Young 20somthing Bond would be interesting. I'm not sure what the hell Craig was supposed to be. Ex Con Bond maybe.

Seth Rogen will ruin The Green Hornet :down: as Craig has ruined Bond :down: . I also watched Norton's Hulk on HBO for the first time yesterday. What junk :down: . It's obvious guys like Norton and Rob Reiner love to make the USA military look like fanatics. I can do without either. Nortons Incredi...

"GRR! Bond Smash!"

They said that in the Rifftrax commentary when Bond ran through a wall,. One of the few walls in the known world with nothing behind it but more running track

For the second time in a week I find myself reviewing a movie that seems to channel the spirit of Michael Bay, preferring flashy action sequences to actual substance, and as much as Bond is often about the increasingly inventive ways Bond can get out of sticky situations or defeat a wrong-un, this ...

did any of you see the promo for Inglourious Basterds? I thought for moment it was mixed with cuts from Defiance. Turned out to be a Nazi on his knees

Sorry I missed the Harry Potter discussion. I wanted to point out that Harry Potter beat the 46 year 22 movie James Bond franchise with 6 movies in 8 years.

The DVD was on the internet months before it was for sale in stores. I don't think that is the cause of poor sales that's the movies fault there.

Who is saying that? The fanboys? Winehouse had her chance and blew it, more than that screwed it royally. I don't seem them wasting their time on her again. I am amazed that Crackhouse hasn't overdosed yet. She may yet. I not saying she is the favorite it is what people taking the odds are saying s...

This is so true. It may be one of the few book series that do not establish the character as he starts his new job which is an anomaly for movies that tend to start before day one and follow him through his first mission to where he becomes the hero we expect him to be: Batman, Spider-man, Hulk, Sta...

They are saying Leona Lewis or Amy Winehouse will preform the next theme song

there was certainly a "gay" vibe in Casino Royale that was not in any of the other Bond movies before it

Jim Sheridan? According to IMDB he has 3 in pre-production (counting Dream House) 1. Dream House (details only on IMDbPro) 2. Ikiru (details only on IMDbPro) 3. I, Claudius (details only on IMDbPro) And 3 in production now # Emerald City (2010) (announced) # Black Mass (2009) (pre-production) # Brot...

For me Donald Pleasence is Blofeld

They are already talking about spending less on the next one. I don't know if there will be a choice in the matter.

I don't get what the money is spent on. Seriously bloated production team. I think the whole family must cash a check.

1 The Wrath of Khan - If you can't vote for Kahn can who can you vote for? Great movie. 2 The Search for Spock - Christopher Lloyd as Klingon what is there not to like. Good follow up to Kahn. 3 First Contact - Who doesn't love the Borg Queen. Seriously. Who? Data? Picard? Kirk? ....Pike? 4 Star Tre...

Last movie I watched was Pink Panther 2. Steve Martin does a serviceable job as the inspector but I would rather be watching Peter Sellers

Can you guess which film it is?

First Contact - my favorite of the original 10

That was a good one.

Why am I not surprised?
