    OHMSS lends it's self to being upscale to 4k, though I want the Bond 4K box set now Eon, the earlier films will look phenomenal

    That would be nice. Being a completionist, I will just be very glad to get a (hopefully) great box set of all 25 Bond films with Craig's run being finished. But that won't be until 2020.

    I have the Bond 50 box set on Bluray, upto OHMSS also on digital downloads it's great having Bond on phone or tablet ;) Watching the digital stream of OHMSS on my 4k TV now great picture though a fraction below the Bluray

    The Gumbold scene looks vivid, films shot in film will look better and better because of the original film negatives they can continually be upscaled

    There is almost zero noise on this film

    On Her Majestys Secret Service this film should never be abbreviated, the pre title sequence is arguably the best scene in the entire series...

    I watched "Becoming Bond" for the first time last night. I'd highly recommend it if you haven't seen it yet. Very funny.

    (casting director on the phone)
    "Listen, we're trying to find a replacement to Sean Connery...no Roger Moore is completely wrong for the part"

    For sure. I think most people, love or hate SP, can agree this is one of, if not the film’s best part.

    TOMORROW NEVER DIES

    This viewing will be interrupted by errands, but I felt like watching the PTS- now I'm at the Carver meeting Mickey G scene.

    David Arnold nails it from the get go. I can remember thinking this one felt far more like a classic Bond than GE just from Arnold's score.

    The audience laughed at all of M's quips.

    The guy at the newstand just before Bond steps into frame has a very 1997 hair do.

    He's very much Bond here. Effortlessly cool. I need to pop in Pierce's films more often. Pure entertainment.
    I love how he needles Carver at the party. We need a Craig scene like this.
    Also Pierce has a habit of addressing the villain by their first name.

    I believe I read back '97 that some of the henchmen pounding on Bond were stuntmen on DR NO. Not sure if that's accurate.

    The Paris seduction. Did I get too .........close?
    Pierce has some great facial expressions here.

    It seems Pierce has a little trouble with her dress. Roger would have used his Rolex.

    I always thought if The Muppets did a version of "Dracula" they way they did "A Christmas Carol" , Jonathan Pryce would have made a good Dracula.

    I really LOVE this section where Bond is sneaking into Carver's publishing office and press room.

    When he pushes over the satellite ,is pure old fashioned 'kiss my arse' Bond.

    Pierce-10 years after Remington Steele looking the business. Bond opens the safe.

    Had Ian Ogilvy been cast as Bond in the 80's, I could really see him doing this type of scene.


    Looking for a news story?
