I am not trying to stir things up, but with Bezos' move today against the newspaper Washington Post - clearly political - I worry that the next Bond movie will be political as well. He does have the power to dictate how it turns out, right? With him…

Gladiator II 7,5/10 Of course it's not as good as the first one, but Scott sort of redeems himself after last years failure, 'Napoleon'. It's a massive movie with real sets and plenty of setpieces, and although it kind of follows the same temp…

MI:7 had a weak plot and was mostly a Tom Cruise stunt reel. The trailer sadly looks more of the same.

@peter I don't necessarily consider making some bad decisions a character flaw unless it has become a trademark for the character. For me Bond was pretty much Bond, the same kind of larger-than-life character, up until the reboot in 2006. But I do …

With "role model" I was thinking more of a character that isn't flawed. Sort of the invulnerable hero type who can do no wrong. But yes, a flawed role model could be one that is depressed, takes many wrong choices, but in the end comes out on top o…

@mtm This is leading nowhere, and I find it a shame that one single paragraph (of mine) regarding comedy amidst a discussion about Bond, kickstarted by the great questions from Burgess, instead lead to a discussion about modern comedy instead. Y…

@007HallY Sure, lot's of comedies are being made, but most are not for me. I found the original Fletch movies from the 80's a laugh riot, but the remake with Jon Hamm didn't make me laugh once. Likewise I am not really into the Will Ferrell/Seth Ro…

Just rewatched the making-of featurette of 'Moonraker' to better understand why it's one of my favorite Bond-movies. It has Moore in his prime, John Barry, huge Ken Adam sets, the Meddings effects (nominated for an Oscar), some great dialouge, lense…
