I would dare say that I think it shows strong foresight on Cubby's part to recast Bond early on. Trusting that the name "James Bond" would be enough to sell the films beyond Connery set the course for the idea of recasting the role every decade or s…

Everything Or Nothing was the one that truly felt like a big, over the top Bond film to me. I loved it. I would replay it as if I was watching a Bond film. Great times. I also have a real soft spot for From Russia With Love. Once you get past the…

I have the four film one. I was tempted by the five one just for the cleanliness of having all the films in one box, but instead I finally found a decent deal on the standalone releases with the slipcovers. The Connery steelbook set had reminded me …

As much as it would butcher the release order of the films, I would be okay with them combining Brosnan, Dalton, and Lazenby in terms of the aesthetic of the boxsets - the steelbooks in particular. At least that would even out the size seeing as it …

Sad news. He was spry and strong for so many years. He was still quite active on social media through No Time To Die's production and right through until his fall a couple of years ago. Luckily, the former Bond actors seem to live long, full lives. …

I would welcome a Zimmer/Mazzaro/Marr return for Bond 26. Considering the limited time Zimmer had for No Time To Die, I felt like the score still had a lot of shining moments and good themes. Excellent use of the title theme too. Having him involved…

Yes, at this point if you haven't been buying them along the way - just get World of Assassination so you have the most complete experience (although there is still extra DLC to be had as well). It's very convoluted and much a result of the studio b…

I expect the gameplay will be similar to Hitman: Absolution, which was a more linear Hitman game but mixed with "classic" Hitman sandbox style missions. Shooting is usually not the way to go with Hitman, but is still very much a part of the DNA. The…

It has also been a rather slow year at the box office in general. While I'm no expert, it does seem to suggest that people just aren't going to the movies as much this year. Add in some Mission: Impossible/Tom Cruise burnout from audiences, the mass…

The CBS/FOX VHS release from 1983 has a still of Jaws and Dolly on the back cover. Guess what? No braces. This was also the version of the film I rented countless times from my old local video store. I don't ever recall braces. I thought the joke wa…

Ourumov borrowed the IMF's facemask machine and looked just like the Admiral.

I always thought the "crowd pleaser" ending might have been to cut away from Bond before the missiles hit. The rest of the film plays out - they all assume Bond is dead, M offers the toast, and so forth. Then, as Madeleine and Mathilde are driving, …
