What 8/10! You Jedi git! :evil: :evil:

Only joking and nice to hear from you. :cheers: Skyfall was terrible. Craig is suddenly an older jaded agent. Most of it is filmed in the dark. It includes a turgid ending in a field with the Purvis and Wade invented Bond backstory (he has a dilapidated family house in the middle of nowhere with Father Christmas living there). "My names Eve, Eve MONEYPENNY". Embarrassing. "If I may quote Tennyson" - the most embarrassing moment in cinema history. Or maybe that was "It's a bloody big ship".

The insipid modern adaption of Casino Royale with Craig as a young agent, trying on his first tuxedo :shock: was the best Craig Bond - and I think all copies of Casino Royale should be buried underground with the other toxic waste at the New Mexico Waste Isolation Pilot Plant.

Did anyone see the video of this? Is skywalker being held somewhere!?? Was he blinking in code?! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :lol:

Glad you are doing well Skywalker! Miss seeing you. Hope you come around a little more often if you can.

For me my life long bond ties were broken in 2006, I don't intend to go to another Bond movie until the actor changes and then maybe only that once if the movies are not any better than what I saw in 2006. Craig broke the enchantment I had with the series and it's going to stay that way as long as he has the job. I cant see anything making me want to see another with him in it. Nothing personal against him its my feelings for the series.

Chief of Staff, 007's gone round the bend. Says someone's been trying to feed him a poisoned banana. Fellow's lost his nerve. Been in the hospital too long. Better call him home.

Getting rid of DC won't solve anything right away. The real problem is Babs, who might as well hire wrestlers/fighters who can act and the likes of Marty Feldman in terms unattractiveness to take over once DC retires.
