007 Skyfall and good British TV

[jakethevape]

What a good film. I have waited so long to watch this after missing it at the cinema and I tell you what it was brilliant. Cant say I have enjoyed a movie for a while but this film was really good. I love the ending as they have left it at a point to do another one and It cant come sooner.

I will not spoil it for anyone with endings etc but all I can say If you like a good British film and like your James Bond films then this may be up your street.

On a second note, the follow up to Silent Witness on BBC tonight was just as good! Watched it yesterday for the first time in years and was hooked instantly and the follow up episode tonight was fantastic.

Been a long time since I have sat down and watched the goggle box and I can say I am very satisfied after a good night of British TV / Film.

So what do you think?, did you watch any of the above and what did you think?...... PS had a nice vape through the movie with a toddle of vodka on the negative side my VAMO is faulty...... as in totally faulty and will be contacting the vendor tomorrow, but lets not get on that with this topic right now and keep to the original.

I enjoyed Skyfall but I still think Casino Royale was better at points.
Mainly because the DB5 is awesome but the Vanquish makes me dribble with lust
I really think Bond is going in the right direction now though, very visceral and real (kind of) and the worst of the campness has gone.

Useless bit of trivia...
My company supplied the fireman uniforms in the Skyfall London scenes

I have been a JB fan from the beginning ,watched the films ,bought the games until they decided to use Daniel Craig as the new Bond. This is an actor I just cannot bear to look at, I don't know why but he just makes my skin itch. I cannot pass comment on his acting ability as I have never seen him in anything to have an opinion.

I am very sad about this, silly I know, but I feel I am missing out on the whole Bond series now and have not got a complete set of Bond games.

He's the best Bond for a long long time.

i will say found it disappointing ,its just a rebirth of Bond and Money Penny ....none of the usual Bond stuff... there was a massive right up on the failings of whats wrong with Sky fall in terms of scenes,but for me i was disappointed , always loved the gadgets etc that has been in past bond films....but maybe they have been told to make it bit more less costly how many db9's did they right off in the last one lol

I think you will find the db9s were only shells with cheaper insides. Maybe not all of them but I wouldnt think even a multi million £ movie would wreck multiple 120k+ car

Best bit about skyfall, they played the pearl and dean add at the start, it's been about 15 years since i last went to the flicks

I was really disappointed with this after all the hype it got, to me the worst bond film ever,
my personal opinion mind.

True.
Not to mention the amount of stuntmen they broke on the last film.
Shame as it was such a shite movie as well IMHO.

unfortunately................ I found it very disappointing..........Daniel Craig is not Bond for me, a lot of people say that he has portrayed Bond as Fleming wrote........ but he does nothing for me ......... sorry

Like Les Mis........... I love the theatre production............ but the film didnt do anything for me............. Russell Crowe........ ewwwwww although Hugh Jackman is definately eye candy

Haha cheers collie made my day that did

[jakethevape]

One thing I do have to admit is that Daniel Craig has a rather Russian look to him..... anyone else agree?. Putin almost haha.

Still think he did well in the movie, but the lack of gadgets!

[Bluefish]

He's not a bad Bond, not as good as SC though.

The boy plays it well
