It’s always weird when a trailer for a movie pops up that I’ve never heard of before, because my job revolves around all things movies. But here’s a trailer for a film called Cut Bank that I haven't heard of until recently, and has it has an impressive cast of actors that includes Liam Hemsworth, Teresa Palmer, John Malkovich, Billy Bob Thornton, Bruce Dern, Michael Stuhlbarg, and Oliver Platt.

The movie seems to have a very Coen Brothers vibe to it, and because of that it looks like it could be fun to watch. Here’s the synopsis:

Dwayne McLaren (Liam Hemsworth) dreams about escaping small town life in Cut Bank, Montana, “the coldest spot in the nation,” with his vivacious girlfriend Cassandra (Teresa Palmer). When Dwayne witnesses an awful crime, he tries to leverage a bad situation into a scheme to get rich quickly but he finds that fate and an unruly accomplice are working against him. Thrust into the middle of a police investigation spearheaded by the local sheriff (John Malkovich), everything goes from bad to worse in this all-American thriller. Directed by Matt Shakman and also starring Billy Bob Thorton, Bruce Dern, Michael Stuhlbarg, and Oliver Platt.

Cut Bank will be available on DirecTV starting on February 26th, and will get a limited release in theaters on April 3rd.

I’m a fan of Carey Mulligan; she’s just such a talented and beautiful actress. She stars in a upcoming new film called Far From the Madding Crowd, which tells the story of a newly wealthy and very independent woman (Mulligan) and the three suitors (Tom Sturridge, Matthias Schoenaerts, and Michael Sheen) who are trying to win her over. 

The film is based on a book by Thomas Hardy, and directed by Danish filmmaker Thomas Vinterberg. It looks like it features some great performances by everyone involved. Here’s the synopsis:

Based on the literary classic by Thomas Hardy, FAR FROM THE MADDING CROWD is the story of independent, beautiful and headstrong Bathsheba Everdene (Carey Mulligan), who attracts three very different suitors: Gabriel Oak (Matthias Schoenaerts), a sheep farmer, captivated by her fetching wilfulness; Frank Troy (Tom Sturridge), a handsome and reckless Sergeant; and William Boldwood (Michael Sheen), a prosperous and mature bachelor. This timeless story of Bathsheba’s choices and passions explores the nature of relationships and love – as well as the human ability to overcome hardships through resilience and perseverance.

The movie opens in theaters on May 1st, the same day as Avengers: Age of Ultron. I know what I’ll be seeing! Sorry Carey.

Foxcatcher has garnered five Academy Award nominations: Best Director (Bennett Miller), Best Actor (Steve Carell), Best Supporting Actor (Mark Ruffalo), Best Orginal Screenplay (E. Max Frye and Dan Futterman), and Best Makeup (Bill Corso and Dennis Liddiard). In the movie we are treated to the psychosis of yet another mental case. Stories of psychotic characters seem to be the order of the day in many of the front-runners for major awards this season. In the case of Foxcatcher, the loon is an actual person, not a character created out of the writer’s imagination. Steve Carrell, who is known more for his comedic roles but has proven himself as a dramatic actor, is well-deserving of his Oscar nomination for his portrayal of eccentric billionaire John DuPont. Mark Ruffalo is no less deserving in his supporting role of  wrestling champion and coach Dave Schultz, who is eventually murdered by DuPont.

DuPont, it seems, had an obsession for the sport of wrestling. His dream was to establish an elite training facility for all the best wrestlers in the nation; a place to come and build a champion U.S. Olympic team. And of course, it’s much easier to realize those types of dreams when you’ve more money than good sense, and you happen to live on an 800 acre estate! After building the training facility on his family estate, Foxcatcher Farm (located in Delaware County, Pennsylvania), his next move was to obtain the services of Mark (Channing Tatum) and David Schultz, brothers who were both wrestling gold medalists in the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics, to head Team Foxcatcher. He is turned down by Dave who does not want to uproot his family, but Mark readily accepts DuPont’s offer and sees it as his opportunity to come out from under his brother’s shadow. In the course of their relationship, DuPont gets Mark hooked on cocaine and continually presses him to convince his brother to join them. Eventually, DuPont makes David an offer he can’t refuse. After coming aboard, Dave finds that he and DuPont have differing managerial styles for training, which keep them at odds. DuPont was not emotionally equipped to have anyone differ with him or question him in any way.

