What if games developers opened their minds and chose the right movies? Read on.
Game movies suck. There’s just no getting around it, they really, truly suck.
Near enough the only game movie I’ve ever been able to just about tolerate was the first Tomb Raider, and even that was preposterous. You’ve got to look at Scott Pilgrim vs The World to see how a movie about gaming should be done.
Best movie about games? Oh yes, and it’s not even about games.
It got me thinking about the flip reverse, games based on movies. Now, to be fair this doesn’t fare much better. Of course standouts being the wonderful ‘Goldeneye 007’ on the Nintendo 64 and more recently, the brilliant ‘Toy Story 3’ (if you haven’t played it for whatever reason, do yourself a favour and pick it up, it really is great) and even more recently, »

Filming on "Skyfall", the much anticipated 23rd James Bond feature, wrapped this week in Turkey reports MI6. Daniel Craig reportedly finished his scenes this past Saturday and was spotted flying out to New York City on Sunday.
Second unit photography is still taking place this week in Adana in southern Turkey where scenes for the pre-titles sequence are being done. Shooting on the film began in early November, making "Skyfall" the longest shoot for a Bond feature since 1969's "On Her Majesty's Secret Service".
One good bit of news is all that work should show up on screen. Most Bond features clock in at a little over two hours, but the previous entry "Quantum of Solace" was an exception as it ran for just 106 minutes. Now, producer Michael G. Wilson appeared on BBC Breakfast and said don't expect such shortcutting this time - "It'll probably be longer, although we really »

The newest James Bond movie, "Skyfall," naturally comes with a new Bond girl - Sévérine, played by French actress Berenice Marlohe. In the flick, Marlohe says her Bond girl is "glamorous and enigmatic" and she drew inspiration from Famke Janssen's "GoldenEye" villainess Xenia Onatopp.
Marlohe was recently spotted at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival, shining brightly in her gorgeous dresses. In the above picture, left, Marlohe attends the premiere of "Amour" in a black evening gown. In the middle, she poses during a photoshoot at the Hotel Martinez. And right, Marlohe sparkles in gold for the premiere of "Vous N'avez Encore Rien Vu."
The actress has previously done several movies in France, but "Skyfall," the 23rd Bond film, will be the 33-year-old actress' first onscreen foray onto this side of the pond. Are you excited for "Skyfall"? It opens Nov. 9, 2012.

A major feature film will depict the intriguing life of James Bond author and creator Ian Fleming. The legendary Fleming's colorful career included a good deal of exotic travel and wartime intrigue in British naval intelligence. Many of these aspects of his life were incorporated into the 007 novels. The film is based on author Andrew Lycett's acclaimed biography of Fleming and has the full approval of the Fleming estate. Duncan Jones (son of David Bowie) will direct. A previous Fleming biopic was made for American television in the late 1980s with Jason Connery, son of Sean Connery, starring as the author. There was also a British Fleming biography starring Charles Dance titled Goldeneye, released prior to the Bond flick of the same name. For more click here »

With the "Skyfall" teaser still hot off the presses (and viewable below no less!), it was just announced that "Moon" director Duncan Jones will helm a biopic about "James Bond" creator Ian Fleming.
Variety has the news, saying that Jones is already busy casting the film, and it should begin shooting within the year. The project will be based on Andrew Lycett's biography, "Ian Fleming, the Man Behind James Bond."
For those of you who don't know much about Fleming, his life was almost as exciting as that of the British Secret Service agent that he created. He worked as a writer for Reuters before being recruited into the Royal Navy during World War II. There he formed a group of specialized intelligence troops and blossomed in the position. Following the war, he worked as a journalist again before he started writing the "James Bond" novels in his Jamaican home, »

Blu-ray Release Date: Sept. 25, 2012
Price: Blu-ray $299.99
Studio: MGM Home Entertainment/20th Century Fox Home Entertainment
MGM’s celebration of James Bond’s 50th anniversary includes this collection, which includes all 22 action films in the 007 series, a few new special features and promotion for the 23rd movie, Skyfall.
The Bond 50 set also represents the only collection with all the movies on high-definition Blu-ray. But it still doesn’t have Never Say Never Again, the 1983 unofficial Bond movie, although the set does have Thunderball, which is the same story (and Sean Connery even stars in both as the celebrated British spy).
Back in 2007, the James Bond Ultimate Collector’s Set arrived on DVD, containing all the franchise’s films at that time. The Bond 50 box includes everything in that DVD set, plus 2008′s Quantum of Solace, but all in Blu-ray.
The new special features on Bond 50 are:

David Bowie's filmmaker son Duncan Jones is slated to make a new movie about James Bond creator Ian Fleming.
The acclaimed Moon director is in the running to direct the biopic, based on Andrew Lycett's biography The Man Behind James Bond, according to Internet reports.
Casting officially is underway as studio bosses hunt for the man who will play the celebrated novelist.
Fleming's life was last turned into a movie back in 1990 when James Bond star Sean Connery's son Jason took on the role of the suave writer in The Secret Life of Ian Fleming.
Charles Dance also played Fleming in fact-based biopic Goldeneye in 1989. That film focused on the author's wartime exploits and romantic adventures, which ultimately led to his creation of 007.
Deadline.com reports the new Bond biopic will start shooting later this year - as fans of the film franchise celebrate the 50th anniversary of the release of Dr. No, the first official James Bond movie. »

The creator of James Bond lived more than his own fair share of drama, to be explored in a new 'period action movie' by the director of Moon
Some believe he dreamed up James Bond to be the bon vivant, daring and cultivated epitome of masculinity he could never quite live up to. In at least one regard, however, Ian Fleming is about to mimic his most famous creation: the author and former second world war naval commander is to be the subject of his very own movie, from the director of Moon and Source Code, Duncan Jones.
Jones will base his biopic on an adaptation by screenwriter Matthew Brown of Andrew Lycett's biography The Man Behind James Bond. The film reportedly has the support of the Fleming estate and is set to go into production later this year. It is something of a departure for Jones, whose two »

Someone get birthday boy Pierce Brosnan a drink -- shaken, not stirred!
One of the elite group of actors in the James Bond franchise, the 59-year-old Brosnan portrayed 007 between 1995 and 2002 before Daniel Craig took the reigns in 2006. Brosnan starred in four Bond films, including 1995's "GoldenEye."
When Brosnan traded his secret agent persona to sing in the film "Mamma Mia!" in 2008, he told Good Housekeeping: "I'm pretty tried-and-tested in the world of 'suit acting.' So I'm thrilled to be able to tackle something like this. I'm excited to see what will happen next. Really, at this stage in my career, I'm happy to still be at the table."
Before the big screen, Brosnan made a splash on the television show "Remington Steel," which ran 1982 to 1987. In 2011, he made his way back to TV in the screen adaptation of Stephen King's "Bag of Bones," portraying a novelist in the A&E mini-series. »
