  • Social media like Twitter and Reddit are at their worst in reaction to Sean's death... I really do hate so many aspects of our modern society.
  • M_Balje wrote: » What even more frustrated is that Sean Connery have been the only Bond who can have seen all 25 (27) movies in the cinema. Why? All but one of the Bond actors were before 1962.
  • Now I'm really sad we didn't all get to see the Bonds together one last time in 2012 for the 50th anniversary like we were hoping. What a cherished moment that would be right now.

  • St. Peter — Your name, sir? Bond... James Bond. St. Peter — We already have one here by that name sir, I think you two will get along just fine.
  • Absolutely heartbreaking. 2020 has been such an awful year. Rest in Peace old chap. Nobody did it better.

  • Better than every Craig theme other than Adele's, and for me it ties with You Know My Name in 2nd place. Skyfall is definitely the better song, being more unique whereas this one feels a bit "generic Bond song". But honestly I don't mind "generic" i…

  • I'm not particularly a fan of Eilish or that kind of music, but I think it may work well with a Bond theme. Something about her weird vocals feels like it would fit right in. We'll see.
  • I don't really have much of an interest in Star Wars, I didn't grow up with the originals or the prequels. But I've gotten into The Mandalorian and absolutely love it. Especially the little Baby Yoda character, it's so funny. I feel like some of the…

  • I'm wondering what people think... with Daniel set to quit the role probably after Bond 25, do we think Ms. Lynch will be taking over the role of 007 in future entries? It would be the perfect opportunity for them to do something like that, and in 2…
  • "Fallen Kingdom" makes it sound cartoony to me, but that's just my opinion. I still look forward to it, and I can understand why they went with the Jurassic "World" brand, since the previous one with that name became the 4th highest grossing film of…

  • My preference would be a subtle reference to Moore at sometime during the course of the film... not at the credits or pre-credits. And not a blatantly obvious nod, just something subtle that only a rewatch or a hardcore fan will notice.
  • Still feeling very sad over Roger's death - I'm very glad to have a place to come and have others share in our mutual feelings of respect and despair over his loss. I was just thinking back to that rumor going around during the 50th Anniversary o…
  • Not sure if this has been posted yet, but here are the various reactions to his death from other Bond actors: Connery: I was very sad to hear of Roger’s passing. We had an unusually long relationship by Hollywood standards that was filled with …
  • Great Twitter stories about Sir Roger, brought a tear to my eye. He must have felt like a sort of Santa Claus when he was around kids who recognized him.
  • No! Oh my God this is devastating news, was it even public that he had cancer? Very saddened today by the loss of one of the nicest most humble and genuine men ever.
  • I'm pretty sure that in 2002 when DAD came out, people would have laughed at you for placing it last too... because the mentality of a Bond forum is always going to be in support of the newest Bond flick. I think you were treated unfairly Birdleson,…
  • For me, he's my second-least favorite Blofeld actor so far, just above 1981's cameo. He didn't convince me as Blofeld, even allowing for a non-traditional interpretation of the character. He just seemed like Christoph Waltz being Christoph Waltz, I'…
