I liked it.  It was good.

:)  Spoilers below.  Don't say you weren't warned. 

OK- Daniel Craig is fucking badass.  OMG.  I would say he's the most "Bond" Bond since Sir Sean.  Much rougher than poncy man Moore, much more believable as a killer than Dalton.  The only other one that comes close is George Lazenby IMO.

The story was plausible, there were no goofy gadgets (kind of a drag- no Q or whatever John Cleese's character is called, no Moneypenny) just a man who does his job and is learning to do it well.  The learning is key- this is the genesis of the character, not yet fully formed.  Very hip.  Eva Green is good, not hokey like some other Bond girls had been. 

They could have done more with the weeping blood though, it was an interesting tidbit that wasn't fully exploited.

Also, I believe this is the first time James Bond ever says the word "balls" meaning testicles.  I could be wrong.

I think so, Brain, but how will we get the Spice Girls into the paella?

BTW- the guy who sings the theme song never has to worry about the "Bond Curse" affecting his music career.

It's Chris Cornell, lead singer of Audioslave and former frontman of Soundgarden.  And the song, while not the worst Bond song, ain't nothing memorable.

That's what I mean- not the worst, not the best.  Kind of hard to understand some of the words.

I didn't realise he was an established musician.

AHEM!

Can we please get my lovely Bond thread back on track?  I mean, I realise the singer guy has something to do with the movie, but LET'S FOCUS PEOPLE....



Thank you.

Carroll told me earlier that the best way to get good spikes is to use Elmer's Glue.  But he said not to touch it after it's dry, or it'll look like dried spooge.

Yup - Elmer's Glue is what 99% of punks use on their mohawks.  Plus it's water soluble, which is good.
