  • Well, I can only speak for myself as one of those that has consistently voted against "Skyfall", but I've never liked the song. I didn't care for it when I heard its debut on the radio and that feeling hasn't changed during any subsequent times I'v…
  • I wish I could say the same thing about Skyfall as well. I was pumped when I left Quantum of Solace, and had I been on my own rather than with a friend, I would have turned right back around and gone to see it a second time. I found myself checkin…

  • Glad to see that there's a thread like this here. I love Quantum of Solace. It is, IMO, the best of the Craig films. Yes, there are some areas where they could have perhaps expanded on the story a bit and developed things better, aside from that,…

  • I love Kitchen Nightmares as well. The uncensored episodes are great. Hotel Hell, which started its second season last week, is pretty good as well, following the same template of Kitchen Nightmares and applying it to hotels.
  • I was pretty much turned off of Leprechaun: Origins the moment that I learned that the WWE was the creative force behind it. The Leprechaun franchise was probably one of those few franchises that legitimately needed a reboot, as things had gotten…
  • I definitely wouldn't go out of the way to see it, that's for certain. If, and that's a pretty big if as there were times I almost reached for the remote, it's worth viewing at all, it's for Eva Green. Take Eva Green out of the film and what's lef…
  • I think that 300: Rise of an Empire is really only worth viewing a single time @Creasy47, if it's even worth that much, simply for Eva Green. Not saying it because she's been in one of the better Bond films of late, but she really is the only redee…
  • 300: Rise of an Empire (2014) To call 300: Rise of an Empire a massive disappointment would be a massive understatement. Coming eight years after Zack Snyder's surprisingly decent 300, this film fails to live up to its predecessor in almost ev…
  • You're welcome @Creasy47. Not really sure about why they don't go the bald cap route. Seems like it would be something that would be relatively easy to do in this day in age, with the effects technology that is currently employed by filmmakers.
  • Here's another pic of Friend as Agent 47: I'm excited about the new Hitman film as well. I'm very much looking forward to how Rupert Friend handles such a role. Hopefully it won't keep him from being a contender to replace Craig after Bond 25.

  • I don't think that they should go with Quantum trying to hunt down enemy agents in the next film. First, they just did that in Skyfall, even if it was a subplot that got discarded less than halfway through the film and was never brought up again. …
