Movie Man
When film critic Will Pfeifer isn’t watching movies, he’s reading about movies, talking about movies, thinking about movies or dreaming about movies. Now he shares that unhealthy obsession with you. From Hollywood hits to Japanese obscurities, from Oscar night to the summer season, he’s got movies on the brain — and on this blog.

Here’s the newest poster for Quentin Tarantino’s World War II splatterfest INGLOURIOUS BASTERDS. Previous images were of the close-up variety, but in this bit of promotional art, we pull back a bit and see Brad Pitt in all his Nazi-killin’ glory. And say, what’s that he’s standing on?

Friday Morning Videos: CEMETERY JUNCTION trailer

Add comment July 10th, 2009

Normally, I’d be reluctant to post a teaser trailer for a movie that won’t even hit theaters until next year, especially when said trailer doesn’t feature a single image from the film itself. But because CEMETERY JUNCTION is the movie directorial debut of Ricky Gervais and Stephen Merchant, two of the funniest men on the planet (they’re the guys behind THE OFFICE and EXTRAS), I’ve got high hopes for this movie.

Plus, they have a great time making fun of Ralph Fienne’s non-Oscar win for SCHINDLER’S LIST.
