  • Gavin was such a putrid actor, stagey as stagey could ever be; at least Brolin has a gruff and masculine presence. I’ll go Brolin
  • 007HallY wrote: » If there's one thing Nolan needs in some of his films, it's a good Second Unit team. The direction of the truck chase in TDK really is all over the place. You’re so right @007HallY … shooting action is a skill unto itself …
  • The most important thing is the script @talos7 … and I’m sure they’ve got a wish list together of directors, but until there’s something concrete to talk about story wise (and quickly following, cast ideas (they have to likely recast all the major r…
  • @Colonel_Venus , I don't think Nolan, or anyone, is in talks at the moment.

  • Daniel Craig’s eldest daughter was there this past summer with a group of friends. Is she going to be in the next Bond film too, 😂?? Goldeneye is an exclusive resort where the rich and famous hang out regularly. It’s where a lot of artists (wr…

  • 😳 I didn't know of this artist, @mtm .... but wow... Am I imagining an Amy Winehouse vibe in the top video (mixed with enough of her own style)? She also has a classic-swing-jazz sound that I really dig!! I have no idea about her popularity, but …

  • Oh boy… so according to you OTT stunts make a film less grounded (or less exciting)? And what stunts in OP are deemed too over the top, @DEKE_RIVERS ?
