Awww! But I like the gadgets! On the other hand, Daniel Craig does tend to rock, so maybe I'll go see it despite the lack of gadgets.

No gadgets?! What's a Bond movie without gadgets?!?!

I read a review saying they decided to take a different direction when they got carried away. Apparently driving around in a car with a cloak is too unrealistic.

I once read though that back in the 60s they had a movie with small underwater breathing devices, sort of like the scuba masks the Jedi in Phantom Menace had. This bloke had been working for years trying to develop such a device and when he saw the movie he insisted on seeing the developers. Apparently it broke his heart when they told him the actors just held their breath.

I once read that someone paid a million dollars for the secret to the automatic doors in ST:TOS.

The secret was two stagehands pulling on them on the other side.

I heard that he want to make to do a gay love scene in the next James Bond movie to show that James Bond is indeed an every man kind of guy. I am sorry but the day they do a gay love scene in Jame Bond is the day I stop watching James Bond movies. PERIOD.

Re: OT: Movies You Have Seen Lately
 

Amen to that. Daniel Craig was pretty good. I would have liked the movie more if they had really treated it like how a 007 is created. But the man he met in the first scene already knew his name as Bond. I would have preferred it that he would have been a nameless section head and then given the name Bond to go with the 007 license. That would have been a good way of saying why there's been 5 or 6 guys using that 007 title with the name of James Bond over the past 40 years.

Didn't you know? The're all one person.

How do I know this? Well, I was passing an alley one day when I saw a swordfight...

Wrong crossover.

You should have said that he has an affection for jelly babies, always carrying some in his pocket, and his medical files say he has two hearts. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/smilies/happy.gif

Well, excuse me for not memorizing an actor from a series I've never had a chance to see! http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/image...ies/tongue.gif

Well your reference meant nothing to me but I know Baron's instantly.

Yes I guess it's an immortal, but only because I understood what Baron was getting at.
