Ah I see. Well, you could always just b*y Casino Royale (1967) or Never Say Never Again (1983).

That way you'll have the complete set of Bond movies which weren't actually part of Cubby Broccoli's series o/ (and were total shit).

Just seen the Bond documentary with Sky, impossible to be objective as every music cue, every clip evokes so many memories - but overall it was a well made interesting doc.

It will probably be shown a hundred times on Sky, but was worth seeing on the big screen for the clips of the Spy Who Loved Me and Goldeneye pre credit sequences alone - just awesome.

The excitement continues to build, just over 3 weeks to go!!! :D

Full length video of Adele's Skyfall is released. Feels like a vintage bond song harking back to the Shirley Bassey tunes. Love it. Video is spectacularly disappointing though, its just a karaoke!

Several press reviews published, calling Skyfall as the best Craig bond yet (in a couple reviews, best of the franchise) and a perfect tribute for the 50 year anniversary. Seems like Sam Mendes can do no wrong with any genre/franchise he touches. More pumped for this movie now. Here are a selection of reviews, I hope SoonForgotten, Ethanhunt were there too, I look forward to hearing what they thought. Mind you, I do only look at summaries and overall ratings, I never read reviews in depth as many do go spoilery. I like reading them after seeing the film though!

I am not a Craig fan and I really disliked the last 2 Bond films, but you are right after all this positive buzz yesterday I am kind of looking forward to it o/
