Should have done this months ago, Stacey, but it worked enough to get me to log back in after a months. I kind of want to know more about your time at FOX. What you worked on that eventually aired and stuff you thought was great but the suits passed on.

I read today that they guy who wrote Little Miss Sunshine and Toy Story 3 will be writing the script for Star Wars 7. So, depending on how you liked the dialogue and pacing in those movies will determine whether or not you might go into the next movie with hope or trepidation.

I wouldn't mind picking up the Marvel movies on BD before I go to work. Ah hell, parking would be impossible and I too damned lazy to get out at 3am. My only hope is that they'll be some sales online Black Monday.

@Apis said:Thunderball a film so nice they made it twice.My choice too, but isn't Diamonds Are Forever and Golden Eye basically the same movie, too?

They don't make too many giant monster movies these days outside of the occasional Godzilla. I really can't add anymore to Toastburner_B's great list. Them! is one of my all-time favorites. Two others I might suggest that are more in the B-movie range are War of the Gargantuas (1966) and Dinosaurus! (1960).

Yikes, I haven't been on for about a week, but wow I've never seen the spam this bad. It's just short of a "chan" board.

@Doc_Holliday said:.... But this trailer doesn't distinguish itself and make want to see it. It just doesn't look good at all and especially compared to the original.Exactly what I was thinking. There are some scenes in the trailer which practically the exact same scenes from the original but they feel hollow. I know that it's just a trailer and maybe seeing the movie will create more emotional impact, but my ...

The sole reason I pop in from time to time when I have the time is the forum community. A great group of people working hard to keep this site afloat and entertaining. For "real" entertainment news, I visit other sites.

I live in Florida so...Porky's!Actually that was shot in Miami. Closer to where I live, a 1998 movie starring Woody Harrelson call Palmetto was filmed. Also scenes from 1985's Day of the Dead were filmed in the area.

Yeah, they came back on air Saturday morning (Eastern). I had to reprogram them back into my selective channels list. This same type of squabble happened earlier this year with "Superstation" WGN and DirectTV. It blew over in less than a week and things were back to normal. The only one that never returned in the few years I've had DTV is Comcast's 14-to-24 demographically focused, G4TV. It left and ...

Box Offices reports go dark this week
on the General Discussion board.
Word on the street is The Dark Knight Rises will do $160 to $162 million domestically this opening weekend. That's the most for a 2D movie and places it third behind 3D movies, The Avengers and Harry Potter 7.5.

Should You Judge a Film Based on its Creator's Reputation?
on the General Discussion board.
No I think you have to judge each movie on its own merits within the broad spectrum of all known movies. I can get excited by the prospects of seeing a new film from my favorite director, but the movie itself should be appraised free of any assumptions. If a critic reviews Brave and says it does not meet the standards of earlier Pixar movies and rates it a 3 ...

This film is shaping up to a be finiacial disaster
on the The Lone Ranger board.
Disney should get someone to take control of these runaway budgets, but I still don't see this as another John Carter. For one thing, the title character has some name recognition, and then there's Johnny Depp. His last two films may have underperformed, but I don't think expectations were high to begin with. The real money for The Lone Ranger will come from the foreign box office since his name ...
