It looks like it will be better than Man Of Steel from the trailers. It won't be a blockbuster, but it should outdo MOS for sure, plus Gal Gadot is easy on the eyes. :lol:

Not with Cr-egg our Miss V.......this could be Broccoli's next Bond if our FBF gets his wish: Image Gadot goes with Aidan only :!: ---------Actress Gal Gadot turned down the chance to become a Bond girl because she thought she was too serious for such a frivolous role.

The new mom was a student when she was approached about a part in Quantum of Solace, and decided to stick to her studies.

“I said, ‘No way’,” the Israeli beauty tells W magazine. “I said, ‘I’m studying law and international relations. I’m way too serious and smart to be an actress, and besides, the script is all in English’. I spoke English, but I wasn’t comfortable with it.”

She went on to make her Hollywood blockbuster debut a year later in 2009’s Fast and Furious, and returned to the franchise as Gisele for Fast 5, Fast & Furious 6, and Furious 7. Image Image Now these 2 in a Bond film is casting gold :!: Here that Broccoli? Our Miss V knows her onions :!: Gadot is the 21st century's Diana Rigg for Bond :!:

Grrrr, way for them to bend the truth! From your quotes BJ, it doesn't sound like she thought Bond was frivolous at all!

So, she wasn't an actress when they approached her about Bond!

And, she said she was too serious for any acting, not too serious for Bond! :roll:

Oh, well, that's clearly much less frivolous. :roll:

Now that she is the star of her own franchise, she may not want to settle for second or third billing.

Gregg Allman, the soulful singer-songwriter and rock 'n' blues pioneer who founded The Allman Brothers Band with his late brother, Duane, and composed such classics as "Midnight Rider," "Melissa" and the epic concert jam "Whipping Post," has died at age 69. He was diagnosed with hepatitis C in 1999 and underwent a liver transplant in 2010.

This year’s Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales, which at a $230M negative cost before P&A, is coming in well below its $80M-$85M projections with $62.7M to $63.7M over 3-days and $76M to $78M over 4 days...............Baywatch isn’t bailing out Paramount after an atrocious 2017 at the domestic box office. Tracking had this movie over 5 days in the $40M range, maybe even hitting $50M, and this Dwayne Johnson-Zac Efron combo is going to come in with $24.8 to $25M+ over five days. :lol: Both films have been eviscerated on Rotten Tomatoes with respective 32% and 19% ratings! :down:..................Currently, Wonder Woman‘s opening weekend is on par with the feature starts of such other big superhero properties as 2011’s Captain America: First Avenger ($65M) and Thor ($65.7M). Wonder Woman is also poised to come in higher than the first weekend of Marvel’s Ant-Man ($57.2M).

Sounds like pirates will not do well in the US, but pirates 4 didn't do that great in the US either the world wide BO is always $600 to $800 million, it has to fail there to be a failure

Paramount's Baywatch opening was even topped by Disney's Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2 (which was in its fourth weekend of release.) The R-rated comedy starring Dwayne Johnson delivered a meager $18.1 million for the three-day weekend and is expected to finish around $22 million for the four-day holiday weekend.

Sorry NS, I only just noticed you already posted this before me. You know, I think this could be the performance which lands DC that elusive Oscar. :lol:

These are the roles Cr-egg is perfect for, that being a pathetic criminal dolt, and there is not much acting required for him to portray such a loathsome individual :!:

Image Tiger Woods was arrested on charges of driving under the influence early this morning in Jupiter, Fla., according to a report from WPTV. Woods spent nearly eight hours in custody after his arrest, per jail records. The 14-time major winner hasn't won a tournament since 2013. His future on tour is as murky as ever as injuries persist. This off-the-course incident will do little to quell the uncertainty - or the spotlight.........good riddance to this pathetic waste of self-indulgent humanity :!:

His comedic skills are legendary in the same way Tommy Wiseau's The Room is legendary.

The fact that someone said Daniel Craig and comedic skills in the same sentence is about the only thing funny about him!
