How much? Will you buy it? I guess there will be a limited run on NM outside of the USA.

Concerning NM's sequel, the question right now is this: will it be better than its predecessor both critically and financially?

If there will be a sequel, will it be better than its predecessor critically and financially? I hope it will be nothing like his Bond career where his Bonds went downhill after his debut Bond in the eyes of the majority.

I would hope so but it was not marketed well at all and needs to play in a LOT more theatres in the UK for sure :!: I don't understand Brosnan playing the film for only 2 weeks in the UK at 12 and 2 theatres. The UK should be his BEST overseas total, not his worst. :shock:

That's a tough one to answer. One one hand, Dalton never had to worry about typecasting, on the other hand, he hasn't had anything anywhere near Bond where he has had a leading role. Most of his work has flown under the radar. Being labeled as the actor that almost killed off the Bond series couldn't have helped.

Tim is slowly building up his post-Bond career, beginning with Hot Fuzz. He should work with Simon Pegg again.

“Herculean” attempts to find a new home for canceled TNT drama over the past six weeks were unsuccessful, say EPs

Sorry “Dallas” fans, your favorite show's demise wasn't a dream after all.

Efforts to find a new home for the series, which was canceled by TNT in October after three seasons, have failed, according to executive producers Cynthia Cidre and Michael M. Robin said Wednesday.


The pair credited series producers Warner Horizon with making a “Herculean” effort to place the show elsewhere, but nonetheless acknowledged that the search had ended without success.

“After a 6-week attempt to try and land our beloved ‘Dallas’ at another network, we have to inform you that we have not succeeded. Warner Horizon has attempted, in a Herculean way, to try and find us a new home, but at the end of the day it did not work out,” the pair said. :cuss: :cuss: :cuss: :cuss:

Strange considering George Clooney's career only got better after he killed off the Batman films...

Funny old world we live in!

I was disappointed to see that Dallas wasn't able to find a new home. I've got a rant about the quality of TV pilots in me that I'll post here one of these times.

How about them in a spy thriller as 2 retired MI6 agents who are brought back into the fold to smoke out a mole.

Good point. Maybe Dalton never got the offers. Maybe he never went looking for them. Maybe i'm making excuses.

Wasn't Tim's voice supposed to be in Cars 2, in the role that eventually went to Sir Michael Bladdy Caine? I haven't seen Cars 2, but judging by the reviews, it sounds like he dodged a bullet, no pun intended.
