im listening to the SW commentary and its weird that Sims doesnt realize the reason R2 says he belongs to obi wan is because R2 has a mission to get that message to him.

this is a thread to share our thoughts on new episodes of the podcast, sometimes we like one and sometimes we have criticism, it’s still a thread made up of fans and is largely positive; the reason why we’re here is that we like these guys. why would any of you apologize for that? and i mean these guys have successful careers, like TWO each, i think they gotta have thicker skin than that.

dunno you guys sound like dweebs lol

Yeah I really liked the Beloved episode, I hope she comes back.

they just added a bunch of bond movies to streaming in anticipation of the new one. what would you dweebs say is the most blank check bond? it’s interesting because you’d think they’d let mendez do whatever after the success of skyfall, but spectre plays especially like a movie whose plotpoints were fashioned by franchise keyholders it’s weird

the broccolis (the family who owns bond not the vegetable) are notoriously conservative creatively and they generally keep a pretty tight leash but i feel like die another day in all its ridiculous 90s excess was their blank check movie

They mentioned boards more on the JD Funeral for Frames episode where they talk about reading the blank check messageboards, which could (and more likely does) mean the reddit. I just know ive been a bit more mean to JD on here, specifically about when he often alludes to stuff he “cant talk about, but we’ll talk after the show” it just seems real conspicuous and self important at its worst and, because of the shows real hangout friends vibe, kinda rude at its most benign. Other guests have done similar things here and there and even griff doesit but it comes across as accidental or helpful “not sure what im allowed to say or not” when they do it, it seems real intentional and “im in your club that, as a reminder to everyone, the listeners arent in” when jd does it probably because it happens literally every time hes on and he often volunteers it. I also said he speaks in a cadence that makes me think my bluetooth is cutting out and thats actually what I apologize for.

I didnt finish the SW commentary yet but i got to the part of david talking about how hot men are and kissing and if it was specifically for hpn i thought it very much missed the point of what we discussed here, so i assumed it was the reddit too.

Logically it's gotta be Tomorrow Never Dies because it's peak post-Goldeneye hype and the movie where the bloom starts to fall of the rose. Tomorrow Never Dies and World Is Not Enough are basically the same movie, which can be said of most Bonds really. There isn't a huge drop off in quality between those two but they are certainly worse than Goldeneye and both far better than Die Another Day. Die Another Day is definitely the worst of the "modern" Bonds and may just be the worst one period. It's still kind of fun I guess.

Tomorrow Never Dies and World Is Not Enough are so evenly matched that they even both have top tier themes.

I guess in terms of budgets this new one is the biggest but i love the story production-wise of Never Say Never Again. Aside from all the wackiness that makes it possible to make: It brings back Connery, is directed by the director of Empire Strikes Back, has Max Von Sydow and Mr. Bean and is generally a huge mess of a movie

Was Goldeneye a big deal divorced from the video game?
