You're not missing anything by the lack of season 1 episodes. It was more of a crime drama rather than a spy series then, solving blackmail and kind of petty criminal cases like that. The focus wasn't so much on Patrick Macnee's Steed but on Ian Hen…

I like the briefing scene in TB with the anonymous 00s - "Every 00 man in Europe has been called in." You see a guy with a beard and a woman among them. I've watched that scene and pondered what they were like and that's about all I really want from…

I appreciate this and will consider purchasing it, though the price is a little more than I'd want to pay. But why oh why can't it be one of the Barrys that was never given the SE treatment?
-
Yeah, I loved pretty much all his '80s roles and a lot of these are underrated films. I was like one of about 30 people who actually paid to see The Pope of Greenwich Village when it was released and even though it's kind of a Mean Streets lite it f…

I was a huge Mickey Rourke fan. He was my favorite actor in the mid-late '80s and early '90s, just the epitome of cool. I wasn't around for Dean and Brando in their primes and Rourke fit that for that era, at least for me.

As long as MI2 exists it will always be far weaker than any of the others in the series. No team element, yet another traitor/rogue agent and more of a Woo movie than MI, complete with the pigeons.

To weigh in on 3 recent subjects: -FYEO is a greatest hits package that's never registered high with me. MR actually made me the hardcore fan I am today and this was such a counter reaction that it's like non-stop action to distract from the unin…

I know the Rory Kinnear dislike here is pretty strong, but I don't see that as a viable way to allow Michael Kitchen any more credit. I said back in the day the character was a blank spot and hardly stood out. Tanner being Bond's closest friend in t…

Yeah, not sure why in a TB appreciation thread we need somebody's take on what's wrong with the film when I can read Brady's take giving me a different take on things I can enjoy about it. So that's the basic up and downsides to the World Wide Web.
-
Yeah, I agree with these takes too. There's an unevenness the last two films with the character that's undeniable and not as involving as CR and QoS. Still, Craig is always interesting to watch. I admit I'm quite nervous about his successor.

Good to know I'm not alone here. Some nights I sit and stare at the bookshelf where dozens of books I've never read awaiting and I just can't decide on one. I just have to be in a certain mood for certain titles. There's also piles of magazines I al…

Funny how perceptions change. When I was younger, FRWL was among the least of the Bonds films I was interested in and in the past few years it's the Bond that has risen the most. There's something still pure about the FRWL before GF set the templ…
