positive · AI labelView post →Anthony Quinn & Gregory Peck (with Anthony Quayle watching on) partake in a game played on set in between takes for as long as Film has existed — Chess — during production of THE GUNS OF NAVARONE (1961)

When I found out he'd been cast in DS9, I thought "wow, they got the guy who did Yogi's singing voice in Hey There It's Yogi Bear?", because I was 18 and hadn't seen The Guns of Navarone but had seen Hey There It's Yogi Bear around 500 times variety.com/2024/film/ne...

Best Picture nominee has Allied commandos on dangerous mission to take out powerful enemy stronghold. Rewatch. #filmsky 📽
positive · AI labelView post →- Saving Private Ryan - Fury - The Big Red One - Force Ten From Navarone (it is a sequel to The Guns of Navarone, which is also great) - The Dirty Dozen - Patton - Memphis Belle - Victory (While no Nazi’s are killed in the movie watching them get humiliated is nice) It is sometimes called “Escape to Victory”.
neutral · AI labelView post →Often called the "*Citizen Kane* of bad films" due to both its cult status as the best bad movie of all time and to the remarkably layered depth of the badness, *The Room* is a 2003 dark drama indie film written by, produced by, directed by, and starring Tommy Wiseau – an enigmatic eastern European man who originally wrote the film as a play and a book and took inspiration from his favorite classics like *A Streetcar Named Desire*, *Rebel Without a Cause*, *Citizen Kane*, and *The Guns of…

neutral · AI labelView post →2001; A Space Odyssey I generally like older, slower paced movies. The Bridge over the River Kwai, Lawrence of Arabia, and The Guns of Navarone are all great movies, despite them being very dated in some regards. With that in mind, I decided to give the movie a try, it being a very famous classic and all. Despite that, my expectations weren't unrealistically high, but the movie still fell very short. So, it consists of four chapters/acts, basically. The first one (with the monkeys) was very…
positive · AI labelView post →Share a film that has significance to you, for whatever reason 🎥 For me... The Guns of Navarone ♥️
positive · AI labelView post →This is why Rogue One for all its flaws remains the best post-Disney SW movie: it was The Dirty Dozen _and_ The Guns of Navarone _and_ Zatoichi the Blind Swordsman and it was not remotely subtle about what it was riffing on!
neutral · AI labelView post →Okay, granted...my eyes glazed over before I could finish reading this nonsense, but does anyone else get the feeling that 🍊💩🤡 just watched The Guns of Navarone or some WWII movie and he is just itching to be declared a great wartime 'president'?

positive · AI labelView post →A good WWII mission film with tension, sabotage, and a strong cast. My ★★★★ review of The Guns of Navarone on Letterboxd boxd.it/9TsuEt #filmsky
positive · AI labelView post →Behind the scenes on THE GUNS OF NAVARONE, which premiered this week in 1961. As far as I can tell, it's currently the oldest narrative film streaming on Netflix. #FilmSky
neutral · AI labelView post →Let's calibrate, buddy. Do you think the Guns of Navarone is a political movie because Gregory Peck and Anthony Quinn were blowing up a Nazi fortress?
neutral · AI labelView post →Tonight’s movie: The Guns of Navarone. One of my favorites! We happened to see that it’s leaving Netflix tomorrow so we’re watching it tonight!
positive · AI labelView post →The Guns of Navarone, I loved that book! Good movie as well. #HATM
positive · AI labelView post →Rewatched THE GUNS OF NAVARONE. You know how we talk about "a five-star three-star movie"? This is definitely a three-point-two three-point-five star movie. I think that's uh, pretty much the most things I can think to say about it.
neutral · AI labelView post →We watched The Guns of Navarone last night, classic war film I'd never seen. Seems like a key part of German military training was: if someone shoots you with a silencer, remember to die quietly. Good fun, 5 stars. David Niven nearly died.
positive · AI labelView post →Tonight’s movie: The Guns of Navarone. This one really moves despite being 2 1/2 hours long. Incredibly tense, well acted, lots of twists, and some great lines I will drop into conversation. Don’t miss Bond adversary Walter Gotell as a German officer.
positive · AI labelView post →Hokum was really good. I liked it. Loved Wilmot's character. The Guns of Navarone is a dandy war movie with a great cast. Haven't seen it in ages though. Have not seen the other two.
positive · AI labelView post →going to watch the Guns of Navarone from director J. Lee Thompson. Christopher McQuarrie said he is influenced by this film when making action films so I wanted to check it out. 📽️ NW:
neutral · AI labelView post →David Niven nearly died from blood poisoning while making The Guns of Navarone after splitting his lip while filming in a tank full of dirty water. After a month in hospital he returned to finish the film but it caused him to relapse for another seven weeks. bsky.app/profile/amyt...

neutral · AI labelView post →The Math Greek got me to watch THE GUNS OF NAVARONE by saying it was a Christmas movie. I'm not sure why he thought I needed that lying-ass incentive when it's already basically a heist film with Nazis...
positive · AI labelView post →THE GUNS OF NAVARONE is now on Netflix. My favorite war movie. And, yeah, it's about opening a critical sea channel. Plus ça change...
positive · AI labelView post →I've never seen "The Guns of Navarone" & asked my movie-loving hubs if he had? Of course he saw it -- with his dad -- who died in 1992. So I'm watching it for the 1st time this evening ... and wondering if hubby's perspective of it has been impacted by the subsequent 30 yrs of political events.

Also before the Pink Panther was the Guns of Navarone and 55 Day at Peking. He was also a Lieutenant colonel in WW2.

positive · AI labelView post →@weaseman.bsky.social Love that movie, "The Guns of Navarone." One of my favorites!
positive · AI labelView post →…which is another with an asterisk, because the producers had the rights to the Maltese Falcon book, but made this “sequel” as almost a parody of the original movie. (I have not seen it, tho.) Earliest without an asterisk, I think, is Force 10 from Navarone (1978), after The Guns of Navarone (1961)
neutral · AI labelView post →Iron Sky: there must be sci-fi con fan nights for this hilarious fan-funded sendup of every sci-fi movie - didn't leave out Metropolis, Dr Strangelove, The Guns of Navarone, a bit of Buffy. It's even funnier because I get the German. Get Bier und Nöms and prepare to be lachverklemmt. #tinyreviews
neutral · AI labelView post →I also rewatched it after Andor wrapped and there's still a lot that I liked about it and I'd rate it a strong B+ on the whole, but you can absolutely see the seams between the two different versions of the movie that got made. "The Guns of Navarone but a Star War" is a killer concept though.

neutral · AI labelView post →Well “The Guns Of Navarone” is just a great movie, period. ❤️
positive · AI labelView post →The 1961 film of Maclean's 1957 novel The Guns Of Navarone was so successful a sequel was planned with the same cast in 1967 even though the book didn't come out till 1968. This benefits from a good script although the traitor in our midst was a bit thin by this point. youtu.be/V3gA-Gnm6hQ?...

positive · AI labelView post →Channel 4 is showing The Guns of Navarone. I haven't seen this film since Channel 4 showed it last week.
neutral · AI labelView post →Die Hard (1988) This movie has - quite rightly - become a Christmas Staple around the world. It has even eclipsed The Guns of Navarone (1961) as the go-to Christmas movie for tired fathers trying to avoid the revelry going on around them.
neutral · AI labelView post →Isn't a Christmas movie also a 'blockbuster' movie that is broadcast repeatedly over the Christmas period? I can think of a few examples from the 70s\80s TV schedules - Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory (1971 version), The Sound of Music, Where Eagles Dare, The Guns of Navarone, The Great Escape.
