@LucknFate you nailed it. Just the cost of our man Bond, the actors they may be interested in, SFX, musical talent, talent behind the camera…. It’s only getting more and more expensive to put these films up on the big screen. Gunn’s new SM film i…

Chris Pine is not often an actor I think about until I'm actually watching him. And whether he plays a hero (StartTrek), or an anti hero (Hell or High Water), I always marvel at his value. He is one helluva solid and consistent performer. I fo…

@Creasy47 ...did you see DUNE 2 yesterday?

Knowing the stakes are higher with a new actor stepping into the role, if I was one of the producers I’d work with the writers I’m most comfortable working with to develop outlines and then a few drafts. Then I’d concern myself with hiring doctor…

@Univex It’s Rendezvous with Rama , and Arthur C Clarke sci-fi novel that Villeneuve is attached to. Edit: @Kojak007 , don’t fret yet. No one knows if this is the case. Villeneuve is the big director who I know is one that, not only do EoN…

I know a little about women, Thunderball (please and thank you!)

Those comments were made in December, I believe, so I think he already would have been circling this “secret project” back then. Whatever it is, it’s clear that he is trying to clean up his slate, having dropped out of a long-gestating TV series …

He has stated publicly that before tackling the third Dune film, he wants to get a separate project in: According to Variety, Villeneuve gave an update on Dune: Messiah, which is expected to conclude his Dune trilogy, during a South Korean press …

Very nicely said and you’ve summed up my feelings as well, @DarthDimi … This is also a hugely collaborative effort to put films like these on the big screen (as @moneyofpropre2 has shown in his 1300 plus pages of research ). There will be producers …

If one watched Revolutionary Road or American Beauty, would one have seen a future Bond director? If one watched Monster's Ball or The Kite Runner, would anyone imagine the same director would have delivered QoS? If one watched cheesy flicks l…

I’m almost thirty pages in, @moneyofpropre2 … This is quite the Bible!! How long did it take you to research, write and then edit this down the very full 1300 plus pages?? What a remarkable achievement, my friend! I’m in awe.

@Denbigh has that great little optimism that’s always nice to read around these corners!
