There was an Old British comedian "Dick Emmery" who had a son and dad, sketch who were always stealing things etc,But really stupid, With the catch phrase "I did it again,Dad !" and they both wore denim jackets and jeans, Just couldn't that image out of my head after seeing these photos.
Could this be the equlivant of the Roger Moore Safari Suit, for all those Craig Fans

[Kristatos]

Utter junk.

That seems to be your opinion of most films. What was the last film you actually enjoyed?

[Alessandra]

Adventureland was just on Showtime again. It gets 3 stars by the media guide, yet Twilight and New Moon only get 2 1/2 stars. Kristen Stewart(Twilight saga), Jesse Eisenberg(The Social Network) and Ryan Reynolds(The Green Lantern) all came out of Adventureland and went on to big named films. I just watched New Moon on Showtime. Utter junk.

What were you thinking when you decided to watch New Moon? Anything Twilight is utter cr*p! No wonder this gets a I suggest watching some old movies that are actually good to make up for it. That's while staying at home. If you go to the movies, I hear the new Matt Damon one is good? I haven't seen it, though, so this isn't first-hand rating.

Any Twilight movie =two hours of your life you're not getting back I've read the books.They were alright. The first book is the best.The rest not so much.

Harry Potter. Most films these days are total trash. Name any outstanding ones, other than Potter. I am amazed the trash Hollywood turns out makes any money.

[katied]

Just saw a trailer for a horrible Starz-produced thing..Camelot.. Eva Green is in it(with too much makeup, as usual!)

[bjmdds]

All junk MP, all.

[katied]

That's about it.. Starz produces all the shows other cable networks turn down.

I thought 2010 was a great year for blockbusters with Potter, Toy Story 3 and Inception all proving to be a cut above the usual mindless fare. And John Lasseter seems to have exported Pixar's commitment to strong stories over to Proper Disney with The Princess and the Frog. And that's just the studio pics. I haven't seen as many films as I'd like recently, so I've no idea what gems have come out of the independent sector. The last great indie movie I saw was A Serious Man, but that was a 2009 release.

[Alessandra]

I agree about Inception, Kristatos, truly an interesting movie. I'm not huge on Harry Potter but I do think they're well-made, well-acted movies. AW, Toy Story. I think it depends on what genre one likes... I prefer straight-out Disney Cartoons (the traditional type, Cinderella, Snow White etc) to those 3d muppets. Other than Cars and the Incredibles, which I really, really enjoyed, I'm not all that drawn to the Toy Story type of "design", for lack of a better word. I do agree with BJ though that there's an amount of really bad movies being released. I can't remember anything as bad as Twilight. Like, EVER! There again, it's probably a matter of also picking the right ones to see. There are good movies out there. Problem is they aren't necessarily the critically-praised ones or the advertised ones. SO basically, careful research is the key I think

LMAO that Dick Emery dude is like the old version of Craig. I wasn't familiar with the series, it never aired here, but the comparison is hilarious!

He's very funny - have a look on Youtube. He made a film too called "Ohhhh You Are Awful" which would be a good name for Daniel Craig Bond film.

Why Deathly Hallows Part 1 earned less than Twilight 2 & 3 for the opening day I do not understand.

It is not a date movie or a movie teenage girls want to go again and again.

[bjmdds]

The Green Hornet will be another utter trash film which SHOULD have been great. Rogen is the Hornet's Cr-egg. He is dread awful in the role.

Correct FBF. I do not get this either. Another 14 more inches of snow due here tonight.

Dang... The East Coast just can't catch a break. It's snowing in Atlanta..friends of mine who live there are just staying at home.Can't say I blame them.

If I have a date, I'll go for Potter a billion times over Twilight, but I rather see Twilight a billion times than DC's Bonds.

Part 1 should earned higher than it is right now. It's the finale, for goodness sake. And Part 2 better be the top grosser of 2011, or I would eat my socks.

James Bond back in service with Daniel Craig, Nov. 2012 release date

James Bond’s vacation is over. After the financial wrangling over the fate of MGM led the family that produces the 007 films to halt development of their 23rd installment last year, the project is back on track with plans for a Nov. 9, 2012 release date, MGM confirms to EW. (Deadline first reported the story.)

Daniel Craig will return for his third run as the superspy. What was more in question was whether Oscar-winning director Sam Mendes, who had been attached to the movie before it was put on hiatus, would still be participating.

The announcement today from MGM and Eon Productions

Quote from imdb

There's no getting away from it now. Bond 23 IS going ahead, with Daniel Craig RETURNING AS James Bond.
A third Craig Bond film. A confirmed release date and director.
Start popping those champagne corks. (Even if you're not a fan, you can get drunk, and drown your sorrows)
