This would instantly be the leading contender for new Bond or Bond girl if you-know-who was still calling the shots!
I wish we could like posts..Some people can slay a look like that(Billy Porter comes right to mind.). Cole Escola tho.. :hair:
We might have in the past. But remember the trouble we just had, a lot of those add ons cause issues later. Maybe it’ll be added in?
Then again we tend to get updates/maintenance here after the engine blows up not while the CEL is blinking.

BTW, space I kinda like the look of the new Superman movie. Looks like they got a Henry Cavill clone, and from the trailer, I kinda like the premise.
On the next horizon for us is how to train your Dragon. The boys loved, loved, loved that when they were little probably be too ashamed to watch it with us now .

Disney’s "Snow WOKE" reboot is leaving a legacy it certainly doesn't want, becoming the company’s worst-performing wide-release live-action remake in almost 10 years. The 2025 remake of the original 1937 movie opened March 21 in the U.S. and Canada, and has struggled, earning barely $200 million worldwide. The film’s page on IMDB.com calls the movie "officially a flop," and says its $205.5 million earnings are "miles behind its massive $410 million total cost," including marketing, production, and other items. The site calls the film's disappointing performance "a financial blow which few expected to be this severe, especially with the losses already estimated at over $115 million, per Collider."..........Zegler's career should be over now hopefully.

We now have over 10 MILLION views here! It is testament to this website that it has endured over 18 years and counting. So far we still do not have the announcement of the new Bond to officially declare Cr-egg a former Bond but that should be in the works very shortly hopefully.

You’d be welcome.

Funny thinking back about movies we would watch with the kids, on constant replay, that they as almost adults are kind of embarrassed to admit they liked it.
But man I’m soaked by the good reviews how to train your dragon is getting.

James Bond may live to see another chapter in his new Amazon home, but British director Danny Boyle has ruled himself out of joining him there. The Oscar winner (for Slumdog Millionaire) was the director of the 25th Bond movie, until he dropped out in 2018 over creative differences with the producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson. He was replaced by Cary Joji Fukunaga, and the film No Time to Die was released in 2021. Asked if he would consider picking up the baton again with the sale of the franchise to Amazon, Boyle told Business Insider: “That ship has sailed.” He added that the one regret he had about leaving the project in 2018 was that “the script was really good. John Hodge (Boyle’s longtime collaborator) is a wonderful writer.” Business Insider added that Boyle had previously revealed his plot would revolve around a Russian villain, and would have included the death of Bond – as later eventuated in No Time to Die – as actor Daniel Cr-egg had negotiated that finale as part of his contract...........another misguided director wanting Bond to be killed off. What are the plans then AFTER that film in the future, or are there no plans and they just wing it for the next film, if there will ever be another one?

It sounds like he didn't so much want it as have it forced upon him. But it does surprise me a little, as I thought that was the reason he left. We'll probably never know the real reason, as it would be unprofessional of him to reveal too much.

Obviously the next film will be a reboot, though hopefully not another origin story.

Good time was had by all
Including the surly teenager, who really didn’t wanna be there , also really didn’t wanna miss anything when he went to the bathroom. Getting annoyed his younger brother was taking too long .
Fun movie. We missed all the ads because it took so long at the concession stand however we’re entering the doors The classic how to train your Dragon theme was just beginning. Set the mood right there.

Younger kids, of course preteens are early teens really loved it

Wasn’t he the director that wanted to have a brain injury from the previous movie?
Basically make everything that happen in the last movie, like part of head trauma and have a different story to wrap it up with. I think that was the same guy.

Jonathan Bailey, best known for his charming portrayal of Anthony Bridgerton in the hit 'Bridgerton' is now finding himself at the center of a new kind of fan campaign, one that envisions him donning the iconic tuxedo of James Bond. Though the actor has been named as a potential successor to Daniel Cr-egg, Bailey remains cautiously uncertain about the possibility. During a recent appearance on The Scott Mills Breakfast Show on BBC Radio 2, Bailey was asked about the long-standing rumors linking him to the legendary 007 role. When host Scott Mills posed the question of whether he’d actually want to play Bond, Bailey hesitated before admitting, “I don’t know… I’m not sure… it would be hard to say no.” Image

Doesn't look like there's much substance to this one, but I thought I'd post it anyway: https://www.worldofreel.com/blog/2025/6 ... -next-year

Short version: Amazon has pencilled in an untitled film for release on what would have been Ian Fleming's 100th birthday. Could it be Bond 26?

"May 20, 2027 release date for an untitled film. Could it be Bond? Maybe. But what’s more than a little intriguing is that the date just so happens to mark what would be Ian Fleming’s 120th birthday."

Not to be pedantic but that would be Ian's 119th birthday as he was born in 1908. If this is the case Amazon is already putting far more thought into notable dates in Bond history than Babz ever did.

And I mistyped it as 100th.

Tangentially related but some of the early reviews for the new 28 Days Later (28 Years Later) are no bueno. ATJ’s name has been mentioned a few times.

Asked about what he’s doing next in his career following the release of the long-awaited horror sequel 28 Years Later, Aaron Taylor-Johnson cryptically replied, “I can’t talk about it,” before being ushered away. The actor, who is best known for roles in the likes of Kick-Ass, Bullet Train, and Kraven the Hunter has long been rumored for the role of James Bond, often finding himself at the top of bookies' lists. Now, fans are convinced that such secrecy can only mean one thing: Aaron Taylor-Johnson is James Bond..........if the MOMMA's boy is selected by Pascal then they should use Darla Hood to sing the theme song: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQbLtWBClU8

According to Puck (via ActioNewz.com), Pascal and Heyman have finally started meeting with filmmakers for the next James Bond movie. Those are Edward Berger (Conclave), Denis Villeneuve (Dune), Edgar Wright (Baby Driver), Jonathan Nolan (Fallout), and Paul King (Paddington).
