I could go on and on about how much the new movies or "Reboots"s Are awful. I could probably show you things you did not even notice. I am not going to though. I am actually Jelous of you being able to enjoy the new flicks and I don't want to take anything away from your fandom.

Eh, you might find something that would annoy me but I have a pretty broad level of enjoyment, especially when it comes to franchises I like. Basically, as long as there are moments I like within the movie, I'm good. So, on a less-controversial example: Live and Let Die is the weakest in my estimation, but I can still enjoy it for the great theme song, the cab ride scene, the brief glimpse of Bond's flat, and the hilarity of Kananga blowing up, and Jane Seymour's beauty. I can get through all the bits that make me groan in anticipation of those bits and that's how I think of movies in general, which is probably why I own about 700 movies.

So I will focus on the Good Ol days. It is Hard to pick favs because I loved all the old ones for special reasons. Highlights include. ThunderBall.The man with the Golden Gun,and Living Daylights and Golden Eye. Yeah I said Golden Eye don't look at me like that! lol...

Let's see. I don't know about the order for sure, but my favs are:

Goldfinger
The Spy Who Loved Me
From Russia with Love
GoldenEye
The Living Daylights

My favorites are:

Casino Royale
Goldfinger
Skyfall

After those three, I'd go with From Russia With Love, Dr No, Thunderball, The Spy Who Loved Me, OHMSS, For Your Eyes Only, and Tomorrow Never Dies as my top 10.

I actually like all 6 Bonds in the 23 EON films. I like to shit on Moore, but he is the one I grew up with and still have fond memories of most of his movies. Dalton is COMPLETELY underrated. His two movies were really good. And Lazenby, if he hadn't shot himself in the foot, could have been one of the greatest Bonds ever. He was young enough that he could have played Bond until Brosnan came along (such a shame). Connery has always been my Bond of choice but now I flip flop between him and Craig. Brosnan was the one I wanted as a kid when he was doing Remington Steele. It seemed like he was the prophecized Bond, the one who was destined to be Bond. And when it happened we got...Goldeneye. To me Brosnan is one of my favorite Bonds, who happened to have the misfortune of BEING Bond in some lackluster films (3 out of 4 of them anyway).

Yeah the Justice League movie where Batman and Superman do everything while the rest of the league sits it out.

Anyway this is casting choice isn't happening at all.

I am kinda done with Comic films. They can take thier Goofy Talking Batman and Thier Murdering Superman and stick it. Throwing in an appearance by Green Lantern is not gonna hook me any more. All that will get you is I may watch it on netflix.

A perfect metaphor for WBs view on DC comics as a whole.

I just wrote up an editorial over at comicbookmovie.com about why Hal Jordan should be the Green Lantern of the Justice League movie. Be sure to let me know what you guys think.
