I had a very positive experience with YOLT recently. What I found was that no matter how "holiday vignette" the film got, everything is held together by the inevitability of that Volcano climax. It's the one film where we see that lair way in advanc…

If only Bond could imbrace it's suspense and atmospheric roots rather than the melodrama of Craig and the bombast of Brosnan.

If CR proved anything conclusive, it's that a world threat isn't necessary. The story just needs to be compelling in its own right, which to its credit CR was for about an hour. I wouldn't be that fussed if we never had a Armageddon plot ever aga…

It's too soon to criticize EON for this 4 year gap, before we know for sure whether Craig is back or not? If he's gone, then it makes sense to have a bit of breathing space before establishing a new actor. I think they made this decision to force…

The Diamonds Are Forever review will be probably another couple of weeks. Once that's done, I'll post on the official thread. I hope everything turns out well with Bond 25.

I'm going away for a while. I'll post my review for Diamonds Are Forever once it's done.
