Variety interviews creatives on why they love working with Netflix
People a stuntwoman has died on the set of Deadpool 2
Vanity Fair Anya Taylor-Joy is joining director Robert Eggers (The Witch) for his remake of silent horror classic Nosferatu. So happy they're reuniting but why remake a movie that's already been remade so spectacularly? (Werner Herzog's Nosferatu is something else!)

lots and lots more after the jump including Girls Trip, James Cameron, Dee Rees, Riz Ahmed, and a fun tidbit on mother!

Geeks of Color Girls Trip has pased the $100 million mark at the box office. Universal should get started on the sequel immediately
Film School Rejects reminds everyone that James Cameron is an amazing director despite his utterly obnoxious arrogance and obsession with his own Avatar and Terminator franchises

Deadline interviews the new president about his love for international cinema and what he found inspiring about the unfortunate envelope mixup at the Oscars last season

Exit Videos
Director Dee Rees (Pariah, Mudbound)  took home a Sundance Institute honor this weekend for her career and Riz Ahmed did a spoken word bit on The Tonight Show. You should watch both righteously fiery speeches

P.S. Please note that on the French poster for mother! Javier Bardem's No Country for Old Men Oscar has been upgraded to a Best Actor trophy from Supporting. Hee!

Hmm, I saw that Javier remark worded exactly the same elsewhere.... on my website, actually.

That Vardalos idea is really interesting, and sort of makes me think that broadcast television is kind of ridiculous and deserves its own grave. This is such a good idea for a series, and yet I'm willing to guarantee they'd turn it down for yet another show about cops, lawyers, or doctors.

Now that is a great poster- yes why remake F W Murnau's "Nosferatu" (1922)?

August 15, 2017 | Unregistered CommenterJaragon

Why give Nosferatu another spin? Because 'The Witch ' was all kinds of awesome and Eggers had earned the right to do so, if any permission was needed anyway. I will go on adding Herzog's remake had amazing faces and a superior soundtrack and that was it.

Thank goodness for Riz Ahmed and Dee Rees existing in this world.

Aaron Carter is a has-been that announced his bisexuality for attention while making excuses about his drug use and such. Fuck that little shit.

August 15, 2017 | Unregistered Commenterthevoid99

thevoid99: Why are you so angry at Aaron Carter? What's he ever done to you? "Fuck that little shit" - really?

No mention of Todd Haynes doing a velvet underground doc. I'm disappointed. Maybe I'm the only one here that's excited about this. One of my favorite directors doing a doc about one of my favorite bands and they're a perfect match for each other.
