The story of a fighter who needs to get drunk to fight made for the perfect action comedy , because the joke engine of the comedy is driven by action. The fights are masterfully choreographed and performed by experts, but it has a slapstick approach. As usual, Chan’s stunt work is impecca
One of my favorite scenes in all of movie history is the scene in the valley where he's about to destroy it, and you get that amazing speech about the ark and humanity passing through history. I just want to dive into that: how it was written, how you approached it on set, what direction you were given. I'd love to just learn a bit more about that sc
Most people couldn’t imagine anybody playing Indiana Jones except for Harrison Ford . Ford has even said he never wants to be replaced as Indiana Jones and nobody else wants that either. That being said, Tom Selleck was super close to playing the famous archeologist. Actors such as Tim Matheson, Peter Coyote, John Shea auditioned for the role, but Selleck was offered the posit
"Who shot the couch?" Cancer will quip upon seeing these duds, which look unrealistic on the uninterested actors. There's no adventure here past the romantic relationships, which doesn't help, and there's virtually no chemistry here between certain couples. Cancers will yawn all the way through
Watching the movie again, what stood out to me is how you're barefoot for so much of the movie - including places that would really hurt in real life, like burning sand and rough rocks. How was that to film? Because that definitely looks like a challe
To celebrate 40 years of Raiders of the Lost Ark - and the 4K release of the Indiana Jones collection - Screen Rant connected with Allen to discuss her enduring experience with the film, from those early talks with producers to the experience of shooting a globe-trotting movie in bare f
Looking at every movie and its score on review aggregate site Metacritic, this list will hopefully give a newcomer to either franchise a better understanding of the movies and their sometimes complicated hist
Maybe hate is the wrong word, as Cancers will be riveted by this movie for a while before turning against it. A Cancer will empathize with a strong and honest woman who is set up against an entity more powerful than hers
There was a different kind of intensity. Because of 1941, the intensity was in the speed with which we had to make it. Steven has spoken about this quite a bit since, but it taught him that you didn't need to take all the time he was taking in making a movie before; that he could work fast without losing the quality. They had all sorts of clauses in their contract between each other, Steven and George, to make sure that Steven came in on time and under budget - which he did. It was a very fast shoot, in the sense that in Tunisia in the heat there, Steven would run between setups. The film crew was the same film crew that I'd been working with on Dogs of War immediately before in Belize, which was hot too - and humid heat. But in Tunisia, they were falling asleep at lunchtime in their food because Steven was just running them ragged. As soon as he said "Cut!" in one set, he would run across the sand to the next set and say, "Alright, I'm here! Next." He drove the thing like a steam eng
I'm afraid I might disappoint you. It's very much the same thing. Steven doesn't give any acting direction - that is, he doesn't talk about [it]. He expects you to have done your research; to have done mouse click the following web page background stuff. He's not going to tell you what you should be thinking as a character at this point in time. What he will say while you're working is, "Look right, look left" because he's looking at what the visual looks like. It's the great thing about somebody who knows their job so well. Once somebody who knows their jobs so well makes a choice, then you just go with it. And that was always apparent with him. It would be breathtaking: you'd come on the set, expecting to do a scene which in the script is a small scene in a tent - a small scene between me and Anthony Higgins and Wolf Kahler, which was set in a tent. When I got to the set, it was an enormous valley. It was a construction site. People with donkeys and ladders carrying sand around, as though they were building the pyramids. And that was entirely Steven leading with his vis
Some zodiac signs don't really mind if you already know how a story ends, but it's one of Cancer's pet peeves. Our crabby friend likes surprises - although preferably pleasant ones - and happy endings. We know from the title that's not going to happen here, and so does Cancer, which is why they won't waste their t
Other than the costumes, a Cancer won't be interested in this movie. In fact, the costumes aren't even that good. Dangerous Liaisons looks less like a movie and more like a fancy dress party that your friend put on as a j
They just started filming Indiana Jones 5 over here in the UK, with James Mangold directing. Have you been following the developments of this movie? Are you looking forward to seeing what they've cooked up? It's going to be quite an interesting movie
