Not if they re-edit it to get a PG-13. Maybe on the uncut edition DVD?

Is the Empire list a fan poll?

Purvis and Wade are a bit strange in that they do not seem to have written much apart from the Bonds.

Let Him Have It is a fine film, and I quite liked Plunkett & Maclean, though that's a bit of a Marmite movie. And there's Johnny English....

Are you reading the tenth anniversary edition?
Just got past the Shawshank opener myself.

Their non-Bond films are quite good, but they have only written a few bits outside of Bond?

We didn't go to apes this afternoon after all . Looks good and did pretty well this weekend.

But Hollywood is still down 20% will they ever realize they are pricing a lot of people out of the movies?
Next year is jam packed with really big names so the headline will be about bigger than ever BOs

The majority of these blockbusters remain fantasy/superhero films too.

Avoiding the spoiler as best I can. For now.

Once I figured out who Wednesday was I kept picturing Anthony Hopkins.

Swedish actress Rebecca Ferguson is cast as the female lead role alongside Tom Cruise's character in the upcoming Mission Impossible 5. Paramount Pictures, Skydance, and Bad Robot have also commissioned Alec Baldwin to play as the CIA chief. The film is set to premiere next year, and production starts in August with director Chris McQuarrie (The Way of the Gun, Jack Reacher). In a recent report by Deadline, 30 Rock lead Baldwin, is currently in talks with film producers on what is one of the most coveted roles. Laurence Fishburne played a similar role in the previous film installments including the recent Ghost Protocol. Meanwhile, Ferguson was given the female role after Oscar nominee Jessica Chastain declined the offer. The actress also starred in BBC's The White Queen. 'MI 5' is set to film scenes in London including shots inside the House of Parliament. The film, which focuses on the return of Ethan Hunt, is under the supervision of executive producer J.J. Abrams. Mission Impossible 5 is a part of a long running saga that started in 1996 as an adaptation of a television series from back in the 60s and 70s. Simon Pegg (Benji Dunn) and Jeremy Renner (Wiliam Brandt) are included in the sequel as they are set to re-take their roles. Mission Impossible 5 is set to premiere in theaters worldwide on December 25, 2015. The film is written by Will Staples and Drew Pearce, who was also a co-writer for Iron Man 3.

Did Russia shoot down passenger jet? Almost hard to believe they'd be that stupid.

Some separatist group leader bragged about it on the Russian facebook equivalent, then deleted it. The military commander of the rebels, a Russian named Igor Strelkov, had written on his social media page at 1337 GMT, half an hour before the last reported contact with MH-17, that his forces had brought down an Antonov An-26 in the same area. It is a turboprop transport plane of a type used by Ukraine's forces. There was no comment on that from the Ukrainian military. Reports state 23 Americans might have been on board.

Whoever's in charge of MI5 is making a terrible mistake of releasing it the week after the Jedi's return.
