Fellow ‘Easy Rider’ Remembers Dennis Hopper
Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Celeb News, Obituaries,
Following Dennis Hopper’s death, Easy Rider co-star Peter Fonda has come forward with a statement.
“Dennis [Hopper] introduced me to the world of Pop Art and ‘lost’ films. We rode the highways of America and changed the way movies were made in Hollywood. I was blessed by his passion and friendship,” Fonda said of his friend and co-star, who passed away on May 31 due to complications associated with prostate cancer.
Many credit Easy Rider as an historic film, which created a “new Hollywood” to help change filmmaking. Fonda produced the movie, with Hopper directing. The two, along with Terry Southern, were nominated for Best Screenplay in 1970.

Review: 3:10 to Yuma (2007)
Posted by Johnny Mercedes Categories: Lionsgate, Action, Adaptation, Adventure, Drama, Thrillers, New Releases, Upcoming Releases, Theatrical Reviews,
When struggling Arizona rancher Dan Evans (Christian Bale) sets out one morning to find his lost cattle, he happens upon a stagecoach robbery and a gang of thieves led by infamous outlaw Ben Wade (Russell Crowe). In need of money, Evans volunteers to help capture Wade in a nearby town, escort him to a railroad stop, and put him on the “3:10 to Yuma”, a train that takes prisoners to trial. There’s only one problem: Wade’s gang is looking for their boss, and they’ll kill anyone who gets in the way. 3:10 to Yuma is based on the classic 1957 western of the same name.
I had a chance to see the film a week early (thanks, Warren Report); here is an in-depth review of the action-packed western.
