The Hateful Eight     HD720p 44MB   HD1080p 86MB
First trailer for the latest movie written and directed by Quentin Tarantino (Kill Bill, Django Unchained, Inglourious Basterds). It is again a western, this time set after the end of the Civil War. A stagecoach hurtles through the wintry Wyoming landscape. Bounty hunter John Ruth (Kurt Russell) and his fugitive Daisy Domergue (Jennifer Jason Leigh) race towards the town of Red Rock, where Ruth will bring Domergue to justice. Along the road, they encounter Major Marquis Warren (Samuel L. Jackson), a former Union soldier turned infamous bounty hunter, and Chris Mannix (Walton Goggins), a renegade who claims to be the town's new Sheriff. Losing their lead on the blizzard they seek refuge at Minnie's Haberdashery, a stagecoach stopover. When they arrive, they are greeted by four unfamiliar faces: Bob (Demian Bichir), who takes care of Minnie's in the owner's absence; Oswaldo Mobray (Tim Roth), the hangman of Red Rock; cow-puncher Joe Gage (Michael Madsen); and Confederate General Sanford Smithers (Bruce Dern). As the storm overtakes the mountainside, our eight travelers come to learn they may not make it to Red Rock after all.
I wish he had changed the genre, but I'll take it.

Trumbo     HD720p 29MB
Biopic about the successful career of 1940s screenwriter Dalton Trumbo (Bryan Cranston) which comes to a crushing end when he and other Hollywood figures are blacklisted for their political beliefs. It tells the story of his fight against the U.S. government and studio bosses in a war over words and freedom, which entangled everyone in Hollywood from Hedda Hopper and John Wayne to Kirk Douglas and Otto Preminger. Also part of the cast are Helen Mirren, John Goodman, Elle Fanning, Diane Lane, Louis C.K., Alan Tudyk, Michael Stuhlbarg and Adewale Akinnuoye-Agbaje. Directed by Jay Roach (Austin Powers, Meet the Parents, The Campaign).
It's Hollywood related and it has a high-profile cast. I guess that means it will win the Oscar.

About Ray     HD720p 22MB
Multi-generational family drama with some lighter elements that follows Ray (Elle Fanning), a New York City teenager struggling with gender identity and Ray's harried single mother Maggie (Naomi Watts) as they track down Ray's biological father (Tate Donovan) to sign the paperwork approving Ray's transition. Meanwhile, Maggie's mother (Susan Sarandon), a quick witted music manager who shares her brownstone with her lesbian partner (Linda Emond), is having a hard time wrapping her head around Ray's life altering decision, and Maggie's inability to move out of the house in which she grew up. directed by Gaby Dellal (On a Clear Day).
Together with the upcoming The Danish Girl starring Eddie Redmayne, this may become the year of transgender movie characters in mainstream movies.

Dad's Army     HD720p 13MB
Teaser from the UK for this big screen version of the sitcom from the 1960s and 70s. It is 1944 and World War II is reaching its climax. The Allies are poised to invade France and finally defeat the German army. But in Walmington-on-Sea morale amongst the Home Guard (among them Bill Nighy, Toby Jones, Tom Courtenay, Michael Gambon, Daniel Mays) is low. Their new mission then – to patrol the Dover army base – is a great chance to revive spirits and reputation, that is until glamorous journalist Rose Winters (Catherine Zeta-Jones) arrives to write about their exploits, setting the pulses racing and putting the local women on red alert. MI5 then discover a radio signal sent direct to Berlin from Walmington-on-Sea. There's a spy on the loose! The outcome of the war is suddenly at stake, and it falls to our unlikely heroes to stand up and be counted. Directed by Oliver Parker (St. Trinian's, Dorian Gray, The Importance of Being Earnest).

Sleeping With Other People     HD720p 18MB
In case there were any doubts that this one will feature some dirty language, the redband trailer version for this romantic comedy that asks the question if two serial cheaters can get a second chance at love? After a one-night stand in college, New Yorkers Lainey (Alison Brie) and Jake (Jason Sudeikis) meet by chance twelve years later and discover they each have the same problem: because of their monogamy-challenged ways, neither can maintain a relationship. Determined to stay friends despite their mutual attraction, they make a pact to keep it platonic, a deal that proves easier said than done. Adam Scott, Jason Mantzoukas, Natasha Lyonne and Amanda Peet are also part of the cast. Written and directed by Leslye Headland (Bachelorette).
Festival reviews say that, unlike many other r-rated comedies, it actually also tells a story in an enjoyable way.
