  • @Zekidk don't you think that even in Moonraker, Bond isn’t perfect. He makes choices that get others killed (Corrine). They may not have gone deeply into the repercussions of Bond’s actions, but even in Moonraker he isn’t a perfect Superman. He make…

  • Hold Your Breath. We really enjoyed this psychological-thriller that takes place in a unique time in American history: the deadly dust storms of 1930s Oklahoma. Sarah Paulson stars and executive produces. She and her team did one helluva job. …
  • All of them… a film from each of the men that played the role.
