  1. James Bond didn't take the murder of his wife too well. And most Bond fans list that as one of their least favorite films in the series, if not the worst. It's actually the casual Bond fans that cry about that film, most true fans like it because it most resembles the novel it was based upon, no gadgets, that and Connery leaves some huge shoes to fill, not sure if any one could have followed him at that time. George makes the mistake of quiting the role before the movie is even released, depressing ending, when it was released on TV at the time it was butchered, scenes deleted, not shown in proper order and shown on 2 night's with a anonymous actor giving voice overs WTF....it was still a financial success and it seems to be viewed more positively as the years go by.... It's the 6th highest rated Bond film on IMBD if that means anything to you.
  2. It's only ever brought up on screen occasionally (TSWLM, FYEO, TLD) but when it is, it's very powerful. In the novels it wipes him out and the majority of the next novel You Only Live Twice he's a downright mess. You Only Live Twice happens AFTER his wive's death? I didn't know that YOLW might be my favourite Connery bond And, uhh, what are those acronyms? The movies and novels do not go in order, Dr. No for example was the first movie and 6th book. The Spy Who Loved Me For Your Eyes Only The Living Daylights (But I made a mistake it's actually LTK License to Kill that it's mentioned)

  5. I was never able to understand that either.
  6. I see your point, but I also find Connery just as funny (he also had better written scripts) and easily as sophisticated as Moore, but he could also kick your ass something Moore never was able to get across on the screen, hell I would wouldn't mess with Connery now and he must be 78 years old.
  7. Seriously? Moore is 3 years older, and has never been the physical presence Connery has. Can you picture Moore in the PTS fight scene? The fight at the Heath Club? Any fight scene? Now if want to argue that Octopussy released the same year is a better film, then you might have an argument otherwise Connery>Moore
  8. If there was ever a topic that deserved two threads, BEER would be my choice
  9. What you want a 20 second movie?...Bambi vs Godzilla comes to mind.
  10. I dont always drink Mexican beer, but when I do, I prefer Negra Modelo.
  11. First Person Camera mod Created by Hurmferd
  12. D.O.A. (1950) - "I want to report a murder" Good film, interesting plot device, it is a little dated. I thought it was well done and worth the time it took to watch it. I would stay away from the remake. 7.5/10 X-Men (2000) - Not bad at all, most of the characters are very different from the books I read X-Men 94-200. The cast did a good job, the story was interesting enough, did not like the costumes and would actually prefer the yellow/black spandex, or at least a reasonable resemblance to the costumes in the comics. At least Magneto is still a villain. 7/10
  13. I used to bitch about the camera, but found a new mod that raises it above my characters head and still keeps the ceilings and first person view the way I like it. YEA ME
  14. And well worth it!
  15. I call bull****. NWN2 was many things, but short it aint
  16. More like 50 - 80 hours for me, it can be longer if you read everything, spend a lot of time crafting..... NWN2 was hardly short.
  17. BIG fan of beer. Most any beer, not a beer snob by any means. Prefer to drink Sierra Nevada. The wife loves her Corona with lime and a lot of salt.
  18.

  19. Feeling sick today, so it's a sports titles console frenzy - MVP 2005, Collage Hoops, NCAA 07, NHL 2K5
  20. Let's keep it to one villain this time, don't care which one just do it well.
  21. Urlacher to get raise with revised contract "According to sources, Urlacher and the Bears have come to terms on a revised contract, which includes a one-year extension, thus ending their offseason contract squabble. Urlacher, 30, had four years and approximately $25.5 million remaining on his contract. Under the terms of the upgraded deal, Urlacher will receive a $6 million signing bonus along with a $1 million bump in salary each of the next four years. The sides also have agreed to extend the pact into 2012, at a salary of $7.5 million. Urlacher can earn an additional $500,000 in a workout bonus in 2012." LINK Allen to return? "San Francisco 49ers coach Mike Nolan said he believes guard Larry Allen might consider postponing his retirement to return for his 15th NFL season." Link Redskins lock up all draft picks Link
  22. The Los Angeles Dodgers sign IF/OF Pablo Ozuna The Milwaukee Brewers acquire 2B Ray Durham from the San Francisco Giants for P Steve Hammond and OF Darren Ford
  23. Yes. To the letter.
  24. 3:10 to Yuma (2007) - Solid flick. Crowe and Bale turned in their usual excellent performances. Ben Foster as Charlie Prince really caught my eye, the last place I saw this guy was as the weak willed, sexually confused Russell Corwin in Six Feet Under. What a transformation! 7/10
  25. Busy day in the NFL. Giants to trade Shockey to Saints For a 2nd and 5th round draft choice. Redskins agree to terms on deal for Taylor http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/8362550...deal-for-Taylor Rams, Chris Long agree to deal Receiver Chad Johnson says he'll report on time for the Cincinnati Bengals' training camp next weekend, but his surgically repaired ankle probably will limit him in practice. http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/8364880...to-Bengals-camp
