Is this franchise dead yet? I heard Warner Bros. were going to see how this one did before going ahead with the next ones. I mean, they've always been hit or miss critically and they're not the money makers Harry Potter was. I don't think it's ev…

The monologue is so good. It reminded me of Darren Aronsofsky's script for Batman: Year One which he wrote in the early 2000s and depicts a more mentally unstable Bruce Wayne. I even questioned whether it was Batman or someone like Riddler when I fi…

To be honest, as cool as Cruise's stunts are, I feel the fact that audiences are hyper aware that he does them himself outshines the actual films, which I personally find a bit hit or miss. I remember watching an interview where Timothy Dalton ta…

@0BradyM0Bondfanatic7 Dubai's an odd, albeit interesting location. I actually lived there for a time. It's very much over the top modernisation encapsulated - lots of large buildings constantly being made, many of which are tacky (the Burj Khalifa i…

I agree that Brosnan's performance in TWINE is very soap opera-ish. The film's a mess for me too. If anything his most Fleming-esque moments are probably either when he meets with Paris in the hotel room in TND (always liked the dialogue during that…

@0BradyM0Bondfanatic7 I think one of the problems was that the Tanner of the Craig era was, in fact, meant to be a different character entirely and that's Villers as you mentioned. I don't know why the actor never came back and was replaced by Kinne…
