I'm surprised people still view the antiquated Oscars with such reverence any more. They're so totally cringe. Sadly, for this particular Bond fan, Eilish's song has now evaporated into the ether, and the goodwill I showed it earlier this year ha…

Very sad news. The only James Bond you ever needed to watch. He was the bar they all tried to reach. RIP

Okay, thanks @Pierce2Daniel. I now get the gist of what you're implying. You were drawing a comparison between a not-so-distant past event against a ruthless totalitarian regime and a present-day European Federalist authority and Britain's stance ag…

Where does this fiendish idea come from @thedove? As I recall, it was mega-Hollywood producer Joel Silver who attempted to buy the rights to James Bond back in the early 90's. Silver has gone on record as saying he would've cast long-time friend Mel…

At this point, I'm more curious to listen to Hans Zimmer's score and how he weaves Eilish's song throughout, plus the addition of Johnny Marr on the soundtrack. As for the song, it's already been and gone. Too bad.

1) Casino Royale (Head and shoulders above the rest here) 2) Quantum of Solace (Needed more work but overall not as bad as some would say) 3) SPECTRE (Not great, not terrible either) 4) Skyfall (Strong first quarter, peters out to a grim fizzle…

It was a smart business decision. It now gives Eon plenty of time to gauge the knock-on effect of this virus and if a further delay is needed in November. I understand people's frustration but there's zero point in releasing a big-budget movie to em…

No, you're not alone @Getafix. (Spoiler) Without seeing too much of the lead-up footage it's difficult to say whether the CGI will be as shoddy as DAD, though I doubt anything will be as bad as that. But there is a slight whiff of DAD about this m…

There appears to be three ways this movie was first viewed. Those that saw it on it's first cinematic release; those that saw it on TV many year's later, and those that came across it on video or DVD, out of sequence and decades later. I can only…
