Re: Naked Gun Trailer (OJ Joke)

Reviews are extremely strong, and I've missed this kind of "smart-dumb" comedy in theaters.

Cliff Booth Tarantino spinoff from David Fincher(!)

https://twitter.com/itshighart/status/1950082550719762939

I honestly thought this was an April Fool's prank when it was first announced, but this has to have the oddest pedigree I can think of. :? Fincher shooting a Tarantino screenplay spun off from his Once Upon A Time...In Hollywood with Pitt ...

Hooray, it's...resoundingly adequate! :| While it's easily the "best" FF movie to date, clearing the low bar of the Roger Corman cheapie, the pair of lame-assed 2000s Fox entries and Fan4stic is not ...

Re: James Bond 007 Reset Thread: Denis Villeneuve Signs On


Compare how 40-year-old Connery looks in DAF to 60 -year-old Tom Cruise in Top Gun: Maverick !


But Cruise did something REALLY f*cked-up to his face over the last few years.

Re: James Bond 007 Reset Thread: Denis Villeneuve Signs On

I remember back when OCTOPUSSY & NEVER SAY NEVER AGAIN came out that people were always stunned when it was revealed that Roger Moore was older than Sean Connery. Moore clearly kept himself in better shape, and it was really not until A VIEW TO A KILL that he looked "aged".

I'd say that Moore ...

Re: James Bond 007 Reset Thread: Denis Villeneuve Signs On

Re: Weekend Box-Office 7/13 - Up and Away for SUPERMAN
