and then some

Great news on the horizon for the infamous ‘Wild Bill’ Paxton with talk he’s in negotiations to join both Tom Cruise and Em Blunt in the awesome plot sounding ALL YOU NEED IS KILL helmed by Doug Liman. 

Apart from the fact i was already behind this one a 100% due to it being a sci fi flick with a nice intelligent story, Cruise doing his space soldier thing, and the always perfect Blunt as a fellow recruit, I’m now even more pumped due to ‘Hudson’s involvement.

I dig on Doug Liman - thanks to GO and BOURNE - but he has recently delivered some fucking turkeys…so please, for the ones out there who give a shit - don’t screw this up man…

lookin good…lookin good. please don’t suck.

To say I’m deeply saddened by Tony Scott’s passing is one hell of an understatement. The guy that delivered so much enjoyment to me through his unbelievable cannon of work over the years - to know he took his own life…just sucks in a big fucking way.

The amount of images I have engrained in my mind thanks to his crazy ass kinetic directing style are a permanent pleasure to look back on. In the nineties he was the action maestro for me, no question - instrumental in me discovering more and more the joys of cinema. I mean he gave us Costner in REVENGE, Bruce in BOY SCOUT and Walken and Hopper in TRUE ROMANCE for fucks sake…

Then came the Denzel years, a perfect collaboration of movie star and movie maker, delivering such greatness as MAN ON FIRE, DEJA VU and UNSTOPPABLE.

With a Tony Scott flick, you always knew what you were gonna get - no shortage of gunfights, car chases, profanities, action set pieces, cool motherfuckers looking badass and helicopters, lots of helicopters - and for that, we thank him.

Not only a master filmmaker, but an inspirational, visionary storyteller that had me forever in his corner digging that faded red cap - it’s fucking tragic you checked out so soon.

So long buddy, and thanks for all the good times…

First official shot of the ever watchable Damon in ELYSIUM. Looks cool with the whole shaven head thing. Real interested in this one. Neill Blomkamp has proved he can do intelligent sci-fi, so as long as he throws in some more action and seamless use of CG I’m totally there.

Plus when does Jodie Foster ever disappoint?

Colour me expectant…
