Halloween Kills has been moved from October 2020 to October 2021. I'd be amazed if NTTD actually comes out this year.

Didn't they actually move it forward by a week or two? I dunno, it's hard to keep track.

Sometimes I think the only reason we have riots is that it's the only way to get attention. A riot makes the front page, a peaceful protest gets one or two column inches on page 27.

I don't often see eye to eye with BJ politically, but I do agree that there shouldn't be one rule for protesters and another for everybody else. Several of the BLM protests (the peaceful ones that were too "boring" to make the news) managed to observe social distancing guidelines, so it is possible.

If there is herd immunity it’s in California, problem is 6 months on our best and brightest will not say what this covid is for sure, if it can be caught again there is no good answer.

Herd immunity requires a vaccine to work.

I had a strange Craig dream. In it I was attending the NTTD premiere in a big brightly lit auditorium. Daniel Craig was sitting next to me and had long blue hair. He then got on stage and introduced the film. What does that one mean! It means you vant to kill your fazzer unt schleep viss your muzze...

Screenrant.com: The main reason Daniel Craig didn't want to be James Bond was the fame that comes with it. Instead of being an actor who could still be somewhat unknown, Craig knew that playing 007 would immediately make him one of the most recognizable people on the planet. He told GQ, "It was gen...

Now prince harry had done bond premieres before, eon has liked to invite somebody from the royal family to attend the premiere, the royals usually do to seem in touch with the common man. And eon an American company seems endorsed by the British royals He quit the royal family, though, in the hope ...

I was thinking of how dalton was saddled with the moniker of the guy who almost killed the bond franchise. Again pierce was a savior from the devil dalton to casual fans but the studio never attacked dalton the closest was the “were you expected if somebody else” teaser. Some people have interprete...

I was think of LTK and Dalton's reputation.

Not sure that's quite the same. Dalton was never that popular with the casuals to begin with (though the fans liked him), so LTK didn't do as much damage to his reputation as DAD did to Pierce's.

I'm glad Turner had not made a Bond movie that was to be released this year. That really would have been annoying. That's true. Craig coming back for a fifth film may turn out to be a blessing in disguise. Hopefully NTTD will not only flop, but tarnish Craig's entire legacy the way DAD somewhat unf...

Weird bond dream, NTTD opens up but is struggling EON put some promotion in place where kids in the pg13 rating can buy a ticket and get credit towards the arcade. No clue if arcades are a big deal at movie theaters like when me and my brothers were growing up. Just a nonsense dream Sent from my iP...

Moore and Brosnan are the only ones who were really known before they became Bond, and both of those were from TV. Connery, Craig and Dalton were all bit part players before Bond, while Lazenby got the role off the back of an advert. I think Aidan Turner is roughly where Roger and Pierce were before...

"Jamie Fraser" is NOT Bond. Outlander is another time travel story with nudity thrown in on the Starz cable channel here. It is similar to the Dark Shadows 1966-1971 soap opera that was popular here which dealt with time travel to the past and back to the present. https://filmdaily.co/wp-content/up...

OK, I just watched a couple of minutes of Outlander on TV to check this Heughan guy out. Based on the little bit I saw, he wouldn't be my first choice for Bond, but he wouldn't be terrible either. I still want Turner or, failing that, Cavill, but I could live with Heughan.

Gets a bit boring just saying "great rant, Benny" every time, but...great rant, Benny!

Radiotimes.com has a poll on who should replace Daniel Craig as Bond. I voted for Aidan Turner, though Sam Heughan seems to be leading the pack at the moment. Don't think I've seen him in anything, so I have no opinion on him either way. Link: https://www.radiotimes.com/news/film/2020-06-17/james-bo...
