In chatting recently with MTV, director Quentin Tarantino discussed the third 'Kill Bill' movie, which the director confirmed will see the return of Uma Thurman and which will take place ten years after the second installment.
Given that Bill actually gets killed at the end of 'Volume 2' and actor David Carradine has since died, the title doesn't really work anymore. "It wouldn't be 'Kill Bill,'" Tarantino said. "It would be Volume 3 of the story of the Bride."
"There's no script; there are just ideas and notes" he added. "I won't do that next, but it could very well be the thing I do after next."
It's hard to know where it will all settle, or when...but if Tarantino chooses to follow up in real time, we might get a new installment in 2014, ten years after the last 'Kill Bill' film. Meanwhile, expect »

Director Quentin Tarantino talked about the third Kill Bill film, which will once again star Uma Thurman. The next Kill Bill will take place ten years after the second installment.
“It wouldn’t be Kill Bill,” Tarantino said discussing the title to his new endeavor. “It would be Volume 3 of the story of the Bride.”
“There’s no script; there are just ideas and notes. I won’t do that next, but it could very well be the thing I do after next,” said the 46-year-old auteur.
Uma Thurman revealed in October than she had been in discussions with Tarantino over the project. “Yeah, I think it’d be fun,” the hot 39-year-old said.
“[Quentin and I] did chat, we did chat. He has not yet finished the script. I don’t even really know if he’s really started it, although I got a taste of some of his ideas and they are really good. »

If (or more likely, when) Quentin Tarantino returns to the Bride wars, it won't be called Kill Bill Vol. 3. There's simple logic involved: Bill's done been killed. Oops...forgot the spoiler alert. Qt told MTV recently he's already come to terms with that, and he'd have to give it a new name.
"It wouldn't be Kill Bill, " Tarantino stated. "It would be Volume 3 of the story of the Bride." But that's about as far as he's taken it, apparently. "There's no script; there are just ideas and notes," Tarantino said. "I won't do that next, but it could very well be the thing I do after next."
We'd heard that last bit before, marking one of the few times Tarantino has stayed consistent with his plans. Among the possibilities several months ago were a western and a classic gangster movie, and each of those genres has clearly fed the filmmaker Qt has become. »

How long is a piece of string? Exactly. And when it comes to waiting for Quentin Tarantino to make a film, you can ask the same question…kind of. First Showing recently caught up with the American maestro and asked him for an update on all things Bride related, and he announced: “There’s no script, there are just ideas and notes…we’re getting there, we’re about one movie away.”
Tarantino resurrected his career after the ill-received Grindhouse with the mighty Inglourious Basterds. It is perhaps his most thoroughly enjoyable film since Pulp Fiction. It’s his biggest box office strike, too.
Kill Bill was his love letter to all things kung fu-related. If the first part was a lean, mean fighting machine, the second part was a rather bloated affair with a dull climax. Does the world need to hear from The Bride again after she settled her score? »

When writer/director, Quentin Tarantino, announced his plans to make Kill Bill 3 a couple of months ago, one of the many speculative questions on fans’ lips was how can they make a Kill Bill 3 if the titular Bill [spoiler alert!] was killed at the end of Vol. 2? [end spoiler]. The saga of Uma Thurman’s yellow-haired, sword-wielding Bride was tied up perfectly at the end of the second film, and it’s just not possible to carry on the story of her and Bill (because there is no story to continue!).
It goes without saying that it’s an issue Mr. Tarantino would have to address when writing Kill Bill 3. But what does the man himself have to say about it? Well, MTV recently got a chance to ask Qt about the title in an interview in which he said the following – “It wouldn’t be ‘Kill Bill,’… It would be Volume 3 of the story of the Bride. »

Tarantino has spoken out on his upcoming directorial slate, and it turns out that the further adventures of the Bride (Aka Beatrix Kiddo) will not be arriving as soon as some anticipated. In fact, don't rule out an Inglourious Basterds-length wait. Tarantino says of the project: "Well, it wouldn't be Kill Bill obviously, It would be Volume 3 of the story of the Bride". "There's no script, there are just ideas and notes" he adds. On the project's status, Qt says: "There's no script, there are just ideas...

