  • I had adjusted my post and then lost half of it. These forums do strange things sometimes. I had also added that comedic isn't risky when comparing it to other Hollywood blockbusters. I get your point though. Just how much humour does this fil…

  • How successful Spectre will be remains to be seen but presuming it is, and I'm sure it will be, this is Bond afterall, I really don't think it would have been any less successful if it had have been darker like in the vein of CR and SF.
  • I don't think CR and SF are even that different. SF is a little darker and less formulaic but Mendes went wrong with the humour in parts. The humour in CR is more natural which is what I like when it comes to Craig. In SF, Mendes threw in more, l…
  • "...the competition so to speak are the superhero films which are heavily operatic and in many cases, action comedies." If this is the case, then it's a pity. I'm not really a fan of the Marvel films. It does sound like Batman v Superman will b…

  • The problem with the Brosnan films and it sounds like this could be the case with SPECTRE, is that they try to throw in too many of the Bond ingredients. I don't think there should be a single Bond film that has everything unless we have someone li…

  • Hurry up Royals! I want to go back to bed! Actually, I'm not even sure why I'm staying up for them. I feel like I should just watch the whole thing from start to finish.
  • Yeah, "you won't supposed to say the B word!" I love that they've been playing the Goldfinger music from Miami beach. Why is it that the Royals always take forever to arrive? I was at the QOS premiere and they took forever to get their arses …
