I'll always be upset we didn't get that World War Z sequel directed by him. What an insane experience that would've been.
Edit with link now: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-7508081/James-Bond-star-L-Seydoux-consoled-director-Cary-Fukunaga-set-No-Time-Die-Italy.html
She was probably just ‘in the moment’ after doing a take for the finale scene…that picture could’ve been taken immediately after he yelled cut
I agree and don’t think he would have done anything untoward with alphas like Craig and Broccoli overseeing the production.
Isn’t that also true of Will Ferrell? I’m sure I heard he was one of the least bankable stars of recent years.
Films, obviously.
TV (House of Cards and Mindhunter)
Animated short films (Bad Traveling)
His films @Benjamin_Weekly69 ,and the genres he plays in, no longer fit the cinema paradigm as much anymore… if he did World War Z2, you’ll see a Fincher film in the cinema… his new film, The Killer, with Fassbender, may also see him back on the Big Screen… But generally, until cinemas recover from a worldwide pandemic, the Big Screen films will be FF and Marvel and DC and Bond and Indy and SW, and so on…
There will be recovery one day. And I think with recovery, will be balance.
I honestly don’t think cinema going will recover to previous levels until we get a well done contemporary cult comedy that is offensive, outrageous and over the the top like Scary Movie, American Pie, Team America or The Dictator. Until then it’s going to be children/family/superheroes/horror/drama/remakes.
Right now films are as if the internet and cultural desensitisation never happened. Most people between 20-50 are utterly bored with the quality of the current slate. There has to be pop culture relevance and a fear of missing out to attract movie goers. Pretentious art cinema and tedious drama are wrong ideals to pursue.
Yeah I think ‘cancelled’ is the wrong term; it’s just more an issue of profitability, which I guess is how most stars fade! :)
I don't think those photo's relate to any of the accusations, Lea and Cary seemed to have a fairly good rapport from the behind the scenes pics and videos we've seen of them.
However, quite a few of the insta stories Cary shared on his public account correspond to the times and locations mentioned in the original posts by the women who accused him of 'grooming'.
I must also point out that Fincher worked on The Social Network, with producer Scott Rudin, who was extremely mercurial, and had violent outbursts towards his assistants, which were common knowledge among the industry. Last year, THR put together a piece on him, and he's currently "stepping back" from any project. Rudin also had a track record with awards (10 nominations at the Oscars for Best Film, one win) which doesn't match the quality of the films he was involved with.
The pretentious people making up the film ecosystem, who would have these directors out of work, are the ones struggling to garner audiences.
Hating certain behaviours is obviously a mask for controlling content and opportunity, which is what Tarantino alluded to in his last film.
If you cannot navigate social media or get access to traditional institutions you are done for, which is why most movies suck nowadays.
I think this is what plagued Steven Soderbergh's Logan Lucky, a really good film with an exceptional cast that...tanked at the box office. Soderbergh wanted complete control, including the marketing of the film. Truth was, Soderbergh knew nothing about marketing or getting a film pushed into the public arena. Craig did his part, appearing on Colbert, but the big news was his announcement that he was returning as Bond--not Logan Lucky. Whooops.
In short, Logan Lucky is a cautionary tale about a great director's disdain for the traditional studio model and how that disdain led him down the wrong path.
I have at least 15 more photos from that rocky set in Maratea with Lea and Cary talking, she's being 'upset', Cary prepping her for the crying scene, walking her over to the camera set-up, she's smiling, shooting the scene, etc..
I wish Soderbergh would direct a Bond film.
Soderbergh is a fantastic director who sometimes experiments too much for the sake of experimentation, and the results are hit/miss. I mean., here's a guy who did a whole film on his iPhone. That said, when he wants to go all in on commercial work, he's very good. I liked Logan Lucky very much and bawled like a baby at "that scene."
I'd say Knives Out is pretty cracking too.
Not sure where to put this. Sorry to hear it though.
Remember Alanis Morisette's line all of a sudden: "It's ironic, don't you think?"
I disagree but let's see what the court decides. I think think Amber Heard he issues but other people have backed her claims uom
Yes you do. Just because Depp was acquitted it doesnt mean he knows how to treat women with respect.
Paul Haggis has apparently some kind of reputation for being pushy with women that has nothing to do with scientology sympathizers. That doesn't change anything to the work he's accomplished against the CoS, but I wouldn't be shocked if the arrest held any water.
By arresting someone such as Paul Haggis, who was just passing there a couple of weeks, the Italian police is sure to make the news worldwide. Not the big titles, but it will get some exposure. If they're wrong, the damages done to their reputation would be quite important. So, it's unlikely that they arrested him just because of a random accusation. They definitely considered the case they had and checked up a few things, all the more because he's a Canadian citizen with some level of fame.
I think it'd play out like a Danny Boyle situation all over again. I doubt he'd want to do it. I'm a big fan of his work though, particularly Side Effects and Unsane.
I'd love to read your scripts. By the sounds of your opinions, you're a genius who can set the film industry straight.
I must be a true idiot in your eyes: I loved Skyfall and NTTD.
