Costume Designer Michael Kaplan Confirmed for Star Wars VII
5 hours ago | Clothes on Film | See recent Clothes on Film news »
Securing perhaps the biggest costume job going at the moment, Michael Kaplan has officially been chosen as costume designer for Star Wars Episode VII. It was on his IMDb page for a short while (later removed), but now the appointment has been corroborated by the man himself. “I am very excited to be working on Star Wars” Kaplan confirms exclusively to Clothes on Film “I’m so looking forward to collaborating, once again, with Jj.”
Kaplan is now director J.J. Abrams’ regular costume designer having worked with him on Mission Impossible – Ghost Protocol, Star Trek and Star Trek Into Darkness. Evidently after two terms with Abrams on Star Trek, Kaplan has the sci-fi chops necessary to tackle arguably a denser franchise with even greater fan expectation. Get it right and he could have an Oscar to put alongside his BAFTA statuette and Costume Designers Guild awards, get it wrong and »

Costume Designer Michael Kaplan on Star Trek Into Darkness
16 May 2013 10:16 PM, PDT | Clothes on Film | See recent Clothes on Film news »
Michael Kaplan’s career is one film after another of “wow, he did that?” cinema: Blade Runner, Flashdance, Seven, Fight Club, Burlesque, plus dozens more. Kaplan’s connection to Star Trek began as costume designer on J.J. Abrams’ reboot in 2009, and now he is back for the sequel. Despite admitting he was no expert in the world of Star Trek before signing on, his work on both movies has been praised; particularly the Enterprise crew uniforms (that reoccurring Starfleet pattern is a classy touch).
Here chatting exclusively to Clothes on Film, Michael Kaplan explains his approach to costuming Star Trek Into Darkness (out everywhere this week).

8 More Myths About Classic Movies You’ll Be Shocked To Hear Are False
16 May 2013 9:47 PM, PDT | Obsessed with Film | See recent Obsessed with Film news »
If you’re surfing the Internet, odds are you love a good trivia list. I’ve yet to meet someone who won’t devour as much interesting, but ultimately useless information as possible, just for that surprisingly deep feeling of knowledge. The only thing more exciting than a fact, is the fact that the previous fact is false. A few weeks ago, I wrote an article with just such factoids, but in the research for it I found a lot more than the original eight I published. Some of these facts are truly riveting, so for your reading pleasure here’s eight more myths we’ve delightfully bust open for you.
If anything, some of these myths are more common than those in the first list, so you can delight in proving your seemingly film savvy friends wrong.
Warning: There are a couple of references to the ending and overall mythos of Blade Runner, »

"Remember Me" Preview -- Nilin's Combat Remix
16 May 2013 11:55 AM, PDT | MTV Multiplayer | See recent MTV Multiplayer news »
June 4th is coming up soon so Capcom and Dontnod are showing off their version of near future with the dystopian, memory hacking game, "Remember Me" hear in New York. Unfortunately, I didn't have enough time to check out the full demo as I was still nostalgie-tripping over "DuckTales" but I did get a few hands on moments with some combat and explored a bit of the seedy underbelly of Neo Paris.
Agile, Fluid Combat
Real talk: "Batman: Arkham Asylum" changed brawlers for the better ( I know -- bold stance to take). I'm not saying Dontnod ripped the idea straight from the Dark Knight but the similarities are hard to miss. Nilin is a very agile brawler, easily transitioning punches and kicks effectively from enemy to enemy. The section I played focused on melee characters, so I'm not sure how it'll be fleshed out against enemies packing heat. Additionally, »

Reader Spotlight: Peter Chan
16 May 2013 5:37 AM, PDT | FilmExperience | See recent FilmExperience news »
We're getting to know the Film Experience community one-by-one. It's taking a long time, bless you! Today we're talking with Peter, a script supervisor.
Peter working on the set of a movie!
Nathaniel: When and why did you start reading Tfe?
Peter: I was referred to it from Kenneth in (212) and thought Tfe catered to the fun side of film I adored and come awards season... glued. I haven't looked back.
Nathaniel: You work in the industry, right? What's your favorite part of the biz?
Peter: Yeah. I've been a script supervisor primarily for independent features for close to 8 years. It's still strange to me that I get paid to do what I do. Though there are definitely bad days, I generally love what I do. It's great to be on the scene and be so close to the process. My favorite part of this nutty business on the independent »

The James Clayton Column: No blockbuster season, no flops and no bombs?
16 May 2013 2:07 AM, PDT | Den of Geek | See recent Den of Geek news »
Feature James Clayton 17 May 2013 - 05:48
As the summer movie season brings speculation about flops and bombs, James argues that, for viewers, there's no such thing as failure...
We're now well into blockbuster season, and the rest of the summer lies before us bright with big screen promise. The tentpole features are stacked like tenpins on the shiny stage, and you're eyeing them up from afar and you're wearing jaunty shoes. Which ones will fall and which ones will remain standing proudly once the turn's been rolled and the tallies have been totalled up?
The bowling metaphor is ill-fitting and awful (even more ill-fitting and awful than the shoes) so I apologise for chuckin' it up. Nevertheless, if you view it from a certain angle (probably the gutter) the summer movie season does look like a game. It's a kitschy game that's subject to quirks of fate and chance, and it's all about the numbers. »

Review: Metal Made Flesh: Flesh
13 May 2013 3:11 PM, PDT | Shadowlocked | See recent Shadowlocked news »
Metal Made Flesh is a trilogy of illustrated cyberpunk noir novellas from the Subversive Comics stable that revolve around three assassins, each bound by fate to a mysterious cyborg known as Clay. The first to be released, Flesh is actually the third book of the cycle but in common with the other two, Metal and Made, is a standalone tale that can be read out of sequence.
What follows is an entertaining and gripping story of the hit and its aftermath which, perhaps unsurprisingly, doesn't quite go to plan. Written by Jeremy Biggs, Flesh is solidly constructed in an engaging noir style that brings to mind the more fantastical fiction of Harlan Ellison, and the world of Tuaoni unashamedly has its roots in the worlds of Blade Runner and 2000Ad. Griznor's Funhouse in particular is something that wouldn't be out of place in Mega City One, and works well because of this, »
