A new film from Quentin Tarantino is never anything short of an event. For his eighth film, The Hateful Eight, he insisted on it being shot in 65mm using Ultra Panavision then arranged with the Weinstein Company to go back in time and release a roadshow version of the film. That is, the 70mm version would play in select theaters and become a Must See film.

The movie is wonderfully cast and beautifully shot with award-winning music from Ennio Morricone. But this is the first time I can say with genuine feeling that I was bored to tears.

Eight people find themselves waiting out a blizzard in an out of the way location, Minnie’s Haberdashery, and no one is as they appear which we learn over the course of two and a half tedious hours. While in some ways this is a thematic sequel to the far superior Django Unchained,...

Did Quentin Tarantino stumble this time out? His tale of western killers sharing a snowbound cabin builds almost zero suspense, and the verbal excess and violent grossness lack Tarantino's usual clever, wickedly funny edge. And 70mm cooped up in a dim interior? It's A Long Day's Journey into Lincoln Logs. Totally dig Jennifer Jason Leigh and Ennio Morricone, though.

With a filmography that spans nearly 40 years, Demi&#225n Bichir has had more than his fair share of ups and downs throughout his career. In the mid-80s, he moved to New York and then Los Angeles to pursue his craft, but he was eventually drawn back to Mexico, where he became one of his home country's biggest box office stars. He won an Ariel Award, the Mexican equivalent of an Oscar, for his role in 'Til Death in 1994, and his 1999 blockbuster Sex, Shame and Tears became the highest-grossing movie in the country's history. While he was a bona fide star in Mexico, he would only gain the attention of American audiences nearly a decade later

His portrayal of Cuban dictator Fidel Castro in 2008's Che (Part 1) and Che (Part 2) helped put Demi&#225n Bichir on one Hollywood map, as well as his portrayal of Tijuana mayor/drug kingpin Esteban Reyes on Showtime's Weeds.

The Hateful Eight is coming home on Digital HD and Blu-ray!

Quentin Tarantino’s The Hateful Eight arrives on Digital HD March 15 and Blu-ray™ Combo Pack, DVD and On Demand March 29 from Anchor Bay. The eighth film, written and directed by Quentin Tarantino, stars Kurt Russell, Samuel L. Jackson, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Tim Roth and Walton Goggins in a western that Richard Roeper of The Chicago Sun-Times called “one of the best movies of the year.”

Anchor Bay Entertainment and The Weinstein Company are proud to present the home entertainment release of the eighth film by two-time Academy Award® winner Quentin Tarantino (Django Unchained, Pulp Fiction). Shot entirely on 70mm and featuring a Golden Globe® and BAFTA® award-winning score by Oscar® winner Ennio Morricone (Bugsy, The Mission) The Hateful Eight “absolutely delivers on the sheer moment-to-moment pleasures fans have come to expect -- from dynamite dialogue to powder-keg confrontations,...

Ennio Morricone accepts an Honorary Academy Award during the 79th Annual Academy Awards at the Kodak Theatre in Hollywood, CA, on Sunday, February 25, 2007.

The Weinstein Company has released a 7-minute video from the actual recording session of L’Ultima Diligenza per Red Rock (versione integrale) from The Hateful Eight.

Featuring the legendary composer, Ennio Morricone, The Hateful Eight is nominated for 3 Academy Awards this year, including Best Original Score.

In The Hateful Eight, set six or eight or twelve years after the Civil War, a stagecoach hurtles through the wintry Wyoming landscape. The passengers, bounty hunter John Ruth (Kurt Russell) and his fugitive Daisy Domergue (Jennifer Jason Leigh), race towards the town of Red Rock where Ruth, known in these parts as “The Hangman,” will bring Domergue to justice. Along the road, they encounter two strangers: Major Marquis Warren (Samuel L. Jackson), a black former union soldier turned infamous bounty hunter,...

Just in case you didn’t get enough hatefulness from these eight characters during the three hours and seven minutes they were on screen, Neca has revealed their line of Hateful Eight retro clothed action figures. Each figure stands 8 inches, is fully articulated, comes with character specific accessories, and is inspired by the cool toy lines from the 1970s. Neca is promising to do only one production run of 3000 each, so if you want one, you’d better jump on them fast. I’ve included more information from the manufacturer and photos below. Be super sure to check out the disclaimer at the bottom, because it’s my favorite part.

The figures run from $34.99 to $44.99, and you can pre-order six of the eight right here. (I don't know why the other two aren't available. Perhaps they hit their pre-order quota.)

For Quentin Tarantino’s eighth movie, we have a special treat for fans!

