So, the Oscar nominations are here. I’m not trying to sound too cool, but I don’t really care. I barely pay attention the awards in the groups that I vote for, and as usual, the Academy Awards don’t share my particular taste. For the most part, the nominees are safe and expected and what they are.

'Once Upon A Time In Hollywood' (2019) Movie Review
On their own, I like all—okay, most—of the pieces of Quentin Tarantino’s latest opus of revisionist history/love letter to a golden age of movies, Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Individual characters, scenes, and moments stand out, and all his hallmarks are present and accounted for. The soundtrack kills, whip-cracking dialogue abounds, and harsh violence lurks just beyond the surface. Unfortunately, these pieces never cohere in any meaningful way and the whole thing feels empty and meandering, a collection of moments more than a cohesive being.

Quentin Tarantino's 'The Hateful Eight' Gets A Packed New Trailer
Quentin Tarantino may be engaged in an epic war of words
(and thinly veiled threats) with police departments across the country, but
while that situation spins steadily out of control, let’s not forget that
The Hateful Eight is on the way. A new Tarantino movie is
always worth getting excited about, and I’ll take a gritty, violent western any
day of the week, so when the two come together, goddamn. And just in case you
can’t wait, there’s a new trailer to check out.

'The Hateful Eight' Trailer: Quentin Tarantino's Latest Western Looks Grim And Badass
Any time Quentin Tarantino drops a new movie, it’s going to
be a big deal. That much is a given. When it’s a western with a stacked cast,
like his upcoming The Hateful Eight, well, to say we’re
excited is an understatement. We’ve seen photos and random whatnots from the
film, but now we have our first trailer, and it looks like a damn fine time.

Quentin Tarantino’s upcoming The Hateful Eight
has a lot to be excited about. First off, it’s a Tarantino movie, which are
always an event; it’s also a western, and we’re stoked to see what he brings to
the genre, especially after getting his feet wet with Django
Unchained; and, of course, he’s put together a cast that makes us
jump up and down and clap our hands with glee. And now, thanks to EW, we’ve got
a ton of new images that reveal just how grizzled and tore up these badasses
are.

'Django Unchained' Movie Review
Sergio Corbucci’s 1966 spaghetti western, “Django”, is
legendary as the film that launched 100 unofficial sequels. This is obvious
hyperbole and urban legend—to date only 30-something are accounted for—but it
still spawned a crap load of badass westerns. These movies run the gamut from
trying to recreate the grim tone and setting of the original, to offerings like
“Sukiyaki Western Django”, Takeshi Miike’s manic mod take on two feuding
frontier clans.
