    All the movies (save for Craig) are back on Amazon and Hulu, if anyone didn’t notice.

  3. $86 for the ten.

    Never read any of them before so I'm excited.

    What’s the best way to go with buying the movies if I’m interested in special features? One of those box sets? Or cobbling together a collection with individual releases?

    Also, very excited to check out these “banned” commentaries on the first three movies I just found out about.

    Alright, I got through Brosnan today.

    Richards is definitely not good but she’s also definitely not the worst Bond girl, not even close, I’d say.

    I have the Bond 50 box set but I’m not really sure what special features are included.

    I really assumed people were overstating how bad Die Another Day was but HOLY SHIT THEY WERE NOT.

    The World is Not Enough totally was, however. Elektra King might be in my top five Bond girls.

    Goldeneye is legit good. The world is not enough and tomorrow never dies are mostly dumb but a lot of fun. Die another day just makes me sad.

    Oh yeah, Goldeneye rules. I’ve got it at #4 in my ranking right now (this doesn’t include any Craig cause I’m making my rankings off this run through).

    Also, I’m dreaming of an alternate reality where Rosamund Pike got to be a Bond girl after Gone Girl and how amazing that would’ve been. She’s fully wasted in this.

    From Russia with Love is probably my favorite. It’s so damn good.

    The whole sequence with Robert Shaw on the train is pure Hitchcock and I loved it.

    I would have loved a movie like that with Craig.

    I legitimately feel like I’ve been watching the last act of DAD for three years.

    Casino Royale fucking RULES. Would love to see Campbell come back for whoever takes over for 26. He seems like a good luck charm at this point.

    It’s quite a thing watching the worst Bond movie and then going right into the best one.

    I like the beginning of DAD when bond is captured and then exchanged and he looks like george of the jungle. other than that yes it is easily the worst Bond movie made

    Yup. When I was at that part I thought “I kinda like this?” And then it just crashes and burns once he gets to Cuba.

    I must now go to the source Supporter

    YES to both of these. My dad and I rented it years ago when it went to video and within those first few minutes I was like “well wait now I actually kind of like this. This is pretty dark for - oh no, wait, yeah. Okay. Okay I see. Never...never mind.”

    I saw it in the theater for my birthday I think and kept telling myself I liked until it was over and I had to admit it was shit.
