Skyfall Reviews, Interviews & More
As the Twilight franchise comes to an end the final movie, Breaking Dawn - Part 2, made a crap-ton of money this weekend, but not enough to set any records (it isn't even the highest opening weekend for a Twilight film). Oh well, the makers are going to have to settle for a crap-ton of money.
The final Twilight film is upon us. At least, maybe. The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn - Part 2 is the last of the adaptations of the exceptionally popular franchise, but that doesn't mean a spin off or a reboot might not be on its way in the near future. As we've seen with Star Wars, if there's money to be made, then studios...
Bond is back so hard you guys. Skyfall ended up making $90 Million in America over the last couple days, which puts it on track to make more unadjusted money than any previous Bond movie. Quantum of Solace, the current record-holder, topped out at $168, and that sounds pretty doable. In fact, it may be close to that next weekend....
When one person comes out and claims that Skyfall is the best Bond film to ever be released, you can't help but raise an eyebrow. But when the reviews began to pour in, maybe there's something to it. For the spy's fiftieth anniversary instead of a retirement party, Bond has made a smashing return and fans couldn't be happier. So what is everyone saying about it? Here's...
So it's a James Bond weekend at the box office. Though Steven Spielberg's Lincoln also opens in limited release this Friday, the only picture going wide is Skyfall, which is already on Imax screens, and the picture has already made $321 Million internationally. It's doesn't need America to be a success, but it's going to be big stateside as...
Barbara Broccoli was born into Bond as her father was “Cubby” Broccoli, also known as the man who brought 007 to the big screen. Working with her on the franchise as early as 1979 was Michael G. Wilson, who went on to write a number of the Bond film before settling into his role as one of the series’ producers. The two sat down to talk about their latest, and possibly best Bond endeavor,...
For the press conference, for Sam Mendes, Daniel Craig, and producers Barbara Broccoli and Michael G. Wilson were on a victory lap after the huge opening the film has enjoyed internationally. You can tell when talent is feeling relaxed about their films, and it’s easy to see why with Skyfall. It’s a winner. Here’s our interview with the group.
While the American box office didn’t exactly set any records over the weekend—unless you count it as a new low (high?) in general audiences apathy towards forward-thinking flicks, seeing as how Cloud Atlas heavily crashed and burned—overseas, it was a different story. In the European market, there was one name above all: Bond, James Bond (ugh, forgive me for doing that, it...
While the pretty glowing reviews are still coming in—be sure to read our take—on Skyfall, the 23rd EON Productions James Bond film, and despite the fact that the film won’t even see a U.S. release until November 9, a new Bond film is already being written.
Right now a couple of popular British characters may be going through a transitional period within the next couple of years. There's been chatter of the 12th Doctor in Doctor Who being played by a woman, and the James Bond franchise may face the same treatment. No, they're not going to change James Bond into a woman (that'd be just plain weird) but Idris Elba may be...
Skyfall offers the triumphant return of James Bond for his fiftieth anniversary. But Daniel Craig's Bond gets no pensioner's watch for his service, instead he gets one of the best entries in the franchise. Offering one of the greatest casts and the best cinematography in the franchise's long history, Skyfall is the event blockbuster you...
Skyfall opens on November 9 in America (it's hitting England this weekend), and for Americans it seems to be getting The Avengers treatment, which is an enormous amount of pre-release hype and pre-release clips from the film. The latest offers Daniel Craig's Bond talking with his new quatermaster, aka Q (Ben Whishaw), for the first time.
Bradley Cooper and Jennifer Lawrence are creating quite a lot of buzz with their upcoming movie Silver Linings Playbook. Peter Travers even said that he predicts Lawrence will win the Oscar for her performance. The movie looks like a quirky love story between two dysfunctional characters, and the new trailer explores their personalities a bit more. Also, Adele debuted...
One of the highlights—or biggest eyeroll moments, depending on how you feel about Bond films—of the Skyfall trailer takes places when the back of a train is ripped off and James Bond leaps inside, lands, and coolly adjusts his cufflinks because, well, he’s James Bond and this is all in a day’s work and, besides, it’s his job to look cool. Well, today, in honor of the 50th...
For those waiting impatiently for the next adventure of James Bond, there's some good news. Skyfall, which hits theaters in America November 9, will be coming to Imax screens a day earlier. So you can thrill to Daniel Craig's latest adventure on a much bigger screen before everyone else on November 8 - or at least before most other Americans.
While the domestic trailer for Skyfall, the 23rd James Bond film and the third to star Daniel Craig, featured a more well-rounded look at the film’s plot and the relationship between Bond (Craig) and M (Judy Dench), the newest international trailer gives us more of a glimpse of Javier Bardem’s bizarrely coiffed new villain, Raoul Silva. Once again, Javier Bardem...
While the buzz continues to build around Skyfall, the 23rd James Bond film and the third to star Daniel Craig, more and more tidbits about the film are breaking loose and falling our way. Today, we have both the new domestic poster for the film, as well as information about the film’s theme song.
It’s been awhile since we’ve seen a great Bond film—2006’s Casino Royale was great fun, but 2008’s Quantum of Solace was hastily-edited silliness—and it looks like this year’s Skyfall may fit the bill for Bond excellence. With Daniel Craig returning as 007, Javier Bardem showing up as an oddly-coifed Big Bad, and...
Yesterday, we showed you the Olympic teaser for the 23rd James Bond flick, Skyfall, and now and now we have the full international trailer. And despite the fact that it appears to have the exact same plot as the first Mission: Impossible film—a secret government agency loses the list of names of all current secret agents in the field—the Sam...
Just in case you are one of the six people on planet Earth who has yet to see The Dark Knight Rises, and its attached trailer for Skyfall, well, you’re in luck—the Olympic opening ceremony has bestowed upon us a new TV spot with plenty of footage from the new James Bond trailer.
