Okay. So I just finished Live and Let Die. I had started reading it way back in Sept/Oct. 2022, but had put it down after reading chapter five, because I had a bit of difficulty with the racist stereotypes. I had intended to pick it up and continue …

I am now of the opinion that every car model that has be used previously in the films needs to go. This even includes my beloved favorite Bond car: 8-> Nope, nope. All gone. I'm still down with having Aston Martins, but different models.

TB and DN are top five entries for me, with TB ranked second out of all the Bond films. With DN, in every conceivable way I prefer the novel, but then I adore that book all out of proportion. Still love the film very much, though. Many of you would …

With the whole public domain thing coming up in ten years, that might be the in that Tarantino needs to finally make his CR movie, if he eschews a number of Bond elements that'll stay under copyright. This is also assuming he hasn't retired from fil…

It's been six months since I've visited these forums. Every time I return, this thread is always flatlining. I've got the defibrillators ready... CLEAR! (I'm finally close to finishing up Fleming's LALD novel, so Solitaire is very fresh in m…

It was a disappointment for me only in the sense of it coming after SF, which was way better, but I still really, really liked it. Still do now.

SP, although I do really like QOS. I'd much rather watch CR a thousand times in a row than either SP or QOS once, but that's neither here nor there...

Twinings Earl Grey, two packets of sweetener. Also, Twinings Lady Grey, and either Twinings English Breakfast or Irish Breakfast with milk and sweetener. I also like a few herbal teas by Harney & Sons, namely Paris, Cherry Blossom, and Celebrati…

He's not famous, but yesterday (December 24th) was my older brother's 47th birthday. He and I are both Bond fans, going back to November/December 1995 when we saw Goldeneye in the theater. I was 16, he was almost 19. Good memories. Happy birthday, b…

I have always been frankly baffled why so many here love OP and then disregard TB. To me, that's sheer lunacy. I don't mean to insult fellow fans in saying that, but to me, TB is light-years ahead of OP in every conceivable way.

It's Saturday. I don't care. I've missed this.

Big screen. New movies should always be on the big screen. We kill that, we kill the art of film as we know it. Plus I don't have Amazon Prime, and I'd rather hook my genitals up to a car battery than get it. To hell with Amazon and the Lex Luthor-e…

One of my top 5 favorite films ever. I grew up with it. I was watching it with my best friend/roommate and he'd never seen it before. He seemed to like it okay, but he particularly loved the Lardass story.

It's been a hot minute since I've been here. 10 frickin' months. I've missed this place. Anyway, I was thinking at first of Spectre, but I recognize the film's flaws while still very much enjoying it. So I'd say For Your Eyes Only. There are only…

Late Spring, 1949. Directed by the great Yasujiro Ozu and starring the absolutely wonderful and lovely Setsuko Hara. I've previously seen another Ozu film, Tokyo Story, which also starred Hara, though her role in Late Spring is as the lead, unlike i…

Some months ago, I posted this in the Bond 26 fan arts thread a poster of a possible Risico film. I found that Risico logo online somewhere. It's perfect, in my estimation:

It's been a good while. I feel like my eyes are aching to see Claudine. And what a sight to see indeed. I adore Claudine in long hair, but she looks really lovely in short hair too. It helps I have a weakness for short dark hair on women. So…

Death In The Cards or just In The Cards maybe Quick Of A Knife, which I got from the lyrics to a Bruce Springsteen song ('Jungleland').
