Re: Star Wars- So by making a big deal out of nothing Disney inadvertently let everyone know he's returning for the next film. Typical boneheads.

wink

I'm likely in the minority here, but I'm interested in seeing Christensen again in some ways. While in comparison with someone like James Dean, who had that somewhat intimidating presence, Christensen just comes off as whiny, in need of a timeout.
He really wasn't intimidating as the Dark-Side-leaning Anakin. Even his glare wasn't threatening.
I don't know how they would work him into it, but I'd be interested in seeing him as Darth Vader, ten years into his Dark Side journey.

MAJOR MATT MASON---Tom Hanks will star in the Paramount Pictures/Mattel Films movie based on the Mattel astronaut action figure. Akiva Goldsman will write the script based on a short story about Mason.


For real this time? The project has been in and out of development for awhile. I loved my Matt Mason figures, the moon buggy, etc. I'm up for a Major Matt adventure, but Akiva Goldsman ? Damn. He's always seemed like a decent enough guy who knows how to survive in the movie business, but his more genre styled scripts usually suck.

If Disney had a hammer, they'd hammer in the morning, they'd hammer in the evening, all over this land . . .

And over at a certain cable news network, an anchor would be yelling: "STOP THE HAMMERING!!!"

I was obsessed with space, and had all or most of the Major Matt Mason toy line as a little kid. My parents even got me the black astronaut, because they thought it was visionary. He came in a blue space suit. I don't think MMM had a female action figure.

I hope they make a film like the Lego movie, that actually celebrates the toys. The other extreme is to make something like INTERSTELLAR or THE MARTIAN, and be Mason in name only. That could be a great movie, but why use the name?

THAT NEIL GUY:

I just looked up "Doctor Doom"......there really is a Doctor Doom. I don't read comic books, so I didn't know that.


Were there no Doctor Doom model kits in the '60s (or whenever your childhood was)? Never came across a Marvel cartoon? The imagery was everywhere, even if one didn't read books.

Darth Vader is a big-time Doctor Doom ripoff.

Yeah I thought Doctor Doom was one of the more famous villains. He was even in the recent Fantastic Four films.

Vader is more a ripoff of the villain from Fighting Devil Dogs though-

So am I (but I've still never heard of him).
Sounds like a gobshite.


He's actually pretty funny, but very wrong in this case. He was an actor in Community. He presents a pretty funny show called This Week Tonight or something like that. He hates Sepp Blatter, so he's not all bad.


He's also the nephew of composer Stephen Oliver, who wrote the score for Lady Jane (available on Quartet Records)
