Is it November already? Holy shit. The time went by fast. I actually started compiling the material for this update some time in October or even earlier. The idea was to do a quick rundown of links I found on the new that were worth mentioning, among all the stuff that you find in the universe dominated by a search engine that starts with a G. And don’t get me wrong, I don’t want …

Grindhouse (the theatrical experience of April 2007 with versions of Planet Terror and Death Proof previously unseen on home video, including fake trailers Machete, Don’t, Thanksgiving, Werewolf Women of the SS) is out on BluRay today! Fans have waited three years to see this happen. Despite some early rumors that this version might exclude the fake Machete trailer because Robert Rodriguez has finished an actual movie based on it, are false (here is a …

Yeah we know there are stories out there about how Quentin wants to make a RomCom, but there are always stories out there about what it is that Quentin wants to make (supposedly or not only Quentin knows). Here at the QTA, we let the facts speak, and so we’re not writing about any of it. And we all know he’ll not be in the Smurfs, that’s just BS. Same goes for that Lady …

If you hire Machete to kill the bad guy, make sure the bad guy isn’t you! Via our friends at Slashfilm and The Playlist, comes news that RobRod and his companero in the directing chair (Rodriguez will produce) will start production on the feature-length Machete in about 5 weeks. Turning the Grindhouse trailer into a full-fledged feature film has been in discussion for a long time now, and it’s great to see this …

So apparently Sin City, which already kicked loads of ass on the Unrated/Recut DVD edition, kicks even more ass in gorgeous BluRay high-definition. If you’re out looking for ways to feed your BluRay appetite, take a look at THIS review and tell me if that doesn’t sound great. Not only does it come with all the goodies you’ve seen on the DVD, it comes with a few additional extras and of course the movie …

Looks like he’s back with a vengeance. Danny Trejo as Machete, the title character of the opening faux trailer from Grindhouse, will return to the big screen (or the small one if it goes straight to DVD). Variety learned that Robert Rodriguez, who seems to be attached to a dozen projects right now, including his own project Nerverackers, a Predator remake, Sin City 2 (which seems to be without a studio backer right now) …

Hello I’m back, and via Cinema Blend comes some news related to a possible Grindhouse release in the US later this year. The movie as it was originally shown there in theaters has never seen the inside of a DVD player except in Japan, so fans are eagerly waiting for this (and *sigh* yes also for the Kill Bill Whole Bloody Affair). CinemaBlend writes that Robert Rodriguez, who had been interviewed at the SXSW …

It’s been a bit quiet around Robert Rodriguez lately, aside from the odd rumors about the numerous projects he might be heading, from Sin City 2 to a possible Machete movie. You better be on the safe side and get your daily fix of RR on home video. One of the greatest DVDs of his movies was of course the Unrated&Recut Box set of Sin City, which will now arrive on BluRay for those …

Empire Magazine‘s latest list termed “500 Greatest Movies of All Time” might be remotely democratic (it is based on a survey), yet it is utterly bizarre if you take the time and flick through the pages to see what movies ranked where. Here’s how Q’s movies did in this bizarrest of bizarre lists: The Bride’s revenge part two, Kill Bill: Volume 2 ranks 423rd; Oliver Stone‘s media satire based on Tarantino’s story, Natural Born …

Infected People don’t get much lovin’ from the German film ratings board these days. The BPJS, the Germany regulatory body where the buck stops in terms of film ratings has decided to classify Robert Rodriguez‘ splatter extravaganza Planet Terror as a hazard to adolescents and is including it it it’s “Index” on List part A, to be officially announced September 30th. The ban means that the movie will no longer be allowed to be …

Rumor has it, that Robert Rodriguez‘ ultra-violent and ubercool graphic novel adaptation Sin City will hit Blu Ray disc this winter, and what excites me personally, is that word around the campfire is that From Dusk Till Dawn is also up for some high definition pimping. I was long of the opinion that Dusk is way overdue for a proper re-release even on DVD, as the current one available for purchase is a non-anamorphic …
