For The Love Of Spock is an upcoming documentary, directed by Adam Nimoy, that both celebrates the 50th anniversary of Star Trek and reflects on the inspiring life of Spock, actor and father Leonard Nimoy. With Zachary Quinto, who plays Spock in the Star Trek reboot films, narrating the documentary, For The Love Of Spock is set for release sometime in 2016. Looking forward to this one 🙂
High-Rise: In the newest trailer for the anticipated film High-Rise, Tom Hiddleston stars as Dr. Robert Laing, the newest resident in a high-tech, luxury skyscraper whose apartment location places him amongst the privileged upper class living the ‘High-Life’, literally and figuratively. However, as power outages become more frequent and building flaws emerge, particularly on the lower floors, the regimented social strata begins to fall apart and the building becomes a battlefield in a literal class war. Looking forward to this one 🙂
Poster Art: Just stumbled across this little gem – a video charting the progression of some Academy Award-winning Best Picture poster art, from the early 20th century to present. Very cool 🙂

Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory: Ryan Shukis has created this awesome modern thriller trailer for the classic 1971 musical fantasy film Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory. Still one of our favourite films – Great work! 🙂
Quentin Tarantino: Editor, filmmaker and self-confessed cinephile Jacob T. Swinney just created an awesome montage comparing the visual references of Quentin Tarantino with the original films including scenes from Psycho, Citizen Kane, Miller’s Crossing, Django, Metropolis and many more. Quentin Tarantino is a true movie lover and does not hesitate to pay tribute to scenes, actors, and directors in his own films, replicating exact moments from a variety of genres and smashing them together to create his own distinct vision. This video is so cool and it’s great to finally know the exact film some of Tarantino’s most memorable scenes are referencing – enjoy! 🙂
Star Trek Beyond: It must be trailer season because the shorts for the 2016 big budget blockbusters are coming in thick and fast this week. Today it’s Star Trek Beyond, which we believe was leaked so they had no choice but to release it early. Starring Idris Elba, Chris Pine, Simon Pegg, Zach Quinto, Zoe Saldana, John Cho, Anton Yelchin and Karl Urban, this third instalment in the current reboot (not directed by J.J. Abrams btw) is set to hit cinemas on 22nd July 2016.
The first trailer for Independence Day: Resurgence, sequel to the 1996 sci-fi disaster movie Independence Day has just dropped!

Fox, Brent Spiner, Charlotte Gainsbourg, Jessie Usher, Maika Monroe and Sela Ward, this long-awaited follow up hits cinemas on 24th June 2016. Will be interesting to see where they go with this one.
So toymaker Beeline Creative have decided to pay tribute to Quentin Tarantino’s cult classic by creating Pulp Fiction Explicit Talking Figures. This collection, available on Amazon for $50, is made up of four figures including Jules Winnfield, Vincent Vega, Jimmie Dimmick, and Butch with each one able to blurt out twelve uncensored quotes from the film. These are the best. Christmas. gift. ever. – gimme, gimme, gimme! 🙂
We’re loving the ‘Christmas Spirit’ mashup – a holiday remix of Christmas themed film and television clips by the ever awesome, Eclectic Method. Superb! 🙂
