AT&T CEO Ponders 20-Minute Game of Thrones Episodes
AT&T CEO Randall Stephenson, whose company is in the process of purchasing Time Warner, has suggested that it might make sense to cut down episodes of Game of Thrones to a shorter length to make them more palatable in a "mobile environment."
“I’ll cause
Plepler to panic,” Stephenson said at the J.P. Morgan’s Global Technology, Media and Telecom Conference according to Variety. "Think about things like Game of Thrones. In a mobile environment, a 60-minute episode might not be the best experience. Maybe you want a 20-minute episode.”
Dark Phoenix Producer: Nothing Is “Out of Bounds”
Producer Hutch Parker is feeling pretty good about things right now, riding high on the success of the final Hugh Jackman Wolverine movie, Logan. With the acclaimed film now hitting Blu-ray, Parker joined Jackman and director James Mangold for a special screening of the black and white version of the film -- dubbed Logan Noir -- at the Alamo Drafthouse in Brooklyn last week for something of a victory lap.
But he’s also looking forward to the X-Men’s future, including the next “core” film in the franchise, X-Men: Dark Phoenix, which will pick up where X-Men: Apocalypse left off and (obviously) take a new tact with the classic Phoenix storyline which was previously adapted in the third film. I recently chatted with Parker about the plan for Dark Phoenix, what it’s like making an X-Men movie without Wolverine in it, and more. Read on for part one of our chat…

Game of Thrones: Season 7’s Big Events Will Happen Faster
Game of Thrones: Season 7 will have a much faster pace than previous seasons and promises to be quite the intense ride.
Nikolaj Coster-Waldau (Jaime Lannister) revealed to Entertainment Weekly he was shocked when he read the scripts for the new season and felt like he was lulled into a completely different pace. “I’m like, ‘Already? Now?! What," Coster-Waldau said. “Everything happened quicker than I’m used to … a lot of things that normally take a season now take one episode.”
Kit Harington (Jon Snow) agreed, reiterating that Season 7 is "quite exciting" and will be "really different than any other season because it’s accelerating toward the end."

Uncharted: Every Director the Movie Has Lost and Why
Most fans of the Uncharted franchise are probably taking a "I'll believe it when I see it" approach to the long-gestating film adaptation. First announced way back in 2009, the Uncharted movie has been trapped in development hell ever since, frequently gaining and losing writers, directors and actors over the years.
The good news is that there's been some recent progress on the Uncharted front. Sony has even established a new in-house development studio called Playstation Productions, one tasked with turning various Playstation franchises into blockbuster films. The bad news is that Uncharted's revolving door of directors keeps spinning. Travis Knight is the latest director to drop out of this decade-old adaptation.