Inexcusably self-indulgent. Tarantino gratifies his enormous self-love and his amusement at his own genius at the expense of all else. I’m “biast” (pro): loved Tarantino’s last two films…

I’m “biast” (con): …but really hate some of his films, too

(what is this about? see my critic’s minifesto)

Damn. So after the marvels of Inglourious Basterds and Django Unchained, Quentin Tarantino has swung back to the Kill Bill style of filmmaking, which I described in my review of Basterds as a cinematic “circle jerk in which he and his fans get off on one another and how clever they all are to be such rapacious film geeks.” With the inexcusably self-indulgent The Hateful Eight, Tarantino has returned to the gratification of his enormous self-love and his amusement at his own genius at the expense of all else.

There are no characters to like in Eight.

With all of the box office records Star Wars: The Force Awakens has broken so far, many are expecting this sci-fi adventure to continue dominating its competition well into the month of January. The final weekend of the year didn't provide much competition for director J.J. Abrams' blockbuster, with The Hateful Eight expanding nationwide, but no other movies opening in wide release. As predicted, Star Wars: The Force Awakens retained the top spot for a third weekend in a row, with an estimated $88.3 million.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens broke yet another box office record, shattering Avatar's third weekend record of $68.4 million. Avatar still holds the all-time records for highest domestic tally ($760.5 million) and worldwide gross ($2.7 billion), but the domestic mark could very well fall this week. Star Wars: The Force Awakens has earned $740.2 million domestically, and $1.51 billion worldwide. While it's certainly feasible that Star Wars: The Force Awakens...

Director Quentin Tarantino’s The Hateful Eight is now playing in select theaters in “glorious 70mm” (including St. Louis) and will open nationwide on December 31, 2015.

Of this ensemble cast, which includes Samuel L. Jackson, Kurt Russell, Walton Goggins, Demian Bichir, Tim Roth, Michael Madsen, Bruce Dern and Channing Tatum, the one standout is the performance by Jennifer Jason Leigh.

Leigh comments on her character’s place among the eight: “Daisy is a gutsy girl, and she’s a bit of an animal in her own way. But all of these people have their values, and they all have their soft spots.”

“Jennifer Jason Leigh is fearless,” producer Stacey Sher says. “She’ll go anywhere, she’ll try anything, she’ll push it all the way, and as a result her character is constantly surprising throughout the entire journey.”

Chicago – Story-wise, there is not much difference in “The Hateful Eight” – regarding themes and violence – that writer/director Quentin Tarantino hasn’t explored before. But it is also an outrageous and big western tale, and it’s presented in some theaters in a huge 70mm screen format.

Rating: 3.5/5.0

It is special that Qt has the power and energy to re-introduce this old style movie format to modern audiences, and he matches the length and breadth of some of those epic stories of the past (think “How the West was Won combined with “Pulp Fiction”). What he doesn’t do is tap anything new in his story telling. There is Samuel L. Jackson again, out for a mysterious type of revenge. Peppered in the dialogue is the n-word, yet again, ad nauseam. But at least it’s better and more expressive than “Django Unchained,” which I didn’t like. And if you like Django,...

For the last couple of decades film fans have been bemoaning the lack of flicks set in the old wild West. Many even remarked that the “horse opera” or “oater” was a dead genre, that its heydays were nearly twenty five years ago (Clint Eastwood’s Unforgiven took Oscar gold in 1992). At the end of 2015, the corpse of the Western, seems to have been revived. And who are the “mad scientists”, well “mad movie makers” perhaps, shocking this corpse back to life via their electrifying talents? Well, Oscar winner Alejandro Inarritu, fresh off his Birdman triumph, puts Leonardo DiCaprio through the wringer (emotional and physical) in The Revenant, which we’ll discuss in length when it gallops into theatres in a couple of weeks. The film that’s out on Christmas Day (in a very special limited release) comes from the ultimate movie fanatic turned film maker Quentin Tarantino. Now...

As promised, I’m back writing again about filmmaker Quentin Tarantino’s eighth cinematic outing this week. Whenever a new movie of his opens, it’s really an event, so this is no exception. Of late, Tarantino has been getting the attention of the Academy, so this is definitely a high profile release. Buzz had been steadily building for months now, with folks especially excited for the 70mm roadshow version being unveiled in select theaters. I’ve seen and dug the flick a great deal, so it’s a pleasure to be able to speak more about how good this film is. I praised Bruce Dern’s work in it a few days ago, but now I’m gushing over the whole thing, as well as speculating about its Oscar prospects. Once again, this is Tarantino’s eight film, centering on a group of less than savory characters convening on a single location,...

