  • Finished up my year long Bondathon of the entire franchise with Spectre last night. My opinion on this one hasnt really changed,its a pretty good film until we get to Brofelds lair and the film derails completley leading to a very dull climax in …
  • Saw Wonder Woman 1984 last night in the cinema and really enjoyed it.The first trailer for NTTD came on before and instead of saying that it was coming out in April next year,it simply said '' Coming soon ''.Hmm..

  • I really like Casino Royale.My only real issue with it is that Craig is my least favourite Bond and the character of Vesper Lynd is not very sympathetic ( Even though i love the actress ).
  • Yeah the focus on M is one of the reasons i dont rate SF.I feel no sympathy for her as shes shown to be grossly incompetent throughout the film.When she died i felt nothing but relief that she was gone and glad that we got Ralph Fiennes as the new M.
  • Completely disagreed with Mark Kermode on Skyfall,but 100% agreed with him on QOS... [url="[youtube] '' High school musical 3 is a better film! ''

  • ( Looks at the last two pages of a Skyfall thread,finds that most of the discussion is about DAF,DAD,and GE ).

  • Big NO from me for Terry returning for LTK.He was way too wooden and Hedison was by far the best Felix Leiter of the entire series.
