Cheerfully oafish action hero Duke Nukem returns for a 20th Anniversary World Tour. Here's a trailer for the Duke Nukem 3D remake...
Just because it took well over a decade for Duke Nukem Forever to finally see the light of day doesn't mean that developer Gearbox Software doesn't still have a lot of love for one of gaming's premiere foul-mouthed, catchphrase-spewing, stripper loving action hero. In fact, the developer is even planning on giving Duke a proper 20th-anniversary celebration via the release of a new version of the 1996 classic Duke Nukem 3D.
Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary World Tour not only features a very detailed title but comes with this fancy new trailer that makes a rather compelling Nsfw argument that Duke Nukem should be the next President of The United States:
Along with the entirety of the original Duke Nukem 3D experience, World Tour will feature...

Late last week, news broke that gaming’s most notable meathead, Duke Nukem, was possibly making his grand return. After a week of anticipation, we finally got our answer, as The Duke is indeed returning, although not in the way some expected.
Rather than attempt a new entry in the franchise, Gearbox Publishing has instead announced Duke Nukem 3D: 20th Anniversary Edition World Tour. The re-release of the classic 1996 shooter will hit Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Windows PC next month.
Originally developed by 3D Realms, Duke Nukem 3D has the titular hero defend Earth from an alien invasion. In between trips to the strip club, our hero kicks and shoots his way through an army of extraterrestrials and mutated Pig Cops. The title’s over-the-top violence and controversial humor played well upon release, but has deteriorated over the years, as evidenced by the less than stellar reception to Duke Nukem Forever.

Anyone who saw Lee Daniel’s: The Butler last year will recall David Oyelowo’s stunning turn as a young Civil Rights activist, who clashes with his dutiful father (Forest Whitaker). The classically-trained U.K. native has since taken on a string of notable roles in films like Interstellar, A Most Violent Year and Selma - which features his lauded portrayal of Martin Luther King, Jr.
Oyelowo’s mesmerizing take on the icon manages to encapsulate his unflinching public persona and his moments of frailty. King may have had a gift for delivering poetic calls to action but he was also surrounded by sorrow and grappled with the threat of death daily.
Directed by Ava DuVernay, Selma illustrates the organization and execution of the legendary walk from Selma to Montgomery that led to the Voting Rights Act of 1965. The haunting drama marks the actor’s second collaboration with DuVernay following...

Beverly Hills — Get ready to hear a lot more about actor David Oyelowo. As Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in Ava DuVernay's "Selma," which sounded a thunder clap upon arrival at this year's AFI Fest, he exhibits a presence and a commitment that is sure to keep him in the thick of the Best Actor Oscar discussion. And according to him, it was sort of pre-ordained. Oyelowo is a relaxing personality to be around, prim, proper, but thoughtful and inviting. He spoke at length recently about coveting the role of Dr. King and his desire to imbue his own sense of faith with a character, a man, who himself was clearly so driven by a higher power. It was that higher power, Oyelowo says, who told him he would one day take on the role, even when other directors weren't so sure. The journey of this project has been a long one for him.

Beverly Hills — Last week saw the world premiere of Ava DuVernay's "Selma" at AFI Fest after it had been advertised as a 30-minute footage presentation. But there was a lot more to the story behind the scenes. The plan had long been for Paramount to drop the full film as a surprise to the crowd that turned out for the presentation, assuming DuVernay could get the edit where she wanted it to be in the days leading up. Then, the festival dropped a shocker on both festival attendees and those involved with the "Selma" event: Clint Eastwood would take advantage of the Veteran's Day holiday to premiere his "American Sniper" as a secret screening right after Team "Selma" cleared the Egyptian Theatre. The pressure was on. In the end, though, it all worked out. "Selma" played like gangbusters with a deafening standing ovation and a lively post-screening Q&A moderated by actress Alfre Woodard,...

For this Thanksgiving week edition of Lone Star Cinema, I selected an influential football film from the mid-aughts. Before the acclaimed series Friday Night Lights started shooting in town, the 2004 film, starred Billy Bob Thornton as coach to a Texas high school football team. Based on the same-titled book by Buzz Bissinger, Friday Night Lights depicts the 1988 season of the Permian Panthers of Odessa, from the promising pre-season to their challenging finish at state.
The movie places quick scenes from the lives of several of the senior players in between montages of the Friday night action in Odessa's Ratliff Stadium. Derek Luke (Antwone Fisher) plays Boobie Miles, an assured running back who is the team's star. I'd argue Luke gives the best performance in the movie. Midway through Friday Night Lights, his character faces an obstacle he may not be able to overcome, and Luke aptly conveys Boobie's bluster, might and heartbreak.

Swedish actor Stellan Skarsgård's international resume speaks volumes about his versatility—from cinephile faves like Breaking the Waves and Insomnia to glossier American fare like Good Will Hunting and Mamma Mia!. (Ronin might fall in both camps.) His latest film, a bleakly funny comedy entitled A Somewhat Gentle Man, opens in New York on January 14:
Ulrik (Skarsgard) is a somewhat gentle man, as far as gangsters go. Reluctantly back on the streets following a stint in prison, Ulrik's boss greets him with open arms and a plan to settle an old score. With a demented sense of professional pride, Ulrik's boss sets in motion a plan to right the wrong done to his star employee. The problem is Ulrik would rather go about his own business, however mundane, than get involved with his ragtag colleagues again. This dark feel good comedy delivers laughs and gasps in equal measure.

Here is a bit of info on Lee Daniel's next film. Monday night: Oscars? What Oscars? Daniels didn't spend the evening prepping for the big night. Instead, he worked diligently on his upcoming civil rights film, Selma. "I had to do a lot of homework on the script, and I spent a lot of time writing. I feel like I'm caught up a little bit with that," he says. Daniels hopes to start shooting the film in May, and for him, it's crunch time. "I have to really start casting the movie because we're shooting it soon. The only person I've nailed in for sure is Hugh Jackman. It's all over the place." For Daniels, work has been a welcome distraction from the madness of awards season. Poor guy. Nominated for multiple Oscars And prepping for his next film, which features one of the hottest actors in Hollywood? I feel sorry for him,...

With the Oscars only a few days away, everyone is pumping the nominees for information as to where they'll go next. USA Today caught up with Lee Daniels to discuss the glittery buzz and his upcoming projects, one of which is Selma, a film centered on the Selma to Montgomery civil rights marches of 1965.
Daniels has favored work on the Selma script over pre-Oscar festivities, and he's about to start casting. You'd expect the plum roles to go first -- Dr. Martin Luther King figures fairly heavily in the history of the marches, as do figures such as James Bevel, Hosea Williams, and John Lewis. But oddly, Daniels revealed that the only actor he has signed is someone who can't play any of the lead roles: Hugh Jackman.
It's not at all clear who Jackman will play. It's possible he could be James Reeb, a Unitarian minister who marched for...
