After TDKR  not interested 

 

I'm at a loss for words.

Marion Coltiard is a great actress and to judge her by a bad death scene is baffling. 

[BK007]

lordmandeep doesn't know any other films beyond the blockbusters.

 

Only $100m films are released each year, and of those, he sees 5 and pirates the rest.

What exactly is odd about it?  He's a director.  Pitt is an actor.  These two professions tend to work together on film.  In fact, I could be wrong here, but I'd be willing to bet that every fictional film ever made in history has had an actor and a director.

 

Maybe odd isn't the right word, more like interesting.

[baumer]

That makes more sense to me.....

[Fancyarcher]

Apparently the release date has been pushed to 2017, because Cotillard is shooting another film first, instead.

 

Hmm!! I can wait!

Jared Harris joins the cast. Also looks like the film will meet the 2016 deadline, after all.

Apparently the title is supposed to be Five Seconds of Silence. Don't know if that's a working title or not.

I wonder how many people will mistakenly call this Five Seconds of Summer if they go with that title.

Mostly people outside of NA, I would imagine.

I wanted them to stick with the original title (Five Seconds of Silence) just to hear all mix-ups with that boy band lol.

Saw some footage from new Zemeckis movie - a WWII drama called Allied starring Brad Pitt. Looks pretty damn good, I'm definitely intrigued.

Sneak peek at new Robert Zemeckis film ALLIED. WW2 story with Brad Pitt. Taut, intense; feels like a welcome throwback from Zemeckis. No CG.

Review of the script, warning there are spoilers, but Scriptshadows raves the script, and calls it fantastic.
