James Bond is not only an irresistible charmer, but also a great gentleman. Is it true? When you watch the following scenes from the James Bond films, you will have a completely different opinion of the secret agent 007, as it is more about sexist than cavalier behavior. Well, to his credit, most of these scenes were created when the stereotype of a woman as a sexual object was much more entrenched in society. Well, even today, when there is so much emphasis on gender equality, people still behave in a way that belongs to another time and is worth condemning. You don't have to go too far in history for the last such example, as James Bond last behaved inappropriately towards women in the movie Specter (2015).

Christopher Nolan is back. The famed director, who rose to fame with films such as Origins, Interstellar, Man of Steel, The Dark Knight Trilogy, Insomnia and Memento, has provided insight into his new film Dunkirk.

The Pokemon that the mobile game Pokemon GO made more popular than ever before in their 20-year history will sooner or later get their own movie. It's just inevitable. Even the Angry Birds are there. But before we get a movie version starring pocket monsters, let's take a look at what movies like ET, Throat, Indiana Jones, etc. would look like if they featured Pokemon.
King Arthur: Legend of the Sword is a new reincarnation of King Arthur, this time in the interpretation of the British director Guy Ritchie (Murderers, Thieves and Two Packets, Spit and Squeeze, Sherlock Holmes), who managed to transfer his unique style to a fictional character from British mythological history and also a popular film character. After Sean Connery and Clive Owen, Charlie Hunnam (Ring of Fire, Sons of Anarchy) took on the role of King Arthur. Former football player David Beckham also appears in the film!
While we can see him brandishing a gun in Jason Bourne on posters and soon on the big screen, in the latest and first-ever trailer for the big-budget film The Great Wall, he brandishes a bow. The Great Wall is, of course, the almost nine thousand meter long Great Wall of China, but in the American-Chinese production film (in terms of financial terms, it is the largest film cooperation between the United States and China in history) it does not protect people from the invasions of Mongolian and Hun tribes, but rather and monsters! The giant of Chinese cinema, Zhang Yimou, wielded the director's baton over the film.
Mechanic: Resurrection is a brutal action thriller starring the charismatic Jason Statham (in the role he was born to play - that is, the role of a contract killer) as Arthur Bishop, an ice assassin with a strict code.

It has already started. The 7th season of the TV series Game of Thrones will not be broadcast until 2017, and the creators have already started teasing us with the first glimpses. Those of you who have been anticipating the first scenes of Season 7 may be slightly disappointed by the teaser, but any true fan will be able to appreciate what HBO has given us as an appetizer. It's a slightly different take on the popular series, and you'll never look at it the same way again.
The Blair Witch Project (The Blair Witch Project) is a cult horror film from 1999, which, like the movie Seagull, chased people out of the woods. At Comic Con in San Diego, the news that her sequel is coming - a Blair Witch movie - came like a bolt from the blue!
