'I am fascinated by Titanic. I will make a movie about it that will be the biggest film of all time and give me the money I need to become the world's greatest deep sea expert. When the money runs out I will just make the biggest film of all time again. Repeat for next 20 years'
@LaurenBaratzL
Why would anybody be upset that Kyle Rittenhouse shot (in self defence) a violent child rapist? Unless, of course, they felt some empathy with violent child rapists. Is that it Lauren? Are child rapists your kind of person? Is that the scene you 'dig'?
@CinemaTweets1
I'll always admire Brody for using his Oscar winning clout, not to get some tedious, worthy art house project off the ground, but to star in a King Kong remake, a
Dario Argento slasher and a Predator movie.
Nice one!
@grahamkw
Given their careers, you could forgive McCallum and Lumley for being dismissive - or at least indifferent - to a low budget show they made decades ago, so it's always nice to hear them talk about it with such affection. Strange to think that 'normal' TV was once so smart & scary.
@movieboy69
Really don't get the hate for Leto: Fight Club, Requiem for a Dream, Blade Runner, House of Gucci, Justice League...all great pics, and he's been good in all of them.
@theoceanblooms
He's not terrible but he has no range whatsoever. He's the same in everything and I never feel like I'm watching a character, just Tom Cruise trying his best.
@Joe_Brennan_
I don't go and watch a murder mystery to see a 'kind heart triumphing' - I want a fun story, some neat twists and a surprising reveal. If the film doesn't deliver on those fronts then it has, at least in part, failed.
@hxll_mxtt
Crazy idea: if you have neither the rights to play any Beatles songs nor the ability to cast actors who look even remotely like The Beatles...maybe not do an episode that involves The Beatles.
@jayrotoole
I think that should read: 'General audience when they see the programme has doubled down on the alienating woke nonsense that saw them desert the show in their droves over the last few years’.
@menonfilmpod
They had a Landis scripted/directed sequel - with all the original cast returning - ready to shoot. They canned it at the last minute for being 'too weird' and made this instead.
@ScottMendelson
The best thing about those films churned out in the Sword & Sorcery boom of the early 80's is all the beautiful natural scenery on display. You'd instantly lose all of that in a remake to a mass of green screens and brown CG sludge.

"JK Rowling's horrific behaviour towards trans people"
Give an example of this 'horrific' behaviour. Just one. (mild, light-hearted comments don't count I'm afraid)
Is it as bad as the death/rape threats & 'putrid c***' insults she receives from this poor, hounded community?
@bornposting
The Bond films aren't - or at least weren't - director's films, they're producer's movies. Why spend money and risk your autonomy by hiring a big name with a unique style when you can get a reliable journeyman to do what you tell him and have a big hit regardless?

Floyd was telling the police he couldn't breath while he was still sitting, untouched in the car. Chauvin had his knee on his shoulder blade not his neck, Floyd had a lethal dose of fentanyl in his system.
He died of a drug overdose. If he'd been white, no one would have cared.

The studios only keep a fraction of the Box Office take. The producers themselves said the film needed to make about $400 million to turn a profit.

Successful woman uses her money and influence to protect vulnerable women from men who want to intrude – probably with their dicks out - into female only spaces.

Do you know what kick-started the chain of events? Rittenhouse put out a burning dumpster that the 'protesters' were trying to push into a gas station. Cue an angry sex offender chasing after KR, threatening to kill him and making a grab for his rifle.
@JeremyMonjo
I really liked Renner in the MI pics. After hearing he was being set up as the new star, I was expecting a bland action hero, but the character was quite likeable and funny. His scenes with Ving in MI5 are far more entertaining than Cruise & Pegg's double act in the same film.

You have to almost admire the fact that someone watched the tumbling ratings for 'Gay female Dr Who & her ethnically diverse friends preach about climate change, racism & the evil of the white man' & thought the solution was to go even *more* woke.
Good luck with that BBC!

Perhaps the 'dire state of the NHS' is directly linked to the number of people who want to use it? Some of whom will have arrived here on 'small boats'?

