Echo Chamber - 208
We're bringing you another solid EchoChamberFP episode this week!
There's a couple of sequels, one new from Signature Entertainment, one a DC Comics caper. THEN, we have two new Netflix jams, and both are book adaptations!
'Fortress: Sniper's Eye' is directed by Josh Sternfeld and written by Alan Horsnail. Weeks after the deadly assault on Fortress Camp, Robert (Bruce Willis) makes a daring rescue to save Sasha (Natali Yura), the widow of his old nemesis Balzary (Chad Michael Murray). But back in the camp’s command bunker, it appears Sasha may have devious plans of her own. As a new attack breaks out, Robert is confronted with a familiar face he thought he’d never see again.
'Birds of Prey' is directed by Cathy Yan and written by Christina Hodson. The film follows Harley Quinn (Margot Robbie), who, after breaking up with the Joker, is threatened by Gotham City crime lord Roman Sionis (Ewan McGregor), and joins forces with Helena Bertinelli (Mary Elizabeth Winstead), Dinah Lance (Jurnee Smollett) and Renee Montoya (Rosie Perez) (who go on to form the Birds of Prey) to save Cassandra Cain (Ella Jay Basco).
'Hello, Goodbye, and Everything in Between' is the feature directorial debut from Michael Lewen and written by Amy Reed & Ben York Jones. It's adapted from Jennifer E. Smith's book of the same name. Claire (Talia Ryder) and Aidan (Jordan Fisher) on one last epic date, relive the stages of their relationship by revisiting key places as they ask: make it work or break up forever?
Carrie Cracknell, Ron Bass and Alice Victoria Winslow bring their take on 'Persuasion', Jane Austen's last book, to the big screen! Living with her snobby family on the brink of bankruptcy, Anne Elliot (Dakota Johnson) is an unconforming woman with modern sensibilities. When Fredrick Wentworth (Cosmo Jarvis) the dashing one she once sent away crashes back into her life, Anne must choose between putting the past behind her or listening to her heart when it comes to second chances.
