  • Some like him, some don't. Who am I talking about? Take your pick. It's the nature of the game.

  • So, another soap opera Bond. Brothergate in one film, (Spoiler) in another. Right now I'm just going for the aesthetics, the soundtrack, and because it's Daniel's last, with hopefully some cool shots and action pieces. Maybe for the writing. But n…

  • Dornan isn't THAT bad. I mean, he did a tv show I can't remember where he played someone I can't remember, a psychopath, I think he was rather good in that, but I can't remember. See what I mean? ;)

  • Vesper took a wild guess, and she was as right about that as she was about Bond having a Rolex. And Bond never broke a sweat. He never showed his hand. Except to defend his Omega honour ;) Redford as Felix would've been a dreamlike casting. He ha…

  • Horrendous everything. DUD is the masterpiece of bad, the epitome of cringeworthy, the apotheosis of atrocity, the film that made me embarrassed of being a Bond fan. The first 30 minutes are perfect?...NO! Bond SURFS! The dialogue is cringeworthy…
  • peter wrote: » Almost everything about DAD makes me cringe-- including this as a send-off for Brosnan. DAD gets my vote. Yep, DUD for me as well. Although, to be fair, no Bond actor had a good send off film, except for...well...Lazenby, and h…
