Timmy Dalton had a great little comma in TLD.

Sh1t!!! @mtm... Niceeeeeeee find. My god...

Smug and forgettable. And the voice didn’t bother me in Bullet Train, but if Bullet Train were a Bond film, the voice would grate.

Golf with Goldfinger— at least I have a shot at winning.

I love The Undiscovered Country. Plummer was brilliant and I love the whole whodunnit mystery about this installment.

😂 Love the reference!!! Now Towne was a writer…. I agree about P and W; I think they can launch concepts in outlines and maybe a draft or two. And I’d love to see what Will Smith and a couple of his writers could do from there on out. Slow Horse…
