What is your favorite samurai project? Sad news for the crew in the film industry in Vancouver, as FX's 'Shōgun' has wrapped filming on its second season after eight months of production. Along with season 3 of 'The Last of Us', the samurai show employed one of the largest crews in the city, which will leave a giant hole until the show comes back or The CW unlikely brings back the Arrowverse. The show filmed at North Shore Studios, an old sawmill in Port Moody and in the coas

What is your favorite Tom Hardy project? I'm defintinely going with 'Warrior' which I consider the greatest sports film ever made. Especially Hardy's performance with Nick Nolte, who played his abusive father in two mesmerizing scenes. The first in the casino, where Hardy told Nolte he would never forgive him, which caused him to relapse back into alcoholism before he saw their shared pain of serving in the Army, and comforted him in the hotel room. Great news for fans of Par

What is your favorite Ridley Scott film? Crazy news has come out from Hollywood insider Matt Belloni, as he claims Ridley Scott dropped Paul Mescal from 'The Dog Stars' because he blames Mescal for the failure of 'Gladiator II' for not being masculine enough like Russell Crowe, who led the first film. 'Gladiator II' made $462 million worldwide on a reported $300 million budget but was slammed by both critics and viewers. I think the big problem is that Scott's filming style h

What is your favorite racing film? Exciting news for fans of 'Days of Thunder" as Anne Hathaway was added to the cast of the upcoming sequel as a race car owner and engineer who will most likely be the new love interest for Tom Cruise's Cole Trickle. This, of course, means the chances of Nicole Kidman returning as Dr. Claire Lewicki are down to zero. Not a shocker for those who don't follow pop culture. Cruise and Kidman fell in love on the first one and were married for elev

What is your biggest film fan theory? I have an insane fan theory about the upcoming 'Avengers: Doomsday,' and that is that Robert Downey Jr. isn't actually playing Doom but a Tony Stark/Iron Man variant? I have no evidence online to back this up, but that's the best part of watching movies is to be a fan. It is possible that he is playing both Doom and a variant, which would make more sense. It's rumored Downey Jr. is making $100 million for the film, and its sequel 'Avenger

Who is your favorite MMA fighter? I'm going old school and saying Tank Abbott. Then it was Tito Ortiz, and finally Nate Diaz. Now the sport has become so diluted by weekly events that while I still watch with friends the big events, they have lost the big stars in Brock Lesnar, Jon Jones, and recently Conor McGregor. Good news for fans of Jon Jones, the embittered UFC GOAT. Mark Wahlberg at the UFC 330 event teased a biopic film about his life with his co-star, Yahya Abdul-Ma

What is your favorite David Fincher film? I'm going with 'Fight Club' as it is the perfect movie to debate with other cinephiles over story, visual style, and characters. I once worked on set with Meat Loaf on the legal series 'Fairly Legal' and was lucky enough to talk to him about it. Sad news for fans of the Korean series 'Squid Game' as Netflix isn't moving forward with David Fincher's spinoff series, which was planned to take place in the USA but be filmed in the UK. Wri
