  • I must say I'm pretty excited to see MI4. Trailer looks solid, could be 3 great action flicks within within a very short time, MI4, Bourne4, Bond23, and then the Hobbit!
  • Just finished season 1 of Entourage... A very good show. I really love Jeremy Piven and Kevin Dillon !! It is the first time I watch this show... great show !! It gets a whole lot better with these two, but sucks completely starting at season 7. G…
  • I think this now my be below Die Another Day for me in position 23/22. X_X Nonsense! NSNA didn't rape the franchise!
  • It's crushing to see Kara not make it. But at least there is a representative of the Dalton era present. Indeed, I like Kara, but Pam's smile is worth a million bucks!
  • j7, please try using decent titles to your topics so people can at least know what it's about.
  • OSS was born in the late 40s by author Jean Bruce, well before Bond was born. The first few flicks date from the late 50s, again, before the first Bonds. There's no question Fleming's agent was more interesting and better written in my opinion, but …
  • .....I meant that Daniel Craig was single when he started out as James Bond...that's all....all the other Bonds "are" married but he was the new one and he was "single"....I like the real thing....but then .... "whats real".......dont have a cow li…
  • OK, in all seriousness, Rush isn't classic rock, it's progressive rock. It's still rock, and well quite good really. If you can't stand Lee, just listen to YYZ, he won't bother you ;)

  • No wonder Miss Andrea Aunders needed elsewhere for fulfillment, Scaramanga preferred them short and dressed very risqué undergarments.
  • A pretty strong powerhouse, perhaps a bit of a surprise entry with Corrine, we'll see if she can have a favourable matchup if one is possible! I sense that the next round will be very cruel with the possibility of Fiona vs. Honey or Travy. Ouch!
  • Banco à Bangkok pour OSS 117 (1964) Directed again by André Hunebelle and starring Kerwin Mathews as OSS for their second outing, Banco à Bangkok brings more action, more suspense, and more colors. The second outing being shot in colors, the beauti…
  • Tracy in a tough matchup!
  • OSS 117 Se Déchaîne (1963) Long before Ian Fleming had ever thought of James Bond, Jean Bruce put pen to paper and invented spy hero OSS 117, his name: Hubert Bonisseur de la Bath, an American spy of French aristocratic origins who's parents immigra…
  • This isn't a problem as long as they mainly remain true to Bond's nature and satisfactory to their core audience. Hmm, I think neither was the case with CR, yet it was a massive hit. If Bourne inspires Bond to a new perspective at action sequenc…

  • but the fact remains that I want Bond to remain believable, and we can thank MI, Bourne, 24, etc for that. Why? Has Babs and Mickey come out and said they were influenced by Bourne? Wheres the evidence? That a few Bourne editors and directors we…
  • Bond has always been an assassin. That's his main job. His missions were presented to the audience in a different form and dressed as escapism, but the fact of the matter is that he's an assassin. And quite frankly, I find it extremely refreshing t…
  • Happy birthday to one of the greatest villains in the Bond series - Robert Davi!
  • All I'll say is that regardless of Bourne's identification as a non-spy or not, the series is far superior to at least 50 to 60% of all Bond flicks. I'd say the same about MI. Having solid competition is a great thing when producers are forced to ma…
  • Domino. Good bye Natalya, it was a nice ride for you, but your time is over ;)
  • You may be on to something there steve, the main market to convince is always the US when it comes to Bond, the International market does better. Looking at those numbers, Babs & Mikey knew where to go. MI2 and Bourne has shown that the US publ…

  • Casino Royale has an old style elegance that Mr Damon and his bunch could not hope to match. That's because they are Bond movies, and the returning Martin Campbell which was already proven to provide such class and elegance. You know what Hollywo…

  • Has this ever been confirmed with Babs, Mickey G, Purvis and Wade that Bourne was an influence on the Craig era? Or is it just fan conjecture? There is no real evidence is there? If you don't believe there's any truth to the fact that the Bond f…

  • I'm glad you said that lechero, it'll be our little secret.
  • Pam evidently, in a matchup pinning beauty vs. the beast alien.
  • My favourite Bond movie... Certainly a fantastic effort by Moore in this one with memorable scenes like the kick to Locque's car. It is my favourite Moore flick, sitting somewhere in my mid top 10.
  • @Luds As if Brosnan didn't get big raises before... :-)) Even if he got what he wanted for B21, it would have been his smallest raise in all of his tenure. C'mon : Brosnan got 7 millions more in TND than in GE, so it's not like he didn't get big ra…
