It just goes to show how tricky casting can be/the instincts needed. 💯 💯 💯

Don’t check-out yet: game seven may be the most exciting Stanley Cup final in decades.

I’m not disagreeing with any of the above, although it’s somewhat reinforcing my opinion that Campbell may be a nuts and bolts action director, but he may lack in the visualization of character/actor (he knew that Craig was more talented, but, at th…

I’m gonna come back to this— all are pretty fantastic @thedove . Nice choices! Seriously difficult!

I can’t believe how terrible he is. It’s astounding. I’m really shocked, I think that’s what I’m trying to get across.

My hand is up, @thedove … i honestly can’t believe this…

My point being: this guy was willing to forgo talent and choose Cavill because he appeared more close to the image of James Bond. Not good. Watching Argyll shows an actor who actually may be getting worse, not better. Secret Agent Man broug…

@SecretAgentMan⁰⁰⁷ , but Connery always had the "it" factor. He already had the raw materials to be a superstar, and especially had buckets of something that no one can teach: CHARISMA. If Young came back from the dead, he couldn't make Cavill an…

After finally watching Argyll last night, I'm a little more wary of Campbell: wasn't it common knowledge (until recently), that he was in the Cavill camp, and wanted Henry to be Bond? Watching Argyll last night, Cavill is incredibly disappointing…

It’s a very small minority who will ever be offended by seeing beautiful people who have won the genetic lottery, up on the big screen. Of course there will be gorgeous women in Bond films. I think modern audiences just want them to actually be d…

IMO opinion, going back, a third time, to a director, to make a magic again, wouldn’t necessarily instil confidence in me. We were lucky to get two bangers from Campbell, and, if he was hired in 2025/6/7, I would be just meh about it. There are m…

NTTD seems less official than NSNA but that's what you get when you kill James Bond. It will always seem alternative. 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂

I loved Happy Anniversary with Roger , when I was a kid. It has my vote.

I love Bambi and Thumper personally, but I’ve always thought the dog fight was very cool. Bambi and Thumper goes my vote.
