Upcoming Movies

Goldeneye was excellent, and Casino Royale was very good in fairness.

Goldeneye was deadly, to be fully fair to it.

I’ve only seen Casino Royale and it was an hour too long. Haven’t seen any of the rest of them.

Don’t you watch the movies. He’s an mimetic polyalloy. :rolleyes:

Saw Argo last night, pretty decent film and Ben Affleck seems to be a damn good director/producer as I really enjoyed Gone Baby Gone and The Town as well.

The town is a great show.

Obvious choice, but strange enough given his role in rebooting Star Wars. Will be interesting to see where he goes with it. Star Trek was a great success, very enjoyable popcorn film, far outstripping any of the previous ones.

Enough with the rumours! As if re-igniting the Star Trek franchise wasn’t enough, JJ Abrams has now landed the biggest job in genre cinema of the moment – he’ll apparently direct Star Wars: Episode VII for Disney and Lucasfilm.

Despite playing coy back in November when asked directly by Hollywood Life about the gig (“I am looking forward more than anyone to the next iterations of Star Wars, but I believe I will be going as a paying moviegoer!” is what he said) and telling our own Mark Dinning he couldn’t possibly do it, Abrams is now making a deal to sit in the captain’s chair for the film, according to The Wrap’s sources.

Though Ben Affleck had apparently been in the running, Abrams’ sci-fi credentials made him the natural choice for the gig.

Star Wars: Episode VII will boast a script from Little Miss Sunshine and Toy Story 3 writer Michael Arndt, a lifelong Wars fan who lectures about the script for the 1977 original as a model of great storytelling.

So what will happen in the film itself? What a question to ask! With Abrams now at the helm, things will be wrapped in more layers of secrecy than before.

And assuming this pans out to be 100% true – as more and more sites are confirming – he’ll have to make the jump to light speed quickly as Star Wars is currently positioned for release in 2015.

This is what is normally referred to as ‘living the dream’.

Just saw an ad for “Parker”, starring Jason Statham and Jennifer Lopez.

Looks superb.

Seems very similar to ‘Payback’ with Gibson…

Pretty sure I saw that and pretty sure I very much enjoyed it.

Actually looks half decent.

Danny Boyle has confirmed that he will be directing a sequel to his modern classic Trainspotting.

The filmmaker - who oversaw the critically acclaimed opening ceremony at the London 2012 Olympics last summer - has revealed that he will be starting work on a cinema adaptation of Irvine Welsh’s follow-up novel Porno in 2016.

And the 56-year-old has also declared that he would like to see the original cast - which included Ewan McGregor, Jonny Lee Miller, Robert Carlyle and Ewen Bremner - reprise their roles in the sequel.

He told The Playlist: "This has been a long time coming. There’s always been this long-term plan for Trainspotting 2, if John can produce a decent enough script, I don’t think there will be any barriers to Ewan or any of the cast coming back.

“I think they’ll wanna know that the parts are good so they don’t feel like they are letting anyone down.”

The script is being handled by John Hodge, who wrote the screenplay for Trainspotting - along with those for Boyle’s other movies Shallow Grave, A Life Less Ordinary and Trance.
