It's nice when people you admire share a taste with yourself, Craig being a Radiohead fan and also maybe a Pink Floyd one as well, that man certainly has taste.

A Field In England 2013 I've not seen Ben Wheatley's debut Down Terrace but have been turned onto this man's work since his brutal follow up the seriously dark horror/thriller Kill List ( be warned it's not going to be everyone's taste). Wheatle…

What a great day for news, found I have a new job to go to after my redundancy in August, Pearl Jam have a new album out in October and now Bond 24 confirmed for UK October 2015. I can wait, lets see what Mendes and Logan can do with what they se…

Samantha Bond is a fine actress in the right role, Moneypenny was not that role. As to Harris being wooden I did'nt see it personally. Though there was some sexual chemistry between Bond and MP no they didn't sleep together.

Whereas Connery debut is a better performance I'll take OHMSS over DN every time. Guess I've been smoking something yes? Moore in OHMSS would have been a big mistake, OHMSS ruined by his gutteral sounds as he gets punched. Lets face it he did …

I recently bought the Criterion Edition Blu ray of this film and gave it a watch tonight, a cracking presentation from this studio as always and presented in it's original aspect ratio 1.33:1, a big improvement on previous release of this film on DV…

I would have to say MR although I do dislike the film quite allot, it was the last Bond film on a large scale which felt like one those type Bond films. Whereas the Brosnan so called big epics felt like some generic action film and nothing like a…

If you haven't seen the Nolan Bat films I would check themselves out for yourself rather than taking SaintMark's opinion, he's clearly more a fan of the campy Burton Batman, if that is your bag fine but these films have not aged well. I personall…

While Eva Green is second only to Diana Rigg for me when it comes to Bond girls I was impressed with the short screen time Bernice got, her moments with Craig were great and the lines she got with him in the casino sequence were some of the best of …
-
Serverine, Bernice looks like she can actually act whereas Adams wasn't that convincing, she gave a better performance in OP.
-
Seriously I don't want them back but really it wasn't that big a deal, it was a nice little homage to the Moore films, was it really a deal breaker? the way some of you speak you'd think it had ruined the film. Lets face it the Dalton films weren…

Did this a few years back, The Thing is my favourite John Carpenter film and up there with one of my all time faves. The Thing 1982 You know it's strange the amount of films that at the time are not appreciated and receive not only poor box of…

AVTAK is utter tosh seriously only a Bond fan could excuse that embarrassment of an entry. Some of you just excuse any old rubbish because it has James Bond attached to it, nostalgia is one thing but trying to say this film is anything but not ve…

That's down to a opinion I guess, I'd say he used it too much because he was stuck for ideas and anyway the Brosnan era was all about hammering home the point you were watching a Bond film in big capital letters, no room for subtlety. Agreed the …

David Arnold can.

Only the likes of us are going to think Mendes is dragging his knuckles with this one and being slow with his decision. As someone has said he's not going to announce this when doing press for another project he's working on it's not his job to d…

While I would like some Bond theme in the next film I certainly don't want the overuse of it from the Brosnan era or was that error? Strangely enough the banker moment from TWINE is probably Brozzer's best moment and that comes from someone who c…

What a coincidence just watch Rear Window from my recently acquired Essential Hitchcock Blu ray boxset, Vertigo, North By North West, Psycho & The Birds to go, can't wait. Thought about the bigger set but this more recent one captures the bes…

OHMSS. While acknowledge when on form Connery until (for me anyway) Skyfall that in FRWL was the pinnacle of Bond performance, Connery's performance was very lazy and lacklustre in YOLT and as for DAF it was like a different actor was playing the…
