  • Bond super fan Calvin Dysons updated Bond movie ranking list ( I didn’t know where else to post this ) Never seen Moonraker rated so highly in a ranking list before!

  • Also,this year marks 8 years since the release of the last Trek movie.Marking the largest absence of Trek from the big screen.Just how incompetent are Paramount and Bad Robot at letting their golden goose die a slow death over the last decade? Th…

  • Great.ANOTHER classic Trek prequel. Star Trek is boldly going backward.Star Trek used to be about looking to the future.

  • Bit too late for an Indy game now that Dial Of Destiny killed the franchise ( it lost over a hundred million dollars for Disney on top of all the other flops they had this year.
  • The Rey film is being helmed by self confessed activist with no feature film experience.She also loves to make men “ uncomfortable “. Yep,that’s gonna bomb just as hard as The Marvels😆
  • Modern day Trek isn’t just about how woke it’s gotten ( And no,Star Trek has never been woke,it’s been progressive,I don’t remember anyone lecturing Scotty about the “ proper “ use of pronouns and Kirk’s bridge crew being almost entirely female whic…
  • I gave Strange New Worlds a chance,but it’s just more woke garbage from Kurtzman.I like Anson Mount as Pike but it seems the creators can’t have more than one charismatic white male lead on the show so fill the rest of his crew with women and turn K…

  • I think Nolan is such a big name director now,that Eon needs him more than he needs them.Particularly after the blockbuster success of Oppenheimer. He won’t settle for anything less than total creative control and I can’t see him doing the next B…
  • Whether a Bond actor has or will at some time win an Oscar is irrelevant as the Oscars themselves have been irrelevant for many years now.The ceremony is just a woke circle jerk amongst the hollyweird elite every year. There are plenty of great a…
  • I think Cavill is a decent actor ( Seems like a genuinely nice bloke too ) He looks like a guy who can score chicks and beat the crap out of people with ease.That’s a genuinely good fit for Bond.I think if he brings some if that hard edge he brou…
  • Cavill is only 40 and looks at least 5 years younger than that.Both Brosnan and Moore started their tenure in their early forties and it only really became an issue for Moore when he did at least one Bond too many. Besides,I believe Bond should h…
  • I think Connery convincingly acted scared and vulnerable after he got shot in the leg and was being chased by Volpe and her men through the Junkanoo in TB. Of course he turns on the unflappable charm again when he has to dance with her again but Bon…
  • Not much of a Godzilla universe fan but Iv heard nothing but great things about Minus One. Would like to see but my local cinema isn’t showing it😡

  • I feel Henry Cavill was lucky to escape with his life after shooting that scene in Fallout where Alec Baldwin points a gun at him.. “ Guns empty,what about this one…want to find out? “ 😳

  • I really do believe Ilsa is dead because.. 1) They lulled us into a false sense of security by “ killing “ her in the opening of the film only for it to be fake before actually killing her for real. 2) Ethan finds her with a big knife sticking…

  • I’m disappointed that we didn’t get a solo Dr.Fate movie with Pierce.He was terrific in that role.
