For those of us trying to stay spoiler-free, did anybody else get surprised by the main news on the Mi6 landing page when coming here? I did, not that it would've been a super well-kept secret anyway, but still.

Any link to that 1966 article on when the will the spy bubble burst? You don't get to see a lot of stories on that from back then. I always thought the premiere of the Batman TV series kind of took some of the attention away.

I want to express appreciation for this thread to RichardTheBruce and whoever else contributes to it, particularly in regards to posters for films released in various countries. I have at least 3 books covering Bond posters and yet I continually …

Looking back at some of the '79 reviews, I was surprised that MR had a pretty good reaction. As late as FYEO, there was a review that said it wasn't the best film and that was a choice between GF and MR, so it's reputation must not have been that ba…

1) When did you first see Dr. No? In the theater, on TV, at a special retrospective ... and has your opinion of it changed over time? Not sure exactly when, but it would've been during one of the early 1970s theatrical rereleases here in the U.S…

While the interactions with Bond and MP in Dalton's films aren't particularly memorable they're also not cringe-inducing like the sexist, misogynist dinosaur speech. Not to mention the Brosnan-Samantha Bond MP byplay is nothing more than smut talk a…

Now we know George Lucas nicked Princess Leia's Star Wars hairstyle from one of the Angels of Death.

The Goldfinger script seems almost like a continuity script with everything exactly as it is in the final film, right down to having Bond will return in Thunderball. Didn't it originally read in On Her Majesty's Secret Service and changed later?

B25 is a long ways off, so we've got the time. Hope your dog gets better. One of mine was ill recently and that was tough on my family.

There is indeed a tonal difference between the creatures in SW and ROTJ. In the first film it was all new and welcome. In ROTJ it just seemed like overload. When Luke, Obi Wan and the droids go into the bar, you can't tell for sure which are dang…

It's funny when you look back at those films when they were first released and then later on. When I first saw TOD, I thought it was better than Raiders. I don't think I saw it again until it came to pay cable, but you can get that exhilaration some…

I look forward to this as well. I enjoy hearing others' stories about seeing these films and how they felt at the time and would like to share mine as well. It's really like looking back at our lives, so there's that as well.

Short Round I can deal with, but as long as ToD has Willie Scott then it will always be pulled down below Raiders and Last Crusade for me just on her presence. While they didn't need to have another Marion type, why did they need to go the comple…

I was reading Esquire's ranking of all the Bond villains - definitely worth a read - and they have photos of each villain. When it got to Morzeny from FRWL, it had a picture of him taking Klebb on the tour of SPECTRE Island and it's a close-up from …

I will echo what others have said in this is a thoughtful post worthy of discussion. I like the Craig Bond and most of the direction of the series in his era although I find SF wildly overrated and SP less and less interesting each time I watch, …

The way I always understood it was that they were trying to tell people it's still part of the same universe, same character, just a different guy playing the role. Since OHMSS calls back to YOLT, it kind of had to make references to Blofeld and SPE…

If I remember correctly, Last Crusade was the movie that kicked off the blockbuster summer movie season in '89, a big season for films that year. Memorial Day weekend was the official start back then instead of April, where it's been moved up to now…

I can't hate on the Boston/NE teams and fans for their successes. I root for Ohio teams and the Blue Jackets have given me at least some excitement. Personally, I'm more tired of the GS Warriors in the NBA finals all the time. They remind me of t…

In response to the original question, I've never watched a John Wick film, so there's no question I'd rather watch MI, especially considering I look forward to MI films as much as if not more than Bond these days, although I didn't rate Fallout that…

I don't see that TLD loses that much momentum. I feel that way with about pretty much the majority of Bond films where the ending just doesn't match up to what's gone before it. TLD feels refreshing that it's not the fate of the world on the line, t…

Glen was hired because of his success with the popular pre-credits and second unit action sequences the previous two films. With the emphasis on gadgets downplayed, Eon chose to focus more on the stunts and Glen fit that bill perfectly for them in 1…