Here we have a short tidbit from MTV as they spoke with Quentin Tarantino about a third film in the Kill Bill franchise and his confidence is always encouraging, but his delivery is rarely reliable as reporting on Tarantino projects has taught me a lot over the past six years.
So, when he says, "There's no script; there are just ideas and notes," I believe him and I think most everyone else does as well. However, I would be willing to bet hard cash Tarantino has ideas and notes on hundreds of films, so to say that about another Kill Bill is like saying the sky is blue. But, when he adds, "I won't do that next, but it could very well be the thing I do after next," I get a bit more of a feeling we are on to something as this is Tarantino backing away from saying »

Few months ago, Quentin Tarantino has shared his plan to make "Kill Bill 3". As the villain, Bill, was dead at the end of Volume 2, the director has decided to change the title of the upcoming movie. "It wouldn't be 'Kill Bill'," he told MTV. "It would be Volume 3 of the story of the Bride."
Though so, the third "Kill Bill" film will not be happening soon as Tarantino still has another upcoming movie project. "There's no script, there are just ideas and notes. I won't do that next, but it could very well be the thing I do after next," he stated. Assuring that the movie will definitely happen, he added, "We're getting there. We're about one movie away."
Previously, Uma Thurman has said that she is ready to reprise her role as The Bride. However, Tarantino believed he should give her ten years off before she is back in the action film. »

Speaking with MTV, Quentin Tarantino says that his next project isn’t Kill Bill Vol. 3 and that “Kill Bill Vol. 3″ wouldn’t even be the title. This makes a lot of sense if you know how volume two ends (spoiler alert: Bill gets killed). Tarantino says that another film in the franchise would be “Volume 3 of the story of the Bride” and since that isn’t very catchy, don’t expect that to be the title either.
Whatever the title may be, don’t expect to be seeing it on a marquee anytime soon. Says Tarantino, “There’s no script; there are just ideas and notes. I won’t do that next, but it could very well be the thing I do after next.” While I sure do love speculating about a film that still doesn’t have a title or a script but brings back a popular character, at »

This may ruin the films for some of you, but Uma Thurman’s aim in Kill Bill 1 and 2 was…to kill Bill. And she did in the end. So where does Quentin Tarantino go with Kill Bill 3 if Bill is already dead? Kill Zombie Bill? From MTV: “It wouldn’t be ‘Kill Bill,’ ” Tarantino confirmed to [...] »

We all saw this coming. Even though it was widely reported in early October that Quentin Tarantino had made a promise on an Italian talk show that "the Bride [would] fight again," it's not exactly going to be his next project. We can't forget that this is Tarantino, and he says these kind of things all the time and hypes up projects for years and years (just look how long it took Inglourious Basterds to get made). MTV talked with Tarantino recently and got him to clarify the situation regarding Kill Bill Vol. 3. "I won't do that next, but it could very well be the thing I do after next," Tarantino explained. So don't start getting excited yet. Additionally, since the "Bill" that Beatrix Kiddo is after in Kill Bill gets what's coming to him in the end, it won't be titled Kill Bill Vol. 3 anyway. "Well, it wouldn't ... »

Quentin Tarantino has been talking up Kill Bill Volume 3 since the day Kill Bill Volume 2 was released. It makes sense. The series lends itself to the occasional update style of storytelling that Richard Linklater used with Before Sunset and Before Sunrise, except with a lot more blood. We want to see where The Bride has gone, if the daughters of her victims are seeking revenge, and what has happened with The Bride.s daughter. But there.s one tiny problem with continuing the series. How can The Bride kill Bill again, unless Tarantino is planning a zombie flick? It turns out she won.t be, and thus, the film will take on a different title. Talking to MTV, Quentin stated that, .It wouldn't be Kill Bill. It would be Volume 3 of the story of the Bride." While this isn.t big news, it does mean that the story is still »