The Hateful Eight

Written and directed by Quentin Tarantino

U.S.A., 2015

Here we go again. 3 years, literally to the day, after Quentin Tarantino dabbled in the western genre with Django Unchained, he returns for another Christmas Day serving of violent, western-influenced mayhem in the shape of The Hateful Eight. Lavishly produced and advertised, with a lot of hoopla surrounding the fact that it was shot using 70mm film, the movie arrives at an atypical moment during the holiday season, inviting those less interested in good dinosaurs, inspirational tales of ragtag boxers, and mystical lightsaber duels to spend three hours in a desolate inn with no less than eight characters that fit the title’s bill marvelously. The question remains: can a hateful eight make for a happy time?

Set shortly after the American Civil War, Tarantino’s latest is rooted in a Wyoming winter wonderland. A storm is fast...

(This is a review of the roadshow version of The Hateful Eight, which will be screening in true 70Mm in about 50 theaters across the country during the first two weeks after the movie’s release on Christmas Day. The same roadshow version will also screen in other venues digitally rather than on film. Before the roadshow engagement ends, a slightly shortened version, sans overture and intermission, will go into general release on December 31, so if you’re interested in seeing the roadshow version—and if you can, you should see it—read your newspaper or Internet theater listings carefully.)

**********************************************

Once upon a time, not so very long ago, a friend and I had a friendly discussion online about what it was that made a story a “western.” It seemed to him that, beyond the usual interchangeable trappings of the genre-- six-shooters, ruthless bad guys, conflicted lawmen, a showdown on Main Street...

As much as any mainstream film consumer has an opinion, positive or negative, about "Star Wars," it is likely that they also have an opinion, positive or negative, about Quentin Tarantino, as big a brand as any working filmmaker. At this point in his career, he's the reason I go to the theater. I don't care what the subject matter is, who's in it, or when it's released. I will go see any movie Quentin makes, no matter what, because he's earned that at this point. When he makes a film, he does it with a voice and an attitude and a style that is clearly and unmistakably his, and by now, if you're even remotely interested in his movies, you have a pretty good idea what sort of thing you're in for when you go to see "The Hateful Eight." In what seems very fitting in a year where...

Quentin Tarantino’s love of genre cinema manifests itself in retention and expansion: while he understands that the homaged works were often built to hit a base instinct in their viewer, the respect he extends towards them is part and parcel of his desire to provide more, more, and more, to illustrate that these extreme expressions can and very well should be masks for genuine profundity. His eighth feature, The Hateful Eight, embraces the dime-store whodunit western on its surface without ever stumbling in its path to becoming a major exercise of Tarantino’s cinematic, cultural, and historical vocabulary. Moreover, limiting himself and the team of collaborators to a compact (albeit three-hour-long) tale serves as something of a provocation — a continually shifting Rorschach test for how fans and detractors alike measure the value (supposed or assumed) of his oeuvre.

Whereas the writer-director has often liked to begin with a bang,...

While racing toward the town of Red Rock in post-Civil War Wyoming, bounty hunter John "The Hangman" Ruth (Kurt Russell) and his fugitive prisoner (Jennifer Jason Leigh) encounter another bounty hunter (Samuel L. Jackson) and a man who claims to be a sheriff. Hoping to find shelter from a blizzard, the group travels to a stagecoach stopover located on a mountain pass. Greeted there by four strangers, the eight travelers soon learn that they may not make it to their destination after all.

Let me start by saying that The Hateful Eight is arguably my favorite Tarantino movie. Quentin Tarantino's 8th film starts with a four minute overture. This movie was filmed with 70 mm on Ultra Panavision 70. To the causal viewer, this way of filming will just look like a great widescreen shot. Tarantino puts Wyoming on beautiful display. After the overture we get several long looks at mountainside covered snow.

As a longtime fan of the western genre and Quentin Tarantino's work, The Hateful Eight was a movie that I was looking forward to seeing. On top of that, it was shot in 70mm, and until this movie I had never seen a movie projected in 70mm on the big screen before, and that alone was an awesome first-time experience for me.

My experience of seeing The Hateful Eight was like being transported back in time. It was probably a mixture of the old theater that I watched the film in, the western story, the style of the film, and the fact that I was actually watching the film in 70mm projection. It has been so long since I’ve seen a movie in any kind of projection other than digital. Adding to the experience was the fact that the movie started out with an overture and even had...

Seven of The Hateful Eight joined Quentin Tarantino for a press conference in New York - Bruce Dern (General Sandy Smithers), Tim Roth (Oswaldo Mobray), Demian Bichir (Bob), Michael Madsen (Joe Gage), Kurt Russell (John Ruth), Jennifer Jason Leigh (Daisy Domergue) and Walton Goggins (Chris Mannix). Samuel L. Jackson (Major Marquis Warren) was absent.

