Some stuff gets funnier every time.

I think that's where I first read about Bechtel and Bolivia and water costs.

Really his name is Elvis.... Why?

What was Foster thinking in the cutting room and how could Broccoli sign off on this trash?

Either the photography was so bad they couldn't get any good scenes to salvage, or they deliberately wanted to be obscure in the action to keep it cheap. ("You two mill about and punch the air a lot. We'll edit it into ACTION!!")

QOS was on Showtime again tonight. Foster's world view of the USA and UK the bad guys with Bond being reprimanded by M all of the time is pitiful. This is by far the WORST Bond film ever.

No way. DAD is the WORST Bond film ever....in fact it is the worst film ever.

AVTAK is a close second to DAD, IMO and QOS isn't far behind.

This chatter about DAD & QoS being awful says a lot for the people running EON now. They've only made one other film in the last 10 or 11 years - and that was dreadful too.

You might be right since Cr & QOs don't qualify as Bond films ;) Next we will be hearing all about what a brilliant take on Bond the golden compass or Cowboys and aliens is ;)

I don't think DAD is the worst bond film by definition too much has to be ignored about the other films. I would make it differently if they had bothered to ask me.
