You're welcome, guys! Hope you enjoyed them :)

Here are some pics from my Key West summer trip 2 years ago: This is the famous Seven Mile Bridge which I'm sure you'll recognize from LTK, as well as from TRUE LIES. This is the hotel where we stayed Here is Sanchez's iguana (sans th…

That’s an excellent analysis of Craig’s Bond, but you gotta ask yourself one question... where is the raised eyebrow? I take points off if that is missing. That’s quintessential Bond, as brilliantly exemplified by the late great Sir Roger Moore. …

I simply look at the finished product and at the end of the day it’s *just* the Bond theme. It doesn’t matter if it was the first time the theme was played or the 37th time. It’s a Bond theme which, while cool sounding and Bondian, inexplicably fade…

Can someone tell me how to post/upload my Key West pics here? I guess the image URL thing only works if you have your pics uploaded somewhere online. I'm trying to upload them from my laptop. I'm guessing this is a shortcoming here.

Sure thing, barryt007. When I get a chance I’ll post some.

Title Track: LTK - I'm a fan of both LTK songs, the opener by Gladys and especially the closer by Patti which is a very romantic and bittersweet ballad marking the end of the Cubby era. Every time I watch those end credits roll by as Patti sings "If…

I agree that replacing a real Faberge egg (that is being sold publicly at Sotheby's) with a fake back at the Kremlin repository doesn't solve anything. In fact it makes things worse because it exposes that there's obviously forgery/smuggling going o…

Flyers, Sixers, Phillies, and Eagles fan here! I know Philly fans don't have the best reputation but hey these are my teams. Our underdog Eagles (without our star QB Carson Wentz no less) beat Brady and the much-hated Patriots and as you can imagine…

Title Track: TLD - the song by a-ha is one of the series' absolute best, right alongside Carly's and Sheena's gems!! Such an awesome 80s groove and beat!! Awesome synths!! I absolutely adore it!! Also let's not forget the romantic gem by the Pretend…

Title Track: AVTAK - no surprise here Title Credits: AVTAK - DN is a bit too simple (though I do like the dots) so I prefer the very 80s colorful style with the day-glo effects Main Villain: AVTAK - Zorin is hands down the greatest Bond villai…

Title Track: OP (I love Bond ballads) Title Credits: OP (one of my favorites - love the colors!) Main Villain: OP (between Kamal Khan and Orlov - it's no contest!) Main Bond Girl: DN (Maud and Rog have fine chemistry but Ursula set the stan…

I'll definitely be rewatching THE WILD GEESE soon. That film as well as FORCE 10 FROM NAVARONE are among my 2 favorites from 1978. CAPRICORN ONE is my favorite that year! There are 4 Roger Moore films that I have a difficult time getting my hands…

Anyone ever see ESCAPE TO ATHENA (1979)? So I was going to watch THE WILD GEESE which is available on YouTube (it's been a while since I've seen it) when I noticed the lesser known ESCAPE TO ATHENA available for viewing on YouTube. Since I've nev…

Don't know if anyone picked up on this but Sir Roger passed away on May 23, which is just a day short of when AVTAK premiered back in 1985, May 24.

My viewing last night here in Philadelphia (at AMC Neshaminy 24) was an absolutely magical experience. And I'm not exaggerating one bit! Anyone who remembers me from the James Bond board on IMDB remembers my undying love for Bond films in general (b…

Thanks! But this thread is dedicated to the incomparable Clifton James.

Hey there, pepper. Good to see you around! Don't see the rest of the crew around much. Not that I'm here much either. PRINCESS BRIDE over TLD for 1987??!! Oh come on! Would a red-blooded Bond fan really pick a movie with a "princess" in the title…
