Since she survived it’s fine. But yeah those fuckers are vicious/delicious/devicious 

I was just saying we need a Napoleon movie. Seems like a thing that should’ve happened by now 

barf

Also they laid on the Christopher Plummer quoting Shakespeare a bit too much. At one point he’s just spinning in his chair yelling cliche Shakespeare. Another Sci-Fi pet peeve of mine is when aliens know about/reference not only human things, but human things WE know about (does invoking Hitler or 1939 mean anything…

Yup, my dad died of cancer connected to Agent Orange and they’re trying to nickel and dime us because he was jusst far enough from Vietnam’s shore to not be eligible. Thankfully we’ve been assured my mom will probably eventually get a pension for it and backpaid the few years we’ve had to wait, but he never got to see…

Olbermann was 100 percent convinced Trump was going to be impeached and imprisoned, and this was in 2017 before all the other stuff. He thought it was case closed 

One of my favorite Stewart moments is him going off on how bad the Democrats fucked up the Massachusetts election replacing Ted Kennedy in 2010(costing them the filibuster-proof senate), and it got into ripping on Olbermann’s hemming and hawing over it

It’s the comedy equivalent of Rage Against The Machine breaking up just as Bush comes in. I think in Stewart’s case he was simply burned out from the daily grind of being on TV, and the depressing nature of the news he had to mock. By 2015 it was clear that this all was no longer funny.

Yeah, at first I was like “WTF this isn’t a sexy lady singing” but the chaotic nature and the way they lay out the opening sequence makes it work so well, especially for a “first” Bond film

That would make a great movie title. The song would have to be by some indie band 

I really think we will for the next one. The Bonds always seem to swing back and forth between camp and serious. 

Without the comments section I have zero reason to read Deadspin 

Whenever marketing relies on past films (last Hobbit, Rise of Skywalker) I assume the film is going to bomb. 

In a better timeline Dalton starts at View to a Kill and gets another film between Licence and GoldenEye

OHMSS has the all time best one-liner (he had lots of guts!)

I have a rewrite in my head of the film where it’s his last mission, he gets horribly injured in the opening ski chase, and he’s barely keeping up with Zorin. The girl in the film (sorry and RIP to Tanya Roberts) is toned down and he politely rejects her advances in the end realizing how old he is.

Yeah by Skyfall he was considered too old and banged up, and had gone AWOL for months to start the film. 

The real Bond girl in that film is Sophie Marceau, and she’s one of the best Girls/Villains 

Dalton in that film would’ve made all the difference. Moore had a great sendoff with Octopussy, not that continuity ever matters but he saves the freaking world by disarming a nuke in that (while also dressed as a clown) thus, his anonymity as a spy is kaput. 

What sucks is that stunt was a really good one and hard to do, and they ruined that stuntperson’s hard liferisking work!
