What I don't liked in Sanchez's mansion is this: So, I'd rather have Scaramanga's island, instead, plus, there are many amenities and places for me to explore.

He's not a loser in any of the films, what I've meant is incompetence and Bond pretty showed it in Goldfinger. I don't remember Bond being an incompetent one in Skyfall, if anything, he's an effective agent in that film, he's not even the reason …

For me, the fact that Bond does nothing in the film at all, he's held captive in the third act and barely did nothing. He's pretty incompetent in this film as he led the Masterson sisters (Jill and Tilly) to death, then held captive by the villai…

#2 for me, I think it's an action packed and fun scene, but again, it's been a while since I've done that ranking, and it might've changed now, because on my recent viewings I found the boat chase to be a bit overlong (although not as dreadful as th…

The hand waving of tape in the end was a bit corny considering the grounded tone of the film, it's like the winking fish scene in LTK, just odd, it's not that much necessary, I guess. And I liked the style of the book with Spy vs. Spy kind of thi…

Well, I prefer Brosnan over Moore, so there's it. He just got stuck with weak materials to worked with. I think had he given a strong script, he could've unleashed his full potential. Yes, he had a wider range than Moore in terms of acting, I mea…

Thanks @Benny 😊

For me Moore is what I consider the built in type of actor, in that he played the same, usual way all over again. That's for me, he basically played it with no effort, no genuinity, and not truly felt, his acting was just two dimensional, if one ma…

I liked Reed as a Bond villain, I personally don't find him attractive at all, I've seen him in Assassination Bureau trailers, and he's not handsome, he just didn't have the looks. I think he would've been an accurate version of Fleming's Largo o…
