I totally agree with @TheWizardOfIce on this one. I just don't see where SC would have made an improvement over GL in the role, especially the way the movie was made. How exactly would SC have been better than GL as Sir Hilary Bray or a more romanti…

I totally believe him when he says he wants to return to the stage and doesn't want to direct the next one. I wouldn't be at all surprised if he never directs another Bond movie ever again despite his enthusiasm at the press launch of Skyfall. Al…

Quentin Tarantino's latest film, the spaghetti western-inspired Django Unchained, looks set to be a critical hit after US reviewers at an early screening gave it the thumbs up on Twitter. Attendees at the screening focused on the film's mix of ex…

I'm looking forward to a few of the sci-fi movies coming up in 2013. Oblivion being one of them. Here's the new poster...

Also Christopher Walken had already won an Oscar for best supporting actor for his performance in The Deer Hunter before he made a Bond picture and had just come off the brilliant Dead Zone before AVTAK. Getting Walken for the Bond baddie was a huge…

Nah, I gave up after Wrong Turn 4 and I've read the 5th has no redeeming qualities at all. Creasy47 wrote: Samuel001 wrote: Wrong Turn 5?! Really? I didn't even realise there was a third one. Unfortunately, yes. As expected, they're ga…

Sounds promising. I just hope they keep the little stick man, the halo and the original music - otherwise it might not feel too much like The Saint... a bit like that one starring Simon Dutton in 1989. Fingers crossed this turns out well.

I like Roger Moore's first 3 Bond films but feel he stuck around way too long and tarnished his earlier good work for the sake of a huge salary. Dalton was the complete opposite and didn't make enough. As much as I think TSWLM is goofy and echoes YO…

And yet Batman 89 had co-creator Bob Kane as creative consultant!!

Some interesting musings from Total Film on the short trailer, such as: There are some fan theories floating around that Cumberbatch is playing Gary Mitchell, and there is actually a fair bit of evidence to back that up in this trailer. Alice Eve…

We are probably covering a lot of the same ground that has been covered elsewhere on the Dalton subject so I won't trouble you too much with my take on the matter other than to say I liked Dalton very much when he took over from Moore - but do I thi…

I see Guillermo del Toro's next feature-length project is a haunted house movie called Crimson Peak, which del Toro will helm once he wraps post-production on Pacific Rim and shoots the pilot for FX’s The Strain (based on his own novel). “[It's] …

Very good thesis, @Dalton12. You might enjoy this if you haven't seen it...

I think it depends on where David Goyer draws his inspiration from and whether he goes back even further than the comics and explores the 2 books that influenced Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster when they first created Superman. If so then there could b…

Recently Nolan was asked if Man of Steel fits into the superhero universe that he crafted with his Dark Knight Trilogy, to which he responded: “Well, somewhat. But I wouldn’t want people to think we’re doing for Superman what we did for Batman.” …

It's shame so many of the greats are now dead or retired, but my short list would have to include: John Williams James Horner James Newton Howard Alan Silvestri (Good call @Dalton12)

Agreed. I'd much rather the new Trek delve a little deeper into their treasure trove and try an alternative adversary such as Gary Mitchell or Harry Mudd.
