Let me preface this by saying I’m from Texas. So, there is a slight bias towards all things [...]]]> http://wehavebeards.com/2011/06/17/criminally-overlooked-tv-show-friday-night-lights/feed/ 2 http://wehavebeards.com/2011/06/01/official-girl-with-the-dragon-tattoo-trailer-is-released/ http://wehavebeards.com/2011/06/01/official-girl-with-the-dragon-tattoo-trailer-is-released/#comments Wed, 01 Jun 2011 22:15:14 +0000 Red Beard http://wehavebeards.com/?p=2583 After watching the pirated, bootleg, red band trailer for this film. Finally, an official green band version of David Fincher‘s Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. Looks pretty bad ass to me. And I wasn’t a big fan of the original trilogy. Plus, I’ve heard terrible things about the books from friends. Check it out and [...]]]> http://wehavebeards.com/2011/06/01/official-girl-with-the-dragon-tattoo-trailer-is-released/feed/ 1 http://wehavebeards.com/2011/05/31/two-international-films-ripe-for-american-remakes-frances-point-blank-and-south-koreas-the-yellow-sea/ http://wehavebeards.com/2011/05/31/two-international-films-ripe-for-american-remakes-frances-point-blank-and-south-koreas-the-yellow-sea/#comments Tue, 31 May 2011 19:50:17 +0000 Red Beard http://wehavebeards.com/?p=2562 As much as we all complain about the quality of films and the reliance of existing properties like comics, sequels and foreign remakes, it’s important to understand that Hollywood is a business. There are artists that still make movies. There are artists within the Hollywood system, but for the most part it is full of [...]]]> http://wehavebeards.com/2011/05/31/two-international-films-ripe-for-american-remakes-frances-point-blank-and-south-koreas-the-yellow-sea/feed/ 2 http://wehavebeards.com/2011/04/14/trailer-for-rise-of-the-planet-of-the-apes/ http://wehavebeards.com/2011/04/14/trailer-for-rise-of-the-planet-of-the-apes/#comments Thu, 14 Apr 2011 15:38:12 +0000 Red Beard http://wehavebeards.com/?p=2555 I remember in high school, me and a friend watched all of the films in the ape series in one sitting. The one that always stood out for me was Conquest of the Planet of the Apes. That shot of Caesar through the flames as the other apes terrorize the humans has stuck with me.

The only one, and it’s really kind of sad. I thought it was a pretty good adaptation of the comic. I liked the Dawn of the Dead remake. I think the zombies from that film are almost as scary as the 28 Days Later zombies. 300 was [...]]]> http://wehavebeards.com/2011/03/30/sucker-punch-plays-like-a-music-video-incoherent-and-overly-sexual/feed/ 12 http://wehavebeards.com/2011/03/13/tron-the-next-day-short-film/ http://wehavebeards.com/2011/03/13/tron-the-next-day-short-film/#comments Sun, 13 Mar 2011 16:33:13 +0000 Red Beard http://wehavebeards.com/?p=2530 Check out this short film from the Tron: Legacy Blu-Ray.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Rainn Wilson and Natalie Portman made a little film called Hesher, that premiered at last year’s Sundance Film Festival. Little has been seen or heard of it since then.

This of course isn’t the first time that actors have made TV commercials, but there seems to be a trend for actors to wear bald caps and make-up so they look loser-ish. The Jim Beam commercial is more serious [...]]]> http://wehavebeards.com/2011/02/13/willem-dafoe-in-jim-beam-commercial/feed/ 1 http://wehavebeards.com/2011/02/12/russell-brand-as-arthur/ http://wehavebeards.com/2011/02/12/russell-brand-as-arthur/#comments Sat, 12 Feb 2011 17:18:39 +0000 Red Beard http://wehavebeards.com/?p=2518 http://wehavebeards.com/2011/02/12/russell-brand-as-arthur/feed/ 6 http://wehavebeards.com/2011/02/10/x-men-first-class-trailer-hits-online/ http://wehavebeards.com/2011/02/10/x-men-first-class-trailer-hits-online/#comments Thu, 10 Feb 2011 21:53:32 +0000 Red Beard http://wehavebeards.com/?p=2509 http://wehavebeards.com/2011/02/10/x-men-first-class-trailer-hits-online/feed/ 8
