Skyfall (aka Bond 23)

[thenammagazine]

Connery is iconic just being Connery. I'll see anything he's in and enjoy it somewhat, even Zardoz.

Craig as Bond is great, as I said he's probably my favorite based on two of his films. But I'm not crazy about anything he's done outside of the Bond series.

Dalton got screwed by being a good actor in some very mediocre Bond films.

Not really, no. That and Highlander 2.

LTK was not mediocre

 

[Kamandi]

It's been years since I've re-watched LTK, but I felt at the time it was hurt by having a really bland guy play Felix Leiter. If you don't care about Felix then it's hard to care about Bond avenging him.

Sean Connery in a red daiper and go-go boots rules.

The story wasn't, but the cast, including Dalton's Bond was.

He's probably my favourite Felix...loved his and Moore's banter in Live and Let Die.

But as for Licence to Kill, I'd have to say The Living Daylights is way more under-appreciated.

 

[Kamandi]

Jack Lord was the coolest Felix, followed closely by the current actor Jeffrey Wright.

David Hedison was Felix in License to Kill and Live and Let Die. As I said, LtK is an OK picture. Modest, not awful.

Live and Let Die is a nearly unwatchable piece of crap.

Roger is pretending to be manly. That's cute!

He put The Raid and Looper above Hobbit?

 

[intothevoid]

I liked Looper better than Hobbit

The Raid i've not seen.

 

[wofford29]

Looper is a lot better than The Hobbit and I really enjoyed The Hobbit.

 

[carbo-fation]

I've seen the Looper and the Raid and they're nowhere near as good as the Hobbit. Looper was good in the beginning but the second half ruined the movie for me. Raid was great just like Dredd. Just not par with the Hobbit.

I'm sorry for your loss.

 

[wofford29]

I'd be shocked if you've even seen it. How many copies of Avengers have you worn out?

 

[intothevoid]

Looper was a solid 9/10 for me. Hobbit was good. 8/10

Looper>Hobbit


Just barely though.

It was Bond with edge!

 

[a-dev]

Hard to believe they cast her again as Octopussy. Not that there was anything wrong with her but its just bizarre that it wasn't seen as a bit silly having the same actress playing a different Bond Girl in another of the Roger Moore Bonds. You just wouldn't do that today.

On the topic of License to Kill - I like it, one of my favourites.
