60 of 198 · most liked firstSean Penn starred in the Ukrainian film The Eagle. After reading the script and talking to director Myroslav Slaboshpytskyi, Sean decided to support the project. Because of the American Screen Actors Guild rules, he couldn’t work for free. So Sean agreed on a fee of $1❤️ Thank you, Sean!
neutral · AI labelView post →"The Eagle and the Dove", digital painting Inspired by the song "Flying Dreams", from the movie The Secret of Nimh. I sing this tune often to our blind parrot, but with made up lyrics (his name fits nicely into the song).
neutral · AI labelView post →Among the very best wartime era propaganda movies - and blatantly plagiarised in the far inferior The Eagle Has Landed years later. A brutal film... with a cast that includes a young Thora Hird.
positive · AI labelView post →I'd say it's going to end badly but it's kind of ended worse than that even as it has begun. The political equivalent of Eddie the Eagle but without the future film and novelty song potential.
neutral · AI labelView post →Anyway, any Brit wishing to escape all the international news today can settle down with BBC2 at 3.20pm, when "The Eagle Has Landed" is showing. It's a film about a group of soldiers attempting to kidnap another country's head of state. I'm not kidding. It really is on today.

neutral · AI labelView post →I feel like too many people sleep on "A Very Merry Muppet Christmas Movie." It's another take on "It's a Wonderful Life." Is it a great movie? No. But the alternate Kermit-less world does give us doorman Bunsen, Beaker the Bouncer, pacifier-raver Sam the Eagle, and cage-dancer Scooter.

Finnish Armored General Ruben Lagus reviewing troops in Äänislinna(Petroskoi) in 1942. The Finnish Mobilia Museum has a Tempo that was used in 'The Eagle Has Landed'(1976) film(Wiki).

If you're not interested in witchcraft and the occult, then please don't bother to watch this movie anymore lol.

Sidney Hayers directs from Fritz Leiber's novel as Peter Wyngarde plays a lecturer who unwisely throws out his new wife's dolls. 9.05pm. Gripping stuff. #TPTV film-authority.com/2014/02/08/n...

neutral · AI labelView post →where they are given the right to refuse 'sorry folks, Rufus the Eagle doesn't want to fly out right now...' that's not film. A director doesn't want to hear Rufus is having an off day. So yeah I hope it replaces all animals in any entertainment film that's not just observing animals.

I'm just about the same age as the film's director, Jeffrey Morris, and the Eagle landed for 8-year old me the same it apparently did for him back in September 1975.

What made the scene SUPER SURREAL for me was that the music playing during the scene was a "Chinese-cized" version of the "Match of the Day" theme song! 🤣
neutral · AI labelView post →Jeffrey's film is a joyous exploration of the show’s impact through the eyes of a little boy who, inspired by the Eagle, grew up to be a real-life filmmaker. I'm not sure where The Eagle Obsession be released, but keep your eyes opened!

Do we need deep lore on the Eagle-worshipping tribe of winged oh-fuck-they-eat-people? No! Do we need to know why the witch decided fetus transfer to a cow was the way to go? No!

neutral · AI labelView post →The Eagle is a silly film in many ways, but I appreciated how they gave the Romans American accents and the Britons English accents. Not only does it give the accents some meaning, but the US is far more the imperial power these days

neutral · AI labelView post →TRIVIA: Early on in development, Rupert Grint was rumored for the role of Eddie “The Eagle” Edwards, and Steve Coogan was set to play Bronson Peary. When the film was acquired by 20th Century Fox, Taron Egerton and Hugh Jackman were hired for Edwards and Peary respectively. (Wikipedia) 🖤

Elizabeth Berkley remains as Nomi. Miss Piggy as Cristal. Sam The Eagle in Kyle MacLachlan's role. Beaker as that mean gay ginger choreographer.

One of the funniest things was watching the Taron Egerton film "Eddie the Eagle" based on someone from Cheltenham, Gloucestershire. the town I live in/my husband's home town and my husband and his dad spent the whole film assessing Egerton's Cheltenham accent.
