  • Breaking News?!! The guy who looks homeless was asked, “what’s next (after 28 Days…), and he shrugged “can’t talk about it”. When an actor is in negotiations for any role (*any*), they won’t discuss the project because it’s not a done deal. Th…
  • The role of Bond should never be closed to anyone, especially because of race and ethnicity. It’s who best represents the qualities of the character *today*, and beyond that, who best to handle one of film history’s biggest IPs. Which man can handle…
  • Congrats, @Last_Rat_Standing ...Florida are stone cold killers. Assassins. If Edmonton played any other team for the Cup, they'd likely be back to back champs. Florida is like an octopus, tentacles everywhere that strangle the opposition. I th…

  • @Mendes4Lyfe : no insiders reported that Cuaron was going to direct the next Bond picture. Only World of Reel and his buddy, The Insneider. And those two have abysmal records when it comes to agent 007. If you speak to anyone in the industry, …

  • I’ve always read the Ferris wheel scene as the first moves in seducing Kara, but there’s no way they were intimate. They were interrupted. By the time Bond accepts Kara making him a martini, tells me that they were lovers by this point (hence why…

  • I assumed Bond and Kara were already intimate by the time they were in Kamran Shah's compound. And once there, they have their lover's spat, then we cut away from them when their kissing becomes a little more passionate. I certainly think this is…
