I roll with the above. CS is a nice little tag to the Fleming collection, a bonus book if you will, but not surprisingly, its very different. The Fleming feel is not there. Again quite understandably. Amis is his own man. It's quite readable, …

The Lobster on DVD. 2015 A very strange film. Maybe it can be considered unsettling, but as it is so purposefully bizarre, it really isn't unsettling, rather it's just whacked. Single persons in this contemporary society ie. not futuristic, ar…

The two Wood efforts were good reads. But yes the recent spate of celebrity novelists; Faulks ughh, Deaver double ughh!!

Wait, Carte Blanche, the Deaver book, was set in modern time, while Boyd's Solo was firmly set in 1969. What does kind of trample on Colonel Sun's timeline though, was the Faulks book, Devil May Care, set in 1967, although you could allow that DMC…

11/22/63 action scene. James Franco and Sarah Gadon!

Now available on CD, as well as Blu-ray and DVD Stones live in Texas, 1972 Crank it up!

Poor Mulder, always duped , yet he always seemed like the smartest guy in the room. Who knew? There are probably aliens populating this message board too.

@BT3366 Good blog linked above. I read the Uncle 2015 review. Quite interesting. The burning of Uncle Rudi, was yes, a well played scene. Cavill nailed that. I will eventually pick up The Girl dvd sets, for completist purposes. The two sets are qu…

I think I'll read the Girl episodes reviews. I've never seen the Girl episodes, so reviews can sub for now. I burned through the complete series Man Dvd set a few years ago, and recently did a complete 10 film movieathon. I have the briefcase d…

One of the big differences between the book and film, is that book Vesper was not salvagable as a free woman. She was going to jail for life for espionage. Movie Vesper, though was quite salvagable. M even showed a soft spot. She was more a one-o…

I coincidentally finished my full Batman series viewing, including the movie, which slips in between, seasons 1&2, about 2 weeks ago. The boxset has some great extras which feature much reflection from West I'd like to do that Saint Persuader…

Adam West's Batman is IMO both the greatest and most iconic TV show ever made. I couldn't get enough of it as a kid. Oddly enough I just burned through the entire 3 season, complete series on blu-ray. What a romp! And best part is that I am pretty…

The above is true @devlin but still I think you want mature young guys in their fearless prime doing the blunt instrument work that the 00 section does.

I'm trying to track down the new Steve Cole, Young Bond, Red Nemesis, I think it's called. Amazon.ca doesn't have it yet. Anyone read it?

Fleming writes the mandatory 00 retirement age as 45, which for Bond in MR did seem like a long way off. But towards the end , Fleming plays with Bond's age to keep him under 45.

Syd was awesome last night! That was one clutch performance! I hope he wins this Cup and a couple more Sorry Smashville
