the book “Blood, Sweat ＆ Chrome: The Wild and True Story of Mad Max: Fury Road.” I also cover Oscar season for the New York Times. AMA!
Hey there, Reddit. My new book is an oral history of George Miller’s action masterpiece “Mad Max: Fury Road,” out today (2/22). The making of the movie was every bit as eye-popping as what they put onscreen, and I convinced over 130 key players — including Miller and stars Charlize Theron and Tom Hardy — to speak candidly...
What's your favorite example of a book explicitly describing a character as ugly but the film adaptation still casting a hot actor?
Some favorites of mine:-Gurney Halleck, described in Dune as "an ugly lump of a man." Played in the movie by Josh Brolin-Bill Denbrough, described in It as a balding man with a frumpy ponytail and thick glasses. Played in the film by James McAvoy-Brienne of Tarth, introduced in A Clash of Kings by the POV character observing...
Robert Eggers and Anya Taylor-Joy Still Planning Nosferatu Remake
Here's an interesting tidbit about a project that I thought was dead, including that Taylor-Joy apparently won't be the vampire. If it wasn't for the Werner Herzog remake, this would seem like blasphemy, but as we've already gotten one superb remake, it's genuinely intriguing to consider what the filmmaker of The Lighthouse...
Going to the Cinema Alone Review
I went to the movies alone for the first time yesterday, I was nervous and a bit anxious about it, but it turned out to be brilliant. You don’t have to worry about others expectations of the movie, and it’s literally an activity where you’re “supposed” to not talk or socialize. If you’re thinking about doing this, this...
Frankie Muniz just shared my screenplay page for "Agent Cody Banks 3: Aging Cody Banks"
I like to write at least one screenplay page a day to keep myself fresh, even if I do not have a writing-in-progress, so I will often write a page for a sequel or spin-off to a movie I love that will never be made as a script that will never be finished. It is a fun exercise and it lets me imagine what a Princess Diaries/Legally...
Movie theatres should note the last date they’ll be showing a film.
I like to see a lot of movies - sometimes I only manage one a week but it’s often 2-3, occasionally more. I like taking a chance on as much as possible!The big issue I come up against is that while blockbusters are reliably showing for months on end, smaller or less popular films will sometimes be gone in two weeks. When...
