Release Date: January 16

Less than a year after 28 Years Later relaunched the 21st century’s definitive zombie franchise in fine fashion, a sequel is here. Written by Alex Garland, produced by Danny Boyle, and directed by Candyman’s Nia DaCosta, the film continues the story of Years’ survivors, including isolated Dr. Kelson (Ralph Fiennes), young Spike (Alfie Williams), and demented Jimmy (Jack O’Connell), the leader of the violent cult that was first introduced in the final moments of the previous movie. The Bone Temple will supposedly also reintroduce Cillian Murphy, the hero of the original 28 Days Later, setting up a third 28 Years Later that he would potentially headline.

Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy (2004)”,”photo-description”:”

It’s odd how rarely “best” means “funniest” when people create greatest film lists. From a pure laugh density perspective, there may not be a funnier 21st century movie than Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy, director Adam McKay and star Will Ferrell’s relentless lampoon of ’70s workplace misogyny. And the scene with Ron and his colleague Brian Fantana (Paul Rudd) and his cabinet of colognes may well be the funniest movie scene of my lifetime. Every line is funny. Every word is funny. There’s like two unfunny syllables. The rest? 24 karat comedy gold.
