I do love the DAF score, especially the examples given above. Back in the pre-VCR days, I would listen to my uncle's 8-track of the film and it just conjured up a really exciting way of thinking about the film and proves how valuable he was to the f…

I go to James Bond movies because of, well, James Bond. It used to be the visits to Q and Felix popping up were added highlights. But I sure didn't miss Q or Moneypenny in CR or QoS and I wouldn't miss them in future films. It reminds me of sever…

MajorDSmythe, your dog's in that photo looks a lot like ours shortly before she passed in late March, so I can identify with what you're going through. Our Sophie was aging, been with us since 2008, but she had congestive heart failure and would …

The Internet is so much fun with sites like that. Where to start? The writer claims MR and DAD were among the worst received films in the series, but doesn't bother to clarify whether he's referring to critical and fan reaction or to box office. …

The Waltz Blofeld is an interesting case, isn't it? You have the most iconic Bond villain who really hadn't been portrayed to his potential in the film series. So they get him back, which was intriguing. You've then got Waltz, the actor who set t…

It's interesting: Although TND is a basic Bond has to stop megalomaniac to avert WWIII scenario, it moves so fast and has fun action sequences it makes up for that, whereas TWINE tries to do something fresh in its story approach but ends up missing …

I like all Bond films too. But having ones we like more than others is just natural. I get a giddy pleasure out of my favorites so many years later after first seeing them and still try to muster up that feel for those I don't have as much enthusias…

Sad to hear of his passing. Were there any extensive Neil Connery interviews? I'd be curious as to his perspective of the whirlwind his brother was caught up in during the Bondmania years. But I'd also not be surprised to hear Sean would've frowned …

Nice review. While it was a huge hit upon release, I've often wondered how much more positively received TSWLM would have been had Star Wars not been released before it in the summer of 1977.
