The Legend of Hell's Gate: An American Conspiracy (2011)
12 hours ago | Planet Fury | See recent Planet Fury news »
Directed by: Tanner Beard
Written by: Tanner Beard
Starring: Eric Balfour, Lou Taylor Pucci, Tanner Beard, Henry Thomas, Jenna Dewan, Summer Glau, Jamie Thomas King
The subtitle of The Legend of Hell’s Gate is “An American Conspiracy.” A conspiracy usually involves a large cast of characters and, in his feature debut, writer-director-star Tanner Beard draws upon local legends and has cast a legion of mid-level character actors to spin a small-scale oater epic with a proverbial cast of thousands. Beard should be commended for his ambition, but his reach far too often exceeds his grasp.
In 1876 West Texas, former thief turned railworker Jimmy (Beard) arrives in Dallas seeking his fortune and a cure for his toothache, which leads to an encounter with Doc Holliday (Jamie Thomas King) and his befriending of a local prostitute named Katherine (Jenna Dewan of The Playboy Club). Meanwhile, a posse of Confederate veterans turned »

The Dark Knight Rises poster online
22 May 2012 10:20 AM, PDT | Shadowlocked | See recent Shadowlocked news »
There's a new poster for The Dark Knight Rises online. In a twist on the awesome cliché of heroes walking away from explosions, Batman stands, brooding as usual, with his back to the fiery Bat-symbol, fists clenched, scowling. Batman is too angsty to care about looking cool; he just does it effortlessly. Perhaps he's torn up or even paralysed by what Bane's doing to Gotham, so he can't bear to look; or perhaps he's contemplating a terrible choice he'll have to make. Christopher Nolan's been clear about bringing the trilogy to a definitive conclusion with The Dark Knight Rises, and that having said what he wants to say in the Batman universe, he won't return to the franchise. As such, and given the dark and gritty tone of Nolan's films, filled with tragedy, moral ambiguity, and sacrifice, there's been speculation as to Batman's fate. Will he ultimately lay down »

James Cameron only wants to make more Avatar (and documentaries)
7 May 2012 2:57 PM, PDT | Shadowlocked | See recent Shadowlocked news »
Acclaimed, Oscar-winning, box office record breaking director James Cameron recently summed up the planned rest of his career as follows:
“So I’m not interested in developing anything. I’m in the Avatar business. Period. That’s it. I’m making Avatar 2, Avatar 3, maybe Avatar 4, and I’m not going to produce other people’s movies for them.”
So, apart from the news that there may (eventually) be a fourth Avatar film, this presumably means that James Cameron won’t be making Battle Angel, or working with his Dark Angel star Jessica Alba again (unless he casts her in one of the Avatar sequels), or making another TV series (unless it’s an Avatar one, which at this stage would seem prohibitively expensive). It would also rule out Cameron's involvement in any follow-ups to his previous movies, such as a True Lies sequel, another Terminator film, or anything in the Alien/Prometheus franchise. »
Hit Me With Your Best Shot: "Firefly / Serenity"
18 April 2012 10:45 PM, PDT | FilmExperience | See recent FilmExperience news »
For this week's edition of Hit Me With Your Best Shot, the series wherein we invite everyone to get opinionated and choose the single best shot from pre-selected movies, we offered up an atypical two-for-one deal. You could either choose an image from Firefly's first episode (if you'd never seen the Joss Whedon series and wanted to start at the beginning) or an image from its movie spinoff Serenity. Or both if you're crazy about Captain Tightpants. I am but I chose only the latter in order to tie it into 2012's Joss Whedon film frenzy.
Though Whedon had been Oscar nominated for screenwriting (Toy Story, 1995) even before Buffy the Vampire Slayer bowed on TV making him famous, Serenity was his feature film directorial debut. You might even call it his audition piece for The Avengers. Transitioning between medium is rarely simple for creative talent and Whedon wisely made »

