  • I can't believe you actually think Cameron is funny, the guy has all the charisma of a brick wall. I don't know who I'm going to vote for but I wouldn't vote Tory ever, I lived under 17 years of their rule before this coalition farce and Labour…
  • Arctics are much better suited to SPECTRE, I don't see Adele or Sam Smith doing justice to a sinister title like SP. l You can't do something ballad like with a title like that, it has to have more attitude, Alex Turner has shown many times that …

  • Are we still going on about the bloody Aston Martin? Seriously some of you need to get a life! By the way still love Skyfall my passion for it has not diminished coming back to this thread.
  • 1. SF 2. CR 3. QOS 4. GE 5. TND 6. TWINE 7. DAD I can't stand the Brosnan era but if I had to rank them this would be it.
  • The latest trailer is utterly awful, seriously I said this had flop written all over it. In such a crowded summer there are going to be casualties and this looks dead on arrival. Awash with awful CGI and now this John Connor as a Terminator ru…
  • I will admit as a kid as thinking TOD was my favourite Indy film as it was my first taste of the series on the big screen. Although I can't hold that idea anymore as Raiders is just a masterpiece, the greatest action adventure film of all time. …

  • Looking good and again another great tease for us all. Like so many have said you can't but get emotional watching that, watched it first earlier this evening on the lap top and then more recently on my new 42" Ultra HD 4K TV. Definitely benef…
  • Couldn't argue with that as I actually said that in another thread yesterday.

  • I'm not sure why it's hard to see that is Waltz, I spotted it the first time round. It's like those who have claimed that you can't hear Waltz's dialogue clearly in the teaser at the end, it was plain as day to me what he said. Yet those idiots d…

  • Please stop the smileys, do you know how smug it looks? It's like everyone as returned to kindergarten. If I could wipe one element of the internet out it would be that, it's used to excess and you all just look like children.

  • I really hope this happens, they are such a great band and Alex Turner is a real talent. I'm sure they'll hit it out the park. Does this mean it might be like CR and QOS another title tune that doesn't use the title? Also if it is them it wou…
