    Maybe we can set that up. I'll see what my work schedule is like this week. It's been a lot of fun watching these on this site. Great times.

    in my best possible Plenty O'Toole impersonation:
    Likewise.... You know something, ToTheRight? You're a terrific guy! A little weird, but a terrific guy! Why don't we go someplace and watch another Bond? :P ha ha

    Doing this a bit different than usual, I'll watch about 10 minutes or a sequence and then I'll pause to give my comments.

    After watching a great many classics of the past I don't have a lot left in my Bondathon.
    Four out of six I have yet to watch are from the newer eras.

    If anyone feels like doing a joint viewing of any film let me know. I can always take a break from this one:

    Even if this is a film I'd call "new content" I liked it. There are the typical horrendous attributes you'll find in today's cinema and that certainly will prevent it from ever going very high in my ranking. There is enough classic stuff in it though to get me into a forgiving mood.
    At least that's how it went down with my first viewing of:

    SKYFALL

    I might throw one in if I pretty soon if I get bored watching The Rose Bowl, which is almost inevitable.

    ok, sounds good, whenever it’s good for you

    Skyfall's pre-credits-sequence is pretty meh.

    If it wasn't for Judi Dench, it'll be one of the worst. The colors look washed out to brownish, and then it changes to cold blue when we are in London. The constant back and forth between the two is most jarring.
    The score is way too serious without the usual melodic playful lightness that Arnold or Barry provided.
    Not even going to comment on Bond being hit by a high velocity bullet and falling to his death. Water is like concrete if you fall like that.
    Luckily I remember Skyfall getting much more better once the movie passes the 30 minute mark.

    it's funny how I instantly recognized this a classic when I saw it first, everything shouts greatness so far including Shirley and the body projection of film clips

    The only Leiter that I really dislike is John Terry in TLD.

    I think I agree on that. He seemed wrong.

    Connery with Jill is especially delicious.

    ...I'm so glad.
