  • Thanks, guys! Haha, @Jordo007 I honestly just never find the time. TripAces wrote: » Pierce2Daniel wrote: » Zarozzor wrote: » I don't think it's a masterpiece, but definitely top tier. Weaker third act compared to the first two, a…

  • His voice 😍😍😍
  • After the tepid first trailer, that was pretty close to perfect. I'm beyond impressed. It looks as though Oscar Issac is going to be the MVP. I got serious goosebumps during that final speech. I was pretty captivated by that score and those beaut…

  • New beautiful posters and trailer later this week! This is my second most anticipated film of the year. I'm just so hyped for a Villeneuve and Chalamet collaboration. Plus that cast is so stacked. I'm very excited for another look at this film. The …
  • I think it's a shame that Adam Driver is both American and super famous. He has all the ingredients to play a moody, intense 007. Denbigh wrote: » The problem I have with Page (not personally obviously) is that he seems to have only reached…

  • I was recently back home when CR was on ITV and I caught my parents watching it. They were initially fawning over Daniel Craig and how "young" he looked. But the object of their affection quickly switched to Eva Green. Both couldn't stop commenting …

  • I'd love to see some artwork based on these moments from the Craig era.... Also....could we perhaps get a mock-up of Rege-Jean Page:
  • In preparation of NTTD, I have been (slowly) making my way through Cary's filmography. I first watched True Detective back when it aired in 2014 and was obsessed with this show. In fact, it blew me away. So I was a little nervous revisiting it. I do…
  • Bezos is vile. However, I really want this deal to happen. Personally, I think Prime Video is a really great service. I use it a lot...Perhaps even more than Netflix. Its originals are a little sparse, but it has a deep bench of other titles avai…
  • Okay, I rewatched this yesterday evening. It was exactly what I needed after a stressful couple of weeks. When I last watched this in 2013, I was disappointed. It didn't live up to my memory of it. However, ridding myself of any expectations and jus…

  • Regé-Jean Page recently left Bridgerton's second series and even Deadline ran an article stating he 'is mix to be the next James Bond'. It's unclear if they are speculating or have heard something. Though it could likely be a bit of both. I like …
  • Excellently put @ImpertinentGoon - couldn't agree more. I watched Cowboys & Aliens again last night on Netflix. You know what? For this kind of anonymous, generic Hollywood studio film....it's definitely on the better end of the spectrum. In …
  • I never really get the sense that LTK was a thrifty production. It's certainly a smaller film, but that felt by design. The world isn't in danger and Sanchez has more modest goals than say Drax or Blofeld. Though I do appreciate that it LTK lacks a …
  • I watched this again last night...I have to say I was rather impressed. It's a James Bond film that is actually about something. It's certainly an ambitious film and (in an age where we moan about Bond films being formulaic) LTK is trying to be diff…
  • I was thinking about this earlier this week. The Bond franchise tends to follow trends. You can see this in the Craig-era (most noticeably in how the Bourne and Nolan films influenced certain entries). However, the Bond genre is very well-defined in…

  • I watched this again last night, and have to say it's much better than I remembered it to be. At times, I was so entertained that I genuinely thought this was a 5 star film. In the end, cooler heads prevailed and I would comfortably give this ⭐⭐⭐⭐/5…
  • Next up...Knives Out....I watched this again last night and it really holds up. It's a proper ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐/5 film. In fact, it's probably more enjoyable and entertaining to watch a second time. Further, it's even satisfying to pick over the film and consid…

  • I watched this again yesterday evening, it's seriously entertaining. It's pretty dumb and childish in comparison to the Daniel Craig films, but this YOLT is the movie for you if you want an impeccably-made, charming and mischievous 1960's action fil…
  • I've decided to keep my posts down on the forum (at least till/if NTTD opens). Though I was hoping to re-watch some of Craig's work leading up to NTTD. So whilst away, I thought I'd come back now and again to share some thoughts and perhaps start a …
