Duran Duran & Grace Jones - there you go. Got anything good out of the way.

you kids STILL going on about Grim & Gritty? Let me tell you about being a mid-180s comic book fan, post Wachment & The Dark Knight Returns…..

there are posters for those non-existent Spider-Man movies as well

fuck me gently with a chainsaw - really?!?

I feel like there could be a stand alone column just on the super-hero genre itself, in chronological order

…and are awesome

its physically symbolic of every other flaw in the creative process

who would have thought that the rise of Liam Nesson as action star would basically boil down to 'do these rejected Steven Segal scripts'?

Gemma Arterton was in Rocknrolla & Quantum of Solace. Then you look at the rest of her filmography and you really start to feel bad for her.

look at the artwork on the cover of [house music artist] MIguel Migs' cds and re-watch the opening of Quantum of Solace. Tell me they weren't an influence on the title sequence.

worst piece of editing is still Mr. White's escape. Years later it STILL looks like M was shot, which added to the jolt of the scene but made the reunion at the investigation even more confusing.

that slo-mo fight on the beach is artsy perfection

Quantum of Solace.is an abbreviated coda, a victory lap of Casino as opposed to a sequel but amazingly a lot of it is better than remembered when re-visited. That it is the shortest Bond movie in history probably helped it more than it hurt it.

I'd kill to have one Craig/Matthew Vaughn team up in the 007 filmography

At any point does Besson redeem his directorial career?

it became a lot more watchable in the 3rd season - the decision to linger on the farm as long as they did was AMC's, which was done to save $ on sets. It was tedious to say the least.

Money was a frustration for Breaking Bad as well but by the time the deal was set in place for the final few seasons [including cutting the second season in half], Netflix rose to power and gave the show the expanded audience the show deserved. AMC looked like it cut the show's span to the outsider, an idea which the…

Randal…is that YOU? Are you taking 'porch monkey' back as well?
