FBF, this story relates to your hero, Steven Seagal. Julius Nasso was Seagal's producer in many movies Nasso was the Head of International Promotions for the action film Above the Law (1986). This led to a 17-year producing partnership with Warner Brothers Studios, where Nasso was responsible for producing a series of action blockbusters including: Hard to Kill (1990), Marked for Death (1990), Out for Justice (1991), Under Siege (1992), On Deadly Ground (1994), Under Siege 2: Dark Territory (1995), The Glimmer Man (1996), Fire Down Below (1997) and The Patriot (1998)..................On March 14, 2017, Nasso made headlines when two ponies belonging to him escaped from their barn during a snowstorm on Staten Island yesterday in NY. The ponies, Blondie and Jewels, were quickly captured and returned to Nasso with the help of an off-duty police officer. [video][/video]

Nasso is off the radar nowadays.

Steven Seagal is a much better actor than Pierce Brosnan.

read the book not too long ago, didn't recall his name but a much more interesting character than the movie made him, mads was great in the role but looking back the story didn't do him justice. He was also great in rogue one, I know your a fan of his, while I've grown think he was too good for bond, sadly Eva green was just about right Craig's bond.

Watched legend of Tarzan 2016, almost went to the movies to see it then didn't now I wish we had gone. Actually very good, Christopher waltz was much better in Tarzan (and Tarantino movies) than in SP. margot Robbie is fast becoming a favorite actor between Tarzan and suicide squad she's got an incredible range. She'd be great for bond or would be just got to get a decent bond with Craig she'd look too good and too young.
Vudu was pushing movies on sale one was defiance picture of Craig looked like crap and he was ten years younger in that movie!

Also for st patties day vudu had a sale on Irish movies featured many brosnan movies, probably should of mentioned this to Fbf when the sale was still on.

From a review of Beauty and the Beast on the Christian website Hollywood Jesus:

Alright, now let’s address the big elephant in the room; the matter of LeFou being gay. After seeing the film, this isn’t something I would have addressed, but because everyone’s been addressing it and boycotting it and extolling it or complaining about it (mostly before ever actually seeing the movie), I sort of feel forced to say something about it. So here’s my take: if I hadn’t been told ahead of time in a propagandistic agenda blitz that LeFou was gay, I don’t know that I would have even noticed. I probably would have just thought he was a goofy, fawning, slightly effeminate, Gaston wanna-be fanboy. And yes, that even includes his “exclusive” moment. Now, I can’t say that for sure because it’s impossible to approach this character with any sort of objectivity, but I think that’s how I would have felt. That issue aside, I will say this about the character; he has one of my favorite new additions to this story and his character arc goes in a surprising direction (that doesn’t involve his sexual orientation). However, he’s also a bit erratic and somewhat unsure as a character; is he a Gaston wanna-be? A fawning and ridiculously overprotective fanboy? A goofy, silly sidekick? A concerned conscience figure? LeFou swings between all of these things and never seems to land on anyone of them or find any successful combination of them, which is sort of a microcosm for the problems of this film overall. The movie itself never feels quite sure what it wants to be; a faithful remake? A new and slightly different reenactment of a familiar story? Something new based on something familiar? The movie never seems quite sure which it is, and doesn’t always successfully blend any of those identities together.

Pretty much what I suspected, in other words.

"Beauty and the Beast" hit theaters this weekend. Fans rushed to see the film, but Movieguide's Dr. Ted Baehr says it's "marred" with "gratuitous politically correct homosexual references that are...in your face."

That doesn't surprise me. Movieguide strikes me as being much more black and white in its thinking than Hollywood Jesus. The latter's approach is to examine a movie's themes and characters and look for resonances with biblical imagery. Movieguide, on the other hand, simply counts up the amount of sex, violence and bad language in order to tell you just how outraged to be.

By the way, have you seen Logan yet? It explicitly references one of your favourite movies, Shane, at several points, and the second half of the film in particular can be seen as a western in superhero drag.

I have not seen ANY X-Men films, except the first Wolverine, and that was on tv. I was never interested in that comic book series. Shane? They mention Shane? [video][/video]

[video][/video] Another classic film I love

Beauty and the Beast will look to continue its domestic performance over the coming weeks after receiving an "A" CinemaScore from opening day audiences of which 72% were female vs. 28% male and 45% of opening day audience members were under the age of 25. Beyond opening weekend the overall audience breakdown saw a 60% female vs. 40% male split, of which 52% were under the age of 25.........40% men, for this?

Without wanting to give too much away, the main characters are seen watching it on TV in a hotel room at one point, and one of them quotes a speech from it later in the film. There are also several more indirect references to its themes and motifs.

[bjmdds]

I wonder why? Modern movies needing to use classic westerns for effects shows how limited the current originality is.

It's the wolverines last stand. Go western or go home

Stupid apple spell check, changed punks chanting USA to links?? It did this twice when I tried to correct it. If it did it as I typed I'd catch it, apple does it after a sentence or two and right before hitting send
