'Alfred Hitchcock's complete films to be shown in London retrospective'

http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/2012/apr ... sfeed=true

Happiest day of my life!!! An entire Hitchcock retrospective! I'm sorted for this summer.
Go ahead, make my day - by visiting my blog: http://jacobthehobnob.wordpress.com/

Member number 33 of the "100 free films in 2012" club. I saw 32, which is rather delightful.. I beat Mr. Glass on free films but he narrowly inched me out on total films seen.

Member number 33 of the "100 free films in 2011" club. I saw 20, interestingly enough. My more realistic target was to see more free films than TheyCallMeMrGlass. I lost.

Hi,

I wondered if anyone else has read The Host (from the author of Twilight) I am reading it at the moment and if the film matches up to the book it will be brilliant! :)

Check out the trailer here and information ....

Not out until March 29th 2013, but defnintely looks worth the wait....

andrews wrote:The Host gets a director.

The author of Twilight, Stephenie Meyer, is working on a screen adaptation of her sci-fi novel The Host.
The book, very much like Meyer's Twilight series, involves a love triangle. Set in a world where alien body snatchers rule Earth, an alien is fused with a dying woman in a bid to hunt the last remaining man on the planet - only to find the woman falling in love with him.
Gattaca's Andrew Niccol will write and direct the film.
Producer Nick Wechsler said, "We wanted Stephenie to be involved in the adaptation and have her endorse and be part of the creative decisions. Twilight has proved she knows more about what works than most."

Has anyone read this novel? Any thoughts about it? Does it match the Twilight series for excitement?

Hi,

Reading it now. Will be brilliant if it is close to the book and does it justice. :)

Yes, soooo long! I think they have delayed it due to the huge Twilight success. Now I am trying desperately not to finish the book too quickly as I know once I finish, the wait for the movie will seem even longer! :s

Tom Cruise Top Gun sequel in the pipeline

A sequel to Tom Cruise's hit 80's action film Top Gun is officially in development, it has been revealed. Rumours of a follow-up to the 1986 flick first surfaced last year, with Cruise saying that a sequel would happen if the script was good enough. In an interview with The Hollywood Reporter, Paramount executive Adam Goodman confirmed that the project is officially in pre-production. Talking about a possible fifth instalment of the Mission: Impossible series, Goodman remarked: "We'll likely make a Top Gun sequel with Tom Cruise first. Jerry Bruckheimer would produce, with Tony Scott returning to direct... All parties are moving ahead." Meanwhile it is thought that The Town writer Peter Craig will write the script. The original movie starred Cruise as Maverick, a cocky fighter pilot opposite Val Kilmer, Meg Ryan and Kelly McGillis.
