  • https://twitter.com/LEGO_Group/status/1765743034736558572 I want this. https://twitter.com/IGN/status/1765769653563924664 Zack Snyder is just as much to blame for the DCEU failing as much as the WB executives. He held back on a lot of t…

  • A dream team for me would be Anthony Horowitz, Christopher Nolan and Denis Villeneuve writing together. Someone else could direct, if none of them couldn't already do it. As I said, wishful thinking. It's always hard for me to put a cast and crew to…

  • I’m sorry to start another Purvis and Wade fight, but nothing in Bond needs to change for the future more than the writing. See my TWINE missed opportunities for my reasons. I know they don’t write alone, but something’s happen to much with them, th…

  • https://twitter.com/BondWriting/status/1764255521287147869 I told my dad that I enjoyed TWINE. His response was that it was one of his least favorites, and that there were better Bond movies. He was right, and it wasn’t a generation thing. I’m …
  • It is also nice to see so many Superman fans on here that care about the character and his universe. I feel that the Salkinds could have easily done with Superman what EON did for Bond. I get that movies are a business, but the Salkinds were WAY too…
  • Awesome @moneyofpropre2 quick question will there be a physical copy of the book eventually? Call me old-fashioned but I am building my Bond library that way!
  • Considering how many James Bond alumni Denis Villeneuve has cast in his movies over the years, it wouldn't surprise me. I still wouldn't mind him or Christopher Nolan, or whoever EON goes with. I trust EON, and a new director is just as exciting as …

  • Some of my thoughts on Superman: As @peter and I were discussing on the Batman thread with the Flash, I hope Zod is given a MAJOR rest for a LONG time. WB seems to have a hard-on for having Zod always be a villain, even in non-Superman movies! Fr…

  • Poor Things (2023). Unique to say the least. More from me later. Emma Stone is still one of the best actresses from my generation. Willem Dafoe should have been Oscar nominated. Mark Ruffalo is a hoot.

  • Sorry @Creasy47 I moved your story over here. https://deadline.com/2024/02/tom-cruise-alejandro-inarritu-next-legendary-1235833486/[/quote] I guess no Movie Critic with QT. Hopefully he can do both.

  • https://www.reddit.com/r/DCULeaks/comments/1axbepq/james_gunn_jamesgunn_on_threads_after_the_table/ I'm still hoping for a bigger villain like Brainiac, Parasite or even Toyman.
  • I find him a bit hypocritical if he wants to film 4 movies at once, yet didn’t want to film the John Logan 2 part Bond scripts for EON. As for the project itself, let’s see what happens. I hope it’s historically accurate.
