  • The Specialist is one of my secret film score darlings. I paid a lot of good money to own the CD. The romantic motif in the film, which Barry "jazzified" to maximum effect, is something I love to play in my car while driving home, late at night...

  • Perfect choice. TB is one of the greats for me. From the slightly mysterious underwater cues to the spectacular action beats, this score has it all. Can't wait.

  • I think we’re really just debating the flavour of the word childish. To me, appealing to children and childish are not the same. Childish is almost always used as an insult. Saying someone is acting childishly usually means they’re showing the kind …

  • Hi, @Jedothek. Welcome to the forum. In order to keep the forum tidy, we prefer not to start a new thread for each question related to Bond. Instead, we collect them all here: https://www.mi6community.com/discussion/2843/the-james-bond-questions…

    in Is James Bond just childish? Comment by DarthDimi August 29
  • I think of Bond as a glorious heap of exhilarating nonsense for adults and for schoolboys desperate to be grown up (despite Fleming’s denials). Even the most “serious” Bond outings are essentially escapist fantasies, reducing the mess of real-world …

  • Despite severe series fatigue, I guess I will check this series out when it drops. But I'm not sure how long I can keep up with these miniseries.

  • Some of these B-day celebrations are straying very far from the world of cinema. I still had to look up Shawn Michaels, only to arrive at the wikipage of a wrestler. But I guess he did appear in films, so I retract my complaints. ;-) And yes, Sea…

  • Keep Halle, but A) change the haircut. The short hair doesn't work. B) tell her to act the way she feels is right. And allow her to not speak certain lines. Yo momma.
    in Would you rather a John Gavin DAF OR a James Brolin OP? Comment by DarthDimi August 22
  • I ranked Craig high up there. He's a wonderful Bond, arguably the best we've ever had in many ways. He's always given tremendous performances; he's always been committed. Even when a couple of minors with a computer started to personally attack the …

  • George fooled Cubby and Harry - he was an actor all right. Truth is, I like him as Bond. He was still very rough, sure, but he had room to improve in future films, and physically, he fit the role. I know it was his decision, but I wish he'd have …
