carmelle Posted November 19, 2008 Report Share Posted November 19, 2008 Spanglish The film is generally considered to be a flop but I actually liked it. However it was wierd to see Adam Sandler in a some what more serious role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachel&kim Posted November 20, 2008 Report Share Posted November 20, 2008 (edited) I just watched Blow. It's just amazing. Although the beginning of it makes me jealous of young people in the sixties! I swear I was born in the wrong decade.

Formerly Known as FKAJ Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 Thunderbirds. Acting was OK, and it was visually impressive, but I think I would have liked to see more of the other four Tracys. Maybe I should check out the TV show. Also, Romulus My Father. Good performances, but I think the accents were inconcsistent, and it didn't do the book justice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teeann_x Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 ^Pierce Brosnan will always be the best Bond. Agreed, actually, but I like Daniel Craig because he's the closest anyone has coming to playing Bond as he was written by Ian Fleming. Up until now, it was Timothy Dalton. Nevertheless all of Pierce Brosnan's movies are in my top 10, with GoldenEye at number 4, and the other 3 fighting over number 6. Saw Quantum of Solace today. It was weird.. me and my friend didn't understand it at all but it's meant to be the best Bond so we say it's good. Seriously, it was so hard to follow, I didn't get the continuity of it all, it kept changing. It was very action packed though. Craig is warming on me, just didn't get the movie. Would have to watch it again and again and have someone explain it to me. Love Pierce Brosnan as bond, except for the last movie he did I think, the one in Korea. I just remembered a movie I saw like 3 years ago. The Thomas Crown affair, that was awesome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just remembered a movie I saw like 3 years ago. The Thomas Crown affair, that was awesome. I loved Die Another Day, but I agree that it would have to come last of those four, I guess because it doesn't have as much to offer in the way of deep storytelling. I love Golden-Eye because the villain used to be Bond's friend, so there's that sense of betrayal on both sides. I love Tomorrow Never Dies because the villain is essentially Rupert Murdoch although the writers based him more on William Randolph Hearst. I love The World is Not Enough because Electra is just so much deeper, psychologically speaking, than any previous villain. To Die Another Day's credit, it did step out from the formula by having Bond out for revenge and working outside of MI6 control. But that was done better by both Timothy Dalton and now Daniel Craig. I guess it mainly reached my top 10 on the basis of Jinx Johnson (one of the few Bond girls who can be said to be Bond's equal), the death of Graves ("Prepare to face destiny!" "Prepare to face gravity!") and John Cleese being promoted to Q ("Wish I could make you vanish."). For the record my current list is: 1: Golden-Eye 2: Licence to Kill 3: Casino Royale 4: Golden-Eye 5: The Spy Who Loved Me 6: The World is Not Enough 7: Tomorrow Never Dies 8: Die Another Day 9: For Your Eyes Only 10: A View to a Kill Not sure where to put Quantum of Solace yet, I'm gonna decide once I've seen it on DVD and managed to work out what was going on.

teeann_x Posted November 22, 2008 Report Share Posted November 22, 2008 I forgot to say The Thomas Crown affair is a Pierce Brosnan movie, so it wasn't totally random. I've only seen PB as bond, since I grew up watching it with dad. Since I've loved these type of movies and it got me to love the Bourne triology. That scene in QOS on the rooftop reminded me of the rooftop chase scene from Bourne Ultimatum. Looked so much like it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
