I think the issue is whether one comes at it from a male centric perspective or a female centric one. Or from a visible minority perspective even. That is the legacy of #MeToo as far as I can see it. It's ironically a bit less independent than the l…

Theron is the right age but she's perhaps a bit too famous. More notably, she's too tall for our current Bond. He already had to deal with his vertical challenges in QoS apparently, and we wouldn't want to put him through that again. https://www.…

FYEO vs TMWTGG: Difficult call on the first one. I prefer Moore in the earlier film and like the characteristic Hamilton colourful zaniness and eccentricity. It has more charisma. However, there is something about FYEO that keeps bringing me back to…

Chaps, I'm quite sure @JamesBondKenya was joking. We have to laugh about these things, given how ridiculous the media can be. Oyleowo has as much chance of being Bond as I do. Zero, nil, nada, zip.

TND Motivated by a characteristically positive experience with GE the previous night, I took in a viewing of its successor. This is an entry which is often mentioned as 'peak Brosnan' by members on this forum. It's an opinion I can't agree with. …

He's too short. We've had enough of the camera tricks already.

Regarding B25, does anyone think they have the foreign distributor yet? Or are they still trying to find one? We'll know in about a month's time when MGM does its call, but was curious as to people's thoughts.

Regarding this CGI vs. Back projection discussion, just to lend my two cents: I can forgive back projection quite readily in older films. I am not as forgiving of it in 80's films (AVTAK comes to mind). I've often wondered why & I think it's bec…

Rebecca Romijn would have been amazing in anything in the 90s. I generally like Russo in anything that she does, so I'm surprised at the fact that I didn't enjoy her in the role. I think you've hit the nail on the head regarding her being a bit o…
