Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

I just want to add one more thing about BvS. I don't have a problem believing it's making money or is going to, for a lot of reasons not the least of which is Ale saying so. I have no doubt she knows more than I ever will and that her friend at WB did and said exactly what she says. Also the front ...

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

According to very well informed people in the business, Daniel Craig HAS officially quit Bond. Nobody is eating crow over BvS. It's got a bad rep and it'll keep it. WB took a breather to try to correct the next DC movies coming up and I think cavill will probably be busy with the series for the next...

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

I have an immense amount amount of respect for you, but I cannot believe BvS is a smashing Financial success when dozens of reports show the cost and amount to break even was a billion at the bo. Now they have a lot of options like home video toys and shifting costs to planned movies in the series....

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

As for the Bond look, I'd have to dig to find them, but there are some photos of him that remind me of that famous sketch that Fleming commissioned. I may have been thinking of the Jaguar advert: http://www.adweek.com/files/imagecache/node-blog/blogs/tom-hiddleston-hed-2014.jpg https://upload.wikim...

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

Where the heck have you been Ms. Bouvier, AWOL? Can it FINALLY be that Broccoli is dumping Cr-egg? This guy is not Bond material. There is more "new" Q than Bond in him. http://lovelace-media.imgix.net/getty/103077404.jpg?w=700&fit=max&auto=format&q=70 By the way, Cavill's franchise is NOT doing we...

As for the Bond look, I'd have to dig to find them, but there are some photos of him that remind me of that famous sketch that Fleming commissioned. I think with the right hairstyle and proper attitude, he CAN DEFINITELY be much better than Craig. As I said, for me Bond is Henry Cavill and him only...

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

What is the P&A expense for ECH-TRE? $100 million? $150 million? It wraps up this weekend in Japan so there should be an actual total revealed by SONY/EON/MGM, or do they fudge the numbers and hide the truth? If they received $100 million in product placement, that cut their outlay from $350 millio...

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

Where it goes depends on a few things, but essentially, they are losing money with this movie and that's the only thing that matters. Sony is in complete chaos and people are leaving left and right, and it's impossible to forecast what is next. I would think WB will in the end take over and that wil...

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

I'm not even going to waste time addressing trolls, you all have already done an excellent job at showing things for what they are. In case these people don't know, movies make their profit in the first two weekends, mainly in the first one, in the US. So. This one was well below the previous and BJ...

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

We definitely have very different ideas on what constitutes a good movie, and especially a good Bond movie. I have rarely seen something as stupid and insipid as Spectre, and in any case Daniel Craig never played James Bond in any of his movies, so as far as I'm concerned the primary element is miss...

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

I'm curious to understand why you deem White's scenes one of the best in the movie. I found that absolutely ridiculous and preposterous. A soap opera cliché exploited to desperately try to make sense of a nonsensical movie and of a group of disjointed and nonsensical movies that Craig did altogethe...

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

I write scripts. So I'm sorry to inform you, a script not only tells me perfectly if a movie is good or bad, but it tells me MORE than the movie does. I MUCH prefer reading scripts to watching movies because the script shows you things how they are supposed to be, the film is things that may be pla...

I be happy if this ment they were making traditional Bond again and it pissed the Bourne Bond fans off but thing is I've seen the script they made the movie from it is not the traditional element that fail it its doing them wrong and the story that is the let down.

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

It's time for new writers too, who know how to write action packed scenes combined with spy intrigue, just like the MI films have done. Broccoli should be bought out and the writers of MI:4 and MI:5 should be hired with Henry Cavill in the role as the 7th 007 with this scene introducing him, ala, O...
