Right, that's what I thought about the transmitter. But the whole thing was for Silva to get caught anyway, so who knows, but it just adds to the puzzle of things that don't add up and why I think this film is so overrated. I've tried to give the…

-Small thing, but how about using CGI to edit out the gloves Craig or his double are wearing on the motorcycle chase. They appear and disappear and they never put any scene of him pulling them on. Strange in the modern era that such a thing is so ap…

First off, I disagree that QoS is the film everyone loves to hate as stated in the introduction. I've seen it gain momentum recently, evolving into one of the underrated films in the series by a lot of fans on these boards and polarizing would be a …

Cool link. I'm surprised nobody has written a detailed book about the history of the MI film series. I know commentaries on home video are considered the main sources, but they can only cover so much when there are multiple stories to be told about…

This discussion is interesting when you consider the MI TV series was a team of 5: A team leader, master of disguise, female distraction, a strongman and an electronics expert, operating on their own. The movie universe often combines these roles…

One small fix that would raise this already near-perfect Bond film for me: Have Arnold use more of Chris Cornell's fantastic title song more the way Barry did in his films. It's perfectly placed at the beginning African Rundown before deteriorating …

So, in other words, these are overqualified actors who have still done nothing to dim the memories of character actors who made the roles their own and continue to be beloved in them by the fan community and likely casual fans except in the mind of …

Is it strange that I haven't bothered to purchase Fallout when I did the previous 3 films the week they came out? For some reason it just seems priced higher than a lot of new blu releases and maybe it just didn't resonate with me enough on my theat…

I used to look forward to the office team scenes years ago. It was fun to anticipate where Q would pop up or where M and Bond would meet. Even if it was just in the office. My enthusiasm really waned with the Brosnan era when Dench's M was writte…

Given he's in all of 2 scenes, I don't get the John Terry hate. Sure, he's rather flat in his line delivery but at least he gives the rather throw-away role some believability. I can see him as a contemporary of Dalton Bond. Compare that to guys …

I don't know that I've converted anybody into becoming a Bond fan, but I've made friends bigger Bond fans due to my enthusiasm and made others more interested in the character. Except my own daughter, who really has never liked Bond but understands …

Serra's score has gotten more respect over recent years. While the Internet was in its infancy back when GE came out, I still recall how the score was the big complaint among what was otherwise a great reception for GE. People just weren't ready for…
