Lest we forget 1) Having a nice warm shower to wash off the radiation (still, any excuse to undress Andress!) and 2) "let's kill him by putting a SPIDER in his room.Metal Vendetta wrote:
However, I dare anyone to watch Dr. No and keep a straight face. Forget Austin Powers, this is the real deal and if anything, it's funnier for it. A villain with metal claws because he "lost his hands to radiation", immensely proud of his fishtank with convex glass to make the fish look bigger, who has a plan to "topple American rockets" although it's never really explained...add into that Bond's casual racism - at one point he takes his shoes off and just gives them to the black dude to carry - and the ridiculous quasi-futuristic clothes...it's an absolute winner for sure.
What did you think about Casino Royale? Did you feel threatened? And if so: why?Impactor returns 2.0 wrote: I didnt feel threaterned by him, he didnt really do anything, exceot threatern to kill toms wife. Why should I be worried.
If you take a bond villian, they begin by blowing loads of innocent ppl up, killing someone in cold blood or doing somthing else equally nasty, which builds suspense. or at least it does in decent bond films.

Eh, I'm with Ob on this one, that sequence lasted far too long. And at least once Bond was hanging on by his fingers with the bad dude standing above him...I was almost screaming at the screen: "Why don't you just stamp on his hands and he'll fall?" That's just lazy film-making imho.spiderfrommars wrote:Great sequence.

How about the Director's Cut of 'Mrs Doubtfire', where they actually acknowledge the complete emotional instability of Robin William's character, and in the last fifteen minutes show him in full drag chasing his family around the house while he wears Pierce Brosnan's face as a mask and axes them all into chum?
I'm thanking sweet monkey Jesus that I instigated my "Never watch another movie with Robin Williams in it" policy too. Just IMDBing him makes me want to vomit. Bicentennial Man? Dunno. One Hour Photo? No idea. Jumanji? Totally clueless. License to Wed? What's that? Flubber? Err....no (see also my "Never watch another movie with Eddie Murphy in it, particularly if there's a fat suit involved" policy) Patch Adams? Is that the one where he's a doctor *and* a ****ing clown? Never seen it, never will. Mrs. ****ing Doubt-****ing-fire?

**** me.Unable to deal with his daughter reaching puberty, a psychologist (Williams) has to get a handle on his emotions, which have come to life as different characters.
'Jack'. Incredibly, Francis Ford Coppola directed it.Metal Vendetta wrote:Christ, I just remembered, isn't there one where he plays a grown man with a six year-old's mind, because if there is, I am thanking the blasphemous deities of every religion on the planet that I've not seen it.
Hee hee, Hilary Swank. I love her name so much.spiderfrommars wrote:What about Insomnia though? Starring Al Pacino, Williams and Hilary Swank, directed by Christopher 'Memento, Batman Begins, The Prestige' Nolan. It's a good 'un.
