Because of the American Screen Actors Guild rules, he couldn’t work for free. So Sean agreed on a fee of $1❤️ Thank you, Sean!

unlabelledView post →Among the very best wartime era propaganda movies - and blatantly plagiarised in the far inferior The Eagle Has Landed years later. A brutal film... with a cast that includes a young Thora Hird.
unlabelledView post →I'd say it's going to end badly but it's kind of ended worse than that even as it has begun. The political equivalent of Eddie the Eagle but without the future film and novelty song potential.
unlabelledView post →Anyway, any Brit wishing to escape all the international news today can settle down with BBC2 at 3.20pm, when "The Eagle Has Landed" is showing. It's a film about a group of soldiers attempting to kidnap another country's head of state. I'm not kidding. It really is on today.

A horror double bill from 9pm with John Carpenter's still-awesome The Fog, followed by Peter Wyngarde in cult movie Night of the Eagle. #TPTV film-authority.com/2014/02/08/n...
unlabelledView post →I feel like too many people sleep on "A Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie." It's another take on "It's a Wonderful Life." Is it a great movie? No. But the alternate Kermit-less world does give us doorman Bunsen, Beaker the Bouncer, pacifier-raver Sam the Eagle, and cage-dancer Scooter.

If you're not interested in witchcraft and the occult, then please don't bother to watch this movie anymore lol.

A director doesn't want to hear Rufus is having an off day. So yeah I hope it replaces all animals in any entertainment film that's not just observing animals.

I'm just about the same age as the film's director, Jeffrey Morris, and the Eagle landed for 8-year old me the same it apparently did for him back in September 1975.

What made the scene SUPER SURREAL for me was that the music playing during the scene was a "Chinese-cized" version of the "Match of the Day" theme song! 🤣

unlabelledView post →The Eagle is a silly film in many ways, but I appreciated how they gave the Romans American accents and the Britons English accents. Not only does it give the accents some meaning, but the US is far more the imperial power these days

When the film was acquired by 20th Century Fox, Taron Egerton and Hugh Jackman were hired for Edwards and Peary respectively. (Wikipedia) 🖤

unlabelledView post →I will always engage with this prompt. My response will always be the same. Pick a movie, keep one actor. The rest are muppets. Muppet Showgirls. Elizabeth Berkley remains as Nomi. Miss Piggy as Cristal. Sam The Eagle in Kyle MacLachlan's role. Beaker as that mean gay ginger choreographer.

unlabelledView post →Ooh fair point. We can be picky. One of the funniest things was watching the Taron Egerton film "Eddie the Eagle" based on someone from Cheltenham, Gloucestershire. the town I live in/my husband's home town and my husband and his dad spent the whole film assessing Egerton's Cheltenham accent.
