"Ni No Kuni II:
Revenant Kingdom" is the sequel to PS3-exclusive "Ni No Kuni: Wrath of the White Witch" that was announced at the 2015 PSX and released in Japan in November 2011.
The
Revenant, bleak yet beautiful, is a cross between a western revenge thriller and a meditative epic.
The beauty and style of Lubezki's work, featuring long, unbroken takes in "Birdman" or the exclusive use of natural light in "
Revenant," has made him perhaps the first superstar cinematographer.

Following his Golden Globe win on Sunday, along with his Bafta nomination announced last week, for his role as frontiersman Hugh Glass in The
Revenant, perhaps 2016 could finally be his year.
The
Revenant also won best film and best director and deserves a repeat performance on Oscar night.
RE THE
REVENANT FILM @_MIG_MIGS: The
Revenant was beautifully shot and uncompromising in depicting a gritty tale of revenge rivaling classics such as The Outlaw Josey Wales @LETMECLARA_FY: I would pay to see The
Revenant about 2-3 more times @EAGLESKEV: The
Revenant.
THE
REVENANT (15) Starring: Leonardo DiCaprio, Tom Hardy, Domhnall Gleeson, Will Poulter, Forrest Goodluck Director: Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu Duration: 156 mins IF film awards were bestowed for dogged determination and perseverance in the face of seemingly insurmountable odds, The
Revenant would sweep next month's Oscars.
The 73rd annual Golden Globe Awards were announced at the Beverly Hilton in Los Angeles on January 10 with The
Revenant and The Martian winning Best Motion Picture, Drama and Best Motion Picture, Musical Or Comedy, respectively.
The film's bleak barbarism is off-set by the awesome backdrop of snow and, while indulgent at times, The
Revenant is a striking achievement.
Youssef posted a photo of "The
Revenant's" official poster, Leo's latest film, and wrote, "If DiCaprio doesn't win an Oscar this year or for all his years of acting, then I will quit what I claim to be good at: acting."
