An update on Scorsese's Silence...

Quote"This is Marty's best movie," Silence producer Irwin Winkler told me when I ran into him at the Motion Picture Television Fund's 95th anniversary event

Cripes, let's hope it lives up to that.

QuoteWhen we spoke, Winkler said it has been tightened currently to 2 hours and 39 minutes.

Thaz a decent length, so it is.

UPDATED: 'Back to the Future' Fan Celebration Is Coming The Real Twin Pines Mall In 2017.

QuoteUPDATE: The creators of this event have reached out to let us know that this event has been postponed until 2017. The even'ts spokesperson said:

"We want to make this event the best it can be in order to not taint the BTTF brand at all, and things were not coming together to make that possible, so we made the tough, but necessary, decision to postpone the event."

Michael Massee, 'The Crow' Actor Who Accidentally Shot Brandon Lee, Dies at 61.

QuoteThe actor, who has almost 80 film and television credits, is also known for his role as the man at the massage parlor in David Fincher's 1995 thriller "Seven." He worked with the director again in 1997 on "The Game." His other film credits include "Lost Highway" (1997), "Catwoman" (2004), "The Amazing Spider-Man" (2012), and "The Amazing Spider-Man 2" (2014), in which he portrayed Gustav Fiers — aka The Gentleman.

His face is certainly familiar.

Quote from: Bad Ambassador on November 14, 2016, 11:58:22 AMWasn't this already common knowledge? It's definitely mentioned on the DVD.

Weird... I enjoyed delving into the extras/commentary on the 4-disc edition when it came out, I can't remember this.

Anyhoo, couple of scraps... Miyazaki fans rejoice!:

The Goonies 2 Probably Won't Ever Happen, According To One Original Member.

QuoteI wish I had an answer for you, but I can tell you that I really wouldn't expect it. It's been teased for decades and I don't think it's going to happen. At least, as far as I know. I think [director] Dick Donner, who is a brilliantly funny man, likes to torture us all with the prospect. I believe it's his revenge for having been tortured by all of us for 6 months in 1984.

The First Ever Floating Comic-Con sets sail in January and we've got your first look the full schedule!

Goodness gracious me.

When Tarantino retires in the near future he should move into some sort of Aged Care Facility. Do the whole thing properly. Werthers Originals, cardigan, faint but lingering smell of piss - the lot.

Exclusive: Sigourney Weaver Talks Avatar Sequels Development.

'Jurassic World 2' Director on Adding More Animatronics to Sequel: They "Bring Soul and Reality".

QuoteBefore the screening at AMC Lincoln Square, A Monster Calls star Sigourney Weaver commented on Fox's winter 2018 date for an untitled James Cameron film, which is suspected to be the release of an Avatar sequel. "We haven't started it, so I don't know how realistic that date is, but I think it's going to be very exciting," she told THR. "I've read three of the four [sequel's scripts,] and they're even more extraordinary than the first one."

Michael Shannon on 'Frank & Lola' and Guillermo del Toro's 'The Shape of Water'.

QuoteWhat attracted you to The Shape of Water?

SHANNON: I just met with (director) Guillermo del Toro out in L.A., and he told me he'd written the script with me and some other people in mind, that it was his dream project, and that he couldn't think of anything else, except for doing that movie. That was before I'd even read it, but he was very convincing, personally. I respect him, as an artist, so I assumed that it wasn't going to be terrible. And then, I got the script and it was really exciting. It was a very hard shoot. We were all exhausted. But, I think we might have something really interesting.

Guillermo del Toro is so passionate about filmmaking and it's so infectious to hear him talk about his love for it. What was it like to work with him?

SHANNON: It's unfathomable, how he does it. He would be the first to admit that he's not in the greatest shape, physically, but that guy can go and go and go. I think he's really riding on that sense of passion for films, and particularly the film he's making at that particular time. I feel that way about all of the great directors I've worked with. [Martin] Scorsese was like that. He could shoot for 20 hours straight without blinking an eye. I think they're just that passionate about what they're doing.

"Robin Hood: Origins"? Fucks sake! I mean, I could stand a story about his pre-hood'ing days just fine, but that title. Fucking hell!

There's an awful lot of shit out there.

How the screens inside movies build fictional worlds.

Wow, lot of work goes into that kinda thing...

Why George Romero's 'Resident Evil' Film Failed to Launch.

Instead we got Paul W.S. Anderson's crappy, bloodless flick, followed by a load of sequels you couldn't be arsed with.
