  • Yes, do tell @Risico007, if you desire. My grandmother who is now deceased along with the rest of my grandparents, told me a story about how she was sitting in the middle of a decent size park during the day. It is solely an open field with noth…

  • That must be it. Original post edited.
  • Oh, whoever it is then. I don't know why I said Sony. LOL
  • Agent007391 wrote: Bounine, why did you double post? Anyway, you called the film "Man of Steel: Batman Vs. Superman". Why does "Man of Steel" have to be in the title? I don't see any reason for "Man of Steel" to be in the title in anyway, even …

  • "Great choice for Batman and will be just as good if not better than prima donna Bale with the stupid voice." I remember listening to that recording of him freaking out back in 08 or 09. Some guy had distracted him and he really got his knickers…

  • Ioan Gruffudd may have made a good Bond but he's 40 now: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ioan_Gruffudd I think that Jonathan Rhys Meyers would be good but he's 36 now. He'll probably be too old as well by the time Craig steps down. http://en.…
  • Anyway, in terms of appearance, the Blofeld of the books is different to that of his cinematic counterpart. In Thunderball he has a black crew-cut. In OHMSS he has long silver hair. If Eon bring him back they could go by these descriptions. I fe…
  • Since they have established QUANTUM, I do think that they should be back for Bond 24 or/and Bond 25. They should appear in at least one more film. The other question is, should Quantum be destroyed by Daniel Craig's Bond and end with his error or c…

  • Yeah, the ending was a bit of an anti climax and I would have preferred Bond to have driven a Bentley, an Aston Martin or a Jaguar. Pretty good Bond novel on the whole though. My mother liked it too and she's not much of a fan of Carte Blanche. :)
