Posted on by skulkaew

Congratulations to our friends at Warner Bros. Pictures, along with the cast and crew of Argo for their three wins last night in the categories for best adapted screenplay (Chris Terrio), achievement in film editing (William Goldenberg) and the evening’s top honors for best picture (Grant Heslov, Ben Affleck and George Clooney) at the 85th Annual Academy Awards.

Over the course of the last several years, Bravo Design, Inc. has had the opportunity to collaborate with the marketing and creative services departments at WB on advertising for three best pictures winners: Million Dollar Baby (2004),  The Departed (2006) and Argo (2012). We’re absolutely thrilled to have had the opportunity to be a part of something loved by so many.

Once more, congratulations. We hope this is the third of many.

A Good Day to Die Hard

Posted on by skulkaew

John McClane (Bruce Willis) is back in the latest installment of the Die Hard franchise, A Good Day to Die Hard, where he travels to Russia to help his seemingly wayward son, Jack (Jai Courtnery), who unbeknownst to him is an undercover CIA operative working to arrange the defection of a well-connected whistleblower and political prisoner, Yuri Komarov (Sebastian Koch). Komarov claims to have a file with incriminating details on high-ranking government officials but is, inconveniently, being jailed on trumped-up charges, so it’s up to the two McClanes to team up, protect Komarov from being and recover the file.

Peter Debruge of Variety writes, “A surly papa bear determined to protect his endangered cub, this expendable, action-packed sequel works like gangbusters, giving the new Dolby Atmos super-surround system (debuted on Brave) a real workout. Things go bang, the McClanes get their share of battle scars and the trauma of it all proves the perfect bonding experience to heal old wounds.” HSX predicts that the newest Die Hard film will rake in somewhere between $38M-$43M in its 3,500 theater wide opening.

Bullet to the Head

Posted on by skulkaew

In Bullet to the Head, Sylvester Stallone plays Jimmy Bobo, tattoo-enthusiast and hitman for hire. When his partner, Louis (Jon Seda), is murdered by former mercenary, Keegan (Jason Momoa), Bobo will stop at nothing to exact vengeance. In what would seem like an unlikely duo, he teams up with D.C. Detective Taylor Kwon (Sung Kang) who, not so coincidentally, has been dispatched to investigate the death of his own partner. Brought together by two savage murders, Bobo and Det. Kwon prepare to take on anyone and everyone who stands in their way, putting everything on the line to exact revenge.

Jordan Mintzer of The Hollywood Reporter writes, “Like the amped up comeback tour of two rockers who had their heyday sometime in the mid-’80s, Sylvester Stallone and director Walter Hill (48 Hrs., The Warriors) join forces delivering tons of kinetic wham-bam fight sequences and LOL one-liners and dishes out 90 minutes of old-school mayhem.”
