    There are plenty of Director's in their 70's still kicking.

    Maybe for the actor as Bond but I think it would be a little more lax for the Director. :))

    My home cinema viewing took a considerably more cinematic turn this evening when I fired up my new Optoma HD141X projector for the very first time. What was my début flick? Well, it simply had to be CR, didn't it. I have to say I was very impressed by the whopping ten foot wide picture. A cinch to set up too (good news for a technophobe like me!): plug it in, turn it on, connect to my Blu-Ray player with a HDMI cable... and there was Sir Daniel doing what he does best. CR truly is one humdinger of a Bond classic.

    And what about a decent sound system? What have you?

    It's a Sony 5.1 surround system that I've had a couple of years. Works a treat.

    This has previously been brought up; Campbell is a very fit, energetic, vital 72 year old, age is not an issue. I would love for him to bookend Daniel's tenure as Bond.

    It does make all the difference. Blew my brother's ears off when I put on CR to show off my new tv/surround sound system a few years back.

    Just finished TWINE. I love it. The plot, the soundtrack, Brosnan. Everything. 100% awesome.

    Dude, I like the film probably almost as much as you do, but keep it down... you might inadvertently ignite another Brosnan bash-fest.... just sayin'.

    Should we give a call to @Murdock and his shrinking machine?

  • Watching some extras from GF. Anyone thinks Bikel or Vandis could have made a good Goldfinger? I think Bikel was decent but, at least on the screen test, lacked 'hammyness' (and we are talking about the man who brought us that memorable: "I told you! I told you I'd do it! I told you but you wouldn't believe me!"). Vandis was way too plain-looking, suave-acting and downright ridiculous when sporting a ginger wig.

    I thought Bikel was great he would have been a great Goldfinger.He also seemed very physically fit.

    Sunday I plan on watching some of OHMSS as I wrap presents.
  • So the consensus is Bikel would have made a good to great Goldfinger? I'm taking note for future viewings of his movies, or listeining of his songs (I love that impersonation of him on Ren & Stimpy. And the funny thing is that he loved it, too, and would have liked to do the Happy Happy Joy Joy song himself if approached!).

    You Only Live Twice

    I'm glad to report that this version of Blowers had his socks on. Daft as a very daft thing, but it is saved, partially, by some fantastic production values.

    SPECTRE twice. The first time in IMAX, the second time on a smaller screen. I think I enjoyed it more the 2nd time and was able to picked up on things you miss the first time you see a film since you're initially taking it all in.

    On her Majesties Secret Service fantastic film and made truely wonderful watching it on Christmas time.


    I feel it does a few things better then spectre and Spectre does a few things better.


    But over all OHMSS is a top 10 film

    I have just got back from the Vue Cinema, T-Dalts double bill. Though I couldn't see any Major difference in the print from the DVD's, I did still enjoy the experience of seeing my two favourite Bond films on the big screen (for the first time), with Licence To Kill being the uncut version.

    @MajorDSmythe I know this has been a few months back but which Dalton film did you enjoy seeing on the big screen more, TLD or LTK?

    I think the off camera voice of Blofeld when they were looking at the meteorite was definitely supposed to evoke Dr. No's "One Million dollars."

    I get why you think that but for me the off camera voice reminded me more of Dr.No speaking to Dent, purely from a vocal perspective but when Blofeld shows up on screen and all 3 are talking about the meteor then yeah, that fits more in line with evoking the 1 million dollars aquarium scene.

    That's a tough call. Both had sequences that benefited from the big screen treatment. Ok, I will pick TLD, but only because it was/is my favourite Bond. I regret not attending the 6th double, to see OHMSS on the big screen.

    Bruce Willis was a poor Bond, though. Worse than Brosnan.
