  • I'm wondering what people think... with Daniel set to quit the role probably after Bond 25, do we think Ms. Lynch will be taking over the role of 007 in future entries? It would be the perfect opportunity for them to do something like that, and in 2…
  • "Fallen Kingdom" makes it sound cartoony to me, but that's just my opinion. I still look forward to it, and I can understand why they went with the Jurassic "World" brand, since the previous one with that name became the 4th highest grossing film of…

  • My preference would be a subtle reference to Moore at sometime during the course of the film... not at the credits or pre-credits. And not a blatantly obvious nod, just something subtle that only a rewatch or a hardcore fan will notice.
  • Still feeling very sad over Roger's death - I'm very glad to have a place to come and have others share in our mutual feelings of respect and despair over his loss. I was just thinking back to that rumor going around during the 50th Anniversary o…
  • Not sure if this has been posted yet, but here are the various reactions to his death from other Bond actors: Connery: I was very sad to hear of Roger’s passing. We had an unusually long relationship by Hollywood standards that was filled with …
  • Great Twitter stories about Sir Roger, brought a tear to my eye. He must have felt like a sort of Santa Claus when he was around kids who recognized him.
  • No! Oh my God this is devastating news, was it even public that he had cancer? Very saddened today by the loss of one of the nicest most humble and genuine men ever.
  • I'm pretty sure that in 2002 when DAD came out, people would have laughed at you for placing it last too... because the mentality of a Bond forum is always going to be in support of the newest Bond flick. I think you were treated unfairly Birdleson,…
  • For me, he's my second-least favorite Blofeld actor so far, just above 1981's cameo. He didn't convince me as Blofeld, even allowing for a non-traditional interpretation of the character. He just seemed like Christoph Waltz being Christoph Waltz, I'…
  • At this point I think Craig himself is growing weary of the role, and it really began to show in Spectre and even Skyfall. He doesn't identify with the character (which is fine), but now also it seems his tenure has lost its way and is no longer the…
  • I think Brosnan nailed the suave sophisticated aspect of the traditional Bond film persona perfectly, and I grew up on his movies and games... but overall his films fall short. I think both GE and TWINE are pretty good flicks (TWINE is underrated IM…
  • If you think these are the worst Bond girls ever, you might need to try actually watching the rest of the Bond movies.
  • I've just seen Spectre (I know, not very becoming of my username), and here is where I place it for now in my updated list: 1. On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969) 2. From Russia with Love (1963) 3. Dr. No (1962) 4. Casino Royale (2006) 5. …
  • If could have worked, but we'll never know. Would have helped make Bond feel more of a ruthless spy who has to kill the only person he really loves in his life for his job.
  • On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969) From Russia with Love (1963) Dr. No (1962) Casino Royale (2006) The Spy Who Loved Me (1977) Goldfinger (1964) License to Kill (1989) GoldenEye (1995) Thunderball (1965) The World Is Not Enough (1999) …
  • Nice to see it back where it belongs, but you can tell it almost pained them to do it. Almost like they just knew they HAD to do it or fans would freak out. You can tell by the way they don't even follow through with the part where it "dances around…
  • Gotta love the homage to the "No, Mister Bond, I expect you to die" line.
  • Gotta love all the people screaming "homophobia" to critics of this theme on IMDB/Twitter/etc... that's a low blow. People disliked the QOS theme as well, this has nothing to do with the sexuality of the singer.
  • The vocals are definitely the worst part about it — sorry Sam. I wish they'd gotten someone else for it.
  • Definitely a grower. Had to listen to it several times before deciding that I in fact liked it. Reminds me a lot of The World Is Not Enough, actually. The falsetto is a bit jarring and overdone, but not enough to ruin it. Definitely not among …
  • Oh my farking GOD that trailer was amazing!! I haven't posted here in ages but this prompted me to come back just to add my immense approval of this excellent trailer. The OHMSS music, WOW!!!!
  • Update because I was bored: 1. From Russia With Love 2. On Her Majesty's Secret Service 3. Dr. No 4. Casino Royale 5. Goldfinger 6. Thunderball 7. License to Kill 8. The Spy Who Loved Me 9. You Only Live Twice 10. GoldenEye 11. Skyfall …
  • Christ, even Bond fans are becoming politically correct wankers now? Or is this a joke thread? :-w
  • Very sad news, my condolences to the Brosnan family. I can't imagine losing my wife and then daughter to the same ruthless disease.
