I think you meant 2, not 3. I wonder if WB is going to do anything that would push 2 to $1 billion.
yep, I intended to say hobbit 2. Wasn't it WB that rereleased one of the batman movies so it could hit 1 billion? I could see a special hobbit one and two release.

It was the Bat's 2008 match with the Joker. That was 5 years ago. Also WB rereleased both BB and TDK during the time when TDKR was released.

Skyfall star Daniel Craig is reportedly courting Adele to write the theme song for the next Bond film.
The Rolling in the Deep hitmaker won an Oscar and a Golden Globe Award in 2013 for Best Original Song in a Motion Picture for her Skyfall track and the actor is hoping she will return to the studio to record the theme to Craig's next outing as 007 in Bond 24.
A source tells The Sun, "The (movie) chiefs here have made their feelings known to Adele that they want her back for the next film. Daniel has also made it clear he loved Adele and wants her back but she has not responded, which is making them sweat." She could have competition though, with British rockers Biffy Clyro throwing their name in the hat and admitting they would "love" to write a track for one of 007's adventures. Frontman Simon Neil recently said: "Biffy for Bond, yes - I will follow you to the ends of the earth, sir. I'd love that. "I think we've got a couple of songs in our back catalogue that could have suited but that is most songwriters' dream, isn't it, to write for Bond?"

EON should hired Adele for round 3 or 4 when the next Bond who looks less Bond than DC is takes over.

Should the WWE have Cr-egg at Wrestlemania next month?.............Although Ralph Fiennes claims not to know anything about the next Bond film, he has heard some promising gossip. “The rumors are that I’m not stuck behind a desk, that I maybe do get out and maybe there’s a little bit of action for M,” he said. “I hope so.”

For now, though, he’s in the same boat as everyone else — he’s “dying to know” about the next movie but “nothing is forthcoming yet.” Presumably he’ll learn more between now and November 6, 2015, when the movie opens.

Wrestling's not that special anymore so if WWE wants to invite DC, let them do so as they please.

Thanks. :)

I remember hearing so much how depressing the music of Dido was. I never though Dido's music was depressing, but Adele, I can feel my will to live just slip away when I hear any of her songs. Still, if Adele is brought back, it will be just another reason for me to sit this next one out.

Well said, again. They aim it at the audience who are manic depressives and claim to be "Shakespearean", which is, of course, very humiliating. A so-called "James Bond" story with tragic theme, where every character is depressed, they all commit suicide, the bad guys are just awful with incredibly weak causes, the main character loves to go "rogue", as that's b@d@$$ for the modern day audience, performs some fictitious Jason Bourne knock-off fake hand to hand combat, and of course.... a very boring storyline with the length of two and half hours, I nearly fell asleep when I went to see the latest installment in the cinema. They think making it look artsy and that long would give them academy awards... Yawn, oh well, they can live up with it now. Because John Logan said the next thing they do with Craig is to explore his "fears" and "emotions" a lot more, yet the movie is going to "light-hearted" they claimed. Can anyone smell a chick flick to a tee coming up? And since Craig likes to wear female dresses... :lol: :lol:

Twitter is like a forum thread. I never got involved with Twitter personally. Is the meltdown over MP? Have you cooled off and regrouped?

They want Adele to wear a string bikini while eating a hamburger and show that image during her song as well. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Now you're talking FBF :!: She won't win another Oscar so fast with Eon unless the fix is in once again. I watched Segal's Fire Down Below last night. It is so bad I cannot believe he was allowed to make movies. Pierce should thank you for your new avatar.

If EON wants to get into the Oscar realm, why can't they do this while Pierce was Bond?

If you think Fire Down Below is that bad, then you haven't seen anything yet.

Pierce returns to the action realm, not just the spy game.
