The film has moments, though let's be honest it's a load of crap.
In your opinion, sure. I mean you’re a BvS fan, you know tastes are eclectic.
I mean if you can’t even enjoy the Cuba sequence, sorry to hear!
Don't mention Tequilla 😂 Good stuff though I try to avoid it 😂
NTTD watching it again now, debating whether it falls into its that bad it's good territory like DAD and DAF.
And DAD don’t belong on the same sentence! The latter wishes it was as witty. ;)
Though, sounds like @Murdock would be game to pop on over so you can hate-watch it a sixth time if that’s how you both get your kicks. That’ll really stick it to Barbara Broccoli for taking your beloved toys away from you.
I'll never watch that trash movie again but I'll happily Joy-watch the likes of GoldenEye, Moonraker and Die Another Day any time. Those, I can enjoy.
Stop watching NTTD! Watch DAF! Defend that movie with me! We can raise a DAF army. There will be dozens of us!
😂 This is epic Bond...
But you did contribute. You gave it your time! You’ll never get it back! Babs won!
I spent my time making fun of it so I guess it ended in stalemate. Nobody won.
You'll have to forgive me. The tequila has lowered my inhibitions. ;)
Plus, I had nothing better to do. I had to truly know. My curiosity has been satisficed. I didn't like the movie but I'll get over it. I've suffered worse tragedies in my life.
Perfectly put. +1!
So you’re saying there are users that are defending the film at a “ridiculous and embarrassing level”..? Wasn’t your mantra to avoid categorizing opinions without judging them?
Anyway at least all the ridiculous “positive” ones you’re referring to actually saw the film.
Haha :))
I've seen many non-Bond films I've hated over the years and guess what, I never watch them again!
Yet we'll keep coming back for more when it comes to a Bond we don't care for very much. I really dislike DAF and AVTAK and DAD and still I repeatedly watch them when broadcast on TV. Sometimes I even CHOOSE to put the DVD on!
I guess what I'm getting at is Bond is special and possibly unique for many of us. Even the ones we rank low down we still get something from on some level. That's good, we all win, 25 times over and over and over...
I think there were some great Bond moments, but the romance/dad/death stuff certainly detracted from it being a good, fun, Bond experience. Oddly, whilst SP is the obviously lesser movie from a narrative point of view, I just know it'll have a re-watch score much higher than NTTD for me.
CR
SF
SP
QOS/NTTD
Were you watching it on 10x speed? You'd only seen it twice when you first posted, and now we're up to viewing five less than a couple of hours later. :))
Funny, the opposite was true for me. I struggled to process it when I first saw it, but I’ve enjoyed it more the more I’ve watched it, including my last viewing at home.
The main thing that improved for me on the small screen was the cinematography. Don’t know why, but it seemed a lot crisper? Maybe it’s just the cinema I saw it at, but on first viewing, it seemed almost video gamey to me at times, sort of plasticy? Which had me thinking there’d been too much CGI touch ups of certain shots. But when I watched it at home I didn’t get that vibe at all, I thought it looked great. Sound mixing seemed clearer too come to think of it, so maybe I do just need to find a new cinema.
20x Speed 😂 I watched it three times yesterday £15.99 for 48 hours you have to get your monies worth 😂
(P. S. My counting skills go awry when drinking a vodka martini)

One thing we can all agree with, Paloma was great.
Unfortunately, Moderator Dimi would rather defend his right to say the movie is awful ad infinitum, than give us the option to avoid having to see it repeatedly, because an ignore function has been deemed childish. Makes this place a haven for negative spam, just to irk those who actually appreciate the film.
It's really not that simple, so name dropping a mod like that is not very helpful either. Especially when, in this case, it's a mod who usually calls out negative spam themselves too.
Great point.
