  • Yes I assume YOLT too, though if they finally dropped in FYEO, I’d be just as happy.
  • I held off the first couple years these came out because of the price.... once I bit the bullet I’ve never regretted it. I love the books (Fleming) so much, to get them in nice hard back with beautiful illustrations, I figure it’s a once in lifetim…

  • I’ve never seen 50% so I wouldn’t hope for that... I have seen down like $10 a piece, but it’s been a long time since they did that. They did occasionally use to do free shipping after so much spent, which ends up being a very good savings if you’re…
  • MGM is selling... it could get picked up by someone tied to streaming platform. There’s no way they’re going to push to Nov with MI7. They can push to late summer/early Fall just as easily.
  • I’ve been watching his movies all month... nice to see ones always meant to watch but never got round to: the Molly Maguires, the Anderson Tapes, Great Train Robbery, Highlander.
  • To follow MI7' s Nov 21 release? Not going to happen

  • Except for the production hell that was NTTD that made us wait before Covid came along
  • They can’t do November 2021... that’s already taken by next Mission Impossible movie and they won’t go head to head with it. and they would be foolish to go a few months after it, so it would need to be late summer or early fall 2021, when/if they d…
  • Th first was watchable, not particularly good. The second I couldn't get through. The writing is bad... agree, no plan. Someone needs to sit JK down... first, you're successful, not omnipotent, stop sharing your opinions on things you don't need to.…

  • We're all just passing through and he made it to 90 and had a great life... we still have his movies to enjoy... still, it's sad to see an era fade and pass, he was such an icon.

  • I agree Moore isn’t given credit for his darker moments as Bond and would often act in Fleming character, but his MO or comfort zone was smirky glib charm in films that were often pastiche. You can also question how credible he was in Fleming charac…
  • Oh very cool.... it would be great if we could buy prints of her Bond work
  • I’m confused... isn’t this Kewber Baal art?
  • Waiting for the tea leaves to tell them what to do after the dust has settled from NTTD and some time has passed.. Jesus, just sell it to someone else already eon.
  • Fay Dalton’s artwork is the reason to buy these well made, (but not quite perfect) books... her work is worthy of Fleming. Can’t give higher praise than that. Now if you look at the artwork and don’t really care, than I would say it’s not worth the …
  • Christmas has indeed come early... OHMSS AND Jurrasic Park... https://www.foliosociety.com/usa/jurassic-park.html
  • Worth the investment: https://www.foliosociety.com/usa/jurassic-park.html
  • @Univex They’re all good... the only one I was a little disappointed with was TB, but that’s being nit picky, it’s still good. I’d recommend picking your favorite book
  • 😍 They have a leak in their pipeline.
  • Mulan is not a good barometer at all. They offered it to people at $30 who were paying already monthly for Disney + and telling them it will be free to watch in December anyway
  • Fifth from the top... it has to be either FYEO or OHMSS. Given the new movies have Spectre and Blofeld you think they would attempt some tie in for media sake, but I don’t think they’ve capitalized on that in past... not the way they’ve done with Du…
  • Spielberg said he would have cast Humphrey Bogart as Indiana Jones in another era... that’s the correct choice. They need to cast the role from the inside out, not the other way around.... then you end up a Chris Pratt.
  • Eventually, as they keep making movies currently, they will have to release things on VOD just because they’re won’t be room on the release schedule. Also, if NTTD pushes back again they’ll be getting closer and closer to MI7, and I’m sure they d…