Carrell does an excellent job of taking on the persona of John DuPont, right down to the prosthetic nose and imitating his voice. The production values in Foxcatcher are flawless, and the acting from Channing, Ruffalo, and Carrell is right on the nose, so to speak. Vanessa Redgrave plays DuPont’s mother, whom he can never satisfy. Redgrave’s being part of this cast is just the cherry on top.

The storyline for Foxcatcher is indeed a sad one, rife with human frailty and dysfunctional relationships those frailties sometimes bring about. DuPont was sent to prison on a third-degree murder charge for the 1996 shooting death of David Schultz. He died in prison in 2010 of pulmonary disease.

I wanted more from the movie, not acting wise, but it is missing motivations in my view for some of the action taking place. I didn’t feel the “whys” were totally successfully addressed. It is not that I need to even be clubbed in the face with motivations, but I feel there was too much unanswered from scene to scene. Anyhow, that’s the way I see it.

One of the more intriguing aspects of Alejandro González Iñárritu and Michael Keaton’s Birdman was the fact that it looks like the whole film was shot in a single take. Of course it wasn’t really shot in a single take, but the illusion of it is still incredibly cool.

In an accompanying interview with Thomopson on Hollywood, cinematographer Emmanuel Lubezki pointed out something that that I didn’t notice that was kind of awesome.

“There was something that we did that nobody has mentioned: the labyrinth of corridors shrink and shrink as the movie progresses and Riggan’s level of stress and insanity grow. We narrow the width of the corridors and the ceilings come closer. We didn’t want to do it in a way that looked too strange but it’s something that you feel.”

Birdman was one of my favorite movies of the year, and I loved how the movie came together. If you were a fan of it as well, this is a featurette that you’ve got to check out. 

Gore Verbinski (The Ring, Pirates of the Caribbean) is set to direct a film  Sony that is being written by Steve Conrad for Sony Pictures. The movie doesn’t have an official title, but it’s currently being called Driverless Car Race.

The concept of the film revolves around a transcontinental car race with vehicles that can drive on their own. Deadline has the details on the story:

The race originates as a beta test to vet competing software companies that would take the lead on futuristic driver-less vehicles, but it all takes an It’s A Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World-like comedic turn when the trial run devolves into major road race after the competitive nature of the start-ups trumps their altruistic intentions. The subjects, normal people who are passengers in these cars, eventually try to take control of the experiment. A simple trek from Paris to Beijing, goes awry as vehicles head off the road and off the grid, getting into all kinds of trouble.

It’s a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World is a great movie, as was its kind-of remake, Rat Race. I’d much rather see Verbinski make that Bioshock movie that will never happen, but I’m sure this one will be a decent flick. Verbinski had this to say in a statement:

“Essentially, we are going to take the funniest comedic actors of this generation and slowly unleash them as we examine the very notion of ‘passengers’ who fundamentally cannot remain passive.”

Conrad added:

“We want to invert the whole premise of a road trip where the promise has always been, ‘anything can happen’, and say, ‘what if anything can’t happen’? What does that do to the test subject? What are the breaking points?”

Sounds like fun!

I fear I have become a huge Benedict Cumberbatch fan, having first become aware of his work watching the first season of Sherlock on PBS back in 2010. I could not not watch him. He is an absolutely brilliant actor with an immense talent. It is said that the best actors are the ones you never catch working. Cumberbatch certainly falls into this category. What he does is so appealingly organic, you would never find yourself saying, “Oh yes, I see. He’s acting.” He had a minor role in the 2013 film, August: Osage County. His scene at the bus stop is the only redeeming thing about that tour-de-crap, which in my view, was otherwise utter cinematic rubbish. Cumberbatch’s genius is in reaching out and grabbing his audience, and then compelling them to become emotionally invested in whatever particular character, large or small, he is playing at the time.

Cumberbatch is a current Best Actor Oscar nominee, deservedly so, for his portrayal of Alan Turing in the film, The Imitation Game. The advertising posters for the movie tout, “Benedict Cumberbatch is Outstanding!” I second that! This motion picture, also nominated for Best Picture, has a real Hitchcockian feel. It is high drama in the best sense of the word and keeps the viewer on the edge of his seat. The script, by Graham Moore is loosely based on the Andrew Hodges biography, “Turing: the Enigma”.

