This season of Sunny is officially mediocre

Mac isn't supposed to be aware that he's gay
Forgot to preface this with "I've got news, I've got terrible news."

Over the years I've read about Elvis and Nixon meeting, Nixon giving Elvis a special sheriffs badge, the famous photo etc, but this looks to good not to go an watch and ponder - what if - even though it looks like a great exaggeration of the real story.

 
Just saw Tina Fay promoting Whisky Tango Foxtrot on Jimmy Fallon's Tonight Show. Looks like a bit of a laugh and Margot Robbie looks pretty good as usual even in a war zone. Watch at 0:20 for a great line she gets to deliver and Fay's reaction.

I guess I have learned a new meaning for WTF.

 
Finally had a chance to see the new Ghostbusters trailer and I have to say that I went in wanting to hate it but actually thought it was ok.

Yes, but regardless of all men or all women, what is the ****ing point?
 
edgie you're the sort who will never see women or minority leads as anything but token or a result of agenda driving.

Pretty sure I used an example of a woman led film that I love and that I mentioned is in no way token or agenda driven. I also defended the casting in Force Awakens from those who thought it was token. I don't even thinking Ghostbusters is token, I was arguing that the way things are presented and marketed draws attention to it, and that's where a lot of backlash come from it.

Always wanted to do a wacky style TV series about Elvis's adventures as a "Secret agent at large", possibly titled "The secret adventures of Elvis: Secret agent at large", or whatever title he was given. Do it all ridiculous and campy Danger 5 meets Ford Fairlane style. Might just send the idea to Dario Russo and let them handle it if they want.

Maybe do something with drones. Just saw a story on BBC Impact about the New York City Drone Film Festival and figured you'd appreciate it. The story spoke to the creator of the festival and a couple of entrants, but they did talk over the following footage.

Haha, I don't own a drone or a smart device capable of operating one. Whatever I film I try and give an old fashioned style presentation in line with Australian cinema of the 70s and B-grade American of the 80s, with a little bit of John Carpenter thrown in.

However, I do think I see great potential in that, mostly the part where the chick comes out of the shower to see a drone there. That's like, Psycho 2016. There's a move there waiting to happen. They made a film about a killer ****ing tyre after all that even got a gig at Cannes.

A killer pervert drone seems much more plausible.

REMOVED FOR SPOILER MAYBE

Actually what House of Cards does well is show how he becomes more monstrous. Like even ep 1 has him bossing Meecham around in a way he never would have done three seasons ago.

Why no calls for a Buck Rogers in the 25th Century remake?


beedleleedleleedle eat lead sucker.
That'd possibly work because the time it was made to now the advances in CGI would make it able to support the story more. Of course they'd still need decent stories / actors.

Ghostbusters I classify like Total Recall, Robocop and Predator. There was no underlying effects reason that could justify being able to tell the story in a way that wasn't done before. Ghostbusters, yes there's ghosts and special effects, but it's a massive secondary item to the 3 main characters bouncing off each other. That chemistry is what made it, not the story of catching ghosts. Something that should have precluded it ever being remade, now matter if the new cast was all male, all female, both, black, white, asian or every possible combination there of.