During and after the press conference, I brought up Sam Shepard's God Of Hell to Roth and Bertolt Brecht's Pirate Jenny to Tarantino. Earlier, Quentin strolled by as I was getting coffee in the Waldorf Astoria Starlight Roof. He stopped to chat about his costume designer Courtney Hoffman, who was Christoph Waltz's personal costumer in Django Unchained. When I inquired about the mini-pompoms dangling from the brim of the coachman's hat, he beamed. "The pompoms were my idea,...

Quentin Tarantino may only have two films left in the tank, but that has in no way quelled excitement for his upcoming – and, incidentally, eight – feature film, The Hateful Eight.

Barreling down on its much-touted Christmas Day roadshow release, where the director’s latest will be broadcast via the old-school format of Ultra Panavision 70mm. Showcasing the icy hills of Wyoming in all of their spine-chilling glory, The Hateful Eight is as much about the environments as it is the titular ensemble of bounty hunters.

Make no mistake, though, with cracking dialogue and a gleeful dose of violence, early trailers – and indeed reviews – indicate that this is Tarantino revelling in a style he has become defined for, though whether The Hateful Eight can emulate the success of Django Unchained will be told in time.

Tarantino, Jackson and Russell will walk the red carpet in Sydney on January 13 at Event Cinemas George Street for the Australian premiere of the film in 70mm.

They will also conduct a press junket on January 14 and a Q and A screening at the Cremorne Orpheum in 70mm before heading to Melbourne for a Q and screening at Village Cinemas Rivoli in 70mm on January 17.

Now that the first reviews are beginning to pour in along with early impressions of the film’s 70mm roadshow showcase, Quentin Tarantino’s The Hateful Eight is imminent, and to stoke excitement The Weinstein Company has today debuted an array of clips for the ultra-stylish Western.

Touting sly one-liners, violence and a cast of pantomime villains, the latest batch of footage trumpets just about every facet of Tarantino’s directing style that we’ve grown to love, though those who wish to go into theaters with a relatively blank slate ought to avoid watching every clip in fear of spoiling the surprise. Besides, the director has painstakingly captured the icy Wyoming landscapes for a 70mm release, meaning that the fruits of Tarantino’s labor won’t really shine unless viewed on the silver screen.

Over the weekend, a special screening of The Hateful Eight was held at the Director's Guild of America in Los Angeles, which was followed by a Q&A with several of the cast members. Today we not only have the full 30-minute Q&A session, but The Weinstein Company has also provided us with a new Ensemble featurette from director Quentin Tarantino's Western. Ironically, Quentin Tarantino himself isn't present at the DGA Q&A, but cast members Samuel L. Jackson, Kurt Russell, Jennifer Jason Leigh, Walton Goggins, Tim Roth and Bruce Dern shed new light on the production.

Later this month, Quentin Tarantino’s highly anticipated western, The Hateful Eight, will be released in theaters. I’ve already seen it, but I can’t tell you what I thought of it yet. I will tell you, though, that you have to watch it in 70mm projection if you can! It will make all the difference in the world. I already have a review written and ready to go, and I’ll be able to post it on December 21st, so keep a lookout for that.

In the meantime, we've got a lot stuff for you to watch! Below you'll find eight clips that have been released for the film that shows you eight minutes of footage from the film.

The Weinstein Company has released a brand new, seven plus minute featurette for their highly anticipated film, The Hateful Eight, written and directed by Quentin Tarantino.

The Hateful Eight will have a 70 mm roadshow release in select theaters starting on Christmas Day.

On Christmas Day, director Quentin Tarantino will roll out his eighth feature film, The Hateful Eight, in a limited "roadshow" presentation in 70mm. Fans will have two weeks to see this revenge Western in 70mm, before it debuts nationwide with digital projection on January 8. Fandango has released a seven-minute featurette that explains the importance of this 70mm presentation, and offers some history on the roadshow format, which hasn't been used for years.

One advantage of seeing the 70 mm roadshow is fans will get a longer cut of the movie than they'd see in the nationwide release. Quentin Tarantino revealed last month that the 70mm version will include six minutes of extra footage, a trademark of classic roadshow presentations such as Gone With the Wind, Ben-Hur and many more. We also hear from Samuel L. Jackson, who explains that the 70mm presentation gives viewers an image that is twice as large as a traditional movie.

