Yup the sexual politics of a caveman I'm afraid
Quote: Pingl @ May 29 2013, 8:06 PM BSTWatched Thunderball the other day. Incredibly sexist, you couldn't get away with that today. Bond comes across as a sex pest who blackmails women into having sex with him. Say what you want about Roger Moore but he always charmed the ladies into bed.
In Thunderball, when the SPECTRE minion gets electrocuted, I think they should have had his chair come back up with someone new in it instead of being empty.
I can't remember the Movie that well, but the book was boring.

Can't watch that scene now without bringing to mind the great Austin Powers scene with the henchman who keeps shouting he's still alive.
Most of the old James Bonds are massively sexist (and all the other ists). I just try to ignore those depressing bits and enjoy the rest.
So you don't like Sean Connerys big manly hairy chest zooo?
Lmfao
Hahaha!!

Does chat up line ever work with lesbians?
But yeh he is pretty vile and the jokes are wank.
I don't think there's a single really good Bond film, they're all a little derivative.
I think they have a sort of herd coolness.
Goldfinger and You Only Live Twice are so bat shit crazy that they kinda work in a fun way.

zooo, you've stated at least once on here that you like hairy men
Live and let die is fun
Does that mean I have to like every hairy man??
Sean Connery has never done it for me at all, I'm afraid.
Quote: Tim Walker @ February 15 2011, 2:26 AM GMTWatched Life During Wartime, Todd Solondz's sequel to his (very) black comedy Happiness, which I thought was brilliant, daring and at time brutally funny.
The sequel, however, is absolutely abysmal. Bad enough that it's 2 hours of bad storytelling, awful dialogue and disjointed direction, but Todd Solondz's brilliant idea was to film the sequel with different actors in all the original roles. This is a sequel which doesn't stand alone and relies on the audience having watched and appreciated the first movie. So why make it more difficult to relate to the sequel by substituting new actors giving very different performances inconsistent with their original characters? With the same cast it just might have been easier to forgive how badly thought out the sequel is. Without them, it's impossible.
A total disaster of a movie.
I just watched this, Tim (not that you care, or are even reading this). But I didn't think it was that bad. It's not a patch on Happiness and certainly has it's problems - it is disjointed and more than a little soul-destroying - but there's enough bleakly funny scenes to make it worth watching.
I like the one where Bond cashes in on the kung fu craze of the mid 70s and takes on some martial artists. Might be The Man With the Golden Gun.
That is indeed the man with the golden gun.
It's a lot of fun, perhaps mostly because Christopher Lee is a proper villain and a top bollock actor.
