Watch This Fantastic Live-Action Metroid Short Film

One of the great reveals in video game history was that Samus Aran, the exoskeleton-covered warrior star of Nintendo's Metroid, was a woman. This fact was made clear in the end credits to gamers who finished the journey quick enough, when they finally got a chance to see Aran without her armor. And it turns out that Aran, the alien-slaying, armor-clad badass was inspired by one of film's greatest female warriors—Ellen Ripley (Sigourney Weaver) from Ridley Scott's Alien. Like Ripley in Alien,

Watch This New Girls Teaser and Get Excited About Season 5

The trials, tribulations and humiliations of Hannah Horvath (Lena Dunham) and her closest friends will continue in season five of Dunham's brilliant Girls. In 25 seconds, the new teaser packs a lot of funny into a small package—the package in this case being Hannah's body, as she dances 'as if no one's watching' in a class that includes at least one person she knows very well.

Girls returns for season five on February 21, and Dunham has said that the series will likely end after the sixth season.

The Artistry of 007: Bond’s 7 Best Posters

With the highly-anticipated Spectre opening this week, it feels only fair to pay homage to the films (and the Bonds) that came before it. In a franchise where looks are nearly everything, it’s fitting that Bond’s posters have become nearly as important to the look and feel of each outing as his perfectly tailored suit. With 23 films to choose from, the key art for the films runs the gamut from astonishing highs to dismal lows,

How Composer Daniel Pemberton Created 3 Scores for Steve Jobs

We spoke to Steve Jobs composer Daniel Pemberton, whose previous work includes Guy Ritchie’s The Man From U.N.C.L.E, about the joys of working with a director, Danny Boyle, who’s prepared to take risks, and the challenge of complementing screenwriter Aaron Sorkin’s fast-paced dialogue.

What were your original impressions of the script when you were approached about the scoring?

The first thing that happened was I had a meeting with Danny- which got moved around a lot because of the hoo-ha that was going on behind the scenes.

Justin Kurzel’s Macbeth is the Most Heartfelt Horror Film Ever Made

The story of Macbeth is certainly no stranger to adaptation. In fact, the Scottish play belongs to an impressive tradition of auteurist variation, including Orson Welles’ notoriously troubled 1948 production, Roman Polanski’s 1971 film and Kurosawa’s well-loved  in 1957.

Any Shakespearean adaptation carries with it piles of textual and philosophical baggage, requiring not only a new spin on a well-worn story but a justification for a new iteration.
