A stuntwoman died yesterday in a motorcycle accident on the deadpool 2 set. Is stunty death as rare as it seems or is it not usually publicized?

Hey man, it was the 80's. Crossing Conan with Flash Gordon was cool at the time

Hitman's Bodyguard has some pretty good action, couldve been great with a few longer takes for some stunts, but it wouldve made em harder to nail the shot drat funny too, might be the best action comedy of the year.

The peak of that is the neon stairwell fight in Forced Vengeance, it's shown at the beginning, middle, and end of the movie. Not in full, but it is pretty

The guy in LW3 hammed it up well and has a lot of great lines though. "Now we can write our names in the cement!" He was also in Mask of Zorro and Hot Fuzz

Wheat Loaf posted:Which American movies have tried the same balance of action, comedy, drama and romance and gotten it right? As far as big movies go, I feel like Indiana Jones and Lethal Weapon come closest (though obviously they're a lot less elaborate than a Jackie Chan movie would be) but I may be completely off the mark there. Star Wars

Paycheck is pretty fun and the supporting cast is surprisingly stacked. I cant remember if the fights were very good, but there weeent many either, it was more of a thriller.

I read the Revelation book last year, it was pretty good but seemed a bit lower stakes than usual. I did enjoy chekov's zeppelin though . Soon as it was mentioned at the start I knew it would be used.

Wheat Loaf posted:I just saw Fallout this evening and very much enjoyed it. It was a bit slow to start but I think once they get to the HALO jump sequence (I shouldn't need to spoiler that but I'll err on the side of caution) it picks up and keeps a lot of energy. Mquarrie did most of the writing, and claims he didnt start until they picked locations, then trusted on inspiration for setpieces how could henry come back???

Jerkface posted:i hope it gets more and more mythological and if tom ever hands the franchise off the new person will take on the name ethan hunt. "there will always be a mission, there must always be a hunt" Some kind of meta-movie where all of Tom Cruise's roles meet up could be cool. Fate has merged the parallel universes and Hunt has to team up with his immortal self from the Mummy, Maverick, try to keep his bad guy from Collateral from backstabbing them, etc.

Walker the phone thing doesnt necessarily mean he's Lark, he couldve just wanted Hunt out of the way. Also i wonder why he killed the apostles he did. Did they not want to go along with the new order with him as stand-in boss while crazybeard was locked up?
