I should also state my only other real problem with the film, not enough Ron pearlman.
Like all those things so, so I should of loved this as said will have to give it another go. Thinking about it was probably those in front of me that stopped me enjoying it. Really felt like punching them in the back of there heads !

Great choices there, Mercenaries From Hong Kong is an infectiously fun Shaw Brothers take on The Wild Geese.

Finally got around to watching "Skyfall". Not my favourite Bond film ever but beats the hell out of a whole bunch of 'em! 18/10 for the new Moneypenny, -3/10 for The new Q, 15/10 overall!

I can't remember any overalls, must've been in the tunnels!

What about the baddie? I think Javier Bardem was the best thing about the film.

Raoul Silva: There's always a first time...
James Bond: What makes you think this is my first time?

Probably the best line in the film.

Yes it was amusing but on the whole the scene represents another little reinvention of Bond and cumulatively this is not a good thing. If it's not broken don't fix it - bring back Roger Moore!

Funniest thing I remember about Skyfall, was a guy in the cinema going crazy when Moneypenny was revealed. It was literally like his mind had been blown Like a lot of people, I knew about it before I watched the film, but I suspect for him, it's like he'd just found out that Darth Vader was Luke's Father. . That's how bad he was.

Holy flying circus,

Wasn't sure exactly what to expect from this, but thought it was better than expected stuck to the exact type of humour you would expect from monty python crew, quite amusing and was surprised at how canny some of them looked like the monty python team that you could almost mistake some of them for the real person..
