  • 2014 will mark the 40th anniversay of Moore's second film...TMWTGG but I daresay many affiionados want to forget that one. :)
  • @Chrisisall thanks for posting that map. I can use it to make my points at the water coolers. :) @0BradyM0Bondfanatic7 Like I said, the new format takes getting used to. Muchas gracias.
  • Forgive the double post but the new format makes it necessary. Anyway, Jewish aggression has led to organizations like Hamas and the PLO militancy. They are tired of being pushed around.
  • This is tragic for the Palestinians. After what they endured during the holocaust, I would think that the Israelis would be more sympathic. But no. This is a sorry testiment to human nature. I mean Hitler (and Japan) claimed they needed "living sp…
  • Saw previews on "Sin City". My question is why are they using some of the characters from the first one? That movie was out about nine years ago (2005) and a lot of them died (Marv, Brannigan). This is obviously a prequel, and I don't think its nece…
  • In regards to Israel having nuclear weapons, those who claim that Israel has a right to defend itself has made my earlier point: No body messes with Israel because she has the bomb. A deterrent. There. As for Israel defending herself, I don;t he…

  • I think all nations should have Nukes. Before some of you tear my head off, hear me out. Back in 2001 President Bush declared North Korea, Iran and Iraq as this "Axis of Evil" then he promptly invaded Iraq. North Korea had the nuclear arsenal and …
  • @SaintMark sorry old chap, I have to stop you here. Your comment about Germany wanting to rule the world in both wars. That is such nonsense. It was Allied propoganda and espcially in WW2 about Germany wanting to conquer the world. There is no h…
  • Using a different story is good. That is the problem with "The Killing". I could only take Season 1. It just got old. A new story with fresh faces, and a new crime might have helped me keep my interest. About True Detective, they don't have to s…
  • So True Detective will follow the path of American Horror Story. Using totally different storylines. Interesting.
  • @DarthDimi We feel your pain and angst. Belgium has the misfortune of lying (like Poland) on main invasion routes. The wars of Louis XIV, Napoleon, the two World Wars all left the tiny country scarred. You guys never bothered anybody. At the Vi…
  • I'd like to see more of Alexandria Deddario but I guess thats not gonna happen. I like the idea of Don Cheadle and John Goodman. These are two supreb actors. I plan to keep watching the show. I'll probably finish it up this weekend.
  • Anyone catch the new series with Halle Berry? Some futuristic show about AI and she being an astronaut who comes back after 13 months alone in space and pregnant. Looks okay for now. Halle must be like 48 years old and she looks as good as she d…
  • I have rented and have been watching the first season of True Detective. I've seen two episodes and I have to say that I am not that impressed. It seems to be just an elaborate take on A&E's "The Killing". Two eccentric cops trying to solve a g…
  • I nominate LiveandEatPie 4EverBonded MayDayDiVicenzo
  • The decision to dub Baker's voice after Bond assumes the identity was all Peter Hunt's idea. Laz had no idea until he saw the picture and he was a bit put off by it. This is the only one of Hunt's decisions that left me scratching my head regar…
  • As far as the Connery era goes, is it just me or what? I mean, it seems that GF was the high water mark and after that the films seemed to progressively get worst... TB though epic in scope is not as good as GF YOLT is so overblown and DN is more…
  • @SaintMark As for "The Sixth Sense" I always thought that "The Others" handled the "big reveal" much more effectively. I don't think anyone saw that one coming. @Ludivico I never got 'Unbreakable". It seemed kinda....slow to me. I guess "Sig…
  • m Night Shyamalan was on top of the world with "Sixth Sense" and his next few films were sad attempts to duplicate that success. He failed. Cimino was the flavor of the Month after "The Deer Hunter" swept the Oscars. Then he went and committed pr…
  • What about directors who have lost their appeal? M Night Shyamalan Michael Cimino Michael Bay
  • I understand that the first season is on DVD. I do not subscrbe to any premium channels. I will have to rent the discs and give it a look-see.
  • There was so much to dislike about Armengeddon. The "big" cast (Bruce Willis, Ben Affleck, Billy Bob, Michael Dean (guy who played in the Green Mile). Overblwon publicity campaign. Deep Impact had come out in the spring while Armengeddon was re…
  • I always thought that was so interesting how the royal houses of Europe were so intertwined. Kaiser Wilhelm was first cousin to King George, he was a distant cousin to Nicholas II but Nicky's wife Alexandra was a first cousin to George and Wilhelm.…
  • I liked Bronson in Mr. Majestyk, and the one where he broke Robert Duvall out of that Mexican prison; and the Magnificent Seven and The Dirty Dozen. Seagall was good back in the day, his best film was Under Siege (the first one with Tommy Lee Jon…
  • One has to wonder after the war just what the hell all the fuss and bloodshed was about. I don't think anyone really could remember or recall just what their aims were in the war. France wanted to regain the lost provinces of Alsaac and Lorraine bu…

  • @Creasy47 speaking of going back and reliving a movie experience from "the days". I found two movies from the 70's that when I first saw them it was quite an "experience" Jaws The Exorcist
  • I have never seen (or wanted to see ) ET I never cared for Jennifer Aniston American Pie song (1972) is my candidate for the song from Hell Bogart should have won his Oscar for Treasure of the Sierra Madre and not African Queen