Cumberbatch is surrounded by an amazing supporting cast which includes Keira Knightley, Matthew Goode (The Good Wife), Allen Leech (Downton Abbey), Mark Strong (Zero Dark Thirty), and Charles Dance (Game of Thrones). Knightley is nominated for Best Supporting Actress. She is nothing short of stellar in her portrayal of cryptanalyst and numismatist Joan Clarke. Clarke is also portrayed in the film as the driving force behind Turing when his will occasionally flags.  

The plot of Imitation Game principally revolves around the efforts of Turing and his team genius mathematicians, chess players, crossword solvers, linguists, etc. in breaking the Nazis' Enigma code during World War II. It is estimated that Turing’s efforts helped shorten the war by some two years and probably saved as many as 14 million lives. Sadly, his achievements were not taken into account when he was arrested and convicted for gross indecency years later, after admitting to having been in a gay relationship. This ultimately led to his suicide in 1954 at age 41; a very sad epitaph indeed, especially when you consider his great contribution to the war effort and the fact that he is considered by some the father of theoretical computer science and artificial intelligence.

There are many moments of delicious, if subtle, humor in Imitation Game. My favorite is when Turing, who is the epitome of social ineptitude and humorlessness, attempts telling his colleagues a joke, which leaves them somewhat speechless.

The Imitation Game is certainly a must see, and definitely gets my two thumbs up! Anyhow, that’s the way I see it!

It's incredibly exciting that we're actually going to get to see Spider-Man in action in the Marvel cinematic universe. He'll make his first appearance in Captain America: Civil War, and I hope that he has a decent-sized role in the story.

In the Civil War comic book series, Spider-Man ended up siding with Iron Man at first, but then switched over to the side of Captain America. I'm curious to see what Marvel does with this storyline on the big screen.

While we wait to see who Marvel and Sony casts as the web-slinger, here's a cool fan poster created by DevaintArt user sahinduezguen.

We all know Gal Gadot will be playing the legendary Wonder Woman in the new movie being developed at Warner Bros. What we didn’t know, until now, is when exactly they would start filming said movie. Thanks to Deadline, we have an answer to that. They report that Wonder Woman is set to shoot this fall for a theatrical release on June 23th, 2017. So we still have quite a wait.

Michelle MacLaren, director of Breaking Bad and Walking Dead, will be directing the Wonder Woman movie which features a script by Jason Fuchs, who has written the films Ice Age:
Continental Drift and the upcoming Pan. Also, in recent rumors, the movie is said to kick off a trilogy, with the first set back in the 1920s, revealing Themyscira’s first encounter with
the outside world.

Gadot will be making her first cinematic appearance as Wonder Woman in Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice, which comes out on March 25th, 2016.

Here is another cool piece of Iron Man art from Mars, who gives us his version of a female Iron Man. This artist has given us some great Iron Man illustrations in the past, and you can check them out here and here. He seems to love coming up with new Iron Man designs. I do have to say, though, that it doesn’t really make sense to have armor with boobs… but Mars must be going with the sexy factor.

As you know, Lucasfilm is in the process of developing multiple standalone Star Wars films at the moment, and a Han Solo prequel story has been a hot item of discussion among fans. If we ever did see a Han Solo standalone movie, the only way it’s going to happen is if it gives us kind of an origin story that focuses on the adventures of a younger version of the character.

Gareth Edwards is directing one of these spinoff films, the first draft of which was written by Gary Whitta. Chris Weitz is the screenwriter who has been brought on board to write the second draft. It also seems like Felicity Jones could take the lead female role in the film. The movie is set to be released in 2016, and rumor has it the story will follow a group of bounty hunters who are hired to steal the plans for the Death Star. None of that is confirmed though.

It was previously reported that the other standalone movie is being developed by Fantastic Four director Josh Trank, and we’ve had no clue what that film will entail… until now. 

UK newspaper The Sun (via: Daily Mail) claims that the second standalone movie will feature a young Han Solo, which fans have long speculated about. They also say that Kingsman: The Secret Service star Taron Egerton is being looked at to fill the role of Han Solo.

The report goes on to say the movie will show us “how Harrison Ford’s iconic character got the Millennium Falcon and as well as showing how he fell out with Jabba the Hutt.” I assume that will include how he and Chewbacca met as well. It wouldn’t be a decent origin story with out that big piece of his history being included.

