I've just realised that I've never posted my thoughts on NTTD. Seeing as I gave it a rewatch a few days ago I thought I'd do so now. Initially when walking out the cinema I thought it was a decent if flawed Bond film. I liked the controversial…

The Q scene in GE is an example of where the nerves show to me. It seems like both Broz AND Des are uncomfortable infront of the camera, they are talking AT eachother delivering their lines rather than TO eachother. Certainly in comparison to the ne…

I think Craig gives possibly the best Bond performance in the whole series in CR (yes that includes Connery). He's certainly given a lot more to play in his debut than any of the other actors. With regard to Brosnan, he admitted that he was ve…

It's probably the best shot film since Moonraker.

As much as I love GE I think Royale is the more polished film. It sets out its tougher tone in the opening sequence (possibly my favourite PTS in the series) but adds the more colourful glamorous components as it goes along. The violence however …

GoldenEye is mostly well edited and directed and has a verve and energy to it that LTK frankly didn't have. GoldenEye also has more atmosphere to it than LTK does. I like LTK but overall it has a very flat un-stylistic look to it. Most of the locati…

Today my late granddad who passed away in 2014 would have turned 102.

I don't like The Hunt for Red October. I find it boring.

Moonraker is my favourite book. All the ingredients there and yet it never leaves England. The final few paragraphs are Fleming at his very best.

My picks: - Under Siege 2 - Taffin - Guest House Paradiso - Ali G Indahouse - jingle all the way

"and Brossa was in it but no one noticed" A great film but the reason I first watched it was because of him. I DID notice. He is part of one of the best endings in a British film. A small role but an important one in the film's context.

Watching Goldfinger right now

I admit I'm "feeling" his loss more than I expected. I didn't even know the man yet It feels like a true titan has gone. I was sad with Roger but accepted it fairly quickly. With Sean I think I'm still coming to terms with it as others seem to be. …

Im ashamed to say I hadn't watched any Connery films since his passing so decided last night to pop in a double bill of Dr No and From Russia With Love

Thought I'd pop in to express my condolences. Yesterday was the day we knew would come eventually but that doesn't make it easier. Sean Connery was obviously a legend of cinema that went way beyond Bond. Sorting the newspapers this morning at wor…

Very flirty indeed. There were a few other Moonraker people too. https://imgur.com/GSRYmOI

Met Corrine Clery today at the London Film Fair.

Went to a Bond fancy dress last night. Can you guess who we came as? Lol.

@LeonardPine I hate The Sun but I do think that headline was fitting for Freddie and something he would have probably found amusing.

Martin Compston from Line of Duty could act the socks off Sean Connery. I didn’t even know the former was Scottish until recently.

I think OP was one of Moore's strongest performances as Bond so no I don't think it would have improved with another actor. I DO think that a stronger female lead could have improved the film though as I'm not too fond of Maud Adams in this.

Thanks everyone :)

My dad’s dad sadly passed away earlier this evening. He’d had Alzheimer’s for several years. Horrible illness, but he at least isn’t suffering anymore. Alan Bain (1928-2019)
