I'm just happy to see Boutella in a good movie again so soon after "The Mummy." I was like "Phew, she's gonna be fine."

The car chase after the staircase scene was awesome too. The instant "I Ran" kicked on I was like "Oh hell yes." Unfortunately the movie kind of ran out of steam for me after that. It's not that it was BAD per se, it's just that the staircase fight was so good, and it suddenly got interested in wrapping up a plot the

Dude, seriously, why is he still pursuing this? He's been dropped by his label, his public profile is in the gutter, I damn well guarantee no artists want him to produce tracks for them. Is he just seeing this downed plane to its eventual mountainside collision?

Even Connery's not exempt, since his final official Bond film was "Diamonds Are Forever."

Which you know was insisted on by Disney.

I think you mean the "Skyfall" theme.

Two measures of Gordon's, one of vodka, half a measure of Kina Lillet, shaken well over ice until chilled, and served with a thin slice of lemon.

"Casino Royale" and "Batman Begins" are both credited with starting the "gritty reboot" trend, and I feel people keep missing the point of such an endeavor. Both James Bond and Batman are plenty dark and intense on paper as they are, though the inherent concepts can easily lend themselves to camp. What I think it made

You just hear those really loud THWACKS and Craig's screams which are acted WAY too well. I seriously winced in my seat first time I watched that.

I remember hearing a complete stranger say out loud in the theater: "THAT is James Bond."

I seriously remember sitting in the theater hearing that lyric: "The coldest blood runs through my veins/You know my name." I was like FUCK. YES.

I go in with The World Is Not Enough. The problem though is Denise Richards, who is a severe albatross over the entire production. If they just cut her, focus on Bond vs Elektra King, and didn't try to cop out with the cliched Bond ending, it could have been Skyfall ten years early.

The glory of Bond is that going somewhere and killing a bad guy is literally his job. He gets paid to do that. Stopping bad guys is his 9 to 5 job. There's literally no reason to make that more complicated than it needs to be.

Not to mention just watching those films made me just feel emotions and reactions I had never felt watching a movie, before or since. I felt like I was watching something in a language I didn't understand, possibly from another planet. It's like if aliens tried to make a young adult romance.

MOM: If Bella Swan jumped off a cliff, would you too?
DAUGHTER: Mom, SHE DID.

Ah Twilight. To quote Dave Attell: "You ever make fun of someone so much you feel like you should thank them for all the good times you've had?"

Psychology Today said we're more likely to buy a product we like and identify rather than be loyal to a brand. Right there is where Sony is making a mistake, because they expect people to be loyal to the Sony empire and it just doesn't work like that. And that's not an exaggeration: Kaz Hirai said he hoped the

Okay, concerning the Crackle thing: Sony is one of the worst offenders of product placement in their movies. But has it EVER worked? Every Sony movie I've found it incredibly off-putting and it actually discourages me from buying the product.

Dammit Freeze! Why'd you have to drop out, start committing crimes so soon??

Oh god forget being an adaptation of the show, that movie failed in basic filmmaking. Nothing but exposition, terrible editing, it's like they don't even know what to focus the camera on.