The Sun is a tabloid paper, so I wouldn’t put a lot of trust in it. But it does open up a conversation. There was also an interesting tweet from Kingsman comic writer Mark Millar, who said:

“Taron shot first. #justsayin”

Maybe he’s just reacting to the rumor, but there’s always the slight chance that he might know something that the rest of us don’t. 

I loved Taron in Kingsman, and I think he would be a very interesting choice to take on the part of Solo. I think that he could actually pull it off. I'm also open to the idea of a origin film. There’s a lot of stuff that they can play with there, and even if you aren’t on board with the idea, chances are this is going to be something that Lucasfilm eventually does. (You can read about five moments from Solo’s early life that would be cool to see here.)

George Lucas wanted to include a 10-year-old version of Solo is Revenge of the Sith, and you can see some concept art for that here. I’m sure Lucasfilm will come up with something  a lot better than anything Lucas would have done with a younger Solo character.

What are your thoughts on the possibility of Egerton playing Han Solo in an origin standalone film?

For the most part, I enjoyed last night's 87th Academy Awards. Neil Patrick Harris did a great job hosting, and he opened up the ceremony with an extremely cool opening musical number. It was a great start to an awards show that had some fun moments scattered throughout. Some of my other favorite parts of the show included The LEGO Movie's "Everything was Awesome" which was performed by Tegan & Sara and The Lonely Island; John Legend and Common's amazing performance for Selma; and Lady Gaga's surprisingly stellar tribute to The Sound of Music for its 50th anniversary. I also included the "In Memoriam" section that takes a look back at the Hollywood talent who passed away last year, although for some reason Joan Rivers was left out of it. 

If you want to watch several other highlights from the show, including any of the speeches from the award winners, head over to the official Oscars site. What did you think of the Oscar ceremony?

In case you’re still wondering how much longer Hugh Jackman will want to play Wolverine, the answer is… until he dies. In a recent interview with Cigar Aficionado (via: E! Online), he reveals that watching Michael Keaton in Birdman stirred something inside him.

“I said to my wife, ‘The moral is that I should never stop playing Wolverine. I’ve got to find a way to keep playing him until I die.’ I know that someday they’ll recast the role with another actor… I’d be happy if the role was eventually recast. It would mean that it had become iconic.”

As you know, the actor has previously talked about it almost being time to step away from the role. It doesn’t sound like thats going to happen now. He’ll have to be pushed out by the studio. He then goes on to discus his mindset every time he steps into the role of Wolverine and how he pushes himself more and more each time he takes it on.

“I always want to be in better shape than I was for the last one. I don’t believe in stagnation. People say they try to maintain the status quo. But I believe the natural cycle means you’re either advancing and getting closer to something or you’re receding…Every time I play Wolverine I want to go further, physically and emotionally.”

That’s hardcore dedication. You know what? Jackman can play Wolverine as long as he wants. It’s going to be so weird when someone actually takes over the part, but hopefully it doesn’t happen anytime soon. I hope that they at least let him play the character until they adapt the comic series Old Man Logan for the big screen.

There’s no confirmation that Jackman will appear in X-Men: Apocalypse, but it is possible he could be in it. He’s definitely set up for a third standalone Wolverine, film which will be released on March 3rd, 2017. That movie is being developed by James Mangold, and Patrick Stewart also recently said there could be a team-up film between Logan and Professor Xavier.

What do you think about the comments Jackman made here?

Musterbrand has unveiled this awesome Metal Gear Solid-inspired scout jacket. I've been looking for a new jacket, and it looks like I've found one that I really want. This thing is just so cool, and it's loaded with lots of features and details. The jacket costs $299, but I think it's worth the price for a jacket like this. You can check out all of the specs below, along with a video and some photos showing it off. 

The Big Boss approved this parka for the use in the harshest conditions. The durable cotton twill shell is perfectly apt to withstand most environmental influences. Due to a thick padding and the length of this jacket, even freezing cold becomes bearable.

The Scout jacket features lots of pockets for all sorts of utilities you might need in the field. Two huge pockets are located on the front and another smaller one on the left upper arm sleeve. In addition to the jacket comes with two pockets on the inside.

One of the key aspects of the Scout Jacket is utility. Therefore, it features two D-rings on the back, which can be used for example to carry the jacket like a backpack keeping both hands free, if you attach a strap from a bag to them.

