  • @Tuulia i agree sometimes you have to look for the most standout moments in someone's life to make a good biopic or just focusing in one period like Linclon where it was all about passing the 13th amendment instead of telling us his story since he…

  • I feel like I should change the thread on how important is the overall attractivness of the Bond actors? Or how important is for you to find the Bond actors attractive?
  • loved that scene, too. And it was very Bondian. But, nowadays, a character behaving like that is to be antagonized by the general audience, much to my dismay. Moore, to my knowledge, hated being like that, so he had to dial his "ruthlessness" down i…
