  • Continuing my very first trek into the films of Star Trek..... Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan (Director's Edition) In order to somewhat prep myself for the viewing of this film, I watched the Original Series episode, "Space Seed," to get so…
  • Star Trek (09) and Star Trek Into Darkness have put me in a Trek mood, to say the least. It suddenly dawned on me that I had never seen an older Star Trek film (Kirk nor Picard). Well that is about to change. I've posted this in the 'Star Trek' thre…
  • For me it is certainly GoldenEye 007 for the N64. There have been other great Bond games (Nightfire, EON) but none of them will come close to GE64.
  • Beginning my first trek into the films of Star Trek....I commence with.... Star Trek: The Motion Picture (The Director's Edition) I'll just get this one out of the way - yes, Star Trek: The Motion Picture has some SERIOUS pacing issues. It i…

  • My favorites: 1. Skyfall 2. You Know My Name 3. A View to a Kill 4. Nobody Does It Better 5. Live and Let Die 6. Goldfinger 7. GoldenEye The only two I really don't listen to at all are Die Another Day (yikes) and All Time High (just bor…
  • I'm honestly still undecided if I would want Quantum to return. It brings up bad memories for me. The idea of Quantum on paper (SPECTRE: Part II) is interesting, but Quantum of Solace flubbed it so badly that there may be no 100% clean way to bri…
  • I mostly agree on this. This aspect of the film is OHMSS's biggest story flaw, and might be the most jarring thing about this otherwise great Bond film. Going off and shagging a handful of Piz Gloria girls only to have Tracy marry Bond not 30 min…
  • No way to DiCaprio, but it's obvious that ain't happening. Like many of you have stated, Cillian Murphy is a fine actor and may one day make a creepy villain/henchman, but he's not right for Bond. Joel Edgerton is going to be too old by the time …
  • Just saw it. I am incredibly disappointed. I'll put my complaints in a spoiler tag just in case. (Spoiler)
  • Alright, so I've just viewed "Space Seed" from TOS, and I found it to be a very well written episode. Khan was certainly a great villain, and I could see why they brought him back for his own film. I have never actually viewed a single episode of St…

  • Alright, I'm about to begin a Star Trek marathon over the next couple days. After seeing the 2009 version and Into Darkness, I have become very interested in seeing the older films. (I have only seen Wrath of Khan, and that was at 2AM one day....nee…
  • It can't get any worse than A Good Day to Die Hard. Episode I, Crystal Skull, Rocky V, throw whatever you want at it. Hell even RoboCop 3.
  • I wouldn't call MI:GP 'brilliant' either, but it was indeed great fun. I own the first three, I really need to pick that one up sooner or later....
  • Recently had a triple feature. Because I had only seen this film once before (and as I just saw Into Darkness), I decided to give this one a re-watch. Needless to say, I enjoyed Star Trek immensely. Great characters, special effects and story. Ju…
  • Excellent work, everyone, keep it up! For those of you who are confused, please look at the above examples as I believe all of them are great guidelines.
  • 0BradyM0Bondfanatic7 wrote: even GF which many feel deserves a crowning around here, when it is one of the least "special" of the Connery era when compared to the rest. Hmmmm. Certainly YOLT and DAF are the least "special" films of the Conner…
  • The Casino Royale gun barrel is a great little break of tradition. Not only is it an awesome introduction into the film, but it symbolically shows James Bond becoming '007.' The problem with QOS's gun barrel placement stems from the ending of Cas…
  • 0BradyM0Bondfanatic7 wrote: I'm happy to say I have never seen this. It is honestly worth a watch, Brady. I mean, it's bad, but it is worth a watch. And I'm going to hold out for the 5 worst moments of YOLT. That shouldn't take all too lon…

  • Has anyone mentioned that poor bastard Zorin has killed with the underwater intake fan in A View to a Kill? That was pretty gnarly. This guy: http://screenmusings.org/AViewToAKill/pages/AVtaK_427.htm
  • Oh, and as a afterword for my brief Die Another Day review: I actually think Zao was a pretty cool henchman. I can't really say he's wasted in the film as he has a fair amount of screen-time, but I almost wish he was the main villain instead of G…
  • Die Another Day I'm pretty sure I've got this movie all figured out. I have seen it so many damned times now and my opinion never really changes. It starts out decently and pretty much goes down the drain once the film gets to Iceland. Embarrassi…
  • I went into to it with middling expectations, but the film exceeded all of them with ease. It is perhaps a touch to long, but with a neat, twisty-turny story, great villain and some of the best visual effects I have ever seen in ANY movie, I would f…
  • A fairly fun movie, though not as good as the first. I also didn't care too much for the plot concerning Rick's all of a sudden 'destiny' and such (where was all that in the first movie??). I can say that double decker bus action scene is probably t…
  • Picked up this gem on blu-ray for $5 at Best Buy. What a damn steal.
