    http://uk.ign.com/articles/2018/04/03/2001-a-space-odyssey-celebrates-its-50th-anniversary-with-70mm-4k-re-release

    '50 years ago, Director Stanly Kubrick released his groundbreaking sci-fi epic, 2001: A Space Odyssey. To celebrate this momentous anniversary, Warner Bros. Pictures will debut an unrestored 70mm print at the 2018 Cannes Film Festival on May 12.

    Don't worry, if you're not able to make it to the south of France for the debut, Warner Bros will be re-releasing the film in theaters on May 18. There will also be a 4K HDR Blu-ray release sometime in the fall of 2018 from Warner Bros. Home Entertainment, which The Dark Knight director Christopher Nolan acted as an advisor on for the film's restoration process...'


    Happy Birthday to one of the greatest films ever made, I don't think I'll make it to Cannes though I'll definitely be buying the 4K Bluray

    Fantastic, that made my day!
    Agree that it does look damn good. They have taken the effort on this one, it seems. Love the bit with the French cyclists! :))

    (and Olga K, of course. She elevates any film she's in!)

    Johnny is stealing our Bond women. First Rosamund Pike, now Olga K!

    Bond should steal one of them back. ( Olga, pretty please)

    Problems continue for Terry Gilliam's The Man Who Killed Don Quixote, which started production in 1998, as the film now hits legal problems between Gilliam and the distributing studio, resulting in the film being forbidden from being released anywhere (including festivals like Cannes next month) until a compromise can be found.
    What the ...... I´m not even sure I´m going to like that film, but this mess of a production history alone makes me want to see it.

    First confirmation for Cannes 2018: Everybody Knows, the new film from director Asghar Farhadi ('A Separation', 'The Salesman'), will open the festival on May 8. The film stars Javier Bardem, Penelope Cruz and Ricardo Darin.

    Both Bardem and Cruz are co-starring in another film coming in April/May: Loving Pablo.

    Can't watch the trailer for Johnny English right now, but I love the title! A Pink Panther reference, I guess.

    First thing I thought of. I did read somewhere that Rowan Atkinson is a Peter Sellers fan, so that might explain it.

    Always thought Atkinson would’ve been a terrific Clouseau.

    Agreed. Beyond the physical comedy, he would'vd been great at portraying Clouseau's self-importance and his attempts at looking dignified while being generally clumsy.

    The Pink Panther films had some things in common with the Bond films, and Johnny English likely channels both franchises.

    I couldn't agree more. Well stated, sir.

    Thank you. Just wanted to add that while Steve Martin was not that bad as Clouseau, he made him a tad too obnoxious and as a result he didn't feel pathetic enough, which Sellers' Clouseau did, in a strange way that enhanced the comedy. Same with Benigni, though both actors were obviously doing their own thing as they weren't Sellers.

    All the best comedy has a hint of tragedy about it, which is one of the reasons I like the Johnny English films; he knows, deep down under all the posturing, that he's not actually a very good spy.

    Just checked the trailer; pretty funny! Best parts: the cyclists, VR and the airbag. And Bough is back!

    I think I'll be catching this one in theaters.

    This poster really begs for the audience to instantly come and buy tickets to see the film.

    What's the matter with me, I just came out of Ready Player One and already feel like watching it again. I didn't expect such a positive impact.

    Great poster! Love all the details they've manage to squeeze in.

    Early buzz for Rampage:

    ''Rampage is big, loud and fun as hell. Especially touching to see the Harambe in memoriam card during the closing credits. @TheRock’s got another massive hit on his hands! #RampageMovie''

    ''RAMPAGE was a mindless, popcorn action flick, in all the best ways. the VFX looked great, and watching the creatures destroy a full city was pretty awesome. Jeffery Dean Morgan steals the movie, only negative I have is the villain is a little to over the top.''

    ''#RampageMovie knows exactly what it is and makes no bones about it. Stupid stupid fun, guys. Have some drinks and go see it next week when it comes out. Super entertaining''

    ''RAMPAGE is the ultimate guilty pleasure. Brad Peyton has created a big budget B movie & Dwayne Johnson delivers his most outrageous performance to date. #Rampage is the ultimate monster movie and is non-stop campy fun. Did I mention that Dwayne Johnson fights a giant flying wolf?''
