Yeah, but they didn't belabor the joke as much as AP did... 3 movies worth?

I think Adele's song was the best Bond song in later years, but was it worthy of an Oscar I don't know?

Pierce's Bond could've gotten a song like that.

I don't think his were that bad but Craig's first 2 were awful imo.

it get parodies but unlike bond they don't take themselves too seriously and don't try to reinvent themselves to be cool again, sotl & Hannibal just make good stories and people keep talking about them and caring what they do next without all the hype bond has to have to feel validated

Brosnan's first 3 title tracks were perfectly fine Bond songs. Techo (Die Another Day), has no place in Bond. But god lord, Adele is so whiny.

My very thoughts exactly. Along with Brosnan's first three Bond title songs, I also think the Tomorrow Never Dies end credits song Surrender is pretty good as well.

@Omega and they're not following the books exactly either.Which pisses off book purists,but too bad.

Good point, I think EON should have kept Surrender as the main theme.

I didn't mind Madonna's DAD although I would accept it didn't feel like a Bond theme song. But you got to remember Madonna was experiencing a big resurgence in 2002 I think she was choice because she would make a song and it would sell no matter what. Sort of like Adele although Adele had a more traditional voice for Bond.

I really like TWINEs theme Garbage was big back then too. They had that Adam Sandler movie around the same time. I think the lesson is if they band or singer is not popular then even if they are good they will never be considered for the job of theme song.

Up to "36 inches" of snow, with 65 mph wind gusts, is now forecast Monday night thru Wednesday morning I hope we don't lose power. This storm will BURY NYC ........."This could be the biggest snowstorm in the history of this city," Mayor Bill de Blasio said at a Sunday press conference. "My message for New Yorkers is prepare for something worse than we have ever seen before."

Blizzard warnings were already in place in the New York City area, much of New Jersey and parts of southern New England.

"It's one thing to get a foot or more of snow," AccuWeather senior meteorologist Tom Kines told USA TODAY. "You throw in 30 to 40 mile-per-hour winds and it's a recipe for disaster."

Ugh,,glad I don't live on the East Coast right now...I feel bad for anyone that has to fly for buisness-or to try to get to vacations.

MP, your town San Diego has always been known for beautiful year round weather. Is that a true statement? It must be a great place to live.

[kater23]

Yes, it is..but we're supposed to get rain tomorrow-not very much but we'll take whatever we can get!

Well, they've gender swapped a couple of characters(Freddie and Alana were both male in the books) but they've expanded them.Alan(a) isn't in the Red Dragon book much;Freddie on the show is just as obnoxious as Book!Freddie though she is going to be more of an ally for Will in S3.

[Goldeneye]

Hope everyone is staying safe with all the extreme weather we are experiencing.
