    I've never been a fan of Will Smith.

    Clint Eastwood's next film will be 'The 15:17 to Paris':

    I'm fine with Will Smith being the genie. It's a good choice if it happens imho. Sure I am against these remakes but they could've choosen a much worse choice than Will Smith, I think he fits the character

    Will Smith as Aladin, directed by Guy Ritchie . . . that sounds spectacularly bad to me already. I'm going to wager that film doesn't see the light of day, but maybe I'm wrong.

    Will Smith is not being considered for the role of Aladin.

    @doubleoego, you're right: Will is probably trying to get that part for his kid.

    *I wish that remark came off as much of a joke as it was intended, but I could sadly see that happening*

    I'm okay with Will Smith overall. He's great in Men In Black and many other films I could name. Seriously, who wouldn't love Pursuit of Happiness? He could do both light humour comedy films and serious dark films when he wants. I'd watch him anything because he does have a certain charisma some others don't have. However, I couldn't care less about Aladdin. Never liked it as a kid, never liked it any time afterwards.

    Trailer for Overdrive, starring Scott Eastwood. Man, he really is Clint Eastwood 2.0.

    This looks very cool, can't wait to see it!! Scott Eastwood is one to watch in the future, and this film also features Bond alumni Simon Abkarian!

    I noticed our good friend Kratt from CR is also in that trailer, too.

    This guy Scott looks just like his dad, but he lacks charisma. Seems very wooden and forgettable but he definitely looks the part. When I saw FF8 I kept thinking I was looking at a young Clint when he was on screen.

    He looks like a successor to Paul Walker's type of roles.

    I don't think he looks that much like Clint. Clint was always more of a rugged mans man type. Junior lacks that ruggedness.

    I agree. I'm talking about the g(c)lint in his eyes. I knew he was Clint's son the minute I saw him in FF8. I agree that he lacks a bit of the ruggedness. It almost feels like he needs to smoke a few cigarettes or something and man up a bit.

    Looks interesting. I'm really rooting for Scott Eastwood to do well. He's got perhaps unfairly big shoes to fill.

    So, no more Terminator with Arnie and James on the same platform.

    They've been hyping and dating those sequels since the original. I'll believe it's beginning when the second one is out.

    Part of me would love for the first sequel to tank so their stupid over-planning would make the other releases a financial risk (it's the only way they learn these days), but it'll probably make a combined $4 billion and over.

    Given the state of cinema/box office success today, I've no doubt that any sequels will dominate at the box office; whether they would be on the level of the first one remains to be seen, but I'm sure they'll all end up with at least $1 billion each, if not more.

    Films cost so much now there's an even more monumental risk with this kind of thing, though. But you're right, if Transformers makes bank, these movies will too. It's only inevitable.

    Martin Scorsese adds another project to his upcoming schedule; Killers of the Flower Moon, about 'the murder of several members of the Osage Indian nation after they discovered rich deposits of oil beneath their land and the bungled FBI investigation that followed'. This project, if it happens, will finally pair Scorsese's 2 favorite actors: Robert De Niro and Leonardo Dicaprio.

    Not until you don't add a Brosnan Bond film in your top 10. ;)

    EON would never be so foolish, thankfully.

    I'm on the other side of the fence with that, and I'd want Bond to have fixed dates. But, we all know Eon would never set a foot on that threshold.

    @DaltonCraig007, thanks for that Scorsese note. DiCaprio and DeNiro will be something special I'm sure.

    Regarding the Avatar release dates, either they or SW are going to have to reconsider, otherwise they will cannibalize each other. If I was EON, I would consider moving the Bond dates away from this timeframe as well.
