  • I feel comfortable saying No Time to Die is in the top 27 Bond film endings.

  • "You are nothing, Labiche. The paintings are mine; they always will be. Beauty belongs to the man who can appreciate it."
  • Blood and Wine. Riveting, especially the ending, which was also poignant. It was a treat to see Jack and my main man Caine sharing the screen. The latter played a cruel yet pitiful bastard.
  • I don't know if No Time to Die had the best ending in the franchise, but it definitely had the **most** ending in the franchise.

  • Well, since I already have his charm, I'll take the gadgets. Oh, alright, I'll answer seriously. If I have to choose, I'll take the charisma. I can buy gadgets, charisma is harder to find.

  • Having finally wrapped my cycle of Indiana Jones viewings, I'll probably watch Dead Reckoning this weekend. I certainly enjoyed Fallout but not thaat much. Hoping this one is a lot of fun.
  • Anybody seen that comedy she made with Pierre Richard? I'd like to.

  • Thoughts after a second viewing of the film (SPOILERS AHEAD): 1) I really like the structure of this story and the plot of the film. A few random things I would change: a) Colonel Weber trying to kill Jones with the fake lance instead of his …
