Absolutely loved the BD. The trip down nostalgia lane was a huge plus, seeing the DB5 in action was great. Just a tip to whoever buys the movie, don't watch the extra features prior to watching the film, a spoiler is revealed.

I had a chance to watch it today and was very pleased with the video and audio quality. The scene when the train crashed caught me by surprise. It made me respect my subs.
My only criticism is that I had to buy a combo pack, instead of Blu Ray only. Minor, in the grand scheme of things.
I do recommend the James Bond 50 Years Blu Ray collection. They've done a great job with these classics in the Blu Ray format.
Watched it last night, loved it. Worth the buy. Bought the combo pack, gave the DVD to my daughter.
Well, good news. I did an update and now the Blu-ray disc plays. :cool:
Agreed: even my kids commented how easy it was to hear the dialog on this one (unlike something like TDKR).Quote:

There's a James Bond Tribute tonight at the Oscars.
Shirley Bassey belting out "Goldfinger" after all these years. Still has the chops.
Awesome movie watched last night online with my friends. This is my favorite movie in 2012. We enjoyed this movie a lot.
Great Bond Movie!
This was one awesome movie! I loved Casino Royal, but Quantum didn't really live up to the same standards as Casino. Then there was the downturn, and the fear of no more Bond. I think this put those rumors to bed.
I just read yesterday that Sam Mendes has other commitments for the next two years and will be unavailable to make the next Bond film.:frown:Quote:

It was more of the end result of the train fight that I didn't care too much for. I think someone should have died after being shot with a rifle, falling off of a train into a river (200ft-300ft?), unconsciously floating down a river, then sliding down a waterfall with no rescue. Considering realism is the direction they're pushing for, it seemed to be a bit excessive. If the trauma didn't kill him, he should have drowned. All my opinion of course.Quote:

Just watched this. My 2nd favorite Bond film next to Casino Royal.
*Casino Royale
:cheesygrin:
IMHO, it was better than Casino Royale. But definitely only a hair between the two.
My wife bought me the 50 years of Bond collection but I am still picking up the Daniel Craig bond films individually on Blu-Ray. Pretty sure he is my new favorite Bond and being Scottish, I think it may be heretical to say that. But I will always love the Connery Bond.
Purchased and watched it twice... Best of the newer Bond stuff for sure. There were many lessons taught but the bottom line was that old BMF spies can kick ass, but old women are basically a drag and can't handle even a minor gun shot wound. The villain was definitiely one of the better recent villains... IMHO Jason Statham would be a better Bond, as this guy starts to age, we need to think about the next replacement Bond. The audio DTS Master was one of the best I have heard.
Waaaaa????.....must be the Jersey water?Quote:

Saw it... left me a bit meh. But I also think this movie was largely the finish of the Bond reboot, but I do kind of wonder where the franchise will go from here. Different takes on the original Bond books? I don't know.
I love James Bond but this one was a little lame. Same as all the hero movies these days. A hundred or more supposedly highly trained mercenaries can't hit anybody point blank with a machine gun yet the good guys get anyone they point at with one shot.
LOL... been saying the same for many years, lucky for the good guys that the bad guys are lousy shots, homemade guns? made in Asia?Quote:

Best Bond film yet! Sucks sam mendes is not coming back for another one. Rumor is they are not going to do another one for at least 3 years. That sucks!!
skyfall was way over hypered to me
