  • Australia. This beautiful creature is screaming out for a plot inclusion in Aussie adventure Quantum of No Solace... (Spoiler) M: "You were supposed to be in Sydney last night. I'm afraid this unfortunate moth business has clouded your judgmen…
  • Maybe Felix can be played by...a cigarette lighter? Let's try: Bond: "Felix? You there?" Felix: "Oh, Hi James. I see you bought Strutter's car. He would've liked that." Bond: "Felix, I need your help. You're the only one I can trust." Felix: "…
  • TLD underrated?! :)) Yeah, and Hugo Drax smoked cigarettes. It's a 'Top 3' film - not at the top of the Top 3 films but the third one down from the top, at the bottom of the trio.
  • Good points, @DarthDimi. Except for that very last point. I didn't like that at all! mtm wrote: » It is indeed! I do like a Bond-on-the-bomb climax! :D So my memory of the ending of TB is hazy: if the bombs are safely under the sea does that m…

  • We've had 'Hurricane Gold', now prepare for Hurricane White: Matt Smith's in this one, playing mysteriously character Matt White.

  • Liparus boat for the win. Nearly went with GE only because of the effects of the MiG. When the third jet crashes, it bounces around a bit and clearly does not have the weight to dig into the ground more or break apart more on impact. The footage …

  • @Agent_99 The drink sounds great. Bond's world could certainly do with more orange. Oh, and: Riff raff? What is this, the 'No Quarrels Club'?! (Spoiler)

  • I do a get a kick out of seeing the veteran Bond with years of experience take control of the situation effortlessly. And for Craig-Bond, years of experience quitting MI6 evidently, landing that visitor badge in Moneypenny's rubbish bin every time n…

  • Was keen on Edgar Wright. Oh well.
