Picked up Mission: Impossible - Rogue Nation earlier today.

I think using The Man With the Golden Gun as the basis for Bond 26 and the introduction of the next Bond would be a very good idea, and the way I would go about making the film if it were up to me, but I can't see EON going for it. The next actor…

I'll take Spectre. That opinion could change over time, but I walked out of Spectre feeling much better about it than I did when I walked out of the theater after Skyfall.

I'll agree with those that say that this plot device wouldn't work for the Bond/Blofeld relationship. The whole idea of not remembering faces was introduced to provide some tension to the scene with regards to the romance between Bond and Swann. W…

Worst is definitely Never Say Never Again. Not much of a contest there, really. Best? Probably, for my money, The Living Daylights. I also rather liked the scores for Licence to Kill and GoldenEye, as unpopular as they seem to be.

LIVE AND LET DIE Book: 3 Film; 0 Tie: 0 It has to be the book. It's not even a contest, really. EON's Live and Let Die ranks near the very bottom for me, just above the likes of Die Another Day and The Man With the Golden Gun.

The Man From U.N.C.L.E. (2015) I know that this one was pretty well received by those that saw it, but I just couldn't get into it. Had to turn it off a little ways through the film, as I just couldn't take it anymore. I know absolutely nothing …

I get the feeling that Wilson has been away from writing the Bond films for so long that his return to writing them might not be what those of us who liked his writing during the Moore and Dalton years would hope it would be. As for Butterworth, …

1. Mr. White 2. L'Américain (especially loved a drunk Madeleine rejecting Bond's advances and mockingly threatening to kill him). 3. Train fight with Mr. Hinx Honorable Mention: Any scene with Lea Seydoux. ;)

I thought it was enjoyable in a turn-your-brain-off kind of way, mainly because it was just fun to see Arnold back in his old stomping ground. Is Terminator Genisys a good film? No, but for a fan of Arnold it was a decent little bit of fun, espe…

I enjoyed SPECTRE but think that EON needs to make a change with the next Bond film. There are just too many avoidable problems in SPECTRE to stay the current course. They also need to cut ties with all of the writers they've been employing in rec…

I agree with a lot of what you had there. I might take a crack at what I would change about the film, even though I did rather enjoy SPECTRE, there's still quite a bit I would have changed around. A couple of ways that they could have made the t…

IMO, I don't think that they have. They've updated it, sure, but they have to do that in order to stay relevant. What Disney would do to Bond would be worse than anything Purvis, Wade, and Logan could do to it.

Disney getting Bond would be about the worst thing that could happen to the franchise. I'd much rather see them just stop making the films if Disney were the only alternative, as they'd run it so far into the ground, making the films so completely …

Absolutely not.

Finally got around to seeing SPECTRE, so it's time for an update to the rankings. 1. Licence to Kill 2. From Russia With Love 3. The Living Daylights 4. Dr. No 5. For Your Eyes Only 6. Quantum of Solace 7. SPECTRE 8. On Her…

I would tend to agree, although I don't think that Brosnan was aided much by the screenwriters who continually turned good ideas into the kind of garbage that we ultimately got to see on the screen. But, as you said, other actors might have been …
