  • Karen Allen sees it how I do. “I guess you could say [there are sinister undertones],” Allen said about the scene. “I think I say I was 16. I don’t know. That’s always what I imagined is she was 16, he was 26. And he was her father’s student. An…

  • I don’t think an appearance by either negates what was done in Logan . This is the Multiverse, and it’s filled with endless variations. What happened in Logan will always be the reality for that universe. There are many more from which to choose
  • For years I’ve thought that Daniel would be right for Houdini. https://screenrant.com/harry-houdini-movie-biopic-development-paramount-tansformers-producers/
  • It is enjoyable but convoluted; I’m happy that I’m not the only one who feels this way. I hope that this is addressed in future seasons.
  • Nothing in the film says that the relationship was sexual.

  • I would have to go back and look, but within the film itself, not earlier scripts or preproduction material, is it absolutely confirmed that they had sex? If not then I see it as a crush that Indy allowed to go to far. A romantic relationship doesn’…

  • I just can’t buy Elvis as a henchman; now I’m not saying that a hulking Arian would have been better, only some who projected more malevolence. I don’t know why, but I keep thinking twins , two identical assassins.
  • Better editing and stronger henchmen alone would have helped immensely.
  • I enjoy Quantum more every time that I watch it. Considering the impact of the writer’s strike I think it would have benefited had Campbell returned; his previous experience with Bond, particularly CR, would have made making adjustments during film…
  • Older actors often use beards to compensate for a softening jawline.
  • Ludovico wrote: » Why do so many actors today have to sport beards or stubbles to (I presume) look masculine? In part to compensate for their thin voices.

  • I just can’t get on board with Taylor-Johnson, he’s even more wooden than Cavill. Claflin Is definitely high on my list.
  • It's funny how the appearance of a well known actor in a cameo can be distracting. For me, when Ted Danson appeared in "Saving Private Ryan it pulled me right out of the film.
  • "Death on the Nile" (2022) This is a return to filmmaking of an earlier era. It’s about the story, not over the top action and set pieces. It’s a beautiful film that is well directed and acted. The score, including songs, is outstanding. Wit…

  • I'm one of the three people who actually likes AWTD. in no way is it a perfect song but I think it reflects where Bond is following the events of CR , particularly the death of Vesper. Musically I find it very Bondian in an unconventional way; lyric…
