    He has a Minor role in the film.
    I was just cracking a joke when I wrote this. Luckily, I just checked and it turns out Lee Majors actually has a Minor role in the film, so all is good in the world.

    ‘Highlander’ Remake Will Use Queen Songs From the Original Movie, Director Chad Stahelski Says

    Not sure how I feel about this, I think the new film should have it's own identity. I am a huge Queen fan and there music is so woven into the original film.
    For me, this scene is unbeatable.

    Tired brain the minor joke went over my head 😂

    Great scene as well as Queens songs the score was also good, there is some excellent snappy dialogue in this classic film.

    Emailing IFC Center, Film Forum, Nitehawk and Alamo Drafthouse to ask/encourage them to do some NYC screenings for the love of god, I have to see that in a theater!

    You should be able to get tickets for November 29th's sneak preview today (Nov 3rd - "Godzilla Day").

    I'm with you @Lucknfate. As of this writing, the Alamo Drafthouse doesn't have it on their schedule and I don't think that the IFC Center or the Film Forum would program a new "popcorn" flick - being focused more on indie and older titles. Interestingly, back in 2004, The Film Forum had a two-week Godzilla-Thon and they have screened Gojira (1954) on many occasions.

    So far, the early reviews out of Japan for GODZILLA: MINUS ONE have been extremely positive. I think my only question is whether general US audiences will sit through a sub-titled movie. Godzilla fans will, but I'm not clear about everyone else.

    BTW: While my plans are not final, I'm considering going for tomorrow's screening of the 1950 Howard Hawks version of "The Thing."

    I have tentative plans with a friend (who doesn't enjoy going to the cinema much, strangely) for tomorrow, but if you know which FF screening time you're going to, I may be able to make the later one, things pending.

    As for Minus One, I know IFC has been playing some of the latest Indian/Bollywood import blockbusters during their global release windows recently, which made me think there's a chance we'll get this.

    Watched The Killer last night.
    It's basically Hitman in film mode, some of same locations, outfits and methods. I think the font is even from one of the games on each of the chapters.

    Really well done I thought.

    I didn't think I could be any more excited for the film but there it is.

    Its not being widely released which is disappointing! My local cinema is not showing it, so I will have to venture further to see it on the big screen! Mark Kermodes review of it is quite interesting, particularly Tilda Swintons appearance!

    @LucknFate: Sorry for the delay in responding. I did get to see "The Thing From Another World" on Saturday, but I went to the early screening, and it was a very last minute decision.

    While I love the film, the 35mm print used for the screening had several noticeable video and audio hiccups. And, unless I completely blacked out, there was an entire scene missing: the 'Japanese Torture' sequence in Nikki's room. Which always gets a laugh on the internet whenever the film is shown on TCM.

    Here is director John Carpenter introducing the film on TCM some years ago.


    BTW: As much as I liked Carpenter's version, it could have used ......

    Glad you got to go! I was considering the later showing, or I think they were also showing a late-later Invasion of the Body Snatchers; unforch I was feeling under the weather and didn't make it out at all. Glad you enjoyed it. Perhaps next weekend!

    It's a maybe, I am a big Garfield fan. Plus, Mark Dindal directed The Emperor's New Groove (saving it possibly in the process), so I'll likely give it a chance. However, dear Hollywood, there are other actors besides Chris Pratt and Samuel L. Jackson. Both have been playing the same role for years, now.

    The contributors to this film including Mr. Brosnan have my attention.

    Looks like a student film shot with a DSLR and too much vaseline on the lens, with zero budget for set lighting or interesting locations. Some of the trailer dialogue is two men standing in a grass yard at blue hour just talking face to face with down-angle perspective, no eye light, no highlight, no bounce, no edge light to make them stand out in the darkness, like it was shot by the director standing in a parking lot. Doesn't seem like a real movie beyond Pierce seemingly trying.

    Yeah I thought the sequel was pretty abysmal and suffered with that PG-13 rating.

    I am always concerned with Netflix films as they seem to have a certain way of shooting there movies which I am not overly keen on. I do hear that Finchers The Killer bucks the trend thankfully.

    I have only seen parts of Season 1 from Cobra Kai, so if they directly lead on from that series I will be a bit lost.

    McCarthyism 2.0. This is where cancel culture at its worst takes us. Assumptions of bigotry where there very well may be none, then unfair firings and defamation. Just day to day I try to avoid saying anything bad about someone who is a minority because I fear I’ll be deemed racist even when all I’ve pointed out would be related to character and actions. People suck.

    Looks pretty good and I do like Anya Taylo- Joy, though part of me is thinking have already watched this with Fury Road.
