Bryan Singer- Virgin Galactic

  Bryan Singer has a unique take on the world which in part, along with hard work, determination and skill, has helped him get to the position he is in today, as a leading director in Hollywood. He brings his passions into his filmography and privately has many interests including his fascination of outer space and the ability for humans to travel into our atmosphere. This is seen when he was filming Superman Returns (2006), the sixth and final instalment to the original Superman film series, where he won an award for Best Director at the 33 rd Saturn Awards. During filming he knew he needed an epic space shuttle sequence which portrays a plane full of passengers attached to a space shuttle and unable to decouple, leaving it to Superman to save the passengers including his heart throb Lois Lane. He said he was aware that NASA would not let them use their logo for the film sequence so he used his initiative to find another way of making a realistic sequence for the movie. This ...

  Bryan Singer , movie director and producer of a list of notable film and TV series including The Usual Suspects (1995) and X-Men (2000) currently resides in Los Angeles, USA and is father to his son Dashiell, born 2015. Other than his lifelong passion to make movies which began at the early age of just 16, Singer has developed an interest in a number of areas. He even brings some of his passions into his filmography. We have seen this in his direction of Valkyrie, a WWII thriller based on a plot to overthrow Nazi Germany. Singer has a keen interest in history and a number of his films have been based on real life events, bringing these stories to our screens. Singer is also an aviation fanatic, again Singer brings this to his films, during the filming of Valkyrie he did stunt flights in an P-51 Mustang with Tom Cruise, what better way to get the information needed for the film than to experience it himself. In his private life, he continues to support and involve himself in aviat...

Byran Singer: Great moments

  We go back to where it all began for  Bryan Singer  for his directional debut nearly two whole decades ago. The Usual Suspects (1995) was the neo-noir crime thriller that even began accumulating cult status before it hit VCR. It was on home video that fans could watch and re-watch the clues, heists and tricks which have earnt it a permanent place in the pop culture canon. The plot follows five men who concoct a robbery whilst in a New York jail line-up for suspected hi-jacking (the usual suspects); Gabriel Byrne, Stephen Baldwin, Kevin Pollak, Benicio Del Toro and Kevin Spacey. The job doesn’t just go awry- I spins out of control in perhaps the finest example of misdirection ever committed to film. It remains one of the most original and intelligent thrillers of all time where the jaw-dropping finale turns the entire movie on its head with countless tiny clues hidden within plain view throughout the masterpiece. The film was shot in just 35 days and directed by  Si...

Apocalypse Now: Bryan Singer’s New “X-Men” Movie

Image
  The definition of “apocalypse,” in Merriam-Webster, goes as follows: “A great disaster: a sudden and very bad event that causes much fear, loss or destruction.” Talk about concise. Someone at Fox should have pasted those words across the poster for “X-Men: Apocalypse,” which opens today in just about every cinema that you can think of. The first great disaster, in  Bryan Singer ’s film, is the sound that issues from James McAvoy whenever he opens his mouth. He plays Professor Charles Xavier, or Professor X, who runs a school for gifted children in upstate New York, and whose mountainous intellect is demonstrated first by a British accent and second, toward the end of the film, by an utter loss of hair. Both of these are cinematic customs of long standing, but does anyone still believe in them? Are there not clever and richly coiffed citizens of many lands? The problem is heightened, in McAvoy’s case, by the fact that he is a proud Scot, and I suspect that to be forced south ...