Eric Balfour (l.) and Henry Thomas are out for riches in The Legend of Hell's Gate.
Greed and crime are the order of the day in the action-filled 2011 Western film The Legend of Hell’s Gate.
Inspired by a true story, the Texas-based Legend of Hell’s Gate looks at the mystery of the events surrounding the legendary Hell’s Gate, a cliff formation that rises out of Possum Kingdom Lake in Texas. According to legend, a curious errand boy (Lou Taylor Pucci, The Music Never Stopped) catches wind of one of America’s most infamous crimes – the assassination of Abraham Lincoln – and falls in with two desperate men on the wrong side of the law (Skyline‘s Eric Balfour and Dear John‘s Henry Thomas). Crossing paths with some of the West’s most notorious figures, the three outlaws fight for »

Adam Baldwin Previews His Castle Visit (Firefly Shout-Outs Included), Reflects on Chuck Finale
15 April 2012 4:32 PM, PDT | TVLine.com | See recent TVLine.com news »
Rick Castle is about to get Slaughtered.
In this Monday’s episode of Castle (ABC, 10/9c), Nathan Fillion’s novelist will dive head first – for better or for worse – into a storyline with a rough, tough and gruff NYPD detective named Ethan Slaughter and played by Adam Baldwin.
And while the episode obviously offers the geeky thrill of a reunion between the onetime stars of Firefly (where Fillion played Capt. Mal Reynolds to Baldwin’s Jayne Cobb), it will also serve a larger purpose, as the ABC hit closes in on its “very emotional” Season 4 finale (airing May 7).

Exclusive: Brett Gipson Takes On 'Knights of Badassdom'
6 April 2012 10:00 AM, PDT | FEARnet | See recent FEARnet news »
It feels like we have been hearing about Knights of Badassdom forever. The action / horror / fantasy / comedy from director Joe Lynch (Holliston) is due out this summer. The film stars a top-notch roster of genre favorites like Ryan Kwanten (True Blood), Peter Dinklage (Game of Thrones), and Summer Glau (Firefly), a group of LARPers (live-action role playing) who discover that monsters and demons are real - and they're hungry. Newcomer Brett Gipson will surely join the ranks of his costars when Knights of Badassdom hits theaters. We grabbed him while he was still taking our calls to tell us about the film. Tell me about your role in Knights of Badassdom. Essentially, it's a group of live-action role players - »
Big Bang Theory: 100 episodes in, it has never been better
5 April 2012 7:00 AM, PDT | The Guardian - TV News | See recent The Guardian - TV News news »
The old-fashioned sitcom with a cast of Roseanne graduates is still going strong, five years on
There used to be a surefire way to never get anything done over the weekend. Leave E4 on for more than five minutes and a vintage episode of Friends would appear to distract you from your ironing, trolling session or bake-off, dragging you off into another one of Phoebe's whimsical japes. It was familiar and predictable, but also compulsive and lovely.
E4 might not have Friends repeats anymore, but a new threat to the nation's bake-offs has emerged. At most random times of the day, you will probably find one of The Big Bang Theory's five seasons. The only difference is that Big Bang is not only still on – it's also still in its prime. Tonight, the science sitcom reaches its 100th episode with a special night of E4 programming.

