  • Love Sope. And I skew towards more to what actors like he project. But Hoult is so bloody charming and likeable, that, although I can’t really picture what his Bond would be like, I have a feeling he’d be magnetic and highly enjoyable; that he’d …
  • Slow Horses is top to bottom the best series at the moment. The humour is on point. The stories are bloody thrilling, and this past season exceeded the greatness that came before. And Gary Oldman is a magician-genius (and I swear I can smell him …

  • It’s funny when ppl bring up outliers to prove a point. Fast and Furious is a dead-man walking series. Its last film is limping into cinemas in April. And after that? It’s just another dead action series. Like Indy (unfortunately). Two out of F &…
  • I wish, just wish I wasn’t making this post in response to my good friend, Deke, but John Wick, a series I love, is only four films in since its inception. Its spin off had major issues and needed rewrites and almost a year of reshoots. The tv se…
  • @bondywondy ... But Amazon purchased all of MGM and their titles. It's not a tactical blunder, and it's not like buying a building and leaving it vacant: MGM isn't just Bond. It's thousands of hours of content that they're capitalizing on via …
