Ladies, get ready for James

I know I am officially a card carrying member of the Daniel Craig as 007 fan club. No bond has ever been sexier, more intense, than this blond hottie Daniel Craig. On top of all that eye candy , and raw masculine man power, Craig is also the best actor out of all the James Bonds from yesteryear. He has it all..looks, brawn, and raw acting talent. I am so happy we finally get to see another side to Bond, and we couldn’t have asked for a better actor than Daniel..Below is the film synopsis and trailer.

My opinion: This looks like another classic in the making. Two great actors in their prime.

Johnny Depp riding the Batman gravy train?

“The Dark Knight” is still on the tip of everyone’s tongue. But now, instead of folks breathlessly asking each other if they’ve seen it, talk has turned to speculation over Batman’s next foe. Who’s it gonna be?

iVillage is reporting that the Caped Crusader may take on the Riddler in “Batman 3.” According to the rumor mill, Johnny Depp might sign on to play the nefarious super-criminal. But caveat emptor—this could be just as false as the one about Crispin Glover playing the Joker.

Slashfilm notes that there are additional possibilities floating around. For instance, Phillip Seymour Hoffman may play the Penguin or Angelina Jolie could don Catwoman’s skin-tight suit. Truth or fiction, fanboys around the world must be having a heart attack at the mere possibility.

Still, the “official” rumor mill is just one of the ways superfans are checking in on the next Batman flick. Many seek the scoop themselves. We’ve noticed impressive searches on “batman 3 rumors,” “dark knight sequel casting rumors,” and “batman’s next villain.”

That last query is very telling. People clearly want to know the answer, but we doubt even the filmmakers have decided. To that end, may we offer the studio execs this humble piece of Search-informed advice: Go with Catwoman. She’s far-and-away the most popular baddie and there are already a slew of searches on possible cast members including Jessica Biel, Amy Adams, and, wait for it, Maggie Gyllenhaal. Do fans think Rachel Dawes, Bruce Wayne’s one-and-only, was really the Catwoman all along?

Why B Movies?

The B movie was a direct response by Hollywood to the falling cinema audiences of the early Depression years. Where previouslyaudiences had paid to see a single feature supplemented with shorts and cartoons, they were now treated with two features, one of which was a low-budget supporting film, the B.

In October of 1935 two of the big New York theater chains, RKO and Loew’s (the holding company for MGM), adopted the double feature in all of their principal theaters. This was a crucial moment in the development of the B film industry. Within a year 75% of all theaters in America were featuring double bills. All the major studios had their own B units, Read more
