Stranglehold was the first demo I ever downloaded off Xbox Live, and I loved every second of it. Wound up buying it thrice; the Collector's Edition for PS3 had Hard Boiled included on the same disc and it was actually cheaper than buying the Blu-Ray for a while, and later I found it on PC for a dollar at Salvation…

License to Kill is your favorite Bond movie? Jack Knight is your avatar? DID WE JUST BECOME BEST FRIENDS?!

Not being super familiar with Kitano is a giant shame of mine, and this needs to be where I start.

I have never been more confused about laughing at a movie before that, and I freely admit I have an embarrassing habit of laughing at bad times in movies. I have tried to describe my contentious relationships with people as being "old soccer friends" since first seeing it and it doesn't generally work as well as I'd…

I dunno, I think that's not a bad call…if it were like the last one. Which it sort of looked like it would be for a while, and if Bond had to end I guess I'd have lived with it, but if you're gonna name your movie after something that iconic it needs to be a big watershed kinda moment.

I love these articles so fucking much but I feel like every time he posts an opinion about a Bond movie I am exactly opposite how he feels about it. (Unless he had something nice to say about On Her Majesty's, which I can't recall right now)

Davi really fucking owns that movie. Potential best Bond villain from the post-Stromberg, pre-Trevelyan era.

Conversely, View to a Kill was THIS CLOSE to having Dalton.

LICENSE TO KILL IS FINE, GODDAMMIT, I HAVE ARGUED THIS FOR YEARS! Dalton's portrayal is great, most of the movie rules, Q does a good job, and I mentioned this further up the comments but I got to meet Wayne Newton while working at a pizza place and I talked to him about his brief role, which he spoke highly of.

While I will always defend Tomorrow Never Dies, GoldenEye is Brosnan's most traditionally-good Bond movie and probably the one of his I've seen the most. I would have loved to see Dalton in the role, even if neither he nor Brosnan were ever super convincing in fight scenes.

Every six months I get a reminder to listen to Cuban Linx again, and I'm officially counting this one as mine. Thank you.

YOU KNOW, PROPA ACTION 'N SHIT

M:I-2 is super underrated. I watched it again over the summer and I think it actually works a lot better than people give it credit for, and it's filmed gorgeously.

Hard Target is cool but I don't get a lot of 'Woo' from it. Like, it's good, but I don't get those John Woo vibes the same way I do from Face/Off or the better parts of M:I-2.

I think Hard Target is good and fun, but not John Woo at all. Broken Arrow kinda sucks.

Shit, I'm not sure where to START with this one, so let me work through my thoughts and feelings:

I like that a lot - let's theme less villains around Zuckerberg and Jobs and more of them around aging musicians that don't know what to do with themselves anymore. I want so bad for a subplot wherein The Penguin buys a major wrestling promotion.

My secret favorite part of it is the clip from Poopie! where Mike is getting oddly touchy and amorous with Dr. Forrester while still wearing the Morrissey getup.

I can't tell if the joke is nobody knows who he is (which seems rude) or if we're all totally supposed to know who he is, the same way someone might write something like "a guy by the name of Freddie Mercury".

He only had to move to LA because Billy Corgan runs all the tea shops in Chicago.