Funny how Dr Who's tended to be rather disparaging of their previous selves until that previous self was a woman and then she was 'really brilliant'
@BDSixsmith
Asking the seething anti-JKR brigade for any actual evidence of her evil has become one of Twitter's great amusements. Just had two classic responses:
"We give countless examples" (no examples given)
"It's no one's job to indulge bad faith arguments such as yours" (ditto)
@TheCriticalDri2
Halle Berry the hottest, Julie Newmar the best. Michelle Pfeiffer - a scrawny, annoyance wrapped in a bin bag - by far the worst.
The TV series is still the gold standard for portrayals of the classic Bat-Villains.
@mattxiv
What will actually happen:
'The they/thems are accusing JKR of holocaust denial now? Jesus - they really are terrible people and my weary apathy towards these tiresome, attention seeking perverts is now full on hostility'
Well done - you're speed running your own destruction!
@Valentine721
@TSoS_
Yes - start and end the film with the Jones' living a happy domestic life, and squeeze that last big adventure in between. Would that really have been so difficult?
@DanSlott
I respect a man who has a private jet full of strippers. Because we'd all do that given the chance.
I do not respect a lawyer - male or female - who acts like a ho' in full view of their collegues during office hours. Because it's neither the time nor the place.
@Ray_Harryhausen
Crazy to think that, in 1973, you could go to the cinema & watch him steal the show in Sinbad & Vault of Horror - or catch him on TV in a big budget Frankenstein mini series - while the man himself was working on a building site. Don't worry Tom, I'm sure something will turn up!
@DVATW
I've heard ugly rumours that the production team are considering casting a heterosexual in one of the episodes.
I'm staying in my safe space till it's been debunked.
@TheCriticalDri2
The original Scooby-Doo cartoon was great as it was - thrilling and fun with a bunch of likeable, endearing characters. Why is there this never ending obsession with turning it into an edgy, cynical, not-for-children property full of hateful toss-pots?
@ArchRose90
You'd like to think someone in the BBC is looking at this and thinking 'Why do we pay someone *millions* to present this?' - but I suspect they're more likely to be thinking 'Who *else* can we pay millions to present this?'
@JolyonMaugham
Because in one case their use is preventing an abnormal condition - in the other, they're *creating* an abnormal condition. Hope that clears things up for you.
@ShempMeister
I wonder if these people have ever considered that, if Dr Who landed on a planet where vulnerable children were being pumped full of harmful drugs & subjected to horrific surgical mutilation, he'd probably spend the next 4 eps (6 if Pertwee) doing everything he could to stop it?

Take the exact same situation, reverse the political leanings of the people involved and Rob would have Rittenhouse's picture pinned up on his wall - gazing at it every night with love hearts in his eyes.
@dimwittedly
As I've always said, with an '...of the Daleks' story, it's not about surprise, it's about anticipation. You know the whole episode is building up to the Daleks' first appearance so you're on the edge of your seat waiting for it to happen. It's Hitchcock's ticking bomb scenario.
@DadTrans
Harold Russell lost both hands in WW2. In 1947 he won an Oscar.
Allowing children to play with grenades can help them live full, successful lives.
@JamesMelville
Yes - the ill and elderly take precautions. Fatties - lose weight. Everyone else: carry on as normal, maybe take the day off if you get the sniffles. That would've been my response to the Covid 'crisis'.
@dgellis0907
Maybe you should be more concerned about 'a worldwide brand that has young adults & children as part of its target audience' pushing insane and harmful gender ideology onto its impressionable viewers?
@BarbaraYetaxa
Turlough and Nyssa have two stories together - but share the screen for just a few seconds (a single shot in Mawdryn Undead) and say nothing to each other across the eight episodes.
Which is odd.
@laurenstardis_
And kudos to Brian Hodgson, creator of the Tardis take-off noise, who registered it as 'Music' rather than 'Sound Effects' - meaning he'd get paid whenever it was used.
Next level thinking!
@TheCriticalDri2
It's just a joke scene, but it really shows what a good actor Heston was (I'll go to my unmarked grave arguing that his performance in Planet of the Apes is one of the greatest in cinema history)
@the_spacebook
The more PC, preachy and pandering this show got, the more viewers deserted it. You'd think the BBC would've learnt a very obvious lesson from that...but no. They doubled down and killed their golden goose stone dead.

