The First Trailer For Quentin Tarantino's THE HATEFUL EIGHT Arrives!

Director Quentin Tarantino's latest film has quite the task to live up to with the impending releases of The Revenant, Point Break and Star Wars: The Force Awakens all releasing within a week part of each other. However, as extravagant as The Hateful Eight has been in the past few years up to now with the past several months giving us stills and a few posters to tease us with, it doesn't appear to lessen the excitement much. Taratino didn't miss a beat with his previous work on Django Unchained, so with this, he's clearly in his element, and with a limited ceremonious Christmas release on 70mm Widescreen format, anyone looking forward to a glorious and gritty return to form in an awesome western will sure get it.

SYNOPSIS:

In THE HATEFUL EIGHT, set six or eight or twelve years after the Civil War, a stagecoach hurtles through the wintry Wyoming landscape. The passengers, bounty hunter John Ruth and his fugitive Daisy Domergue, race towards the town of Red Rock where Ruth, known in these parts as “The Hangman,” will bring Domergue to justice. Along the road, they encounter two strangers: Major Marquis Warren, a black former union soldier turned infamous bounty hunter, and Chris Mannix, a southern renegade who claims to be the town’s new Sheriff. Losing their lead on the blizzard, Ruth, Domergue, Warren and Mannix seek refuge at Minnie’s Haberdashery, a stagecoach stopover on a mountain pass. When they arrive at Minnie’s, they are greeted not by the proprietor but by four unfamiliar faces. Bob, who’s taking care of Minnie’s while she’s visiting her mother, is holed up with Oswaldo Mobray, the hangman of Red Rock, cow-puncher Joe Gage, and Confederate General Sanford Smithers. As the storm overtakes the mountainside stopover, our eight travelers come to learn they may not make it to Red Rock after all…

The brand new trailer has arrived and a standard release is also pending in January. Watch the trailer below and be sure to research exactly which theaters will be screening the version you want to watch in the next four months.

Ginder Factory Announces New PULP FICTION Custom Poster Line

With cult director favorite, Quentin Tarantino on his way to San Diego Comic-Con 2015 to present his latest grisled western feat, The Hateful Eight, I suppose now is an excellent time to present a humbling lookback of his career dating back to his earlier resume at Miramax. Leave that to Ginder Factory L.L.C. who will be rolling out a batch of custom posters inspired by his 1994 crime , Pulp Fiction.

For those not in the know, the gist of the film is a mash-up of intertwining stories that intersect between a bookie, his two henchmen, a girl and a washed up boxer in scenarios that see them at some of their worst odds. It's a story of love, drugs, crime, close encounters with the surreal, spiritual enlightment, and a treasure worth more than what anyone may be worth owning, and there is plenty of blood spilled, broken bones and egos throughout. But more importantly, it's a story of second chances, one taught brilliantly enough in that it helped Tarantino gain the cult status he's since earned.

I can see why this would deserve its own poster line. Oh, and by all means, you can buy these now at the official website.

Ginder Factory, LLC features licensed on-set photography from “Pulp Fiction” to order as never-before-sold custom posters, art prints and canvases. Located on GinderFactory.com, the site will also provide custom wall décor for Miramax titles “Kill Bill Volume 1”, “Kill Bill Volume 2” and “Jackie Brown.” These titles will be released later this summer. 

Ginder Factory, a custom wall art licensee for Miramax, LLC, will release available prints in installments throughout the summer, highlighting the most iconic scenes from these Quentin Tarantino films. 

Customers will also be able to customize their products by adding classic quotes, official film logos and billing blocks, digital frames, and more. Product prices range from $10 to $150, all dependent on the size and product chosen: poster, art print, or canvas. 

“Given that just about every ‘Pulp Fiction’ scene is as memorable as the next, we couldn’t have imagined a better film to feature,” Danny McKenzie, creative director for Ginder Factory, said. “We’re able to feature scenes that go way beyond the industry norm. Quentin Tarantino fans are going to appreciate the expanded selection and custom features.” 

Although licensed “Pulp Fiction” imagery has been released as poster art, the depth of imagery and variety of high-end print products are revolutionary to the film’s consumer merchandise. 

The company’s tagline “Own the Scene” demonstrates their product vision. Rather than selecting from stale, mass-produced poster imagery, Ginder Factory offers a wide selection of on-set photography so that fans can connect with specific characters and scenes—not just the movie as a whole. 

“Back in college, all we wanted was a little variety when looking for Pulp Fiction posters to hang on our walls… something that we personally connected with from the film,” Virgil Bonifazi, director of operations for Ginder Factory, said. “As fans, we couldn’t be happier our dream is coming true.” 

Launched in October 2014, GinderFactory.com also features custom prints from Miramax films such as “Good Will Hunting”, “Gangs of New York”, “Scream”, and more. Ginder Factory, LLC continues to explore new licensing IP to feature its evolving custom experience for novelty print on-demand merchandise.

Three Of Tarantino's 'HATEFUL EIGHT' Make This Week's EW Cover

Talk of retirement is what looms in the wake of what lies ahead for acclaimed director Quentin Tarantino's tenth film, The Hateful Eight. For this, you have to wonder just what it will all mean for you when the film releases later this year. If you know Tarantino's work, by now you've probably fallen in love with either one or SEVERAL of his films, and I can only imagine how it will feel after the end credits myself.

Alas, EW forwarded its latest coverage on the film with a word from the cast discussing 

Tarantino's inspiration for the film, speaking of a more intimately-toned flick compared to his 2012 Blaxploitation ode, Django Unchained and the World War 2-set revenge remake, Inglorious Basterds, headlined by characters in a room who don't trust each other. This, on top of mentions of it bearing a western Iceman Cometh vibe. Interesting!

EW's coverage also unveiled its Friday magazine cover featuring Samuel L. Jackson, Jennifer Jason Leigh and Kurt Russell as three of our 'Hateful' cast. A teaser went viral a few months ago annoucing the film and you can find some version of it somewhere on YouTube as it seems it's not officially available just yet. In the meantime, check out the cover below the official synopsis. Walton Goggins, Tim Roth, Michael Madsen, Channing Tatum, Demian Bichir and Bruce Dern also star.

In THE HATEFUL EIGHT, set six or eight or twelve years after the Civil War, a stagecoach hurtles through the wintry Wyoming landscape. The passengers, bounty hunter John Ruth (Russell) and his fugitive Daisy Domergue (Leigh), race towards the town of Red Rock where Ruth, known in these parts as “The Hangman,” will bring Domergue to justice. Along the road, they encounter two strangers: Major Marquis Warren (Jackson), a black former union soldier turned infamous bounty hunter, and Chris Mannix (Goggins), a southern renegade who claims to be the town’s new Sheriff. Losing their lead on the blizzard, Ruth, Domergue, Warren and Mannix seek refuge at Minnie’s Haberdashery, a stagecoach stopover on a mountain pass. When they arrive at Minnie’s, they are greeted not by the proprietor but by four unfamiliar faces. Bob (Bichir), who’s taking care of Minnie’s while she’s visiting her mother, is holed up with Oswaldo Mobray (Roth), the hangman of Red Rock, cow-puncher Joe Gage (Madsen), and Confederate General Sanford Smithers (Dern). As the storm overtakes the mountainside stopover, our eight travelers come to learn they may not make it to Red Rock after all…
