  • Thanks for setting up these discussions, @thedove …. It’s been interesting reading the different perspectives of films we’ve seen over and over….
  • Most of Leitch’s movies underperform. Especially his latest efforts. Fall Guy was estimated to bring in $35- 40 million this weekend, BUTTTTT….Estimates have now dropped to $25 million. On a $140 budget (not including P&A), it’ll be very luck…

  • Three Kills of An Assassin That's all I've got... Trying to think of massaging the use of bullets into a title, but it comes off sounding like a Steven Segal Seagal flick...

  • And Gregg isn't the only Wilson. He has a brother who has been in and out of the business over the years. But it's clear that they're training Gregg, and I believe the plan is for Gregg to work with BB when the day comes that MGW hangs em up. …

  • Because we use the word "family" to discredit different opinions. You know, "nobody can do it better". But I never used the word “family” to discredit anyone, @DEKE_RIVERS !! I literally used it to say, in comparison to the huge studio system…

  • 💯 💯 💯 @007ClassicBondFan , and what a sixty plus year legacy it is. No other film series can come close to the accomplishments of EoN. And comparing the size of EoN to the monoliths that other film series were born from, this family outfit is the…

  • Classic bond is what the average man thinks he is capable of in his dreams, Craigs bond is what the average man thinks he's capable of when he's drunk. 😂! The Boogie Man is gone, @Mendes4Lyfe . Have fun on another thread. Try one of the ga…
  • @007ClassicBondFan tell this to the fans who point out peirces pain face at every opportunity, or Moores use of stunt doubles. Been 30 years, surely they must be getting tired by now. I’ve been on this site since 2012. Personally speaking,…

  • @007HallY , it’s difficult to have a discussion when there are false representations being presented. It’s Straw Man argument tactics mixed in with paragraphs of word salads. When you strip everything away, it’s simply an obsession of passionate …

  • Agreed about the deep water line— hated it the first time I heard it, despise it now, 😂. It doesn’t get better with age!! And the Bunga Bunga line was great!!! And you’re right @007HallY , so specific I wasn’t even sure if I heard it correctly th…
