Yeah, count me in there too. Got more books than I can read, but it's great knowing they are there when I want to read them. I always say there's a lotta' worse ways I could spend money. I'm on the web all the time too if that counts, catching up…

I love the scene, probably the highlight of QoS for me. Part of why was on first viewing I wasn't expecting it they way it happened. I knew that set was coming from a segment on The Today Show while QoS was in production but wasn't sure how it would…

It's safe to say writing for women wasn't a strong point for Tom Mankiewicz. I too used to think Seymour's Solitare was one of the more attractive, better Bond girls in the series when I was young, but now I find her one of the least interesting …

I won't be buying any, but I will say these make sense as far as a tie-in product. At least we know the Bond of the novels and sometimes in the films smoked and carried a lighter although that habit is out of fashion these days. It beats those go…

I wasn't aware there was such a dedicated QoS contingent here. Good to know since I'm in that group and have been since '08 and never understood the venom it gets from some fans. No, it's not on the level of CR, but it has its own merits, many of…

Count me for the TWINE write-in vote. It was challenge enough prior to and after Elektra's death it's completely anti-climactic. There just doesn't seem as much on the line as with many of the others at that point. It's just like get it over already…

It was last month, but I caught TLD in 4k at a cinema. The sound was some of the best I've ever heard, was blown away by it, but the picture was actually disappointing, not any better than I've seen on Blu-ray. And this was a smaller screen, not a s…

Despite much comic interaction during the era, does anybody else appreciate the interactions Lee's M and Moore's Bond have in TSWLM and MR? I love the scene where M can't restrain his enthusiasm - "Well done, James" - when Bond Bond shows off in …

None of those scenes bother me in the least. It contributes to the mystique of Bond - in a villain's lair in an exotic location isolated with a group of beautiful girls with the suspense of his being discovered. Sure it picks up after his cover is b…

Eastwood and Jack Nicholson come to mind for the Pacino era. Yeah, Denzel would be interesting for modern. Not Pitt. Maybe Clooney. That film was probably Philip Seymour Hoffman's breakout role too, the first of many such dubious and somewhat …

Yeah, he is long in the tooth, about the same age Ford was when he did Last Crusade.

Interesting call on Farrell. I always liked him and think Phone Booth is an underrated picture of his.

That Ready Player One does look pretty dire. The only point of interest is one of the locations is Columbus, Ohio, which isn't far from where I live. As for Indy V, if they can find a proper way to send Ford out in style, I'm interested. I just d…

So this is what the success of Wonder Woman hath wrought. I could see this as a television or Netflix project but the big screen? Batgirl just doesn't have enough power to make this worthy of a Whedon. If you thought this was a bad year for the b…

The thing I like about the Dalton films is he's fascinating to watch. I just checked out TLD on the big screen and his performance is full of looks and facial expressions that more than make up for the lack of zing in one-liners from a raised eyebro…

Just as annoying to me in that SP plane rescue sequence is given the circumstances, just when did Bond have the time and means to come up with the aircraft given the abruptness at which Swann is kidnapped? Did he fly it there originally or just find…

This comment - All the earlier efforts were, with due respect, vehicles for action sequences, there was little to nothing dynamic about their cinematography otherwise, and even the action sequences were more dazzling for their production design than…

I'm still getting used to (American) football being back. I'll give it a little time to build my enthusiasm for the NHL's return.
