Glad you enjoyed it as much as I did @bondsum. I must check out The Parallax View sometime. The Prisoner is a show I've been meaning to get to as well. Just to let you know, Season 2 of Homecoming has been confirmed.

So he's confirmed his return then? Yes, it is strange that the cast are being kept in the dark about their involvement or the level of their involvement. Perhaps it's to protect any script leaks this time around. -- M_Balje wrote: » Mabey in di…

I actually wasn't aware of Don Siegel being in it @bondsum. I do recall the barman though and will do some reading up on it. The version I saw had the jazz festival scenes in it. I was somewhat surprised by this actually, because it was a change of …

It's not an age thing. it's a body type thing. This slim look works on a taller man in my view and makes them look more elegant. On a shorter, more bulky man (in comparison to height) it looks rather ridiculous. Anyway, Bond should be finely tail…

Looking good. Two dogs this time. I didn't realize Halle was in it.

All I'll say is Mr. Osato was correct in his beliefs.

Whishaw casts doubts on his return. [Whishaw doesn’t expect to continue with the Bond franchise now that Mendes has departed from it, though he has nothing but praise for incoming director Cary Fukunaga: “I’m not even sure if I’ll be in it. I’m a…

The thing about these ranking exercises is that they don't capture the closeness of certain matchups. As an example, there are many who have indicated that the FRWL/TSWLM contest is a close one for them, but ultimately they went with FRWL. I'm one o…

I'm most interested in the cast and the composer at the moment. I think that will go a long ways towards improving my enthusiasm for this film, which remains tepid. I couldn't care less about another new bespoke Aston personally. Storyline I'm neith…

This is a crystal ball thread, so I don't see the harm on that front. We are one film away from that moment. I can't personally see Hardy getting the gig after Craig (too similar as far as I'm concerned), & the rationale that he's a given jus…

I think I'm going to reserve judgment on Fukunaga being 'great' until I see his Bond film. I'm hopeful that it will be better than the last one, but great is a term I generally reserve for directors who have delivered a bit more than he has to date,…

FRWL vs. TSWLM - a very difficult choice for me. FRWL is my top Bond film and TSWLM is my #4. Based on that, the decision should be simple, but it's actually not. I love both of these films equally for different reasons. One is the ultimate small sc…

When Newman is on his game he can be top of class. His romantic and ambient cues are some of the most haunting and beautiful I've heard. Road to Chicago (Road to Perdition) and Starship Avalon (Passengers) are just a few examples. Perhaps he just di…

In my case I just didn't like the action scene compositions in SP. I found them terribly uninspiring. I'm referring in particular to the post explosion chase in the PTS and also the car chase. The reuse of The Moors in the finale was quite distracti…
