Yes, I indeed spelled that out clumsily (I am often writing in a hurry). Just to make it clear: My point was not that the plot is "plain and simple", therefore "boring". What I a meant is that it is "plain and simply" "boring"! And of course I know …

The latter part of the film from Kentucky onwards is boring, plane and simple! The plot is a clumsy mess, and the pacing goes to a halt. I can live with seeing Bond in captivity. (I can even live with the plot revolving around Bond raping Pussy on t…

Honestly I don't see much manegarial potential in Henry. I have seen him as a pundit om several occations, and I have never been impressed by his football knowledge. He might be likeable and a decent leader, but on tactical understanding I think he …

Btw: Why is it that Bach seems to be always overlooked when examples of bad actresses in Bond are being listed? Ekland, Richards, Roberts, Hatcher and even Berry are commonly mentioned as the horror examples of terrible Bond girl performances (and r…

I have no idea what you are talking about. Craig's Bond is far more a character than Brozza's who just seemed like an actor portraying James Bond with no real idea where to take him. And Craig is certainly likeable! And, may I add, I think he is les…

I can´t help but laugh whenever Trump and his supporter try to pretend they somehow represent the tough, resourceful alfa males of this world. If there are two things their behaviour speaks of, it is fear and deep sensitivity.

Haha. This thread is so wrong... in the best possible way! :D

The thing for me is that Craig's looks suits a bit of aging more than any of the other Bond's. He will look like a seasoned agent in B25, but he will still be credible as an agent. (Unlike grandpa Bond in OP and AVTAK...) He was never a 'pretty boy'…

I am not really concerned about box office numbers to be honest. Practice has shown that the size of the production budget is not really linked with the quality of the finished film. Furthermore the Bond films that have turned out to be super hits a…
