update Fast Furious 7 is on hold till the new year as the studio decides what to do http://www.deadline.com/2013/12/univ...alker-tragedy/

We have a new Wonder Woman for Batman vrs Superman

Gal Gadot To Play Wonder Woman In 'Batman Vs. Superman' Movie

Quote:

BREAKING: Warner Bros and Zack Snyder have found their Wonder Woman. They’ve cast Israeli-born actress Gal Gadot in the iconic role and she will be part of Batman Vs. Superman, the film that will see Henry Cavill square off with Ben Affleck. Gadot has been in three Fast & Furious films, as well as Knight And Day and Date Night. Given that Warner Bros has bolstered its Batman-Superman-logo__130823020120starpower with Affleck and has Cavill returning from the summer hit Man Of Steel, it makes sense to groom new stars in the supporting roles, the way that Marvel has done. All this is clearly gearing toward the long-awaited Justice League film, all based on the DC Comics characters.

Said Snyder: “Wonder Woman is arguably one of the most powerful female characters of all time and a fan favorite in the DC Universe. Not only is Gal an amazing actress, but she also has that magical quality that makes her perfect for the role. We look forward to audiences discovering Gal in the first feature film incarnation of this beloved character.”

We just heard yesterday that Fox has set a May 2016 date for X-MEN: APOCALYPSE. We all presumed that the film would follow the AGE OF APOCALYPSE comic run from the 90’s.

Obviously there would be major changes to fit it into the continuity of the new timeline established by the films but if a new report from First Showing is true, it might have very little in common with the comic storyline.

First Showing has talked to an insider and a second source and has revealed that following DAYS OF FUTURE PAST the post-credit scene will feature Michael Fassbender’s Magneto discovering something falling from the sky ...

Ill leave the rest out being it would spoil post X Men Days Of Future Past

We lost one of ther great actors of all time Peter O 'tool dead at age of 83

credit CNN.com

Quote:

(CNN) -- Actor Peter O'Toole died peacefully Saturday in a hospital, his agent Steve Kenis said Sunday. He was 81.
O'Toole's first major film role in the title role of T.E. Lawrence in "Lawrence of Arabia" in 1962 was "absolute genius," British film critic Richard Fitzwilliams told CNN. It earned him the first of eight Academy Award nominations and propelled him to world stardom.
"Ireland, and the world, has lost one of the giants of film and theatre," Irish President Michael D. Higgins said in a statement.
Born in Ireland and raised in England, O'Toole's acting career began on stage in England as a teenager, moving later to television roles in the 1950s and then the big screen.
"His family are very appreciative and completely overwhelmed by the outpouring of real love and affection being expressed towards him, and to us, during this unhappy time," daughter Kate O'Toole said in an written statement. "Thank you all, from the bottom of our hearts."

O'Toole had "been ill for some time," his daughter said.
"In due course there will be a memorial filled with song and good cheer, as he would have wished," she wrote. "We will be happy to speak to you all then but in the meantime if you could give Peter O'Toole the respect he deserves and allow us to grieve privately we'd appreciate it."
"On stage and screen, if their function is to reflect the human condition, then O'Toole did it absolutely brilliantly with his highs and lows and his remarkable ability to convey emotion," Fitzwilliams said. "He was so expressive, and his great triumph was undoubtedly 'Lawrence of Arabia.'"
O'Toole's portrayal of Lawrence was followed in 1964 by the role of King Henry II in "Becket," opposite Richard Burton as Thomas Becket. Both men were nominated for the best actor Oscar for the film, but both lost.
The pattern of Oscar nominations, but no statuettes, for O'Toole is unmatched. "Always the bridesmaid, never the bride," he once said.
O'Toole was nominated for the best actor Oscar again for playing Henry II opposite Katharine Hepburn in the 1968 film "The Lion in Winter."

His fourth Oscar nomination came in 1969 for the role of a shy English school teacher in "Goodbye, Mr. Chips."

Although his portrayal of the 14th Earl of Gurney in the 1972 movie "The Ruling Class" was nominated for best actor, Fitzwilliams cited it as an example of O'Toole's overacting.

"He was an actor, admittedly, of uneven merit, but what you had was this phenomenal life force, almost a wayward genius," Fitzwilliams said.
O'Toole's battle with an alcohol addiction hampered his career in the 1970s, but he staged a comeback with his 1980 leading role in "The Stunt Man." It brought him a sixth best actor nomination from the Academy.
He mocked his own image as an over-the-hill, alcoholic matinee idol in "My Favorite Year" (1982). He was again nominated for best actor but did not win.
O'Toole was presented an honorary Oscar by Meryl Streep during the 2003 Academy Awards. The engraving on the gold statuette reads: "Whose remarkable talents have provided cinema history with some of its most memorable characters."
But he was not done. He was also nominated for the best actor Oscar for his role as an aging, out-of-work actor obsessed with a young woman in the 2006 film "Venus."
He acknowledged in 2012 that his acting career had ended, bidding a "profoundly grateful farewell" to the industry.

Ana paquin True blood and to the non True Blood fans rogue in the X men movies , had her only scene cut during the editing of the film

http://insidemovies.ew.com/2013/12/2...e-anna-paquin/

Quote:

There will be one less mutant in this summer’s highly anticipated X-Men: Days of Future Past, which combines the casts of the original X-Men trilogy with those of 2011′s First Class. Director Bryan Singer (The Usual Suspects) has revealed to EW exclusively that a rescue sequence — shot early in the film’s production and featuring Magneto (Ian McKellen), Professor X (Patrick Stewart), Rogue (Anna Paquin), and Iceman (Shawn Ashmore) — has been cut from the final film. Sadly, this means that Rogue’s screen time has been significantly chopped down as well.
summer's comic book epic -- EXCLUSIVE PHOTOS 'X-Men: Apocalypse' will open in 2016
“Through the editing process, the sequence became extraneous,” explains Singer. “It’s a really good sequence and it will probably end up on the DVD so people can see it. But like many things in the editing process, it was an embarrassment of riches and it was just one of the things that had to go. Unfortunately, it was the one and only sequence Anna Paquin was in, the Rogue character was in. Even though she’s in the materials and part of the process of making the film, she won’t appear in it.”

The Survivor · 12-21-2013, 03:39 PM

RIP Peter O'Toole. I've seen his later films and I will eventually get around to seeing Lawrence of Arabia.

That sucks about Anna Paquin. I like X-Men movies but I really feel the movie doesn't focus or allow for enough time for certain characters because the focus being sorely on one, two or three characters. (Namely Wolverine . Which I expect with this one along with possibly Mystique given Jennifer's current popularity.)

ROCKSTAR · 12-21-2013, 06:33 PM

The last X-Men movie I liked was X2 (including Wolverine). I was looking forward to Rogue and now this.
