    I'm more interested in the guns, girls, Jaa and Yen...but yeah, the stunts look bananas.

    I've never seen the first one, the whole 'this generations Bond' thing never appealed to me. The trailer for xXx2, also does nothing for me.

    I watched maybe half the first, then turned it off.

    @MajorDSmythe, I think the first xXx is worth a watch, but #2 is just...no, stay away from that one, trust me. No need to waste two hours you'll never get back. To give you a clue why, it's directed by our old friend, Lee Tamahori. X_X

    I disagree. I thought the second one was far superior to the first.

    You can't go wrong with The "Cube".

    Yep! And I thought Tamahori did a great job with the film.

    TV related, but a very big news: the original Law & Order is coming back as a 'true crime' Anthology Series!

    Oh that's right, there was another xXx film with Ice Cube. I had forgotten about that one. The whole Nu Generation spy thing of the first film (and the constant putting down of the Bond films during the promotion), put me of the film completely. I have nothing against rival series (such as the MI series), a little healthy competition is good for everyone, but I can live without watching the xXx films.

    @DaltonCraig007, do you know if Operation Chromite in English or Korean? I don't think it will get a North American release, so I may have to wait for blu ray.

    @bondjames, all scenes with Neeson are in English (he's playing General MacArthur), but the rest of the film is in Korean, as it a South Korean film.

    Ok, thanks @DaltonCraig007. So it's like Tora! Tora! Tora! then. I'll definitely try and catch it once it gets a blu ray release. I want to see the new Godzilla Resurgence too.

    DreamWorks confirms Shrek 5 will be released in 2019, as well as Shadows, another animated project from Edgar Wright.

    There are 4 Shrek films already?? Funny, just when I saw the abysmal rating the latest Ice Age got on RT 8-> .

    Only the first two Shreks are worth seeing. The other two are awfully abysmal.

    Posting it here, since it's important: Narcos Season 2 trailer:

    Wow @DaltonCraig007! This show looks incredible. Intense as 'f'. I've got to get the first season asap when it's released.

    Thank you, @DaltonCraig007! I was just thinking yesterday how the show is a little over a month and a half away and we still had nothing, but new stills yesterday and a trailer today works for me. Going to check it out momentarily.

    I'm a huge fan of that era of boxing @DaltonCraig007.

    Duran, Leonard, Hearns, Hagler - all legends.

    If you haven't seen the famous 'No Mas' 2nd fight from that era, or the absolutely brutal 3 round destruction of Hearns by Hagler, then you've got to.

    Leonard / Hagler was a classic for the ages as well.

    First I thought, oh no not another bloody western! But then this looks kinda fun. Ethan Hawke, usually there´s nothing more to say, but look at Travolta, he still got something in him!
    And the dog is hilarious :-))!

    Travolta is up there with his Pulp Fiction co-star Jackson, Nicholson, Pacino, The Shat"ner", Malkovich, & Cage as an actor who can chew scenery/ham it up like no other.

    So that's Ti Wests new film? I'm not a fan of Westerns, but I loved West's The House Of The Devil and The Innkeepers.

    I don't know, but for a reason it didn't capture my interest. It's just... the Westerns of today aren't interesting enough for me... Tarantino often pulls it off because he made it his style, but the others... I don't know... It just doesn't have the spirit of the old westerns... Kind of like the lost art of making a good western film.

    If it's Ti West, I highly doubt it'll be a generic, straight-forward western.

    @ClarkDevlin, getting 'Person of Interest' vibes?
    @bondjames After Tommy Lee Jones as the CIA director in 'Jason Bourne', Nicolas Cage is playing the same role in this film.

    New trailer for Oliver Stone's Snowden
