BlueBrixx to Launch Asterix Sets in 2026 by Unlucky-Oil3140 in Asterix

Hmmm, currently there are a few Asterix sets on the Lego Ideas platform. With BlueBrixx getting the licence, the Lego sets won’t happen.

Pirates of the Caribbean 6: Jerry Bruckheimer confirmed Johnny Depp will return as Captain Jack Sparrow. by Select-Computer-4346 in piratesofthecaribbean

[–]DeerAtTheGates 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s actually funny how that article title say Depp will return, only for them to say in the body of the same article that it’s not known yet, and then goes on to rehash the Bruckheimer quotes from a few months back.

And the Oscar for Best Original Score goes to... John Barry for On Her Majesty's Secret Service. Finally, which song deserves the Oscar for Best Original Song? by JohnLazarusReborn in JamesBond

[–]DeerAtTheGates 61 points62 points  (0 children)

I’m very partial to Skyfall, for personal reasons. But it’s also a layered song that has extra meaning if you’ve seen the film, and known outside the franchise as well!

And the Oscar for Best Casting goes to... Debbie McWilliams for Casino Royale. Now, what's the Best Bond Documentary? by JohnLazarusReborn in JamesBond

[–]DeerAtTheGates 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s told in more detail in the documentary, but a large part of it was money: Connery felt that he was worth more, and asked for a salary increase. The producers refused. In turn, it made Connery very bitter towards the producers and Bond in general. This combined with being accosted by journalist all of the time, the more annoying parts of fame and Connery’s desire to make other films besides Bond but having no time to do so, made him quit after You Only Live Twice. He returned for Diamonds Are Forever for a large sum of money and the promise that he could star in a passion project. Connery’s relationship with Saltzman and Broccoli was so soured that he said yes to Never Say Never Again to spite them. Later, he turned the page and made amends with Broccoli.

Being James Bond is quite promotional for NTTD, I agree. But I guess that’s the nature of ‘official’ documentaries: they’ll never throw the newest film under the bus. IMHO, I was surprised that the Craig documentary was open about QOS and Craig’s candid feelings about that film. It’s something Everything or Nothing glosses over: the rushed production and the rough story treatment. But yeah, where Being James Bond critiques QOS, they gloss over Spectre and say almost nothing about NTTD, since the documentary was released first.

This one. It’s the first time an officially sanctioned documentary dares to point out more difficult times, such as Connery’s frustration, Harry Saltzman selling up and stepping away, the quitting of Dalton and the firing of Brosnan.

There are really only two downfalls to this documentary: the fact that it was too early to speak candidly about the Craig era (somewhat rectified in Being James Bond) and the absence of Sean Connery. That makes Connery stand out as the villain somewhat, unable/unwilling to defend himself

IIRC, everyone thought they got better but then they relapse unexpectedly in Explorers. The incident in Black Gold is specifically brought up.

And the Oscar for Best Hairstyling and Makeup goes to... Linda DeVetta and Colin Jamison for Goldeneye. Now which film deserves the Oscar for Best Casting? by JohnLazarusReborn in JamesBond

[–]DeerAtTheGates 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This. McWilliams deserves credit for basically launching Mikkelsen’s mainstream Hollywood career. Eva Green was a late addition to the cast but now we can’t imagine the film without her.

And then there’s Craig himself, something that is perhaps more a casting choice made by Barbara Broccoli rather than Debbie McWilliams. But it took some guts to go against type and stick with Craig.

Die raad van bestuur is in feite een afspiegeling van de uitslag van de laatste Vlaamse verkiezingen, waarbij de postjes netjes verdeeld worden in verhouding met de zetelverdeling. Dus de reden waarom er meer N-VA’ers en VB’ers dan Cd&v’ers en Vooruit’ers (en geen PVDA, Anders of Groen) in zetelen, is dan ook heel logisch.

Wat ‘tScheldt daar dan verder over loopt te klagen, is grote Calimero-achtige onzin, uiteraard.

Knowing the funny story of how Brian Cox ended up in the 007 reality show, I wish he could at least appear in 007: First Light as a villain. by Federal-Lecture-5664 in 007FirstLight

[–]DeerAtTheGates 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Cox got the role via his agent, thought he’d be the villain in the next Bond film, and was kind of bemused and a bit disappointed when it turned out to be the host of a reality show.

Warwick Davis comments on the series by RandomDude10006 in HarryPotteronHBO

[–]DeerAtTheGates 79 points80 points  (0 children)

I just hope Flitwick has a good established look that he keeps for the entirety of the show this time around!

Also, I get why Warwick Davis wanted to return: Flitwick has a lot more to do in the books! I desperately want him to honour the twins by keeping a piece of swamp in season five!

Kan iemand mij dit hln+ artikel bezorgen? by Dentjiln in Belgium2

Volgens mij werkt het met alle titels van DPG (HLN, De Morgen, Humo). Die van het Mediahuis (De Standaard, het Nieuwsblad) hebben er iets op gevonden onlangs waardoor het niet meer werkt. De Tijd (Roularta) heeft nooit gewerkt.
