Clinton Foundation to Keep Harvey Weinstein’s $250,000 Donation :shock: :cuss: Blowfeld, does your stabbing anger now apply to this piece of filth too? http://www.aim.org/wp-content/uploads/2013/01/Hillary-Clinton.jpg I am not as enraged with an old lady as all of that. Poor dear had trouble keepin...

The Weinstein investigation has moved to this side of the Atlantic. One of my adolescent crushes, the British actress Lysette Anthony, has alleged that he raped her. I met her briefly once, at the stage door of a play I saw her in at the Bristol Old Vic, so that brings it somewhat closer to home. T...

Does that impeachment count for anything since the senate let him go so the feminist Bond producers could include inappropriate Bond jokes in TWINE? Was that the reason? Wow, I never realised the Bond films were that influential ;) Also the reason CNN started doing real reporting and American Spy A...

Clinton was impeached, Weinstein is under police investigation. When will Trump suffer any consequences for his pussy-grabbing exploits? Does that impeachment count for anything since the senate let him go so the feminist Bond producers could include inappropriate Bond jokes in TWINE? Clinton never...

I'm sure the 300+ movies that Weinstein produced created a lot of jobs too. And Bill Clinton presided over an economic boom. Does that excuse their predatory behaviour too? If not, why not? I had a destain for Harvey Weinstein since 2007 when he threatened Maury Chaykin (Nero Wolfe 2000-2002) of hi...

My guess for the next Bond movie plot: BloodBrothers (or Never Dye Again Tomorrow: This Time It's Personal!) Jimmy Bond retired for the fifth time in as many movies is living fat off the land, his job is Trolley Sheppard at the local Tesco. A little winded as he collects a wandering trolley threaten...

Just got a new iPad(my laptop which is more than 5 years old) was too expensive to fix.) My iPad Air died a few weeks ago, suppose it was fairly old since it was the model before the fingerprint scanner was part of the kit. One evening as it was beside me on the arm of the chair there was an audibl...

I Have not read Steven King novels in a very long time. Personally I thought his short stories were his better efforts, however I usually enjoy voluminous tomes, something to look forward to at the end of the day. Go through withdrawal when I hit the end of a good series.

While, in many ways that Craig killed the franchise for some on this board his impact on the franchise is undeniable. We had Die Another Day love Brosnan or hate him it was a over the top fiasco in a time where The Bourne Identity was showing that a dark gritty spy movie could work. Craig came in w...

I was thinking the exact same thing! There is sort of a best and worst case with all the actors when talking about their films. With Connery he's ether the benchmark all others are compared to, or a sexiest fiend worthy of being burned at the stake, depending on what rag your reading. Lazenby is to...

Tim Robey/independent.ie--August 5 2017------Comment: Why Daniel Craig should not play Bond again---The ‘novelty’ value of appointing a new face to the iconic role of James Bond is the biggest threat to Daniel Craig’s tenureship, writes Tim Robey. If he is kept on though, don’t viewers deserve to s...

Raymond Benson never spoke to the Mirror. On his Facebook page, the author released this statement: "Some of you may have seen an article published by U.K.'s The Mirror yesterday that claims that the next Bond movie will be based on my novel Never Dream of Dying. I know nothing of this, but as I ha...

Craig's return is a done deal, according to two people briefed on the matter, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to avoid conflicts with Eon and MGM. :hair: :hair: :hair: :hair: :hair: :hair: :hair: :hair: :hair: :hair: :hair: :hair: :hair: :hair: :hair: :hair: :hair: :hair: :hair: :hair: :hai...

We'll see . I expect him to return until he's replaced I don't get why they wouldn't say he was coming back if it was a done deal. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro That was a peculiar aspect of today's announcement. That is noteworthy however I expect they will rehire Daniel because it is the...

Deborah Watling, who played the companion to the second Doctor on BBC’s long-running Doctor Who, has died after a brief battle with cancer, the BBC reports. She was 69. According to The Telegraph, Watling was diagnosed with lung cancer six weeks earlier. http://img-s-msn-com.akamaized.net/tenant/am...

I've seen the trailer and I was vaguely aware of the French comic it is based on. It's the new SF film from Luc Besson. The Fifth Element was a bit of a curate's egg, IMO, and I'm sure that this will be no different. I know the series as Valerian and Laureline. It was a very cool Doctor Who meets M...

New opinion poll on the casting (scroll down to item 3): https://yougov.co.uk/opi/surveys/results#/survey/54be73d0-6ad7-11e7-8cde-a6b53c1dce63/question/a523f700-6ad7-11e7-b4bb-5a4b9f5f534f/age Bear in mind that YouGov is somewhat controversial, as many other pollsters have pointed out flaws in thei...

True. It was meant to be reassuring except for other word was gender related. It plays well with activist who were not already Doctor Who fans, the BBC wanted a victory lap to show how open minded they are now. The BBC decided to be smug and it may come back to bite them. That wasn't how I saw it, ...

I am a fan of Jodie. I am not a fan of heads of the BBC who will ruin a good thing when they find it politically convenient. RE: the official statement: Why is it when I ask people to not to be scared by my gender the police show up? The Canon for Doctor Who has been fungible, I am not fundamentally...
