  • As much as i would like to see him as the next Bond won't likely happen, as far as looking the part where Craig is concerned this an argument that will go on for infinitum and will no doubt include DC being a potato head, not like Flemming's Bond et…
  • Fassbender is a moron. How could DC have been anybody's "choice" for Bond other than Babs because she went goo gah over his naked bum in Layer Cake and then decided she would dress him up as mini-hulk in baby-blue beach-speedo. DC has done an admira…
  • While I can see the argument for QOS not being Bond, CR felt like the most Bondian film since the Dalton era, the music, one liners & the side line characters do not make a Bond film, that is what made the series so cheap and tacky, yes I want t…
  • I would argue that the Brosnan films were just generic action flicks with all the ingredients thrown at them, DC007 the fact you need these elements to remind you of Bond proves that it's not the character that makes you think it's Bond but the wind…
  • Just putting the gun barrel back where it usually is and having the JB theme blaring will not make it a Bond film, not in my view at least. This the trap we got into with the PB era, ticking the boxes etc. Yes I'd like to see the GB back at the sta…
  • I thought the Brosnan era was like watching a Bond tribute act, they threw so much of what was associated with the series at those films, I don't like GE at all but it did seem they were looking to change things a little but once we got to TND it wa…
  • I personally hope they don't get lazy and just cast him as an out and out villain, an ally would be more interesting, the idea of him playing Q or Boothroyd depending on how they reboot the Quatermaster. Giving him the big bad shows a lack of imagi…
  • Maybe it's just because Bond doesn't rule my world anymore and hasn't for sometime but there is something a little pointless about watching a film on TV when you own it on DVD or Blu ray. When I see a film I already own on the TV my automatic react…
  • I could describe quite a few Bond films as bloody awful, I can't say I hold them in the same regard I did when I was a kid, films like YOLT, DAF, MR, OP & VTAK are likely to never grace my eyes again, after watching a marathon before QOS was rel…
  • Lets face it you can't polish a turd, VTAK is bloody awful, Walken is wasted in what could have been one of the best villains of the series, it showed that Moore was well passed it and made Dalton taking over in TLD that so much more refreshing. Mo…
  • To Live and Die In L.A Absolute pants, I've seen better episodes of Miami Vice, what happened to William Friedkin?
  • 72 so between Connery & Moore, so I'll go with Moore as he was my first Bond experience on the big screen and full stop in 77 with SWLM CONNERY -0 LAZENBY -2 MOORE -6 DALTON -8 BROSNAN -1 CRAIG -0
  • The new look is interesting and allows me to start a fresh again, with a new name as well, been a while since I've posted but always drop in for a look to catch up on the news etc.
  • Interesting new look, back again I'll see how long that lasts
