I was thinking of tearing up Quantum of Solace but then I saw this...
http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse.net/c.cgi?u=quantum_of_phallus
and there was nothing more to say.
Funny you should key on Quantum Tom because I originally had it in the “Worthy” section (where I think it belongs), but bumped it up because almost everyone seemed to like it. The anti-Quantum site you mention certainly has some good points but Marc Forster as “Brand Ruiner?”. Come on. The Bond movie franchise has been ruined so many times that I've lost track. Let's see... working backwards we've got Product-Placement Bond (Die Another Day, The World is Not Enough), Goof-Bond (Moonraker, Octopussy, A View to a Kill), Non-Bond (Never Say Never Again), Bored-Bond (Diamonds are Forever), and the list goes on.
This latest incarnation is just another variation on a theme – Crunchy-Bourne-Bond, if you will, complete with jiggly cameras and jump-cut chase scenes. Is it great?... certainly not, but it awful? No. Toss Moonraker in the tray and tell me Forster ruined the brand. I don't think so. The only thing indestructible about Bond is the franchise.
tim dalton is my favourite bond.
also funny is how the twilight "review" took place mainly in the comments section...
i was a huge bond fan growing up. watched them all as a kid. would save up my allowance every month to get another vhs tape. and i have to say, even though people hate me for it, my fave bond has and will always be Roger Moore.
i don't know why.
anyways, nothing wrong with the new bond movies, i just get really miffed that our new bond isn't Clive Owen. oh man... that would have been perfect. Blond Bond is lame.
Moonraper was hilarious. the theme song is amazing and the opening sky dive battle with Jaws was wicked.
damn, if i had a vcr i'd pop that in right now
oh and i did write a review of slumdog
tom is bond, bond is tom.
Got it Kris... forgot about that one.
