  • To quote Lieutenant Vasquez from ALIENS, “ Whatever you’re going to do, you’d better do it fast” ! 😏
  • It had two things going for it and both were squandered; the first was a clean d sad late. At the end of SKYFALL we had a Bond who was enthusiastic about a return to service; we also had the rights to Blofeld required. The could have done a film th…
  • For me what made SPECTRE such a gut punch , and why it ranks dead last for me, I in part because my expectations were so high.

  • Take your vitamin D, specifically D3. I take 5000IU This doctor knows her stuff; she is spot on.

  • As part of EMS I've had contact with several people who have had it, including two of the guys that I work with. Fortunately they had no complications. I work in very close quarters with these Firefighters; we eat at the same table, use the same kit…
  • I'm amazed at the number of people who dislike TWINE; It's possibly my favorite of the Brosnan films and is in many ways a classic Bond film. Like all of the films, It's not perfect but there are a lot worse.
  • Five years or so on I can see it.
  • This just proves how convoluted the inclusion of this car is. Having it be the car he won would have provided a continuity for which the Craig era strived.

  • Plot hole, lapse in logic, whatever someone wants to call it, the final quarter of the film is not as tight as it could be.
  • MakeshiftPython wrote: » What plot holes? Silva knows exactly where and when he and Bond are going to be in order to set off an explosion at the precise moment that a train is passing so that it crashes down on Bond? Bond and M go alone …
  • Skyfall has some major plot holes and lapses in logic; with that said, it is one of my favorites and is immensely re-watchable. I think a script polish, to close the plot holes, by someone like Christopher McQuarrie, could have resulted in the pe…