I wonder if RTD has stopped to realise that The Daleks are also disabled people in wheelchairs? The Cybermen's prosthetic limbs could be a problem too & surely The Sontarans are offensive to those suffering from hair loss? So much to ruin - so little time before cancellation!
@BarbaraYetaxa
People really need to understand the difference between 'Good' filler (Dr Who gets chased across The Matrix by Samurais, crocodiles & Bi-Planes for an episode) & 'Bad' Filler ('Dr Who discusses the Tardis fuel guage for 25 mins')
'Dr Who steps on a land mine' is 'good' filler.
@Spacecrafting76
Watched Terror of the Zygons recently. It's about a bunch of illegal immigrants that come over here, decide our rules aren't for them & act in a rather unsociable manner – murdering locals and the like. Dr Who solves the problem by killing them all. With a big grin on his face.
@HailEternal
He's 50 years old. He'll be about 53 when the next Bond pic is released - pushing 60 when the one after that comes out. There's no way whatsoever he would've been seriously considered for the role.
@TonyDowson5
Yes - embraced for who he was not what he wrote.
Apparently the next series of Dr Who will have a tribute episode where the eccentric Time Lord tells him he was better than Shelley (casting spoilers below)

No one is 'angry' at the person taking their 11th booster, who hasn't left their house for 4 years, is still wearing a mask and yet suffering from their 6th bout of Covid ('which would've been so much worse without the vaccine'). It's just kind of sad really.

Coppola and Puzo apparantly wanted 18 months to write the Godfather III script. Paramount told then they had 6. At least they saved on a year's worth of stationary.
@bornposting
Also worth remembering that when Spielberg was pining to Lucas about his desire to make a Bond pic, he was coming off the disaster of 1941, while the 007 team had just scored the biggest film of the year with Moonraker.

@EpicFilmGuys
It's a character that's already caked in make up - he'll probably look exactly the same. It's not as if Keaton has ballooned in weight or anything.
@StarWhovian
Odd - you'd think a programme that seems determined to alienate and demonise the majority of its potential audience and promote the more, er, colourful sexual quirks of a tiny minority would see its ratings increase...
@PrisonPlanet
On the hottest day ever!!! earlier this year - when heatstroke, death and trees exploding into flames were promised to anyone who dared leave their house - I went to the park and read a book in the sunshine. It was very nice.
@IamJackThursby
The modern series is like watching a James Bond movie where 007 is handed shrinking rays, a flying carpet and a time machine by Q branch. There's no rules anymore - anyone can do anything and it's shockingly dull as a result.
@meatpuppet71
@TheCriticalDri2
Much as I can't stand Prince Harry, the idea that a Royal Prince of England is punching above his weight is ridiculous. That's literally the Boss Level in terms of bird pulling power.

@andrewdoyle_com
'Cashier' - normal job that a child is likely to encounter every day.
'Top scientist' - none of the above.
Still, top marks for realising that children would rather read about the Californian dust bowl or 19th C. Estates than sailing round the world or riding elephants in India
@jeremylovesyall
But what if I say I love Mad Max 1, 2 & 3 - but find Fury Road a tedious, visually ugly, CGI smear of a film with a lead who seems comatose and not a single character I care about?
@archivetvmus71
An odd but brilliant series - an edgy, subversive comedy disguised as a typical Ronnie Hazelhurst scored sit-com. Wish this had got the big screen treatment like most of the other 70's big hitters.

As much as I dislike the idea of becoming desensitised to real violence by watching things like this, there's something very satisfying about seeing something so evil reduced to just a twisted, broken nothing on the floor.
