  • William Moseley Is an interesting new name in the mix.

  • Isn't the next Indiana Jones also shooting, in part, in Greece?

  • My first reaction to a prequel was negative, but after giving it some thought, a film set in the sixties that shows the promise of a young Rocky and how he became a thumb breaker and back room brawler could be interesting, if done right, in the same…

  • Had it not been used for "The Saint" this one from Duran Duran would have been a worthy follow up to A View to a Kill.
  • One thing that I realized some time ago, and it is stating the obvious, is that an actor cannot be judged based on photographs alone. Some look great in photos but have little to average screen presence, while others take an average photo but have …

  • A one off? I would love to see Hugh Jackman play Bond , even just once. He could effortlessly combine the charm of Moore with the raw brutality of Craig. Not many actors can do that.

  • The problem with the end of SPECTRE isn’t what occurs on the bridge, it’s what transpires between the demolition of Blofeld’s base and the helicopter crashing.

  • I think a conclusion that is vague, but implies that Bond is alive followed by a lingering shot of Blofeld in a dimly lit cell would work. Bond has won and Blofeld has lost.
  • It’s not just Bond, just read, ‘ Indy climbs into a refrigerator which is then thrown several miles by an atomic blast; upon landing he exits , dusts himself off and carries on’ . Spielberg signed off on that. Lol.
