I agree the Holly character is badly written, but Lois Chiles wasn't hired for her acting ability and she's on par with Barbara Bach which isn't surprising since MR is in many ways just a copy of TSWLM. She consistently gives some of the flattest…

Wood had a style that worked and was different from the films they came from, so I'd have definitely been in favor of his doing more, especially further adaptations of the films. As a teen Bond fan, his adaptations went down easier than some of Flem…

TND is my favorite Brosnan era film and part of that comes from it having the least emphasis on the personal aspects that became a part of every Bond film since LTK and often weighed them down. The Paris thing is introduced, dealt with and Bond move…

Sean was like Lazenby at Piz Gloria during the filming of DAF. He was always surrounded by the ladies.

On a Bond Facebook group I'm in, lately people have been discussing Christmas Jones and a couple dared to say she's "great" and I've countered by how unnecessary she was. Elecktra should've been not just the villain, but main Bond woman and I pointe…

Couldn't resist picking up a sealed version of The Goldfinger Files for about a third of the price it's going for on Amazon. When I first heard about it, I wasn't expecting much as it just focused on a week of filming the Aston Martin following Gold…

This thread reminds me of a comparison done on some special focusing on Bond in the late '80s or so that contrasted the Connery and Moore takes on Bond. They brought up that in the early films, Connery's Bond could sometimes be found alone, drinking…

So has Tanya Gold done any other prophetic articles in the past 18 years since this? She wrongly mentions there being only 2 Austin Powers movies and by 2005, that series had run its course. We should start a thread collecting all the articles pr…

Is it really Connery's effort or is it Roald Dahl's YOLT script that led to his less-than-compelling performance? You can tell the film suffers from not having Richard Maibaum involved for the first time in the series to this point and Dahl having a…

I find it amusing that 52 years ago, a small paper put in John Gavin as Bond, which was likely met with a lot of disbelief and derision but turned out to be true. These days, any paper will put anything in regarding who could be Bond and some people…

I appreciate the feedback, guys. I noticed during Black Friday sales, which are fewer at stores these days, that 4K discs were on par price-wise. I wouldn't mind having films with serious visual appeal like the Top Guns and heard 2001: A Space Odyss…

I don't think Eon got the memo from Variety claiming a shorter shooting schedule and budget considering the next two films. Maybe by 1971.
