WEDNESDAY, FEBRUARY 14

SASQUATCH SUNSET---trailer released for the comedy movie starring Riley Keough and Jesse Eisenberg.

THE WALKING DEAD: THE ONES WHO LIVE---new trailer released for the spinoff series.

THE FANTASTIC FOUR---Marvel Studios announced the cast for the reboot movie: Pedro Pascal (Mr. Fantastic), Vanessa Kirby (Invisible Woman), Joseph Quinn (Human Torch) and Ebon Moss-Bachrach (Thing).





DINOSAURS---Ewan McGregor and Ann Hathaway will star in an untitled adventure movie set in the 1980s in which a family encounters dinosaurs. The writer is David Robert Mitchell (IT FOLLOWS). JJ Abrams is a co-producer.





GODZILLA MINUS ONE---director Takashi Yamazaki posted that he met Steven Spielberg and gave a Godzilla figure to Spielberg, “I’ve met GOD. What am I going to do with all this? I’m seriously crying. And Spielberg saw GMO 3 times. He told me he liked the characters in the film. I gave him a Godzilla figure, and he was so happy when he took it..”
Yamazaki also commented on a sequel to MINUS ONE, “I would certainly like to see what the sequel would look like. I know that Shikishima’s war seems over, and we’ve reached this state of peace and calm – but perhaps [it’s the] calm before the storm, and the characters have not yet been forgiven for what has been imposed upon them.”
He added, “I don’t know that anyone has pulled off a more serious tone of kaiju-versus-kaiju with human drama, and that challenge is something that I’d like to explore...When you have movies that feature [kaiju battles], I think it's very easy to put the spotlight and the camera on this massive spectacle, and it detaches itself from the human drama component...to make sure that the human drama and whatever's happening between [the] kaiju both have meaning, and both are able to affect one another in terms of plot development.”





MICHAEL---photo released of Jaafar Jackson starring as his uncle, Michael Jackson, in the biomovie.





ONLY MURDERS IN THE BUILDING---Disney Television Group head Craig Erwich said Season 4 will have a new setting, “Well, I’m very excited to see Steve, Martin and Selena take a little break from the apartment building and come to Los Angeles. So in the same way that John Hoffman used the canvas of Broadway to tell what I think was one of the most unique seasons you’ve ever seen, the same unique Only Murders take will be applied to Los Angeles, which I’m really excited about.”

MONARCH: LEGACY OF MONSTERS---co-star Anna Sawai commented on a possible Season 2, "I talk to Kiersey [Clemons] and Ren [Watabe] all the time, and we still don't know! I'm asking the same question to the producers and the showrunner, Chris Black, and so I would like to know if you find out."

TRIVIA---Valentine's Day movie trivia.
The 1980 cult classic romantic fantasy movie SOMEWHERE IN TIME was written by Richard Matheson and starred Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour in which a successful playwright falls in love with a woman he sees in a photo and travels back in time to meet her. Forty-two years after the movie was filmed, Seymour revealed she and Reeve fell in love during filming, “Well, here comes the story that I’m officially telling you now, because Chris and I, when we made the film, we literally fell madly in love. When you see this film, you will see the real thing. But we didn’t let anyone know. So a few of the people who worked on the show kind of sussed it out, but we were as subtle as we could be about it...We were madly in love and life was wonderful. We were both single; it was a fantastic, amazing experience.”
Seymour said their romance ironically ended as they were about to film the key scene where their characters, Richard Collier and Elise McKenna, lose each other, “And then one day I came into work [to film] one of the biggest scenes in the movie… Just before that, Chris had had an earlier call and I came in about half an hour later, and they said, ‘Chris needs to talk to you about something.’ I thought, ‘That’s really odd, we’ve had a long time to talk about things, so what could it be?'”
Seymour said, “It was that he was about to have a baby, and that his ex-girlfriend hadn’t told him, and that she’d just announced it to the world."
She said while filming the scene, she had “tears coming halfway up my eyeballs...And I just kept saying, ‘You can’t cry, you can’t cry, you can’t cry, you’re happy. Elise is really, really happy right now."'
She added, “The good part of the story is that Chris went on to have these two beautiful children, and we met one another on many occasions. We remained really, really close friends, literally until the day he died. I have to believe that I will one day see him somewhere in time.”

RE: Godzilla Minus One

As much as I liked the film and the director It was a self contained story. I really don't see where you can go from here. I know they added little Easter Eggs at the end of the film but they should just let it be. Or they're going to retreat old ground or make something pale in compassion.

Love, other than "love" for film music, is not a topic often discussed on this forum, is it?

I've never seen that film. Does it have any fans here, other than for its score?

I loved the film when it came out. It’s pretty much a Life Time movie. But I was a romantic fool back then. Nowadays I’m jaded as hell so I don’t know if it would still resonate with me today. The score was half the movie though.

I also like the film. Decent cast. Looks good. Decent music. It was a 'little film' I wasn't expecting much of.

If you can get passed “wishing yourself back in time” then you can buy into the rest of the movie.

It's a lovely film.
Perfect in every way (and everybody LOVES a tragic ending).
Tech credits are top notch and the casting is perfect.
It's got a lovely nostalgic feel and of course, the John Barry music is spot-on (even if he is outshone by Rachmaninov).
Credit also to French director Jeannot Swarc, who pulled it all together (and directed the underrated JAWS 2, which, while a shadow compared to the original film, is still much better than anyone could have expected and compared to anything JAWS since).

Anything less than 1.21 gigawatts doesn't do it for me.
