Many feel that they blew the set up. Forgetting or ignoring SP may not be a bad thing.
Audiences may want a new actor fresh start.. unfairly scapegoating Craig.
Notice before anyone attacks me I said MAY.
Its called life, fj. Like I said, TC has none.
There are others, who don't work ALL the time. All lazy fucks?
Well, it was safe now, wasn't it? I wouldn't overestimate the glory of that. They sure got a lot of PR out of it though. It was PR gold, but the task itsself...I wouldn't call it insane.
Cruise is a renowned workaholic. And workaholics are mostly highly annoying people overcompensating for something or other.
If I had Dan's career i'd be doing exactly the same. Enjoy it, I say :D
As I said - workaholics are mostly highly annoying people overcompensating for something or other :>
Actually it wasn't very safe. there was a great risk some little bit of dirt or grit could hit him in the air and blind or maim him. He had to wear special contact lenses to protect his eyes. There was so many things that could have gone wrong, that it absolutely was insane that they did it for real in this day and age.
Come on. It's hardly the finale of OP is it?
You could tie a 90 year old to the side of a plane. All it takes is the bottle to do it.
I found it the least interesting action scene in the film and it wasn't helped by the fact we'd already seen it a million times in every bit of publicity before it was released.
They were hanging off the bus.
JAMES BOND chiefs are making fans wait two years for the next movie, in a bid to convince DANIEL CRAIG to return.
The break is designed to give Daniel time to wrap up a 20-episode US TV series, Purity, and take on a stint in Othello on Broadway – with the hope he’ll then be persuaded to play 007 for a fifth time.
But Bond producer BARBARA BROCCOLI will be keeping busy, too.
She set up Bad & Beautiful Productions last week alongside Gangs Of New York producer COLIN VAINES to work on an unnamed movie project.
An insider said: “Studio execs really want Daniel as he’s a safe Bond and does well at the box office.
“The next Bond is a special event because it’s the 25th movie.
“After the huge success of Skyfall and Spectre, everyone wants to get this right – nobody wants a reboot with an untested actor.
“Barbara wants Daniel as she’s a massive fan but she also wants to keep busy with other projects in the meantime.”
When asked last year about the prospect of playing the spy again, Daniel said: “I would rather slash my wrists.”
But with Spectre taking £600million at the cinema it’s no wonder they’re so keen to change his mind.
so setting yourself on fire isn't dangerous then. After all, anyone can do that too.
???
The thing was done under very controlled conditions. Yes a bird strike might have proved fatal but the point is anyone can do that stunt with no training or experience.
What Tom did was dangerous compared to doing it on green screen but let's not start thinking he's Rick Sylvester.
That's some good news :-bd
If anyone can do it, it isn't dangerous. That's what you're saying. So there is no danger in setting yourself on fire then. Anyone can do that too.
Not really. For once, TRY to think logical. People do it on little exhibits on air fields and whatnot. Its only a big deal, if a movie star is doing it.
OR do you think, they would let him do it, if it was dangerous? Even TC doesn't have the clouds to let them endanger a high budgeted film.
There's never a 90-year-old around when you need one.
Regarding this latest article on DC & Bab's desire (emphasized) to keep him, I'd like to know who this so called 'insider' is.
Christ you're an idiot.
By your logic playing Beethoven's 9th on the harpsichord whilst reciting the entire works of Shakespeare is therefore dangerous because not many people can do it.
We are talking controlled stunts overseen with an extreme amount of health and safety. Cruise would have been wired onto the side of the plane and could barely move. A dead pig could have done that stunt just the same. Tom was a passenger. Its no different to this which we can all do if we come up with the requisite £399: http://www.aerosuperbatics.com/beawingwalker
Pouring a can of petrol over yourself and lighting it is extremely dangerous but only a fool would equate the two things as the same.
I'm not sure @Germanlady - the writer of the article quotes 'an insider' as his source. That sounds pretty conclusive to me!
Imo, most of what we read and hear right now is just people trying to apply some logic on what could happen, what might be the status quo right now. Same that is done here.
But it doesnt make it any more true. Give me -who is that guy from the DM or Sun, not sure -who always really knows his facts? I would believe him.
'We will have to wait two years for the next Bond film.'
Well 2018 was always likely to be the release date as the script would have to be virtually finished in the next month to start filming in early 2017.
What is more worrying (even though I treat this story with the contempt it deserves) is Babs exploring other avenues. She has done this before with various theatre endeavours. How about you get someone working on the script right now instead luv?
Agreed ...very few really expected anything before 2018. We already knew Craig and EoN had other projects. Plus the article doesn't state Craig is actually returning.
