Disco Stu 15,495 Posted October 26, 2017 Share Posted October 26, 2017 19 minutes ago, Alexcremers said: Apparently they forgot to film 10 to 15% of the script. Film has 8% on Rotten Tomatoes. The 10-15% comment is indeed what I was referring to when I said "Alfredson is even admitting as much, trying to explain what went wrong." Such a crying shame. He was basically a hired gun on this one I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not Mr. Big 4,642 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 All the Money in the World is getting a major post production overall with Chris Plummer refilming Kevin Spacey's scenes. Lots of things about it will change I imagine. Who knows, maybe we'll get a JW score for this after all! http://deadline.com/2017/11/kevin-spacey-dropped-all-in-the-money-in-the-world-christopher-plummer-ridley-scott-j-paul-getty-1202204437/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A24 4,348 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 They say removing Spacey from the movie is a bold move on Ridley's part but I say making a movie today that is not about superheroes is way more bolder.

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Well, it's official now. Death on the Nile from Kenneth Branagh is green-lit. 'Murder on the Orient Express' Sequel in the Works I may have been disapointed by Orient Express, but I welcome another attempt.

Incanus 5,716 Posted November 22, 2017 Share Posted November 22, 2017 Yes. And you can hire a bankable cast of big name actors to help to sell "the event". But then again I won't watch these. David Suchet kind of closed the book on Poirot adaptations for me. There will never be anyone who could top his performance to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said that half-jokingly. I do watch adaptations outside the quintessential portrayals of the classic sleuths like Hickson and Suchet and Brett and enjoy most of them but in the case of Poirot that one portrayal has been so strong that for some reason I actually feel strange watching someone like Branagh in the role.

Fancyarcher 350 Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 It's a great film, but without Weir's involvement (who hasn't made a film in seven years), I'm not sure a sequel is all that needed. I don't think studios are bending over their knees to cast Fat Crowe in that kind of role again anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Romão 2,274 Posted November 28, 2017 Share Posted November 28, 2017 Aubrey was at times quite fat in some of the novels, so Crowe is still perfect in the role. And anyways, actors can lose weight, you know? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
