Hi Jay,
Everything okay with you? I've been hoping to see your input re: NTTD on the SirHenry's Originals thread...but nothing is up so far! I trust all is well & you're maybe just tired of talking about this flick for the time being! I understand you didn't like it as well as 4EverBonded & I did, and that's cool -- I/we just want to hear your take.
Take care & stay well, be seeing you...
Bryan

Actually, FRWL has always been my #1 and GF my #2. For the purposes of this marathon, GF edged out FRWL slightly....probably because GF has so many iconic moments, from the Shirley Bassey theme song to the Golden Girl; from Q getting huffy with Bon…

Yes, Al has written all kinds of stuff. Mostly mystery novels and some comics, including Road To Perdition, which was made into a movie featuring Tom Hanks, Paul Newman and (wait for it...) Daniel Craig.

I just finished Target Lancer by Max Allan Collins, another in the series of Nate Heller novels. Heller is a Chicago-based private eye whose cases invariably involve him in the (meticulously researched) lives & times of famous folk like FDR, El…

What to do after this Bondathon? One COULD watch other stuff of course (and of course, I will) -- but for those of us who, unlike @Birdleson, aren't burned out on Bond yet: what to watch next? I suggest re-watching in order of our rankings, in ord…

I don't know if anyone's seen/posted this from elsewhere -- but here's an interview with Kieron Gillen re: SERVICE. http://comicsalliance.com/kieron-gillen-james-bond-interview/

Sorry I've had to slack off a bit on my participation as we've reached the finish line...but let the record show I made it to the end. MY FINAL STANDINGS 1) Goldfinger 2) From Russia With Love 3) Casino Royale 4) On Her Majesty’s Secret Servi…

@Birdleson & I recently (well, within the last six months or so -- he got through it faster than I did!) completed a Bondathon consisted of reading the Fleming novels in order & posting our reports in the SirHenry's thread. I hadn't mention…

I found Spectre to be much along the lines of DAD or TWINE: a significant fraction of a really good Bond film with a smaller fraction in the realm of "Why the Hell Did They Do THAT???" The Mexico City PTS is just great, the funeral and Bond's sce…

It looks like this thread is awful eager to finish up with Skyfall & get on to Spectre. Let me just say: I love Skyfall and am only lukewarm re: Spectre. The visuals on Skyfall are just gorgeous and the storyline is quite interesting; this m…

Sorry I haven't been able to post a full review of QoS, personal/technological issues are interfering right now. I'm not as big a fan of QoS as some here -- the shaky cam really bothers me. Fields is great, Mathis is wonderful and disposed of of t…

It’s been great to see so much well considered discussion of Casino Royale this week. The film deserves no less. This is unquestionably the best Bond film since the early, glory days of Connery and Young; moreover, it’s the “first” Bond story that…

Good grief! Best of luck in the new place.

Great posts, everybody! I especially liked you CR '54 review, @Birdleson. I'll have my own review up before too much longer...but you'll all been so extensive in your comments I'm not sure how more there is to say, other than to put it this simply…

That's fine, I know them all pretty well. Five to introduce a newbie to: GF, FRWL, TSWLM, GE, CR. I like the idea of trying to show off the variety of Bond interpretations. OHMSS just isn't a good choice for a first timer. Two Connery films…

I think Brosnan is too hard on himself. He was a fine Bond for the time and material he was given. He's the only Bond actor who was never given a Fleming story of his own to flesh out. He did very well with much of GE and absolutely nailed his sc…

These suggestions are all too modern and too film-centric. Literary Dr. No is buried under a mountain of bird dung. Pretty stinky way to go if you ask me,,,

I learned Roman numerals in elementary school. Are they really that obscure? In my first viewing, I certainly made the C, U, etc. conclusion as one possibility, and the Roman numeral conclusion as another. The controversy continues...
