Not Saxon???
Now that his last 7-8 movies have flopped/been forgotten/become laughingstocks, he's attempting the tried-and-true "let's go back to basics and remind people of what made me a living legend in the first place!"
Thanks for posting this. I've really enjoyed reading your insights over the years, and this one really says it all (without giving too much away)!
So he was only 15-16 when he made Sixteen Candles and Breakfast Club? I'm stunned!
Authors/screenwriters do not use the word wyvern to avoid having to use exposition to explain what it is. It's far easier in literature to "exposit" on the differences, but filmed productions are always pressed for time, and will always prefer to use a far more common word/term that the audience can easily identify with. "Wyvern" does not appear in most dictionaries, and most people coming across the term will be unsure about its proper usage and pronunciation.
I'm not entirely sure, but it's entirely possible that even Rowling was unfamiliar with the term when she originally conceived the Harry Potter series.
Why isn't there a separate board for palindromes?
Age 76, not 86, in 2024.
"...serious eye candy..."???
Alison Doody, perhaps, but certainly NOT howling Kate Capshaw!
The best thing about Dial of Destiny is Spielberg's absence, particularly after the garbage that was in Crystal Skull. Consider his filmography over the last 25 years: can't it be said success went to his head and now he thinks he can get away with anything, simply because his name is on it?
I am in no way saying Dial of Destiny is an "all-time great", but I did enjoy the different directions they went and the chances they took. Yes, there are moments of playing it safe and fan service, but overall I fully consider it a worthy send-off for the series.
I would take Dial of Destiny over Temple of Doom (and howling Kate Capshaw) EVERY time!
They were making up for giving it to American Beauty the year before.
Dunkirk blew everything else away.
I loved his score for Epic (2013)!
TOS is far from perfect, but I could never take TNG even remotely seriously with characters like Wesley, Troi, and Riker.
There sure are a lot of account deletions on this thread.
Could Kowalski be responsible???
My early-information sources were obviously wrong, as they also were about the voice actors for the 4 new emotions. This is what I get for trying to pass on the information as soon as possible.
It's like 1992 all over again! Remember Ross Perot taking votes away from Bush Sr so Bill Clinton could win with less than 50% of the vote?
She was fabulous in In My Dreams (2014)!
PAL-PA-BLE (adj): easily perceived by the senses; perceptible, obvious, plain.
Laurence Fishburne is the lead?
Where can I see this?
Does the City of Baltimore really send out crews at 1:30 am (local time) to fix pot holes?
