The issue for me is a long list of event names with a grade and no commentary.
I'll be shouted down, but I think some context would make your lists less listy. Which may not even be a word.
Merry XXXmas.
He looks terrible in A View To A Kill. They were supposed to switch to Timothy Dalton for For Your Eyes Only, five years earlier (which would have fitted way more given how low key and serious FYEO is) but Moore stayed on.
It's just plain weird to see him at nearly 60 still making out with these young Bond girls.
This is Die Another Day:
The list of letters without context were in response to people like me who do overly wordy bullshit reviews. I think they are dope and Zach should stay the course. Especially when I can watch a show and then look at his ratings and see how we matched up without having to read a whole review.

I was listening to the How Did This Get Made show about View To A Kill and apparently a discussion between Moore and one of the Bond girls off-screen convinced Moore to stop doing Bond after that. Apparently it was one of those "You do realize you're OLDER than my DAD" things.
Yes, Moore found out he was older than the Bond girl's mother, and that was it for him.
As opposed to all those other Bond movies where Bond and the Bond girls are the same age?
Agreed... We here at WrassleGAF should distance ourselves from the actions taken by Mr. Nash, and cancel the January Nash OT.
This is Die Another Day:
Gotta say as shitty as Die Another Day is, I really like that sword fight at the beginning.

Well, I'm sure glad that you didn't see Casino Royale or Quantum of Solace, then.
As for Roger Moore in A View...
Can we at least invite his son over? He looks like the kind of guy who would blend in with us.
Moore is 58 in A View To A Kill, making out with girls in their 20s. There's a limit on these things.

It also had Patrick Macnee!So let's talk A View To A Kill
It's not the worst Bond film (Hello Die Another Day) or the most boring (The Man With The Golden Gun nods off) but it might be the most tired. Roger Moore is crumbling into dust, the entire first hour of the film is completely irrelevant ambling around about horse racing, the Bond girl is back to being a dumb blonde who can't do anything, and the plot is Goldfinger but with microchips.
On the other hand, its zeppelin game is on point, Christopher Walken is playing blonde Christopher Walken with a machine gun, May Day is kind of amazing, and the soundtrack is awesome.
And a big note in its favour, it isn't Octopussy.
To sum up, see it for the cool heels.
Roll on Timothy Dalton and your lack of Nazi superhumans with axes.
Die Another Day is pretty much the same as Moonraker. Starts ok, the opening act is fine, then it takes a massive swan dive off a cliff into the Ocean of Stupid and heads for the seabed.
Yeah kinda baffled how they went from this simple, exciting, really well choreographed fight scene at the beginning to having Bond surfing a Tidal Wave caused by a giant outer space solar beam.

I find all the Bond movies entertaining in their own way, including Die Another Day.

what about the cartoon, james bond jr?
It also shows every way of how not to do an "action" Bond girl. I hate Halle Berry at the best of times and this movie might be a big reason. Melina in For Your Eyes Only (who kills fools with a crossbow and gives no fucks) or Wai Lin in Tomorrow Never Dies are better examples of doing an action Bond girl.
Jinx is just horrible.
Nah, they're usually fairly good about that stuff. It's just an old game by gamelfy standards and doesn't have much replayability. Doubt it sold well either.
The ones closest to having no redeeming features are Octopussy and Diamonds are Forever. As much as Man With The Golden Gun sucks, it has Christopher Lee being awesome. The other two have nothing.

I might have seen parts of one of those. But the ridiculous gadgets scenes are the best parts of all the movies I've seen. "Now remember, Snake...." Wait.

This is Die Another Day:
I didn't see anything low key and serious about FYEO. The movie starts with him dropping Dr. Evil down a smoke stack via helicopter and about 80% of the movie seemed to be skiing or underwater scenes.

Nah, gamefly copies are good as new. It's crazy hard to scratch PS4 discs anyway.
It adds to the theory that Kevin is just a tyrannical sociopath now that I think about it.
Like I don't think any normal child would think of half the things he comes up with to hurt the Wet Bandits with.
And the CEO of SNK /referencenobodywillgetThis is Die Another Day:
If I had stepped on that nail in the way you actually would rather than the theatrical way it was done? Or if I got a blowtorch to my head? I'd be on the ground screaming for help for the rest of the movie.

I'm afraid to find out. As a kid I thought that was the funniest movie ever made, I loved the bathroom assassination scene.
I even thought it had a good deal of heart during that montage when he thinks about how different the world is now and all the people from the 60s that are gone.
But shit if I watch it now and don't laugh.....I don't think I can shoulder that burden, friend.
The absurd opening aside, the whole plot is just basically a black market deal and revenge plot, no wild supervillain or world destroying plot or excessive wacky humour. Given the movie that comes before it is Moonraker, you can see how I found it a change of pace.
"Low key" for a Bond film, I meant. Especially a Moore Bond film.

I still find Naked Gun hilarious, and they've got similar humor, so I think I'd be ok. I know my mom loves the Austin Powers movies though and she was a big fan of Leslie Nelsen, so I think it's a fairly safe bet that the first one is still good.
oh and there's this little reason to rewatch as well
I also think in-jokes are a part of any community you join...friend.
I think we do a lot of discussion that's relevant to the product, but also go off track here and there because it would be boring to only bitch about the WWE every day.
We've all got our little personalities/gimmicks in here too.
Bootaaay is the New Japan guy
Stro is the well-rounded wrestling history guy and religious critic
Heavy is the WWE mark
Aiii is an AJ apologist
I'm an alternative wrestling mark who goes with what's good at the time, be it ROH, New Japan, or whatever
We're not limited to these things, but they definitely define us a bit.

hopefully!
for the record as a kid; seeing the spy who shagged me was the first time I had walked out of a movie theatre thinking "that sucked" and I sat through Mortal Kombat 2 and Batman & Robin in theatres.
E- And Spawn! Which was dope as fuck

Good to hear, thanks. Reviews and discussion from posters here praised the game pretty highly, and I have fond enough memories of Wolfenstein 3D that $15 seemed like a fine price for a single player FPS romp.
When I think used games from rental services, my mind jumps to the PS1 days at the local library, where the lone copy of games likeTactics Ogre was marred with scratches everywhere.
I've stepped on a nail before and trust me, it isn't fun.
I'd call the cops on myself just to get away from that house of horrors. It just isn't worth dealing with that much pain over and over again because you think there's stuff that's worth a lot of money you could snatch up and sell.
They were reaalllly desperate.

what did you guys think of the gimmick change from the wet bandits to the sticky bandits?
personally I think it was just a change in name only.

Apparently Del Rio is being offered an insane amount of money to do UFC. Bellator and UFC in a bidding war.
Brock is smiling somewhere.

Punk vs del Rio?
The sequels did have a few good gags like 'would someone put a freaking bell on him or something', the swivel chair, and the fight between Austin Powers and Mini Me in the background gag of the phone conversation.
It's like the opposite of MI2 where it's a shitty band but the song's instrumental is so good with the theme that it makes you think for one second that Limp Bizkit isn't the worst thing in the world.

I'd put my money on Del Rio.

For how much he struggled to connect to the audience in the WWE I'm pretty surprised to hear how much of a mover and shaker del rio has apparently become.

He was raised by a family who knows all about working contracts in Mexican wrestling and I'm sure Del Rio has his own history of working deals when he was doing MMA in Japan. Just because he wasn't over doesn't mean he don't know how to make money and get over elsewhere. See Diesel.

Well, I"m a fan of the guy; I'd like to see him beat down dudes in an octagon.
