It's hard not to read DC's dependence on the various changes and reboots—which come with increasing frequency— as a foundering lack of direction by its editors and a loss of confidence in its creators . Somewhere, close to the top of its pecking order, decision-makers are steering by editorial fiat, insisting that

To enjoy it? No. To keep dancing to tracks that were 15-20 minutes long how the hell were you supposed keep going?

Asked whether or not former co-star George Clooney was a good kisser, Jennifer Lopez, always one to keep it cool, says he was just "okay."

Will someone please stop trying to make Rita Ora happen?

And here I thought I was alone in this. And you mentioned Sliding Doors, which I just love!

Why am I not surprised that the type of person who'd be in a sorority is exactly the kind of person who'd send a death threat?

If that move was about him, then was great, because it was two hours of him kicking their asses while they did every dumb thing possible...like Bond villains.

Casino Royale, sure. Skyfall? Hell no. And it's the fact they took a more realistic approach that makes the other failures in plot and consistent characterization inexcusable ("Hi, I'm Q. I'm going to deliver a little monologue about how brilliant I am and IMMEDIATELY follow it with an action so stupid a Radio Shack

That's misanthropy.

You don't help a person you know was sold in prostitution (something Bond tells us himself) by having sex with her, period. He didn't care about her at all and joked about the loss of scotch when she was murdered.

Line counting? Really? Is that how you think it works? The previous M may have had fewer lines, but wasn't depicted as incompetent. Silva, who basically kicks the shit out of Bond and all of MI6 for 2 hours was a result of her decision making. Moneypenny shooting Bond is also M's call. And she wouldn't have had to

I realize complaining about bad plots an inconsistent characterization in a Bond film is like complaining that it's in color and has guns, but they chose to ground this Bond in so thoroughly in reality that we acknowledge Bond's mental and physical fatigue and M has to face public hearings. You don't get to have plot

You forgot to mention the picture!

The only stupid thing that outrages me is you and that fact that you allowed to run free.

But it's easy to tell short-sighted assholes, so thank you for that. Now go crawl back into your MRA shithole and continue to plan your protest for a Men's History Month.

Plus, Sam Mendes's Skyfall was maybe the best Bond film in 20 years.

He consciously chose 11 over 7 saying he "didn't want to stiff the people who didn't stiff him" so yeah it's some moral thing he was clearly going through...which I'm sure in the clear light of day he probably regrets because they wouldn't have been so kind if the situation were reversed.

Oh, I understand that completely, but they felt they need to be snide and insulting about it hence my response.

Oh, did I strike a nerve there, Norman?
