DL: Alec Baldwin to revolutionize the film industry with Spaghetti Christmas Movies. Flying to Italy to film the CGI/live-action films. notfabio Mar 23, 10:34

As long as they're NOT Spaghetti westerns where he gets to hold a gun again.. {nm} Tallwonder Mar 23, 10:46

My guess is he's trying to sneak out ahead of any possible charges being brought against him that may bar him from leaving the country. {nm} notfabio Mar 23, 10:49

It has never been an actors responsibility to check a firearm for live rounds. {nm} erhead56 Mar 23, 12:47

Almost anyone who's actually been trained in handling firearms will disagree with that. {nm} DTravel Mar 23, 12:55

Then in addition to acting, we can add weapons master, armourer and perhaps stuntman to an actors list of duties and responsibilities... erhead56 Mar 23, 14:33

All he or she has to do when the weapon is handed to them is check if a round is in the chamber and visually check if there is a bullet DTravel Mar 23, 16:58

That is not so easy with a Glock or AR-15. That's why they don't put actors in charge of props and weapons. {nm} jakemongoose Mar 23, 17:32

Inside DTravel Mar 23, 21:22

The gun was meant to be loaded with fake bullets, but somehow live rounds got put in; even if Alec checked, he wouldn't have known. bsbbtnh Mar 24, 07:07

That may be the case. So why did he have any rounds at all in the weapon when he was rehearsing with it? DTravel Mar 24, 07:26

Because the Cinematographer needed the view with the smoke from the blank in the run through. Pennystocks2 Mar 24, 09:32

DL: CODA is already being adapted into a Broadway musical. notfabio Mar 23, 09:22

How has Dune never been a Broadway musical? {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 23, 09:26

Sand and giant props are hard to deal with for a musical, they did adapt Priscilla Queen of the Desert into a Broadway musical though! notfabio Mar 23, 09:37

Variety: Lionsgate, Walt Disney (and Disney+), Paramount+ and Peacock have Oscar TV Spots notfabio Mar 23, 07:32

New trailer for [MEN] Antibody Mar 23, 07:29

****ney. It's available in Tamil, Malayalam, Hindi and Telugu. {nm} RufusS Mar 23, 12:13

Steven Spielberg draws criticism for referring to the cast Of “Squid Game” As ‘unknown people’ Peterlee Mar 22, 18:32

It wouldn't be helpful for the Oscar campaign of this box office flop "West Side Story".... {nm} Peterlee Mar 22, 18:36

He didn't even say "Squid Games" {nm} Antibody Mar 23, 07:39

Christopher Nolan needs to cast a few Squid Game actors in Oppenheimer. TheWeekendWarrior Mar 23, 08:03

People really need to get a life. The epitome of absurd. We're all a little dumber now for dealing with this. Goodvibe61 Mar 23, 00:29

Seriously. It's so easy to people's twist words without giving proper context. TheWeekendWarrior Mar 23, 05:05

From random twitter people. Spielberg is also including his very own WSS which stars an unknown. "can be in movies." {nm} Antibody Mar 23, 07:37

Variety: “The Lost City” is expected to earn a promising $20 million in its opening weekend. notfabio Mar 22, 14:48

With possible FREEG legs afterwards? {nm} Jay_Beezy Mar 22, 14:55

Could act as counterprogramming to many of the April movies. {nm} TheWeekendWarrior Mar 22, 15:12

Yeah, there really isn't anything female skewing (wide release) until Mid-May. There isn't a contemporary romantic comedy until June 29th {nm} notfabio Mar 22, 15:17

Variety: Oscar Isaac sung his support of the Disney protests during press for MOON KNIGHT (pretty sure this will be a meme with video) notfabio Mar 22, 14:12
