I went to see no time to die the latest new James bond flic yesterday. Holy shit I was blown away by Daniel Craig's last outing as 007 review to follow anyone else see it?
 
Not seen it yet but have a super critical film buff friend who's not usually taken by Bond but loved the new one

I've only really enjoyed the Connery/Lazenby/Moore/Craig one's myself tbh. with Connery and Craig wayyy ahead of the others, but ymmv of course
 
It takes over after Spectre and has a lot of continuity, at 2hr 43mins it's the longest running time yet but it flew by I dragged my dad to see it for his birthday and he has seen a lot of bonds from her majesty's secret service on in the cinema. He wasn't overly impressed at all. It has some amazing car chase and other set pieces with a major shock ending.no spoilers... anyone?

Anyway I loved it highly recommended
 
my boyf enjoyed it but i've not seen it. not massively into bond despite trying hard as a kid cos my cousins loved bond films.

will be watching dune. i've not read it, but henry zubrowski (my imaginary husband) did a podcast about the books and made it sound like an interesting premise, so i'll check it out.
 
I’ve given up on films when they pull this kind of bollocks. A black, female Bond? Give over..

The tragic thing over Dune is Alejandro Jodorowsky didn't get to finish his version which would have been Epic.
I nearly fell off my chair when I saw you aint read it, I had you down for someone who would have digested that at the age of 7 tbh.

i think i had in my head as a kid that sci fi was boring so never read any. i was pretty insufferable so read like spinoza (didn't understand), camus, russell, loads of popular science about theoretical physics, then loads of anti capilatism stuff til i got few up of being angry. no wonder people though i was weird at school lol.

recently i've read the 3 body problem trilogy which changed my view but i haven't got to dune yet.

Sadly I only know Camus from that list :/

In regard to Sci-fi I am with you most of the way, my only real draw to that stuff is William Gibson (Cyberpunk)

I love Noam Chomsky, I was truly blown away by Hakim Bey (and YES I'm aware of his more foul side & I'd still burn him for his stance on kids but his released some truly amazing work which changed my life)

off topic but I recently did one of those political-alignment test things on interwebz just for shits and giggles.

it was quite an involved test, and alongside the results they provided a graph plotted via social/economic axis and it places you on it with loads of famous figures for comparison, and I was directly on top of Noam Chomsky (metaphorically speaking obvs)

I'd end up with Stalin or maybe Joseph Goebbels.

aaha, I think you might too no offence :)

I'm actually not very like Noam though in all probability, was quite shocked to see the results tbh.

:LOL:

tbh I've long been drawn to the old East USSR (Ukraine) for their culture & anything Slavic gets my attention right away. Drudkh - Blood in our wells in one of my favourite albums of all time regardless of genre it stands out as a true audio masterpiece & those lot are East Slavic as possible.
Mikail Bulgakov is a master author (imo) & I'm obsessed with anything to do with Baba Yaga, that says it all I think.


I also fully condone selling children for a few bottles of potato Vodka & the abuse of Krokodil
