Note that the following contains one or twomild spoilersabout the movies plot developments. It just so happens that what Don [DeLillo, the author ofCosmopolis] wrote was prescient and clairvoyant. It felt more that the world was finally catching up with him! I mean, we knew that we werent! So isCosmopolisan anti-capitalist film? DC:Its interesting, but there really are no anti-capitalists in this movie. Its also been noted that the Occupy Wall Street movement isnt really anti-capitalist....

But by the time the third season had come to a close, things had grown a little stale. It was the success story it became because of the stunning realisation of its central protagonist. Lets remember the things that made it great, and not the mistakes it made along the way.

James tells us everything we need to know… But who is that, and why is it such a surprise? Its a simple question with an easy answer but one that can only lead to confusion. The only answer that works is that its someone else inside the suit. That remains to be seen. It could mean this is a modified version of Rhodes War Machine armour. It could mean that its a new suit reverse-engineered from the Starks....

Theres a write up on it on our website, which you might enjoy reading. In attendance were Nickelodeons Senior Vice-President of Animation Rich Magallanes and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles co-creator Kevin Eastman. I was lucky enough to get some time to speak to them about this new series. I was so excited. Im a Ninja Turtles nerd and have covered a bunch of Turtles stuff on this site. Rich Mallaganes would have made an interesting interview subject on his own....

Of course, thats the conclusion to the Cornetto Trilogy. Do you have any plans to work with Edgar Wright after that? Ad content continues below Oh, God yeah! Edgar and I never sat down and said, Lets make a trilogy. Weve been friends sinceSpaced, since beforeSpaced, actually, since we didAsylum. Well always work together. But with these films, we kind of set out to do three films that tied together thematically....

We celebrate a hugely influential poker movie with a great cast. Read our look-back at John Dahl’s 1998 film, Rounders, here. For these dedicated grinders, this isnt a film, its a mission statement. The plot deals mainly with his struggle between two contrasting destinies. Mike begins the movie as a reformed character. McDermotts respectable tendons straining against the inexorable attraction of a night spent winning other peoples money. Which would be great, were it not for Worms destructive tendencies....

I have to admit, I fell in love with it a little bit. Hows filming for season 2 coming? Ad content continues below Season 2 has a whole new cast or almost a whole new cast? I read on Digital Spy that Charlotte Salt, who plays Kate, is back is that right? I think of it likeLost,really. So will season 2 continue the story from season 1? Yeah, we were really keen to double-check that season 1s story was properly continued....

Theres no way it would. Ad content continues below Its tough! Anyway, he gave me an envelope, which contained the script forPennies From Heaven. At the time I was doing a film with Neil Simon who was then the highest paid writer. But if you dont, it reverts back to me. And three days before that six-month period was over I got a green light on that film. And it was the single biggest disaster in MGMs history (laughs)....

But who is Bane? Where did he come from? And what elements of his storied past have Team Nolan keyed into for his second big-screen bow? Inside the prison, Bane had heard rumours of Gotham and its protector Batman. As a child, Bane had suffered from nightmares of a bat-demon that would terrify him. Coming to Gotham with his team in tow, Bane began a military style campaign against the Dark Knight....

I still feel that we need to be pulled up to speed aboutSnow White and the Huntsman. We only saw half an hour of clips from the film… Which is 26 minutes more than Ive seen, by the way… Ad content continues below …and only one scene with the dwarves. But we saw epic battles, monsters and more than mild peril. So is this quite a radical reworking of Snow White?...

Hes super cool, but before long hes gushing. He even talks about that tough guy image, but by then the spell has been long broken… Ad content continues below How did you get involved in Snow White and the Huntsman? I got a script through. And I was just sold. Hes come out of nowhere, hasnt he? This is his first film. They must think a lot of him, to give him a movie this big on his first film....

Rhod Gilbert doesn’t like dressing as a woman, but he’s fallen in love with teaching. We talk to him about his new tour, and his Work Experience show… As series one and two arrive on DVD, he squeezed in some time for a chat… I caught your tour the other week. Now I guess inevitably with TV exposure and stuff, theres an awful lot of new people. It was mainly fans....

Im not even going to lie and say that I chose this path. Everyone else probably got a phone-call that said, just come in. He [Rupert Sanders] took a chance and hopefully I didnt disappoint. That was what really drew me to the part and the project? Was the fact it was Hammer studios also a big draw for you? For the first time, Im not nervous! Jared Harris isnt a bad co-star…...
