Anyone looking forward to this? It's set after the US civil war and involves a group of bounty hunters.
QT is making a big thing about how it is shot on 70 mm film - a bit like The Master was a couple of years ago. He is even going around making sure that a few cinemas equip themselves with a projector for this. I think the Prince Charles Cinema is thinking about installing one. Plus, we all know how much he loves film.
There's no trailer yet.

Err - does Pale Rider in 1985 count?
Watch Django Unchained
I did really like Inglorious B@stards - and Django Unchained was pretty good. Jackie Brown sort of divides people.

Kill Bill also has Morricone music in it as well.
But the big difference here is that this will be the first Quentin Tarantino film where Ennio Morricone has actually written the score specifically for the film.
Absolutely brilliant film ^^^^^
The Homesman (2014) with Tommy Lee Jones. I'm sure there are newer films, but that's the only one I can recall.
There's also The Revenant - a Leonardo di Caprio film - coming up. This and The Hateful Eight will be released on the same day.
Odeon Leicester Square Screen 1
BFI Southbank
Picturehouse Central
Edinburgh Picturehouse
National Media Museum in Bradford
The Odeon West End did have that facility for screen 2 - but that is being redeveloped now - and it might not come back, it might just be a hotel.
A somewhat meh teaser, bit let's hope the finished piece delivers its promised 70mm glories.
And of course with all the snow it certainly has the feel of the Sergio Corbucci film 'The Great Silence' from 1968.
Both very good films in their own right.
Trailer doesn't really give much away plot wise, but who cares. Does anyone decide whether or not to see a Tarantino film on the strength of the trailer? I doubt it. I imagine most people already know if they're going to see it or not. Shame their was no room for Christophe Waltz this time round, but a tenner says Bruce Dern gets a Best Supporting nomination.

And in other news today, the earth is round.
It does, Jackie Brown is my favourite.

Although, I think QT is in London for the 70 mm premiere at the moment. I think it was at the Odeon Leicester Square Screen 1.
There is no such thing as "the Odeon Leicester Square Screen 1". It is the Odeon Leicester Square, a single screen cinema. The adjacent screens are the Odeon Studios and are considered to be a separate operation.
Hell's bells. Can't they have split it into two movies like with Kill Bill so we can watch the first then decide whether to bother with the second if not one's cup of tea?
No way am I going to a cinema and watching this at 3hrs plus the obligatory 20-30 mins of pre-movie adverts. Numb bum has tainted a few movies for me over the years where they drag on for too long. Bring back the interval breaks!
Besides if it is padded out with overly long dialogue then I'll wait for the opposite of the director's cut that will reduce it to a much more manageable 90 minutes.
I do understand your concern at such a bum-numbing running time, but if it's been structured and composed as a three hour film then so be it. You couldn't just cut it in half and call it parts one and two. I imagine it would require a fair bit more editing and such for them to work as two ninety minute pieces, even if one does immediately carry on from the first.
It would be interesting to see if that could be done though - two different versions, two different edits.
