• Yeah if that's true (and it feels like one of those stories which probably isn't made up: he doesn't seem a name someone with a lack of imagination would associate with Bond) it's encouraging. "A final decision on the screenwriter is expected by th…

• I saw lots of people online criticising the look of these two, I think mainly from an anti-Rowling perspective but claiming it's because their costumes look cheap and/or unoriginal, and I'm kind of puzzled what else a school uniform and duffle coat …

• But then FRWL and GF are him basically inventing a totally new sound all of his own and distinct to Bond. I totally get what you mean about him developing, and agree that TB has some amazing stuff which then develops in a more kind of 'beautiful' di…

  in Controversial opinions about Bond films Comment by mtm July 16
• Yeah it could well be that. I wonder if it was all sorts of little issues just combining to make the perfect storm in a way, because I don't think it's a bad film at all- it's not amazing but it's pretty fun. I'm not sure I'e ever completely bought …

• I would love to know what caused Solo to fail at the box office. Was it the lack of Ford, bad timing, Star Wars exhaustion, poor marketing etc.? I'm not sure anyone outside of Lucasfilm knows for sure.

• Was that the plan? Maybe a bit too similar to drunk Superman in Superman 3?

• It's basically a supercar, so it's a supercar price. As for the name: it's a bit of fun. Cars are supposed to be fun.
