For what it's worth, I don't think Amazon will try and emulate any one Bond picture. They bought this IP because they feel they can produce audience friendly movies that will make buckets load of cash, worldwide. And like any good producers, t…

TLD > FYEO… TLD is top 10 QOS = LALD (mood dependent but enjoy both immensely; and yes, Moore had a great debut).

@thedove , my friend, I cannot argue with one thing you listed. Shanahan has been the biggest disappointments. I loved him growing up. He was one of the toughest competitors. But as President, nothing but a wet napkin and lets the kids walk all over…

Thanks for the kind words about the Leafs, @Last_Rat_Standing ... I'm definitely of the same mind, and with a few tweaks, we should be competitive for a few more years. And there's something about Marner and Chicago, isn't there (Bedard and he wo…

NTTD took over my number one spot, and has stayed there...so, although I have great fun with TSWLM, I'll go for Craig-Bond and all his missing pieces, Madeleine, Mathilde, Safin and Blofeld and a new 007, any day of the week (my next viewing will be…

@AnotherZorinStooge ...Moore said Tanya Roberts was younger than his daughter; he didnt say that about Bouquet. Edit: from an MI6 article: Famously, Roger Moore said he decided to end his run as James Bond when he realized Tanya Roberts' moth…

I’d go with SF, BUT @ColonelAdamski ’s sentiments totally align with mine regarding the special nature of the 60s films (please don’t virtually punch me, Colonel, 😂 . You made great points above). They’re magical. And everything that came after felt…

I know LTK gets panned (rightfully), for cheap looking sets that were shot terribly (making it look sitcom-level in the early parts of the film), and gets little taps on the wrist for trying to compete with the Die Hards and Lethal Weapons of the da…

Bond leaves before the child is born in NTTD too, but the film asks the question: what would Bond do if he came back? I don't think there's anything wrong with putting Bond in new situations and seeing how he'd react: the last novel was written 60 y…

Not the guy who should be directing Bond…but I bet he’s on their short list, lol: https://deadline.com/2025/04/road-house-2-guy-ritchie-directing-amazon-mgm-sequel-1236381424/

It seems officially the project hasn’t moved into preproduction yet— there is, as far as the industry is concerned (and not from Insneider-types), that no writers have been attached, nor a director. If this holds (and IMDbpro has B26 as “announc…

Maybe my messaging is being lost over the post, but I’m not upset in any way. I just saw one poster seemingly not content hearing why others may like a film, they also put down others and I just chimed in. Thanks for the message @j_w_pepper , …

Criticism is fine and fair, but after weeks and weeks of posts by one person, it’s clear they’re trying to control what ppl like and don’t like. It was odd, and I finally responded to it. I didn’t expect my reply to be considered ill-intended. Or co…

Kind of uncalled for. Criticism/critical thinking is one thing. Coming on one thread for weeks at a time to say the same thing over and over, telling people why they shouldn't consider a film a favourite, or one of the best in a series is another.
