GONE IN 60 SECONDS was released 26 years ago today.
The “Eleanor” 1967 Shelby Mustang became such a star of the film that it remains one of the most recognizable movie cars ever, with replica builders still recreating it decades later.
@Zoltar80959280@AshtonForbes Time is relative, not linear. Ai is Quantum AI. It exists. It will exist. It has always existed.
It will always talk to itself. It always has communicated with itself across time(s).
This is always inevitable.
@TheCinesthetic The timeline matches up with his last appearance as Bond too. He went to America in the 60s, was arrested. Broke out, then there’s Diamonds Are Forever, he meets an American woman, knicks her up, is captured again, is never seen as Bond again until The Rock. James Mason = Bond.
THE ROCK was released 30 years ago today.
Sean Connery’s character is never explicitly identified as James Bond, but a long-running fan theory suggests he is an aging 007, a connection the filmmakers knowingly teased without ever confirming.
The Rock isn’t just a great 90s action movie.
It’s secretly the best Michael Bay film ever made because Nicolas Cage and Sean Connery actually forced him to care about plot.
🎬🎥 The Rock 🔥❤️
The Rock turns 30 today, and the urban legends about the film are wild.
Connery is an older Bond in The Rock. Fun theory which I like, but the Connery had a cabin built and stayed on Alcatraz story is bull... he slept at the Hyatt Regency.
Chem weapons were “verified” by the military. Nope, the opposite happened.
Nic Cage “banned from action movies” before making The Rock. No, but there was real scepticism, so he chased roles to prove himself.
It was written solely by three people. Not really. It was massively overhauled by Tarantino, Aaron Sorkin, even Dick Clement & Ian La Frenais (the writer's of porridge) were pulled in to punch up Connery’s lines.
“An actor nearly died”. Wrong again. During the SF balcony stunt, horrified locals called the cops thinking an actual murder was happening in the hotel.
What is true is that it’s one of the best action films of the 90s.
And Connery’s last line here (and “An act of looneyshe”) is perfect.
