  • It does say something about a film if upon its release people are as busy thinking about the next installment as they are thinking about the actual film.

  • The next Bond 25 Movie? I wonder what kind of experience the last Bond 25 Movie was for him.

  • He says "it seems" and doesn´t mention any type of source whatsoever. Waste of time.
  • Haha, then try Cherry 2000 next!

  • I´m probably going to see this, because I enjoyed BvS seemingly a lot more than most here, but that Batman with his sunglasses looks as if he´s going for a day on the beach :-)).

  • To me, Arnold is a bit of a miracle, in that he basically is a hack, but nevertheless is a lot of fun to listen to. Technically, his music has no resemblance to the music of Barry or Williams or the like. He emulates certain exclamations, but he has…
  • I wouldn´t insist on Arnold. Unfortunately the current fashion seems to be to have nondescript scores that if at all underline the action. I personally prefer the fashion that was mostly represented by composers like John Barry, John Williams, or Je…

  • antovolk wrote: » There's a Nolan interview in the latest Playboy where he talks about talking to BB/MGW and he said he'd love to do it but "you'd need to be needed....it has to need reinvention, it has to need you." Delusions of grandeur.
  • It´s a symbol of time ticking away.

  • Cruise is most of the time very much on the verge of greatness, even though his best roles were in films where he himself had no major say, like Lions and Lambs, or Magnolia, or Tropic Thunder. Neeson has that FBI film coming out soon, doesn´t he…
  • Anyway, the whole relevance schtick including an aged Bond was ripped off McClory´s NSNA, together with the laser watch. So one could say that Eon live the idea of the traitor from within, making its numerous appearances in the films seem to be b…

  • They should have made the film that fits to that song.
