Metabo Oyaji 71 Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 I'm afraid Sean pissed on his Bond peak years a bit too much which put me off a bit too. Kind of like how Harrison Ford pissed on his Bladerunner role, similarly offputting. Still, defining performances, even if the principals don't want to be remembered that way. (Shall we next drag out Leonard Nimoy's "I am not Spock"? Though he seemed to come to grips with that one later.) Link to post Share on other sites
BagOfCrisps 24 Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Still, defining performances, even if the principals don't want to be remembered that way. For sure. As for Spock, I never thought he was any cop at all right from the beginning. Link to post Share on other sites
pie-eater 207 Posted August 4, 2012 Share Posted August 4, 2012 Not sure about Diana Rigg being that much of a draw, DiGriz, but the ski sequences were cool for sure. As were the locations. Music was fab too. And that ending. All round classic Bond flick, is OHMSS. Spock was always crap, I thought. Never got the appeal there. The new Spock in the more recent movie was much better.

You mean the reboot? What's with this "reboot" stuff, anyway? I ordinarily reboot a computer to clear out the cruft and get it back to its original state. Somehow the movie industry has taken the term to mean, "install an entirely new operating system." Time to fire off a letter, I think! Link to post Share on other sites

Reboot is simply a restart from cold - nothing about clearing out "cruft" whatever that is. Installing an entire new OS is just a reformat - nothing much! Link to post Share on other sites

pie-eater 207 Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 If Tim Burton's "Planet of the Apes" is anything to go by, a bunch of bollocks. Link to post Share on other sites
JA2340 16 Posted August 5, 2012 Share Posted August 5, 2012 re-imagining, must have something to do with redefining the imagination ... other than that I have NFI. Re-imaging, however is restoring a previously saved "image" of the drive. Definitely does NOT install a new O/S. Just gets back everything you had on there previously, including all the "cruft" Link to post Share on other sites
