I wish I liked DAD more. It had the potential to be a decent send-off for Brosnan, but really drops the ball. The first half or so (maybe a little less) is mostly fine, with a couple really good moments sprinkled in (Bond's imprisonment and the swor…

Watched Dirty Rotten Scoundrels (1988) yesterday. One of my all-time favorite comedies; Michael Caine is particularly terrific in it.

Neil Peart died and the Ravens blew their best regular season first-thing playoffs. This decade already sucks!

Thanks for wasting a 14-2 season Ravens. Much appreciated.

GF over DAD QOS over AVTAK Very easy round for me

Just a few terrific Rush songs out of many I’ve listened to in honor of Neil Peart. I miss him so much already. Rush and Neil have an immovable, special place in my heart and have been there for me when I needed them the most as well as good times.
-
I had to listen to a lot of Rush today. Still so hard for me to process that Neil Peart is gone. My favorite drummer and lyricist ever, and an essential part of one of my absolute favorite bands. It’s such a huge loss. The music has been a huge part…

Oh my God. That’s horrible; I was just listening to Manhattan Project earlier today without knowing this was coming. I’m just devastated... heartbroken... RIP Neil. You were the greatest.

The faithful novel adaptations definitely wouldn’t happen as traditional films. They are expected to have more action than is in the novels, and certainly there’d have to be at least a couple actors to cover all the films for however long it would t…

It’s probably a long shot, but the best thing that could happen moving forward is getting super faithful adaptations of the Fleming novels set in the right time and everything. Imagine getting one perfect actor for it and them being able to do every…

If we get stuck on arcs + continued storylines from here on out my enthusiasm will die down quite a bit. SP’s biggest issue for me is trying to make the era have a continued storyline that didn’t really add up. NTTD is going to be a direct continuat…

Beyonce?! Wow I am surprised. She is one of the better pop singers out there today so on paper I’m okay with the choice.

@royale65 good read! DAF is tough for me and has been for a long time now. Along with DAD and SP they are the 3 Bond outings I find the least enjoyment in. The big highlights with DAF for me are Wint and Kidd and the Peter Franks fight. I’m not a fa…

Reading these novels for the first time last year was such a treat. Not sure when my first re-readings will happen, but here is my current ranking of the novels: 1. On Her Majesty's Secret Service 2. Dr. No 3. Moonraker 4. You Only Live Twice …

It's my least favorite of all the full-length Fleming Bond novels, but still superior to the film version in every way. It's good, but not near Fleming's best.
-
The thing that most bothers me about that line is just the fact that I'm tired of the theme of how outdated everything is related to MI6. SF, SP, and now NTTD all will have harped on that message. I liked it for SF, but it got old after the first ti…

@Thunderfinger Very well - thank you! DN, OHMSS, TMWTGG All of them have something in common, but that same element shows how one of them is different from the others.

I was thinking about White’s line “...the word of an assassin?!” before Madeleine on the train. If @Thunderfinger would like to come up with the next set I’d be more than happy to turn the floor over. I never could have gotten it without the “assass…
