  • I presume it'll be at Goodwood on the weekend, will have a look. I don't mind the style of it, but the proportions look a bit off, as I think a lot of Bentleys do. It looks a little weedy on those wheels.

  • I completely forgot to check, and the BMW Z8 and FYEO white Lotus Esprit have gone on pre-sale. Luckily both seem to still be available to order; I must have the Lotus, so I've ordered that!

  • He started shooting Dune 3 today. I feel a bit sorry for him really, I know folks are hyped for more Dune but imagine how the press tour will go, there'll be so many questions about Bond.
  • I've been giving it a listen on Spotify, it's not really my sort of thing, bit bland. I don't think I'd call any of it Williams in style.
  • I find the idea they're talking about doing anything with it pretty dubious, but I think I'd only be interested in something starring Indy. My vote would be a Mandalorian-style streaming series, taking Indy back to his serial roots. To be honest I …

  • Heh! Yeah that Empire one was a real surprise; with that and The Guardian's response to it (also negative) I'm not too certain about this film. 'Just doesn't work' are quite strong words.

  • 007HallY wrote: » :)) There you go! Did anyone have this one their bingo card? Ah well, I guess that's the nature of big films nowadays. There'll always be something to complain about before it's released, and often it'll be anti-woke stuff. K…

  • I'd be happy with that; I do wonder if they're not the best superhero films so far.
  • 007HallY wrote: » Again, my issue is his ability as an actor. I’ve seen nothing in his recent work that convinces me he’s the best option. I agree, I don’t think he has that charisma needed for Bond. But I could be comically wrong! Yeah I a…
  • I like IMAX because it fits my TV screen :) We have this weird situation where TV went widescreen 25 years or so ago, all TV shows fitted the new screens we all bought, and then recently they've been trying to look more cinematic so have introduced…

  • When are the proper reviews out? Later today?
  • They’ve done a good job in scaling the fabric there; that’s usually my issue with these things, that the clothes look wrong. But those look good.
  • Oh, never noticed that before.
  • Just for fun someone's knocked this together. Don't get me wrong, I hope they haven't done it like this, but it's nice to see just for the sake of it
  • Lovely! Will you be doing any podcasts or anything like that about this one do you know? I remember listing to one you did when LALD/Octopussy came out and it was very interesting to hear how it came together and the ins and outs of it. I'd also …
  • When is his Inspector Lynley show on? Seems to be taking a while, although I guess it feels like an Autumn series.
