Report: A surprising cast member is coming back for “24: Live Another Day”… who is it???

Leave a comment

Another 24 original cast member is set to return to the new “24: Live Another Day” mini-series. Mary Lynn Rajskub is set to reprise her role as Chloe O’brian. Who is she, you may ask? Well, if you’ve seen 24, she’s that weird looking woman who sits at the computer talking to Jack on the phone while he works on his missions to hunt down terrorists.

More on the story, here.

Sounds like the original “24” gang is coming back. The cast and the crew! All we need next is for Tony Almeida and Kim Bauer to return… then we’re set!

I love “24”! When I first got Netflix, “24” was the second TV show I watched on it. “LOST” was the first TV show I watched on Netflix, then all of “24”. As soon as I saw the first episode of “24”, I was completely hooked! Watched every episode and every season back to back.

I really do think this mini-series is a test for a hopeful big screen movie. I think they want to see how this new TV show will do. If it gets a lot of ratings and does well… then they’ll get to work on the big screen film that we’ve been wanting for years!

Thoughts on the show “24”…

Leave a comment

I usually watch Netflix on TV on the days there’s nothing on cable, so I would watch a lot of “24” at night. I would have to say that the show is very “addicting”. I couldn’t stop watching it ever since I started the first episode of Season 1. I’ve just started Season 4 this week.

Jack Bauer is one of TV’s best characters, plus “24” has the best writing. The show is action packed and violent. I also love the show’s unpredictability, you just never know what will happen next. Besides Jack Bauer, some of my other favorite characters are David Palmer, Tony Almeida and of course, Kim Bauer.

So far, it’s an excellent show and I’m loving all of it. I still got ways to go to finish the series because it lasted a good 8 seasons, it’ll take me forever to get through. It’s a pretty thrilling show and I’m glad I’m finally getting into it.

So far, my favorite TV shows are: “Friday Night Lights”, “The Walking Dead”, “Game of Thrones”, “Dexter”, “Star Trek: The Next Generation” and now you can add “24” to that list.

Why didn’t I put “Lost” on there? Well I thought “Lost” was pretty good, but it wasn’t the best show ever. “Lost” had a lot of really whacky shit on there, I think to myself, JJ and Damon came up with that stuff? I do like some of the characters on “Lost” , but the writing can get really confusing at times.

After I complete “24”, I think I’m going to start watching “Breaking Bad”, because they just started streaming that show on Netflix now. I’ve heard good things about “Breaking Bad” and been wanting to check it out for a while.

Bin Laden in the movies…

Leave a comment

Now that Bin Laden is gone, you can expect a bunch of Hollywood movies about Bin Laden coming the way. In fact, there is already one in the works right now. Kathryn Bigelow and Mark Boal, the same makers of the Iraq war film, “The Hurt Locker” is getting right to work on a movie about killing Bin Laden.

Deadline, reports.

You can expect both the movie and music industry to obsess with Bin Laden’s death. Yes, there will be bands and songwriters to write songs about Bin Laden.

About Bin Laden in the movies, I had a feeling that Kathryn Bigelow would be the first to pick up on it. You can expect a Bin Laden biopic film coming the way too.

There will be plenty of TV shows about Bin Laden. You can expect Law and Order TV show to do their own version of the Bin Laden killing as well.

I would also expect the “24” movie to hit the big screen soon, so hopefully Keifer Sutherland and the film makers would move forward with the film. I’m sure they’ll get right on it. The TV show “24” is about Jack Bauer hunting down dangerous terrorists. Keifer said many times in interviews that a “24” movie for the big screen is in the planning stages, but they have never gone as far as making it just yet. Maybe they’ll get right to work on it asap. Hopefully. Will we see Jack Bauer killing Bin Laden on the big screen? We’ll have to keep our fingers crossed for now.

Thought: Top 5 actors that I think should play Roland Deschain of Gilead for “Dark Tower” film…

3 Comments

Ron Howard reportedly said he was going have a big name star to play Roland Deschain of Gilead for the live action, “Dark Tower” movie coming soon to the big screen. I’ve thought of 5 actors that could be perfect for the role.

Here they are!

  • Hugh Jackman – I mean, think about it. The reason I think Jackman would be perfect is because his Wolverine character was so much like Roland Deschain. Roland needs to be a bad ass tough guy like he was in the books, that’s what Wolverine was. Plus, Hugh Jackman has Roland’s look in the “Dark Tower” graphic novels.
  • Thomas Jane – Thomas Jane already played in two different Stephen King movies, Tom was in “Dreamcatcher” and, “The Mist”. Tom wouldn’t be a bad choice for Roland, ’cause he has this tough guy bad ass attitude as well!
  • Christian Bale – Many would disagree with this choice, I’m sure, but Bale wouldn’t make a bad Roland at all. Bale had this tough guy attitude when he played in Batman and “Terminator: Salvation”, which is what Roland needs, so Christian would be pretty decent!
  • Keifer Sutherland – Keifer’s hit show “24” is over and done with, I’m sure he’ll go back to movies full time again soon. I can see Keifer making one badass Roland. He might be able to pull it off.
  • Jackie Earle Haley – The “Watchmen” and “Nightmare on Elm St.” star could fit the Roland role as well. Jackie would be great.

Lets just hope Ron doesn’t get Tom Hanks or Russell Crowe for Roland. Ron and Tom Hanks worked together for so long over the years, I don’t think Hanks is needed for this one. I’m pretty sure Tom Hanks will get a role for “The Dark Tower” series, but not as Roland.

Report: 24 is coming to the big screen, Jack Bauer ready to kick your ass!!

Leave a comment

This is big news for fans of the hit TV show, “24” starring Kiefer Sutherland. “24” is finally coming to the big screen! Is this the studios way of competing with Jason Bourne and James Bond? Seems like it. If legendary TV shows like “Star Trek”, “Sex and the City”, and “X-Files” can successfully come to the big screen, why not, “24”?

I wasn’t that big of a fan of the show but I do like it and did watch it sometimes. I’ll see the film when it hits theaters, sure. With “24” being an action packed TV show, I’m pretty sure they have plans to make the movie version ten times more violent. So be ready for a big action packed movie, folks!

It’s awesome that Kiefer is finally coming back to the big screen in a huge way ’cause he hasn’t had a huge franchise since the two Young Guns movies.
