First, let me say that Blazing Saddles was probably the funniest movie I’ve seen. I first saw it two years ago and now it looks like Blazing Samurai is going to take its place.
Tarzan. Which one do you think of? For me, it’s the 1999 Disney film, others, the Ron Ely 1966 television series Tarzan, as well as the 1970 film, Tarzan: A Deadly Silence.
And for this generation, it’s going to be the Alexander Skarsgard version, set to release on July 1, 2016. The film, directed by David Yates and written by Stuart Beattie, Craig Brewer, John Colle, and Adam Cozad, will star a number of well known people, including Skarsgard as Tarzan, Margot Robbie as Jane Porter, as well as Christoph Waltz, Samuel L. Jackson, and Djimon Hounsou.
The story’s premise will follow Tarzan a while after he left Africa, to live on a civilized life with his wife Jane, as he lives as John Clayton III, or also called, Lord Greystroke. As he returns to Africa to serve as a trace emissary, he soon gets involved in Belgium Captain Rom’s (Waltz) deadly plot and now he must make amends and stop him before things go terribly wrong. Jackson will play George Washington Williams and Hounsou will play Chief Mbonga.
The film itself is almost twelve years in the making, as John August was asked in 2003 to make a live adaptation of the story in modern day times. The script bounced around a bit, Michael Phelps’ name was even attached to the project, and now it landed safely to premiere on its July date.
Alright, we have mixed feelings about this. Well, I’m pretty sure so does Tarantino, but that’s another story. I mean, he writes the script, it gets leaked, he says he won’t make it into a movie, then he reads it out loud and someone tells him to make it into a movie, and he says yes, and now we’re here at the trailer.
But nonetheless, we can’t help but fall in love with his cult classic movies, and that’s why we can’t wait for the December 25 (or January 6, 2016 in other parts) premiere of The Hateful Eight, a film that has classic Tarantino actors like Samuel L. Jackson, Tim Roth, Michael Madsen, Kurt Russell, Zoe Bell, and even newcomers like Channing Tatum, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and more.
With an amazing cast and a script from Tarantino that revolves around vicious, gun toting strangers in a post Civil War era, what more can we ask for? The newest trailer was just released, which shows in more detail the lives of eight strangers who all seek shelter in Wyoming during a heavy blizzard.
You can watch the newest trailer below which sees a lot of action, and even takes in some amazing Wyoming winter landscapes.
