I have a feeling the film will be really good and a must see on the big screen...but it’s gonna flop and flop hard due to being a hard sell with young audiences with low attention spans,the pandemic and the day and date release on HBO MAX.

I’m just hoping they don’t pull a Masters Of The Universe and kill off Bond in the first half hour and have the rest of the film be about the strong liberated no nonsense female character.

I think the money was long gone by the time Bond caught up with White at the end. It’s strange how the two films in the Craig era that gets the most praise ( CR and SF ) both end with him failing the mission but he acts like he’s triumphant in th…

I think Sam Mendes was still a critical darling at the time and the idea of criticising the film in the English press was just not going to happen.Mark Kermodes head was so up Mendes arse in his review “ THIS IS GREAT! THIS IS GREAT! “

1983- Superman 3 is released.Critical reaction: “ What’s with all the stupid childish jokes? Why can’t they take the character of Superman seriously? “ 2013- Man Of Steel is released.Critical reaction: “ Where are the jokes? Why are they taking S…

There was no “ Battle/race “ between OP and NSNA in 1983. I think that’s something the media played up as it made great headlines.And Rog did not “ see off “ Sean and his film that year.This would only have been true had both movies opened on the…

I actually think the M and Bond scene in the hotel is ridiculous.First she has Bond taken into custody and says “When you don’t know who to trust it’s time to go “. About 30 seconds later when Bond beats up the other agents and escapes she says “…

I love the Kung fu school scene in TMWTGG.I think it’s hilarious,Especially when Bond kicks his first opponent in the face as they are bowing.Then as the next guy bows he’s careful to look Bond straight in the eye as he’s doing it 😅
