The preview was pretty good. With the change in hollywood / england for the metoo movement, I expect that some editing will be done and Bond will be wearing an apron.
They should retitle it No Way to Watch.
Is this the Bond film with the female agent using 007? She looks like a young slender androgynous Michelle Obama.
At least it’s Daniel Craig.
Coming soon to a Netflix near you.
Make your own popcorn...
And I’ve seen every one of them...usually, more than once.
Sheesh...I need to get a life.
I really liked Casino Royale.
This new one is not looking good to me.
Bond is married, and the new 007 looks like an extra from Orange is the New Black.
Political correctness ruins everything
Gov Sissy Pants opened up the theaters in Nevada some weeks ago-—But churches are still restricted heavily.
I've seen the David Niven, all the Connery ones, and most of the Moore ones, and always on broadcast TV. I've got the Lazenby one on BluRay around here somewhere, never opened, and I've never seen it that I recall.
Die, Hollywood, Die!
