DITTO THAT! D.Craig is a great Bond.

LOL. Well, if you have to do it, I guess that’s it. Three of the last four movies I’ve gone to in the theater either had teenie boppers chatting and playing with their phones (the Oliver Stone 9/11 movie); or kids running all over the place (to which my son popped, jumped up and shouted, “SHUT THE F___ UP!” and they did!); and one in which during the previews, somebody absolutely got riddled by a machine gun and a black guy behind us shouts, “THAT’S WHAT I’M TALKIN’ ABOUT!” (that actually was pretty funny).

She was first the wife of a hardware salesman and she took his boy with her.

But, the boy never did like him much anyway so I guess it's best.

But I know how to load a Dragoon.

Lloyd Bridges’ politics were goofy, but didn’t stay specifically Red. From his Wikipedia bio (not the most unimpeachable source, granted, but I think accurate here):

“He was blacklisted briefly in the 1950s after he admitted to the House Un-American Activities Committee that he had once been a member of the Actors’ Lab, a group with links to the Communist Party. He resumed working after being cleared by the FBI...”

In those days, being cleared by HUAC and the FBI generally meant that you named names, etc., and proved to their satisfaction that you weren’t an active Party member.

“Good God girl, that's a Colt Stragoon”.

Correction:

"...that's a Colt's Dragoon."

Got a man crush on Daniel Craig as 007

He does make a great Bond. I'll pass on the "man crush" though, even though you would like to "bond" with him.

Have not seen it. I saw the previews, and I was appalled that someone was remaking the movie. Might give it a try....maybe

[crazyhorse691]

From the trailers I have seen of the new remake I am happy to see what the original movie would have been like without Glenn Campbell(Texas Rangers don't sound top tenor) and Kim Darby(Is this how Shirley Temple would have done it?).

Good philosophy, i just hate supporting lefties with my money, it just makes me cringe.

[Celtic Cross]

I've been thinking about seeing this movie. Does it contain;

1) Nudity or explicit stuff of a related nature.

2) Violations of the Second Commandment or the F word.

3) Really graphic violence (Doesn't really bother me, just a stat point).

4) Any liberal or PC material or messages.

Thankee kindly :)

[redshawk]

OK OK, I was excited and my typing was sloppy. You are right. Sorry.

[Irish Eyes]

Saw it last night. Powerful, great filmsking. Brilliant in every category. 5 stars.

Did you see the original?

[Larry Lucido]

I've been thinking about seeing this movie. Does it contain; 1) Nudity or explicit stuff of a related nature.

Even if it doesn't, I might still see it.
