General Movie (Film for snobs) News Thread

Mandy looks like a cross between Mad Max 3, Green Room and The Wicker Man remake.  Normally, I worry when someone describes themselves as a "Visionary Director" but that trailer does look good.  The colour grader might want to get his eyes checked though, looks like a lost reel from Hardware!

I personally have no problems with Jack Whitehall blacking up or whatever.  It's acting - gay men have played straight parts for years, and vice versa.  Of course, if he plays it like Larry Grayson that's a different matter.

Daniel Craig has way too much pull in this series now. It's like he fucking owns Bond or something. I bet what's happened is Boyle wanted to put some jokes in it and he's shit himself and instead wants someone to trot out another Bourne clone.

I like him as an actor and a couple of his Bonds have been good films. But for the sake of the 007 name and series they need to move away from him. Preferably to Dan Stevens.

I never even considered Dan Stevens as James Bond, but that's a terrific shout. Good looking fucker, could handle the physical stuff well and also has that glint in his eye that Bond needs. I want to see it now.

I've loved Casino Royale, Skyfall and Spectre, but I feel Craig is finished as Bond now. The whinging during the Spectre publicity tour did my head in.

Bone Tomahawk is on Film4 tonight at 11:20 and needless to say you should all watch it.

Worth noting that its writer and director, S. Craig Zahler, is currently getting a lot of attention for his script for.... Puppet Master: The Littlest Reich.

That's one weird career move!

For some reason I think Luke Evans would make a good Bond.  He's a physical presence and has that "glint".

Bone Tomahawk is cracking, physically nauseating at the end as well.
