Joblo.com:Chris Bumbray:......... "Luckily, Brosnan is in top form. Looking trim, and elegantly dressed in very James Bondian suits (although he never wears a tie or a tux – that would be too obvious), he hasn’t missed a beat as an action hero. It’s mostly low-key fisticuffs and gun fights, but Brosnan looks cool, and gives the character an edge Bond wouldn’t be allowed to have, although it goes way too far in a scene where he almost kills a young woman just to make a point (see what I mean about the misogyny?). That’s a tough scene to come back from, even if you are as charming as Brosnan, and truth be told it stops the movie cold, as he’s never shown before this to be any kind of sadist, but rather someone you’re supposed to root for. It's mind-boggling anyone involved thought this was an effective moment. Rather, it's a disgrace considering this is supposed to be a "fun action flick". Nevertheless, Brosnan performs well otherwise, and could probably still play James Bond should the Broccolis ever decide to give him a one-off in between Daniel Craig Bond’s (which I’d actually love to see)."

Bet you that will be every Craigski's favourite scene, assuming they can allow themselves to praise anything with Brosnan in it.

That seems kind of low. I hope it exceeds that prediction by several standard deviations.

007′s globe-trotting adventures will take him to Austria in Bond 24. Specifically, the small mountain town of Obertilliach, population 712. It’s unclear whether Obertilliach will be playing itself in the film, or standing in for another location. Shooting will take place in January for about three days. Bond 24 lands November 6, 2015

I'd have thought if Bond was going to Austria, then the town of Fücking should definitely be on his itinerary. :twisted:

And there's my cue to seal myself inside my bunker, until the 'Bond#24 is the best Bond film, Craig is the best Bond/best Bond since Connery' talk is over.

That was north of San Francisco-I'm in Southern California. We occasionally get earthquakes in San Diego and sometimes can feel the ones in L.A.(100 plus miles north).I've lived in California my entire life and I dunno..you just get used to it.. even, dare I say it, blase'.

What about FBF? He also lives in California.........Sin City: A Dame to Kill For opened in eighth place with just $6.48 million. That's down a stunning 78 percent from the original Sin City's debut...........it's no competition at all next weekend for NM. It will interesting to see if NM's box office surpasses the low projections being forecasted.

California is a huge state..we drove up to Oregon when my brother was in college..and let me tell you that was a long-a$$ road trip. It's funny, the last few times we've gone to Santa Barbara (a 3 and a half to 4 hour drive) it seems like we make good time getting there-even with traffic in L.A.

I hope NM becomes Pierce's best since GE.
