🗣 “He auditioned for a very long time” 🎬

Actors and filmmakers pass like ships in the night all the time, leaving Jim Carrey and Steven Spielberg as two massive names in the industry who could have collaborated at least twice but have remained outside of each other’s orbit throughout their respective careers.

🗣 “I love it more than he does” 🙌🎥

With someone as important to the cinematic ecosystem as Sir Chris, people like to speculate about which directors have influenced him. From viewing his body of work, it’s clear that the great David Fincher has had a huge impact on Nolan, and he has confirmed as much in interviews.

🗣 “The most elegant expression of the master’s style” 🙌🎥

Roger Ebert didn’t start writing reviews professionally until the late 1960s, long after Alfred Hitchcock reached the peak of his career, but the famed film critic returned to the director’s work on multiple occasions to highlight some of his most notable contributions to cinema.

They say that good things come in threes, and when it comes to cinema, several brilliant movie trilogies have arrived on screen to entertain us for a handful of hours. Indeed, a trilogy is a marvellous thing when done right, as it allows us to invest ourselves in a fictional world for longer than just a single fictional entry.

We’ve compiled a list of the greatest movie trilogies to watch in a single viewing. From journeys of childhood to adulthood to iconic fantasy adventures via tales from the dusty prairies of the Old West, it’s time to hunker down for the night and settle in for a lengthy cinematic viewing experience. 🍿🎥

🗣 “I said I wouldn’t do it” ❌🎥

Some actors are so protective of their personas that they try to die onscreen as little as possible, which is admittedly restricted more to those who prefer the action-orientated space. Then again, Denzel Washington is one of Hollywood’s marquee action stars, and he’s got no issues getting bumped off.

🗣 “It was a nightmare” 😬🎥

Martin Scorsese hasn’t gotten to where he is today by making things easy for himself. The legendary filmmaker has tackled some of the biggest subjects, broken the biggest taboos, and challenged all sorts of cinematic norms on his way to becoming a legend within his own lifetime. His refusal to conform is one of the many reasons why he is worshipped by cinephiles and why his body of work stands as one of the most impressive in film history.

Sometimes, you watch a film so spectacular that you immediately check who it was directed by, only to be disappointed when you discover that they either didn’t make anything else or that this one film was a positive blip in a sea of mediocrity. You feel an inward thudding sensation as it dawns on you that you won’t see another masterpiece like it, and its existence is an anomaly both in the careers of the director and your life. 🎥✨

When producing movies as sublime as the five mentioned below, it should be a legal requirement to follow up such efforts with at least one more attempt at matching that first crystalline piece of creativity. As it is, these five pictures remain the only releases of note from their fabled directors.

🗣 “An awesome movie” 🎥🔥

Samuel L Jackson is no stranger to reprising his most beloved roles in sequels. After all, this man will have played Nick Fury in approximately 642 Marvel movies by the time it’s all said and done. There is one part that Jackson has always wanted to return to, though, and it’s never come to pass despite the star pushing for it over the years.

🗣 “I don’t know what went wrong” 🤷‍♂️🎬

Auditions are by far and away one of the worst parts of being an actor. You have to queue up all day to perform lines from a script that you’ve had no time to prepare for in front of a panel of stern-faced, unflinching people who couldn’t give a damn about you. The process is entirely unnatural and how anyone gets through it is a complete mystery. Even the greats fall foul of this demonic exercise. Just ask Russell Crowe.

Not many people could play Dracula and then win an Academy Award for embodying Winston Churchill, but that’s the chameleonic career of Gary Oldman in microcosm.

He can do anything he sets his mind to, which has been reflected in a diverse filmography that’s been producing greatness for over 40 years. However, it has to be said that he’s at his best when he’s at his most volatile and going for broke as a bad guy. 🎥🔥

The Oscar-winning icon has played more than his fair share of baddies, but the following five provide more than enough proof to reiterate his credentials as one of cinema’s greatest-ever villains.

🗣 “There’s a lot of guys you can say” 🙌🎥

Whether it’s Samuel L Jackson, Brad Pitt, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kurt Russell, Bruce Willis, Uma Thurman, Pam Grier, Jamie Foxx, or any of the other cool customers to have played a major role in one of his features, Tarantino recognises a movie star when he sees one and has a tendency to use them at their best.