Allegiance is rare in the world of mercenaries. Show yours with the detachable silicon badges or most importantly exchange them when your allegiance shifts to another employer. The Jacket will be shipped with a Diamond Dogs and FOX badge. All badges from the Metal Gear Solid Collection are compatible and can be used on the Scout Jacket.

Material Composition:

• Shell: 100% cotton twill

• Lining: 100% Polyamide

• Care: machine wash 30° gentle, do not bleach, do not tumble dry, cool iron, dry cleaning extra gentle

• Colour: Olive

Fans are on edge wondering who Marvel and Sony will cast as the new Spider-Man in the shared universe that will begin with Captain America: Civil War. Many people assume the studios would just go with the normal Peter Parker version of the character again, but according to The Wrap's Jeff Sneider, that may not be the case. When he was a guest on the Meet the Movie Press podcast, he said,

"Listen, this is not set in stone guys, but I’m telling you right now, Spider-Man’s not going to be white. Spider-Man’s not going to be white. I’m 95% sure. Spider-Man’s going to be most likely black. But there’s a chance he could also be Latino. 95% sure, not white."

He didn't come out and say that this will be the Miles Morales version of Spider-Man, but he did say, “I don’t think it’s going to be Peter Parker.” He went on to say that the Sony hack may have played a role in this decision saying:

"I really feel strongly. Sony has an opportunity to beat Marvel and DC to the punch with a major black comic book character. Like I mentioned last week, the emails that leaked were perceived as racist in some quarters. I really think that’s going to play into things."

This rumor seems to go against recent reports that the studios were looking at Logan Lerman and Dylan O'Brien for the part of Spider-Man. I personally think it would be very cool to see them switch things up with the superhero, but we're just going to have to wait and see how this all plays out.

Captain America: Civil War will be released on May 5th, 2016, and the first Spider-Man solo film will be released on July 28th, 2017. Would you rather see the classic Peter Parker version of Spider-Man back in action, or see Miles Morales? 

I’ve got a marvelously awesome retro sci-fi short short film for you to watch today called "Over the Moon." The space adventure centers on a heroine who is the first woman who walked on the moon, along with her robot companion, Julius. Together they attempt to prevent the 1969 American moon landing.

The movie is described as an intergalactic comedy, and a “feminist space adventure about kick-ass comic book heroine Connie Radar.” 

The short comes from director James Cunningham and a team of visual effects artists from Auckland’s Media Design School. I love the visual style of the short, and the effects work is done really well. This was quite an enjoyable short, and I you you like it!

Marvel has released a new TV spot for the mid-season return of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., and I believe it features the first time that we hear the term "Inhuman" used in the MCU. The studio is obviously using the series to prep audiences for the full-fledged Inhumans feature film which doesn't come out until 2018.

The promo is called "Skye Quakes," and it revolves around the character Skye, whose true identity was revealed as being Daisy Johnson a.k.a. Quake. Marvel’s Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. is set to return with a Inhuman story arc on Tuesday, March 3rd, 2015. 

I'm really excited to see where Marvel takes this story from here. It looks like things are going to get really interesting!

The She-Devil with a Sword would be proud of the tremendous job It's Raining Neon (real name DeAnna Davis) did in recreating the beautiful warrior, all the while still adding her own flair to the iconic costume's design. The robe is probably my favorite part, just for the huge pop of color it provides, as well as the nice sense of motion it contributes to the photo above. Plus, I like that this version covers at least just a bit more than the standard version. She not only made the costume, but is also responsible for all the photography, which is stellar. Hopefully these won't be the only photos we get to see from the shoot, but until then you can check out her other work on her Facebook or Deviant Art pages. 

The two Marvel movies coming out this year include Ant-Man and Avengers: Age of Ultron, but it doesn't seem like there's going to be much of a connection between the films. As some of you probably already know, Hank Pym was the character who originally created Ultron in the comics. That's not how it's going to go down in the cinematic universe, though: Tony Stark will be the man who brings Ultron to life. If you're wondering why Whedon and Marvel took that detour, he kind of blames Edgar Wright. This is what he said in an interview with Empire:

"Of all the heat I’ve ever taken, not having Hank Pym was one of the bigger things. But the fact of the matter was, Edgar had him first and by virtue of what Edgar was doing, there was no way for me to use him in this."

