I did not intend that link to be taken as gospel, just a source since there are so many hot women.

The problem with ranking Bond girls is that there are really 2 types of Bond girls. Ones that have an active role in the plot and others that show up for a scene but have only 1 line or maybe none. These are the ones you look at and go...huh? I don't remember her. I would think I would definitely remember her.

An an example of this second kind of girl...How many of you remember Vivica A Fox and (Sports Illustrated swimsuit model) Vendela in Batman & Robin? Drew Barrymore in Batman Forever?

Some of the girls they had on that list I straight up don't remember, like, "There were six Bond girls in Gold Finger"???

Related Note: They need to bring back/reboot Tiger Tanaka in the next (probably last) D. Craig Bond film... he was easily my fav. 'sidekick' in any Bond movie...

I am pretty sure that this was the last DC Bond film, sadly. I think he was great.

If you want to talk about a "Bond Girl" who only shows up for a scene, there is a scene in Casino Royale where you see Alessandra Ambrosio (a VS Angel) walk by and give Craig the once over while he is "tying his shoe" and she walks by in her tennis skirt.

But I agree, there are two types of Bond Girls, and honestly Eva Green is one of the best because not only was she stupid hot, she was fantastic in her role. Not every Bond Girl is; in fact, most aren't.

He's contracted for one more... I know he's talking big about never doing it again, but again, he's under contract for at least one more.

Finally about to watch the new Poltergeist. The original is one of my all time favorite movies. I hope the remake does the original some justice and does not disappoint. Very let down by some remade movies lately. Some are better left alone. Like Red Dawn, Robocop, and The Evil Dead. Just my opinion.

Interesting. I did not know that, but I really thought it tied things together pretty well. I wonder where they go from there?

I guess we will find out in another 3 years.

It had such potential and started great... but the zombie baby thing, some of the characters that came in later like the nazi security team, and the school bus that survives a nuclear blast all completely killed it...

absolutely loved the original though.

Ha, yeah the baby zombie was a little to much. That I never understood why every zombie in the world seem to congregate at the mall?.... However I did like the sniper scene where he was picking off famous looking zombies. Also the remake of Day of the Dead was a dumpster fire. Very B rated. I have a love for zombie and horror movies.

You fail to give love to "Live and Let Die" again, I'll bleed you, real quiet, leave you here,.... you got that!?!


Seriously, "Live and Let Die" is on the Rushmore of Bond films... anyone who argues that is a Timothy Dalton fan...

"Scrub this on your sore ass, ACamp."

"Predator" quote challenge accepted.

I like "Live and Let Die" and Jayne Seymour was hot as hell, but I think that you see the problems, in small doses, in that film that would plague the whole Moore stretch of the series. 70s goofiness, obnoxious supporting characters (Sheriff Pepper), too much overt cheesiness. I also think that too many of the Moore movies took place in America and Bond kept getting thrown into these fish out of water scenarios that made 007 look increasingly ridiculous.

And Dalton could have been great. If he wasn't such a dour robot.

We walk out just you and me, nobody else. Right on top of em. Not a scratch... Not a fuckin' scratch. You know Dr. No ever got you. Those saying Live and Let Die ain't the shit will come back again. And when he does I'm gonna cut your name right into him... I'm gonna cut your name into him!"

I know one thing, Major, I drew down and fired straight at it. Capped off two hundred rounds in the minigun, full pack. Nothing... Nothing on Earth could've lived. Not at that range.

Jessie Ventura was so on point in that movie too.

I saw "Steve Jobs" yesterday. I thought it was basically really good, although I have a love -hate relationship with Aaron Sorkin because, although the wittiness of his stuff is great, the over-the-top, over-dramatic, overly wordy speechmaking annoys me.

Still, don't quite get why it's doing so poorly, when the Social Network did so well.

Probably because it's an autobiography and those typically don't do well, except with those that are the real curious types. Social Network was more about this thing (Facebook) and it's creation. People can relate easier to a software program than they can to someone and what they were thinking. Steve Jobs was pretty smart, but I don't see him being heads and tails above Bill Gates or Mark Zuckerberg to name a couple. Just MO.

I use this line so often, easily my most quoted line... I use it pretty much any time someone states they've never tried something: Friend "I've never tried your Chipotle Guacamole" (Insert Line)... or Friend "I never use premium gasoline" (Insert Line)....


About a year ago my wife watched Predator with me and she hadn't seen it in years... when He dropped that line she was like, "That's where you get that from!?! I thought you just made that up!!"

That's a real nasty habit you got there.

Also if I've never seen a Star Wars movie but my son is a huge fan, do I have to watch any before I take him to the new one next month?

How does this happen? Serious question. I feel like to have not seen any of them you need to have been purposefully avoiding them.

Just watch the originals. Even if you don't like science fiction or fantasy, they're cultural touchstones that every human should watch.

By first 3 do you mean Episodes 1-2-3??? Cause if so they will relate almost no way in all to the next trilogy. If you mean the original ones: New hope Empire, ROTJ- then they will directly tie into the new movies with the same characters and all.
