I think it was the Bond film to spend more time on location than any other BOND film. And that costs money.....I personnaly think QOS is a good looking Bond film stylishly shot.

Should be 100% but I accept not everybody has good taste ;)

'They sent a girl up to my apartment to make sure I wasn't gay. A little while later they had their answer. I sure as hell wasn't.'
Lazenby is a legend.

How is he a pig?
He is the perfect definition of a classless, piggish, fool. He rants and raves about all his conquests as if he thinks it makes him look cool for having had intercourse with all the OHMSS actresses or anyone the producers tossed at him. If you ask him how his experience a film was, he will connect that with having sex with an actress, or make an immature remark about how he was really busy on set, though not doing much acting, if you catch my drift. I can let it slide if you have relationships with co stars on a film you are in like Sean has of course done in his past Bond films at one time or another, but George is simply a pig about it. He has no honor about it to keep it private, and instead treats it like a game where he thinks he is always a winner. I will never enjoy his Bond as much because I know how much of an arse he was on set to everyone from the filmmakers/producers to the various women he nonchalantly had his way with. But that's okay. George doesn't give a damn if I don't like him, and the good thing about him is that I know he loves himself enough for everyone on the face of this earth.
Very cool!

I need to see this so I have a reason when the police arrest me at Joseph Ruben's home.

I like Moore and Connery equally.
Dalton last? Booooo. But his pic said most dangerous Bond ever (which he was) so I forgive them.
'Skyfall', the new James Bond movie directed by Sam Mendes, hits cinemas on November 9 and already attention is turning to whether or not the picture could snag a surprise Oscar nomination.
'Oscar bait' is a term often used to describe a movie awash with all the key themes that the Academy so readily rewards. For example, they're suckers for epic dramas (Titanic, Gladiator), romance (Shakespeare in Love, The English Patient) and movies packed full of previous Oscar winners (Traffic, The Kings Speech). Oscar bait movies usually hit cinemas at the same time each year- in November or December, wafting themselves under the noses of the Academy just weeks before nominations are announced.
This year, Sony seems to have thrown 'Skyfall' into the fray as Oscar bait, so does the film have a realistic chance of a nomination? Well, as HitFix.com rightly points out, the movie has attached an Oscar winning director in Mendes, an Oscar winning and three time nominated actor in Javier Bardem and an Oscar winning actress and six-time nominee in Judi Dench. Its screenwriter is a three-time nominee while cinematographer Roger Deakins is a nine-time nominee who is almost certain to scoop the prize come February if industry insiders are to be believed. Deakins - best known for his work on just about every Coen Brothers movie - is revered in the movie business and often considered the finest cinematographer of all time. On top of all this, Skyfall's production designer, art director and second unit director have all been handed nominations in the past: i.e - the movie has all the bases covered.
Though missing out on a nomination for Best Picture, Daniel Craig's Casino Royale withstood critical scrutiny and was generally considered one of the most impressive Bond movies for years. Some Academy big wigs reportedly dished that it was their favorite film of the year, though while their hearts said Casino and Craig, their heads ultimately opted for The Departed, The Queen and Babel; Forest Whitaker, Leonardo DiCaprio and Ryan Gosling.
The race for the Oscar for Best Picture is already saturated with strong candidates; Paul Thomas Anderson's The Master will be the critic's choice, though Steven Spielberg's Lincoln appears to possess all the hallmarks of an Oscar winner. Meanwhile, Ben Affleck's Argo is being quietly tipped and Les Miserables is almost guaranteed a nomination. Throw Life of Pi, Moonrise Kingdom, current bookies favorite Beasts Of the Southern Wild and a certain Mr Bond into the mix, and we sure could have one hell of an Oscars come Februar

I already posted this...
Do you know how many epics have won Best Picture? The action overfill won't matter.
I'm talking recently, when they've only generally gone with arty films. The more recent nominations that could be classed as action films like District 9, Avatar, all had "messages" in them.
Anyway, I still don't care about it winning Oscars.
