Six New Django Unchained Images

See Jamie Foxx, Christoph Waltz and Leonard DiCaprio in action in six new stills from DJANGO UNCHAINED, the latest film from Academy Award®-winning writer and director Quentin Tarantino.







Set in the South two years before the Civil War, DJANGO UNCHAINED stars Academy Award®-winnerJamie Foxx as Django, a slave whose brutal history with his former owners lands him face-to-face with German-born bounty hunter Dr. King Schultz (Academy Award®-winner Christoph Waltz). Schultz is on the trail of the murderous Brittle brothers, and only Django can lead him to his bounty. The unorthodox Schultz acquires Django with a promise to free him upon the capture of the Brittles – dead or alive. Success leads Schultz to free Django, though the two men choose not to go their separate ways. Instead, Schultz seeks out the South’s most wanted criminals with Django by his side. Honing vital hunting skills, Django remains focused on one goal: finding and rescuing Broomhilda (Kerry Washington), the wife he lost to the slave trade long ago. Django and Schultz’s search ultimately leads them to Calvin Candie (Academy Award®-nominee Leonardo DiCaprio), the proprietor of “Candyland,” an infamous plantation where slaves are groomed by trainer Ace Woody (Kurt Russell) to battle each other for sport. Exploring the compound under false pretenses, Django and Schultz arouse the suspicion of Stephen (Academy Award®-nominee Samuel L. Jackson), Candie’s trusted house slave. Their moves are marked, and a treacherous organization closes in on them. If Django and Schultz are to escape with Broomhilda, they must choose between independence and solidarity, between sacrifice and survival…
Written and directed by Academy Award®-winner Quentin Tarantino, DJANGO UNCHAINED is produced by Stacey Sher, Reginald Hudlin and Pilar Savone. The executive producers are Harvey and Bob Weinstein, Michael Shamberg, Shannon McIntosh, and James Skotchdopole.
DJANGO UNCHAINED will be released in the U.S. on December 25, 2012, and internationally by Sony Pictures.

International Geek Pride Day is Geek Art Appreciation Day

Lo and behold, May 25th is coming and we’re all excited about the weekend that’s coming with it. If you’re not familiar with what’ll be happening on the 25th, it’s basically the annual celebration of the past two decades’ science fiction – from Star Wars and Star Trek, to Battlestar Gallactica.  
We’ve seen Star Wars, Star Trek, and LOTR appear in different media – from books to MMORPGs, and other marketing platforms. These franchises are already part of the growing and rich tradition of geeks to seek out adventure and excitement without sweating too much.
Since we’re going all-out geek this weekend, we’ve decided to make a tribute post about these beloved stories, shows, and movies. Here are some of our favorite characters recreated and given new life by different creative minds and fans, check them out:


Star Wars
First shown on May 25th 1977, Star Wars gained popularity and immediately pushed George Lucas into Hall of Fame status. Since its showing in the late 70s, Star Wars’ popularity has expanded from simple cameos and references to feature-length parodies by different TV series and producers.

Battlestar Galactica
A year after Star Wars was released came the original Battlestar Galactica. When a re-imagined series came out it became as epic as Star Trek, but more realistic than its earlier incarnation. BSG’s story line is pretty interesting as it touches religion, morality, and current events.

Lord of the Rings
Every other story you’re reading right now should call LOTR its godfather. Thanks to J.R.R. Tolkien, we now enjoy different literature that ranges from romance and fantasy, to cyberpunk. LOTR’s epic scope and the years Tolkien spent to create Middle-Earth gave birth to what we now know as High Fantasy.

Discworld
Terry Pratchett’s Discworld gave us the humorous touch in fantasy (where everything is pretty high-strung). Pratchett parodied different historical figures and events in the series. Real-world issues and references to other fictional works are also recurring themes in the Discworld series.

Doctor Who
Considered as the longest running television show (though it was cancelled in 1989, had an unsuccessful revival in 1996, it was eventually relaunched in 2005), Doctor Who was first aired in 1963 and is still in production today. Doctor Who has been so influential in mainstream media, that it’s been referenced in various science fiction shows and sitcoms.

 These are the characters, stories, and shows that we’ve given tribute to by staying up late just to catch the latest episode, hanging poster prints in our rooms, and attending comicons. These are the stories that we’ve followed and will continue to follow, and we take pride on that fact. Geek Pride Day is about our dedication to the stories we love, not the prestige it gives to us.
