  • Looking forward to watch it. Looks really good.
  • Letter to you, the new Boss & E Street Band album. It’s so damn good. Top form from Springsteen and the gang. Highly recommended.
  • Simply the best. A true titan of the silver screen. As Baldwin so aptly puts it, the Number 1. I can’t be sad, though, for this man had a grand life and died one of the best deaths, surrounded by his love ones. I am truly happy for him. His life mus…

  • That's the exact same haircut he had in the movie, if you're talking about Brosnan. Same one as in this photo from the same photoshoot. I, for one, love that haircut. Still use it myself :D Granted, in the photoshoot he has more hair product than i…

  • @MajorDSmythe and @DoctorClatterhand, I'm sorry about your losses. I too have been on the frontline of mental health care and have experienced, seen and accompanied the loss of too many people this year. Hence my comment regarding streaming, even if…
  • Unfortunately, @DarthDimi, I call him a "product of our times". Now the question is, what do we call times like these, like the ones we're living now? That's the million dollar question. That "product of our times", though, I'd love to call him an "…
  • I'm afraid the "I could wait" discourse is getting rather close to wishful thinking. Many people, by then, will have been unfortunate enough to have lost their lives. Bond fans, of course, included. This thing is here to stay for a while, and the po…

  • I'd rather have Hoult in the part. In 2027. He'll have to loose that baby face first. And there's plenty of time for that. BTW, guy's got brilliant comedic timing and range.
