  • FWIW: A black woman has been associated with the name "Bond" before. When Rosie Carver appears in LALD, Bond asks if she is "Mrs. Bond" and then proceeds to call her so. Food for thought.
  • Uh...I dared to poke around that Instagram acct. Ewwwwwww.

  • Interesting that this has popped up. I am working on a chapter for a book, and I discuss (a little bit) Selleck's wearing of a Detroit Tigers hat on the show. In many ways, it was Magnum PI that made wearing ball caps "cool."
  • I'll go a step further and provide the exact moment: Connery: In bed with Fiona Volpe (TB) Lazenby: First ski chase (OHMSS) Moore: drving the Lotus Esprit underwater (TSWLM) Dalton: Killing Dario (LTK) Brosnan: Killing Electra (TWINE) Craig:…

  • SP may be the most frustrating Bond film ever made. Overall, it's middle of the pack, for me. The frustration stems for the film's first 115 minutes being really good. It's followed by a third act that is a mess...and based on the emails, what di…

  • 1. Newman didn't rerecord anything from SF to put into SP. 2. Mendes took SF tracks and used them in SP. His call 100%. Not sure I agreed with the idea. But it is what it is. 3. It is not the first time that a director has taken his or her compose…