Wright was working on Ant-Man years before Marvel Studios knew what they were even going to really be doing with their movies, so it's not like he took the character away from Whedon on purpose. Whedon basically just had to use the tools and characters he was given to tell a story that fits in with what Marvel is trying to do. The director went on to explain:

"I also thought it was a bridge too far. Ultron needs to be the brainchild of the Avengers, and in the world of the Avengers and the MCU, Tony Stark is that guy. Banner has elements of that guy – we don’t really think of him as being as irresponsible as Tony Stark, but the motherfucker tested gamma radiation on himself, with really terrible, way-worse-than-Tony-Stark results.

"It didn’t make sense to introduce a third scientist, a third sciencetician, to do that. It was hard for me, because I grew up on the comics, to dump that, but at the end of the day, it’s a more interesting relationship between Tony and Ultron if Tony was once like, ‘You know what would be a really great idea?’ They’re doing what they always do – which is jump in headfirst, and then go, ‘Sorry, world!’ But you have to make it their responsibility without just making it their fault."

I'm completely OK with how Whedon is handling Ultron in the film. It makes complete sense to me, and lot of other fans. Of course, I'm sure there are a few hardcore comic fans out there that are a little annoyed by the changes. It's just something they're going to have to live with. In the end, it's going to be a badass movie that we're all going to have a blast watching!

Avengers: Age of Ultron opens in theaters on May 1st, and Ant-Man will follow on July 17th.

Thewlis Rox @ YouTube created an incredibly entertaining Harry Potter parody trailer that gives the epic fantasy saga a classic teen movie feel. The video was released a few years ago, but I haven't come across it until now, and it's currently making the rounds on the internet. The video is perfectly cut together, and it includes all of the right beats that you would expect to see in a formulaic-type teen film. The music also plays a huge role in giving the trailer that upbeat amusing vibe. Check it out!

Patricia Arquette won the Best Supporting Actress award at last night's Oscars for her work in Richard Linklater's Boyhood, but many were surprised that the film wasn't honored with any other Academy Awards. (It was an early favorite for Best Picture, and it had a good shot at taking home Best Editing and Best Original Screenplay, too.) For Boyhood fans who put a ton of stock in the Oscars, the film's losses stung. But here's some news that might make you perk up a little bit.

Linklater recently went on Jeff Goldsmith's Q&A Podcast and revealed that he's actually considering making a sequel. The Playlist has the transcriptions of the conversation:

"To be honest...this film first met its audience exactly a year ago and for the first six months of the year, my answer to [whether or not he'd make a sequel] was absolutely not. This was twelve years, it was first grade through 12th grade; it was about getting out of high school. I had no idea about another story, there’s nothing to say. It hadn’t crossed my mind. But I don’t know if it’s been a combination of finally feeling that this is over or being asked a similar question a bunch over the last year, that I thought, well, I wake up in the morning thinking, ‘the 20s are pretty formative, you know?’ That’s where you really become who you’re going to be. It’s one thing to grow up and go to college, but it’s another thing to…So, I will admit my mind has drifted towards [this sequel idea].”

Hmm. I'm not sure audiences would react the same way to a sequel because it doesn't have the same behind-the-scenes originality as the first film did. But it sounds like the sequel wouldn't follow the same cinematic structure as the original anyway:

“The twelve years [structure] came out of [school structure]. It wouldn’t have to be twelve years. It wouldn’t have to be… I mean, who knows. I mean, if I learned anything on the ‘Before’ trilogy it took five years to realize that Jesse and Celine were still alive and had anything to say. This one would probably be more accelerated, but who knows.”

Let's not forget Linklater's next movie (which comes out later this year) is called That's What I'm Talking About, and it's been called a spiritual sequel to Dazed & Confused, which sounds like it could cover a lot of the same ground that a Boyhood sequel would cover. But that doesn't seem to bother him too much.

“I’ve dealt with this before… I have, in my movies, touched on people in their 20s. So to what degree I’ll be going over certain territories again—I dunno, it’s impossible to say what may or may not come of it... I would love to keep working with this cast and I think we all would. But that can’t be the primary reason to do it. You always need something to say. You can’t do it just cause you want to work with your friends, you gotta have something really inside you you’re trying to communicate about those years. It might happen, but I dunno, it’s in the ether in the moment.”

What do you guys think? Would you like to see a sequel to Boyhood, checking back in with those characters as they grow even older? Or was it a lightning in a bottle situation that should be better left alone?
