Forget Red Apple cigarettes, because the connections go deeper than that.

After the jump, the Hateful Eight director discusses the Quentin Tarantino universe....

The 25 Best Manipulated Versions Of Studio Logos By Josh Spiegel/April 28, 2017 8:00 am EST Studio logos serve a general purpose for any movie. They can suggest a type of film – people have a basic idea of what a Disney movie entails – or simply a sense of pomp and circumstance.

Warner Bros Home Entertainment Buys Flixster And Rotten Tomatoes By Russ Fischer/May 4, 2011 8:34 am EST Now a movie studio owns the most popular review aggregation website. Is that strange? It might be strange. A press release went out this morning announcing that Warner Bros. Home Entertainment Group (which “brings together Warner Bros. Entertainment’s home video, digital distribution, interactive entertainment, technical operations and anti-piracy businesses in order to maximize current and next-generation distribution scenarios”) has purchased the movie-ranking website Flixster and, consequently, Rotten Tomatoes....

Which ‘Jurassic Park’ Quote Inspired ‘Jurassic World’? Which One Will Inspire ‘Jurassic World 2’? By Angie Han/Sept. 21, 2015 12:00 pm EST As a sequel, Jurassic World is naturally beholden to Jurassic Park in a number of ways. It expands on the mythology established by Steven Spielberg’s original film, and calls back to it in ways both obvious and unexpected.

‘Sausage Party’ Will Screen At SXSW As A Work-In-Progress Cut By Jacob Hall/March 1, 2016 11:30 am EST Every film festival has its unique identity. Programmers from all backgrounds and walks of life come together to create a voice for a fest, selecting and pursuing movies that they believe serve their particular slice of film fanatics. And while it would be unfair to to reduce a film festival as unique and special and varied as SXSW to “Yeah, they the exact kind of outfit that would take a chance on an R-rated animated comedy about talking food,” it’s true....

Weber burst onto the scene in 2009 with the screenplay for (500) Days of Summer, and since then they’ve made waves with small-scale, intimate love stories like The Spectacular Now and The Fault in Our Stars.
