When I saw AVTAK on opening weekend in 1985, I came out of it with the impression it was the worst Bond film yet. I don't feel that way in 2022, it's only the second worst, so of the nominees here, it's by far the worst. I think some are confusing d…

I've seen several references in this thread pointing to Connery wanting out due to the increasing emphasis on gadgetry and the fantastic. That was a factor, but what usually gets overlooked is besides his disagreements with the producers, one of his…

It's necessary to show why Bond has OO status from time to time and not just in offing a bunch of anonymous henchmen. DN is my choice for several reasons. The advertising in 1962/63 established this is a character with a licence to kill; he ain't…

I used to own NSNA on DVD and Blu, but when they went out of print and people were paying outrageous prices for them, I sold the Blu for like $68 and DVD for $40 about a decade ago on eBay. I figure it'll come out again at some point. Otherwise I ow…

Brolin got his chance to play secret agent and played it very well, IMO - P.W. Herman at the end of Pee Wee's Big Adventure.

Lots of points to ponder here. I've read that after Feldman couldn't land Connery's participation that he decided to go the comedy route with CR. Connery's disagreements with Cubby and Harry began long before YOLT, that was just the breaking poin…

Last week I was surprised to see one of the cinemas near me was showing DN for the anniversary as we in the U.S. aren't getting the rereleases every week. Then I saw the notice on here that Fathom's prints may not be worth the admission price. I not…

I was watching a Rocky marathon last weekend. They are still kind of timeless, although you do see flaws you didn't always notice early on, but not enough to distract. I recall watching the trailer for Creed and cringing, thinking it was a sell-out,…

I was just gifted a family friend's Bond soundtrack collection, which includes all the U.S. releases from DN-LTK (no NSNA). DN and LTK were the only ones I didn't have original pressings of. I love the LPs because for me as a young fan, they represe…
