  • Personally, the choice of Denis Villeneuve doesn't make me feel particularly optimistic or pessimistic. I just don't know if I really love the idea of big-name directors consistently getting the gig now. From what I've seen he's obviously talented, …

  • @GoldenGun Interesting take on preferring the last third to the first one. For me, it's just consistently incredible start to finish, but I like your unique opinion on that. There's something else I really want to say on this thread, actually. I …

  • @GoldenGun Excellent writeups! We disagree on a lot of things, but it's nice to read a different perspective about some things and still see some common ground at the same time.
  • Since I see it often complained about, I might as well add on here that I love the sinking house sequence in CR. "Fall of a House in Venice" is one of my favorite tracks, I find the action really awesome - particularly the electrocution and nail gun…

  • Though it's somewhat subjective at times, I'm going to pick just one "main" henchperson from each film, with the exceptions of Wint & Kidd for DAF and Jaws representing both TSWLM and MR. 1. Oddjob 2. Donald "Red" Grant 3. Jaws 4. Irma Bun…
  • @GoldenGun I would say that I at least find some things to enjoy in all of them, but collectively speaking, my Bottom 5 definitely lean negative. MR is in a really weird spot in the sense that it's hard for me to have an overall negative view of …
  • @GoldenGun It's not a popular opinion, but I'm glad there's at least a couple of us! I really love its uniqueness within the series and earnestly do enjoy it a lot. This is a particularly tough list to make because I really like most of the scores, …

  • @DarthDimi Nice - honestly I could still understand why someone would pick DAD over TWINE. Have you ever done a ranking of all the films? I tried to look for one of yours in the main thread and couldn't find one.
  • I've had enough viewings of TND now to be convinced that the Brosnan era should be looked at as "half-good, half-bad" rather than "one-hit wonder." Of course, GE is the mostly universally beloved title, while the latter three are all pretty looked d…