Channeling the spirit of Hollywood’s Golden Age, The Weinstein Company will venture down the road less travelled later this year with the release of Quentin Tarantino’s The Hateful Eight.

Taking full advantage of the 70mm format, the bounty hunter drama will see an initial release on Christmas Day before expanding to normal theaters in the new year. In order to get moviegoers up to speed, today heralds the release of a new featurette for The Hateful Eight, starring the likes of Samuel L. Jackson, Kurt Russell and Tarantino himself as they each outline the film’s grand ambitions.

In essence, it’s a short and sweet history lesson about the legacy of the 70mm format which, as Russell candidly reveals, took some time getting used to as an actor. Shot using 65mm cameras and later projected in 70, it’s an approach that allows for a cinematic experience almost...

With the 70mm roadshow release officially clocking in at 187 minutes (including a 12-minute intermission) for Quentin Tarantino‘s The Hateful Eight, you’ll certainly want to travel to the closet theater playing the special event. As we await the official list (we know it’s coming to 96 theaters in the United States, 4 in Canada, and select locations elsewhere around the world), today we have an excellent featurette to show off the process.

“Ultra Panavision also produces subtle aesthetic effects, unusual even to viewers familiar with 70 millimeter,” NY Times reports. “The lens “for lack of a better word is a softer lens,” Mr. Sasaki said.

As the eight-minute featurette explains, it was quite an undertaking to refurbish new cameras, shoot the project,...

We've got another poster for Quentin Tarantino's The Hateful Eight to share with you today. It comes with the tagline "No One Comes Up Here Without A Damn Good Reason." Next to Star Wars: The Force Awakens, this is my other most anticipated movie of the year. I also included a new TV spot.

Jackson aims to find out who that is. A White Hell is unleashed in this eighth film from maestro Quentin Tarantino. This latest footage is set to debut during this Sunday's The Walking Dead. But you can see it first right here, right now!

If you want peace, prepare for war. Granted, in The Hateful Eight, not all of Quentin Tarantino’s dastardly ensemble strive for to add a sense of serenity to their lives, but you can bet your bottom dollar that they’re each secretly preparing for war.

Set against the ice hills of Wyoming, Tarantino’s latest project – his eight feature, incidentally – orbits around the title group of bandits who are forced to batten down the hatches at Minnie’s Haberdashery, a stagecoach stopover, when a seemingly relentless blizzard comes barrelling down off the mountains. Confining such a sleazy group of volatile outlaws under the one roof is just about the furthest thing from a good idea as you can get, though as the latest trailer showcased, it makes for some damn fine entertainment.

Retaining the slick editing and razor-sharp dialogue that the director is celebrated for, The Hateful Eight will...

The Weinstein Company has just released a&#160brand new poster&#160for their highly anticipated film,&#160The Hateful Eight , written and directed by Quentin Tarantino! And in true Tarantino form, this latest theatrical one-sheet pays homage to the 70s thrillers and disaster films that the director loves. The top half of the poster shows us a scene from the climactic ending, with Samuel L. Jackson walking into a gun fight, weapons drawn. While the bottom half shows us images of each actor in this all-star cast. This was the typical style utilized in the 70s for any epic that held multiple marquee names. It's a fun throwback that everyone, including the Police, might enjoy!

The Hateful Eight hits limited theaters on Christmas Day, which is still a month and a half away. If that wait is too excruciating, I have good news: you can jump into the movie's world right now, albeit in a different medium altogether.

Playboy (via The Film Stage) has announced it will publish a Hateful Eight prequel comic in its issue that hits newsstands tomorrow. Zach Meyer did the illustration, and writer/director Quentin Tarantino himself wrote the dialogue. The comic concentrates on how three of the titular Hateful Eight — John Ruth (Kurt Russell), Major Marquis Warren (Samuel L. Jackson), and Daisy Domergue (Jennifer Jason Leigh) — meet each other on the road just before the events of the film begin. Let us know what you think about it in the comments below!

We’re only a little more than a month out from Quentin Tarantino’s latest opus, The Hateful Eight, but we’re finally starting to see some concrete information about both the plot and, more recently, the expansive rollout of Tarantino’s chamber western.

Last week, we wrote about the most recent trailer, which continued to tease the splatter-happy violence and machine-gun patter that has become Tarantino’s signature voice, but this week we have more information about how the preparation of screening the film on 70 millimeter came together. Tarantino’s passion about presenting the film in Ultra Panavision 70mm has been one of the talking points for nearly as long as the basic conceptual discussions about the plot.

The New York Times wrote about the scope of this project and the necessary preparations. Screening in 70mm on any number of screens is a sizable undertaking in itself, but, as has recently been revealed,...