Even though the clip for "Video Phone (Extended Remix)" features two of the most recognizable women in pop music in Beyoncé and Lady Gaga, perhaps the most notable and striking image in the video has little to do with either of those stars. The opening scene of the clip perfectly apes the credit sequence of Quentin Tarantino's "Reservoir Dogs," which, like "Video Phone," features a line of people in black suits walking in slow motion.
Tarantino is a popular character in the hip-hop world (he has most notably worked with Wu-Tang Clan mastermind the RZA) and has been given nods in music videos since he first became a major player in the film world in the early '90s. Though he was not aware of the latest homage when MTV News' Eric Ditzian caught up with him last week, he was still flattered. "There's been a lot of videos »

From MTV.Com: In all the talk about a third installment of Quentin Tarantino's martial-arts opus "Kill Bill," little attention has been paid — um, almost 6-year-old spoiler alert? — to one tiny fact: Bill does in fact get killed at the end of Volume 2. One would assume it'd be difficult, or at least require some nifty storytelling trickery, to title a film after a character that already has already been axed.
We posed just this question to Quentin Tarantino in a recent interview, because as far as we can tell, the writer/director has not addressed the title issue.

The Satellites (formerly Golden) have announced their 2009 nominations for what it's worth. And you might be screaming "not very much".
It's hard to know what to make of this Golden Globe splinter group. There is never much of a narrative thread in their nominations. You can't sense from year to year a type of film they like or whatnot. Which makes them feel a bit suspect. They also do very strange things which you're about to see if you read their nominations. They never get much attention and yet they keep plugging away. This year they were especially kind to 2012 (who knew?), Nine and The Stoning of Soraya M. But they were downright rude to the sci-fi drama Moon which received zero nominations despite their lack of aversion to sci-fi films. I mention this because the moon is a natural satellite and the Satellites are artificial. Maybe they're jealous. What they're orbiting we know not. »

We sat down recently with director James McTeigue to talk about his new film, “Ninja Assassin,” based on a screenplay by Matthew Sand and J. Michael Straczynski, and starring Korean pop star Rain, Naomie Harris, Ben Miles, Rick Yune and legendary martial arts performer Sho Kosugi.
As a boy in Sydney, McTeigue was exposed to a variety of world cinema and television and was heavily influenced by ninja television shows like "Shintaro" and "Phantom Agents," and by films such as "Shinobi No Mono." He graduated from Sydney University, where he studied art and film.
McTeigue made his directorial debut helming the iconoclastic screen adaptation of the graphic novel "V for Vendetta." He came to the project through his relationship with the Wachowski brothers, for whom he served as the assistant director on all three "Matrix" films. His other previous film credits as an assistant director include "Speed Racer" and "Dark City. »

Walking into a movie titled Ninja Assassin, you should already expect a decent number of ninja assassinations and a fair amount of carnage. Martials arts movies have never skimped on the body count and why should this be any different?
What you might not be expecting is the blood-drenched massacre that is this entire movie. Director James McTeigue and the producing Wachowski brothers heap comical amounts of splatter onto the screen, racking up a higher body count and more buckets of blood than any torture porn horror flick or recent Rambo mission.
Each slice slashes an artery — precision only a ninja can master — out of which spurts a fountain of crimson with every whistling blade. Razor-sharp katanas and throwing stars whiz through the air, severing limbs and heads as if they’re made of cherry-flavored Jell-o. Now if only the audience could see any of it…
McTeigue must light his »

Though films with substance can be the most memorable, now and then a decent movie that invites you to check your brain at the door can be rewarding. The problem is those types of films have to be somewhat decent and they are getting pretty rare nowadays. The last action film I saw that asked me to throw logic out the window and was still entertaining was Timur Bekmambetov's “Wanted' and since then hyper-kinetic films of the genre have got dumber and dumber. 'Ninja Assassin' is no exception. It's actually one of those movies you want to succeed, because its tough to remember when was the last time we got a decent ninja flick which is a poorly developed genre. I never though I'd write this, but 'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles' comes to mind and I'm talking the recent CGI version, not men in ridiculous Muppet suits. »
