  • Belated birthday wishes to the great man @DarthDimi . How you manage to be a mod AND a popular member of the forum i have no idea. It's a gift that is hard to replicate. Big kisses and hugs
  • Tomorrow Never Dies Looking at Bond rankings across the forum I have soon become aware that You Only Live Twice is something of a guilty pleasure for me. And the same can be said for TND. All the criticisms I've read about it somehow don't regis…

  • Midway through season 8 of Homeland. This is a perfect example of why so many great talents have moved from cinema to TV. The writing, directing, editing, acting are exceptional and put many big budget movies to shame. And I never knew I could…
  • GoldenEye A soft re-boot with many new faces in front of and behind the camera. New boy Pierce clearly has a few wobbly moments and struggles to hide his excitement at being the new Bond. However,when he gets it right he can do the dramatic bit…

  • @Mathis1 . Yes but that’s just me and I know I’m in the minority. Dalton is popular and LTK is much admired. I won’t change those perceptions but I’m just not on board with them. :)
  • Licence To Kill After the terrific TLD, we get a grim story of revenge and retribution. Even though LTK always ends up bottom of my Bond ranking it isn't because I don't like it. I mean its better than a whole host of other action films and ma…

  • So, TLD is your second worst and LTK is your favourite?
  • Yes the Russian airbase line was a cracker but it wasn’t the one I was trying to remember. It will come to me

  • Benny wrote: » Great reviews again @NicNac , how do the last few films fit into your ranking's so far? I just get flummoxed when I try to rank them. :) TLD before OP? LALD before DN? My brain explodes. EDIT Just looking back at m…
  • Thanks guys. The Living Daylights Another Myth Buster. Hot on the heels of the ridiculous myth that Sean Connery looked bored in YOLT, time to shite all over another favourite myth, which goes something like this... Nobody was ready for a mo…
  • I've got some vague memory of that @Birdleson . A distant, hazy memory of these two lovelies appearing together in a Godzilla movie. I need to see it again sometime.
  • Although we are aware of your problem @=bg= we (mods) can only refer it on to the admin team. And of course you have also gone down that route. Sorry my friend we will try and help as best we can.
  • A View To A Kill Everyone's favourite punching bag among the Roger Moore films, AVTAK has the tough job of following the grounded fan fav FYEO and the glamorous OP. How can it possibly cope with an aging Moore and a geriatric 1980s support team? …
