  • I'm finding it hard to pick five now that we're past Avengers and Dark Knight. 1 Skyfall, naturally. 2 Dredd! Thanks for reminding me! I hope it has some of the black humour and satirical edge of the comics. 3 The Bourne Legacy, although I'm a …

  • I forgot to say, the next car is the one from LALD that took Bond from the airport into New York, you know, the one he ends up driving from the back seat after the driver is killed by the 'pimpmobile'. I always liked that car so I'm looking forward …

  • I use a line from LTK. Sanchez surprises Heller that he knows what Bond's old job was. "How do you know that?" asked Heller. "I know things," replies Sanchez taking a sip of his coffee. So whenever I surprise someone with some obscure knowledge…
