It’s only mid-August and sadly, we’ve nearly come to the end of the anticipated Summer season tent-pole releases. While we’ll get to see the new Bourne flick this Friday, many fans are looking forward to a little spy film called Skyfall coming out this Fall. That’s right, the one, the only James Bond is back and to further whet your appetites (beyond that awesome trailer) MGM and Columbia Pictures have released these bold and glossy banner and posters in the UK. Seen at 007.com, these look just as slick the as anything you’d expect from the world of the James Bond…enjoy!! Like that? Well, why wouldn’t you…if it’s Bond, then it’s…

Sweet Trailer(s)…007 Is Back In 'Skyfall'!
Oh boy, Bond is back and we can honestly say the wait has been far too long!! Since things about the projects have been hush hush until now, save for some snazzy still/set shots and a teaser that was all kinds of WOW, I can’t tell you how overjoyed we are to share the first full trailer for Bond 23, the mysteriously titled Skyfall…No more words, just watch!!! Not good enough for you? Then how about this “International” trailer which changes things up and offers something just a tad different… Daniel Craig is without a doubt one of the best (if not the most idealized) Bond and gives great new…

Sweet (Teaser) Trailer…'Skyfall'
We are about 6 months away from the highly anticipated 23rd entry to the 007 franchise and today we get the very first teaser trailer! Skyfall is directed by Academy Award winner Sam Mendes (Road to Perdition, Away We Go) and will see the return of Daniel Crag for his third outing as the world’s most popular super-spy. For a teaser, this looks really, really good. It doesn’t give much away but still hints at the allure and mystique we’ve come to expect in the James Bond universe. Enough talk, enjoy… Craig will be sharing the screen with some simply top drawer talent including Dame Judi Dench, Ralph Fiennes, Albert Finney, Naomie Harris, Bérénice Marlohe, as…

G-S-T Review…The Adventures of Tintin
Editor’s Note: Go,See,Talk presents this review of The Adventures of Tintin as the debut entry from our guest contributing writer Andrew Crump (of A Constant Visual Feast). He’s going to be making some more appearances on G-S-T in the next few weeks so have a look at what he had to say about Steven Spielberg’s latest blockbuster and offer your thoughts below. While watching The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn, you can feel Spielberg grinning happily on the other side of the camera. It’s a welcome quality; adapting Hergé’s beloved comic books to screen in the first of a planned series of films with collaborator Peter Jackson seems to have brought out the…

G-S-T Review…The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo
In film circles there’s that age old remake question: How do you take something that already has a following and in one sweep appease fans of the original and bring on a whole new audience? Well, most directors would find themselves painted in a corner, but not David Fincher. With his first stab at a remake he effectively translates this dark and unsavory story into something that really pulls you into the mix and rises above being another bland retread. He can chalk up another win to his near perfect scorecard but he’s only half of the equation that makes this work. Noomi Rapace is a very tough act to follow…

Bond 23 Officially Called 'SKYFALL' – Starts Shooting Next Week
Today the Web is buzzing with news of the new Bond film. Until now Bond’s upcoming film has been titled very simply Bond 23 but today we get a singular name: Skyfall. Sony Pictures had a big press conference about the next James Bond earlier today and all the key players of Skyfall were present including producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli. The film, from Albert R. Broccoli’s Eon Productions, Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios, and Sony Pictures Entertainment, is directed by Academy Award winner Sam Mendes and stars Daniel Craig, who returns for his third film as James Bond 007. Neal Purvis, Robert Wade and John Logan wrote the screenplay for Skyfall which goes into…

'Bond 23' Has Its Villain…Javier Bardem
Wow, it’s been too long since I’ve heard casting news this good! After MGM’s unfortunate financial woes, it looked like the world’s most beloved super-spy James Bond, contrary to his famous post credits tag line, might not return to the silver screen. Thankfully, through those oh so secret meeting behind executives’ closed doors, all the hiccups and hurdles were cleared and the latest Bond has been moving forward with director extraordinaire Sam Mendes at the helm. But like any story, a hero is only as good as his villain and Bond 23 has snagged a doozy.

G-S-T Review…Dream House
At first glance the names Craig, Weisz, Watts and Sheridan look great on a poster and together could help make a solid film. But even a roster like that can contribute to something terrible. In short Dream House is constantly plagued by components that seem beyond amateur; shoddy editing, thin story, poor dialog, etc. Then there’s other things that don’t help any. As a film fan my attention to detail tends to get the better of me and certain things just take me out of the story. Scenes that are supposedly shot in the Winter and yet there’s no breath coming out of anyone’s mouth. It’s minor mind you but it’s made all the…

Sweet (4 Minute) Trailer…'The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo'
Earlier this year the red band trailer for the remake of The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo hit the web. It surprised most everyone and received quite a lot of praise (even so far as to inspire a brilliant parody trailer). As it’s one of our most anticipated films this Winter we at G-S-T decided to ignore anything and everything TGwtDT, taking a firm stance to severely stay in the dark until its release. Now I had heard about the 8 minute trailer and as such chose to ignore it. Buuuut at the screening of Moneyball on Tuesday (review up Friday), the film was headed by the same 8 minute trailer I was hoping…

Sweet Trailers…'Super Bowl XLV Ads'
For those of you who saw the Super Bowl you’ll know there were some pretty dope spots for this year’s . This morning I heard a radio announcer say that “in two weeks, a majority of those who watched it will forget the score, but the commercials will live on“. Good point, however I believe the same can be said for a few of most of those Movie Spots. But whether the movie in question will actually be any good (or live up to this hype) is another thing entirely. So whether you missed the Super Bowl and this is your first time them or if you just want to see…
