Star Wars , Bond, Moby Dick and other holiday Blockbusters

Bond fan here too, I wish Craig would do a couple more, I've been so upset with the franchise and/or actors for not working something out to get more longevity. I'm part of the small (very small i suppose) camp that wanted Dalton to do 4 or 5 movies.....5 should be the standard for an actor, of course growing up watching Connery and Moore maybe i'm spoiled.

Big Dalton fan here , especially Licence to Kill that has a young Bencio Delo Toro as a bad guy . I'm all for Craig doing more and I know Spectre will be good , I just hate the ways he is handling interviews- makes it sound like he hates bond which is upsetting. Anyways I'll still see it. Anyone know when Star Wars goes on sale. Will try and see Crimson Peak , Goosebumbs, an Steve Jobs sometime next week . I try and see everything. I do want to see the final Paranormal Activity.
Yeah Dalton imo was the first of the Bond actors to play the role seriously...more in-line with Ian Flemming's creation. License to kill is one of my all time favorites......it has the best demise of any Bond villain when Bond shows Robert Davi's character the lighter that Felix gave him and then proceeds to light him on fire.

Isn't Star Wars coming out in December?

"The Martian" was out of this world, heh. Great movie for sci fi and science geeks like me. Definitely a blockbuster in ticket sales. A lot of "smaller" movies coming out will get my movie moolah, however.

"Crimson Peak," at theaters today, looks like an appropriately Gothic spookathon for Halloween viewing. Hoping Vin Diesel will entertainingly kick demonic butt in "The Last Witch Hunter," opening on the 23rd, and that the "Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse" on the 30th will be educational and enjoyable eradication of The Living Dead.

"Rock the Kasbah," the second pairing of Bill Murray and Bruce Willis (Oct. 23), should be fun.

Being a dog lover, a fan of underdogs, and ascribing to the Peter Pan principal (never grow up), I'm looking forward to "The Peanuts Movie," premiering on November 6th. Get the Red Baron, Snoopy! Charlie Brown can have this not-so-little redheaded girl anytime.

Chick & a Flick, anyone?

Great stuff still to hit the screens this year. Movie release dates: http://www.movieinsider.com/movies/-/2015

Crimson Peak is a big let down. Beautifully shot and technically sound. It's just not that scary and slightly predictable. Goosebumps was enjoyable. I do want to see Peanuts as i loved the specials and films when i was younger. the martian was excellent and one of the better movies this year.

the final Installment of Paranormal Activity opens up next weekend.

So far this holiday season doesntt seem that spectacular.

I will see the Point Break Remake - even though they had the perfect ingredients.

Concussion with will Smith - about the Doctor who discovered the serious Head trauma that NFL players experience and the NFL's attempts to hide it looks promising. Even though they made some cuts at the leagues demands.

I'm telling you this one is going to be fighting TPM as to which one is worse.

Well, I've enjoyed JJ Abrams for the most part and I liked what he did with Star Trek, so i have hopes.

Yeah Phantom Menace is pretty bad. I used to love it , but now it's so cringe worthy.

A kid built a droid and the SW equivalent of a stock car???


"I have a name and it's anakin!!!"

Darth Maul was an underused villain and the lightsaber fight is the shit.

I only knock Abrams because of his track record. I still remember watching TPM opening day and walking out there mad. Everyone told me I was just hating for no reason but once the excitement of a new movie settled in, people started to see it for what it was.

People complained so much about Darth Maul that they had bring him back in the animated Clone Wars universe. That was one of my main gripes. They promoted the hell out of that guy only to have like 30 seconds of screen time and get cut in half.


Speaking of track records, Eli Roth is still trash. After watching Knock Knock, I only have one question and one comment;
1. Why did Keanu do this movie? He didn't need the money and it's by far one of his worst acting roles.
2. I think this movie was only made for Eli Roth's new wife to have a starring role.

that's what a lot of us are when we strike out here.

Dec 18 will be here soon enough. Spileberg says he wants to do one more indiana jones. Ford maybe trying to cash in on the glory roles.
I just finished JEDI last week - so i am all caught up.

I just saw knock knock as well. I thought it was alright. Keanu's acting was a bit off and he is a true Judo practitioner and considering his filmography, it's hard to see him get overpowered by a couple of spinners.

Speaking of which both girls were gorgeous!!! Especially Ana de Armas.

His Free Pizza rant was epic

"YOU STARTED SUCKING MY COCK!!! WHAT WAS I SUPPOSED TO DO??!!!! IT WAS FREE PIZZA ON MY DOOR STEP!!!!"

I don't look like Keanu but i would have questioned the girls. Doesn't mean i wouldn't have fallen in to the trap, but come on. Random Horny Girls just don't show up on your door step, i don;t care how rich or good looking you are. If they do, there is a def a reason behind it and it's probably more likely in the red in the green.



Yeah i'd be a dead man.
good catch cr76, perks of being a MOD I get to fix my mistakes . Any ideas on when the storyline is suppose to take place?
Bond for sure. Just saw a trailer. Christoph Woltz is the bad guy. May be better than Xavier Bardin (Sp?). Originally Posted by Oralist

He may get his wish, but I wish he would be handle himself a bit better in interviews. " I rather slit my wrist then play bond again." Come on - a bit more class Originally Posted by cr76