Felicia Day hints at secret cameos in The Avengers
4 April 2012 12:17 PM, PDT | Shadowlocked | See recent Shadowlocked news »
In a recent event to promote her new YouTube channel, Geek and Sundry (an event which was, incidentally, the largest-scale Google + Hangout that there’s been so far), web series queen Felicia Day (The Guild, Dragon Age: Redemption) briefly addressed her friend Joss Whedon’s upcoming superhero flick The Avengers, saying: “I know a couple of people in it, but some of them might be spoilers so I really can’t say.”
This could mean that The Avengers features Awesome Secret Surprise Cameos, or just that, in order to avoid spoilers, Felicia Day’s erring on the safe side. But for the purposes of crazed fanboy speculation, we shall assume the former, and hope for cameos as brilliant as those in The Muppets.
[Casting speculation spoilers follow.]
Having played roles in the Joss Whedon productions Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Dollhouse, and Doctor Horrible’s Sing-a-Long Blog, Felicia Day knows quite a few Whedon alums, »
Our Wish List for 'The Hunger Games' Sequel, 'Catching Fire'
4 April 2012 12:00 PM, PDT | NextMovie | See recent NextMovie news »
Now that "The Hunger Games" is tearing up the box office and we've had a chance to dig through what surprises the film offered even long-time fans, it's time to turn up the heat on the subject of the first sequel, "Catching Fire."
We already know a few deets about what's in store for the second "Hunger Games" installment. For one, Simon Beaufoy of "Slumdog Millionaire" and "127 Hours" fame is currently busy typing up a first script for the film. Also, the release date for "Catching Fire" is set for Nov. 22, 2013, and director Gary Ross is committed to direct it (though he's still not a sure thing for "Mockingjay" and we do hope he sticks it out for the full series). Plus rumor has it that the team is eyeing Hawaii as a potential filming destination for the new Arena scenes.
Still, with all the new characters and locations in the second story, »

Denette Wilford: Get 'Bent' Before It's Gone
2 April 2012 8:02 AM, PDT | Aol TV. | See recent Aol TV. news »
Why do "Bent" and leading man David Walton get no love?
In ensemble comedies, there's always one actor that manages to transform their character and inadvertently transcend the others -- even just a little. It's a totally subjective thing, but as far as I'm concerned, Monica Geller ("Friends"), Jack McFarland ("Will & Grace"), Brad Williams ("Happy Endings"), Ellie Torres ("Cougar Town") and Jay Pritchett ("Modern Family") could or can do no wrong, and they shine just a teensy bit brighter than the rest.
Aside from those characters, my new favourite is Pete Riggins, played to scene-stealing perfection by David Walton. Oh, David Walton. (If this was Twitter, the hashtag would be #swoon.) He isn't exactly sublime or particularly innovative with his performances (based on his latest series, "Bent," the criminally undervalued "Perfect Couples") and he was the one notable exception in the dismal "100 Questions." In fact, he's really a two-note pony »

24 March 2012 4:00 PM, PDT | GeekTyrant | See recent GeekTyrant news »
Here's the trailer for a new western thriller called The Legend of Hell's Gate: An American Conspiracy, which is apparently based on a true story. I'm a big fan of westerns, but I've got to admit... this movie doesn't really look that good. There's some pretty silly dialogue, when you watch the trailer it's not hard to miss.
The film was written and directed by Tanner Beard, and stars Eric Balfour, Lou Taylor Pucci, Henry Thomas, Jenna Dewan, Summer Glau, Jamie Thomas King, Kevin Alejandro, Tanner Beard, James Lafferty and Robert Buckley.
Here's the synopsis:
In 1870s Texas, a ruthless bounty hunter and an Irish desperado flee the law with a young criminal claiming to possess a treasure more valuable than gold.

Eric Balfour and Summer Glau Battle The Legend of Hell’s Gate
22 March 2012 8:46 AM, PDT | Beyond Hollywood | See recent Beyond Hollywood news »
I love me some Westerns. But nowadays the only people who make Westerns are hard-up for a decent budget, so the results are always kinda, well, not so hot. But director Tanner Beard’s “The Legend of Hell’s Gate: An American Conspiracy” (not sure we actually need the “An American Conspiracy” part there, but what do I know) looks like it might have a decent budget. After all, it does have Eric Balfour, Summer Glau, and Jenna Dewan-Tatum in the cast. Wouldn’t it be hilarious if Glau started karate kicking people in the movie? I mean, that would be awesome. Don’t expect it to happen, alas. Take a gander (as they used to say back in the day) at some images, posters and a trailer for the upcoming Western.
