These Phantom Thread Camera Tests are a Master Class in Filmmaking
Who knew camera tests could be so beautiful? I guess if those camera tests are being done by Paul Thomas Anderson and his crew for Phantom Thread, backed by a score by Jonny Greenwood, we all should have known.

Westworld Creators Reveal All of Season 2 Spoilers in new Video
If ever there was a recent series that revealed fans in all their obsessive, undeniably clever sleuthing, it was the first season of Westworld. The first season of HBO’s brilliant sci-fi western, created by Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy, played out along (spoiler alert, for Pete’s sake) multiple timelines, and for the average fan the show was consistently surprising and often mind blowing. Yet for the super fan (or the super sleuth), Westworld presented an irresistible puzzle that many ended up solving well before the epic finale.
The Beyond Skyline Composer on Making Aliens Sound as Big as They Look
Captain America: Civil War star Frank Grillo will not be appearing in the Avengers’ showdown against Thanos later this month, but he’s been busy battling aliens of his own. Grillo leads the human fight against an intergalactic invasion in Beyond Skyline. The film is something of a family drama with Mark (Grillo) trying to reconnect with his son Trent (Jonny Weston) during the chaos. Composer Nathan Whitehead wrote the eerie and epic score that weaves together a tense father-son dynamic with colossal creatures.
Jessica Jones Costume Designer on Losing the Cape in Favor of Leather & Denim
Krysten Ritter wears jeans for every scene she plays as the star of Netflix series Jessica Jones. Technically a super-hero capable of jumping off skyscrapers and landing on the sidewalk without a scratch, the hard-drinking private eye from Hell’s Kitchen has no patience for the tights/cape/mask routine. Instead, Ritter’s character is dressed by costume designer Elisabeth Vastola in boots, jeans and motorcycle jackets that owe more to Marlon Brando’s iconic Wild One rebel couture than cartoony costumes.

This Avengers: Infinity War TV Spot Has a Ton of Thrilling new Footage
We know what you’re thinking—you figure that when a studio is nearing the release of a film the size of Avengers: Infinity War, they can flood the zone with a ton of new TV spots without actually showing that much new footage. Yet, that hasn’t really been the case with this film, perhaps because of the aforementioned size of it. With a record number of superheroes and a massive, decade-in-the-making battle at its core,
Our Favorite Moments from Chadwick Boseman’s Saturday Night Live Debut
