Delicatessen, by Jean-Pierre Jeunet. Such a great movie, both funny and bizarre, with these incredible characters. Great movie, and it looks fabulous as well!

Because your average American couldn't be bothered with subtitles. I refuse to watch the remake. Saw Vantage Point. Quite shit. |
watched irreversible the other day and it was pretty hard going but i loved the way it was shot, the nightmarish spinning camera and glimpses of things happening that where so visceral. proof that cinema can still shock me.
i also watched the hangover which was pretty funny. |

It was all about product placement when Brosnan was Bond, and the reason he was sacked, which clearly pissed him off, was because he was a cunt. |

I didn't like it too much. and actually this was the only movie in which I actually thought the acting was bad.... |

Well, I still need to see the remake but since it's exactly the same thing but with better actors, I guess (Michael Pitt and Tim Roth ftw), I can understand why you think it's better. And, judging from the trailer, the remake looks classier... |
I agree with GMKU the grittiness that Craig brings to the role makes it much more palatable to watch. Before Casino Royale my favorite Bond was Thunderball. Still though without a doubt Pussy Galore was my favorite villianess followed closely by Fatime Blush

Naomi Watts ftw too! |
I thought George Lazenby made a great Bond, but because he was such a cunt, he was fired after just making one movie.

Have you guys seen the cast list for the Spielberg directed "The Adventures of Tintin: The Secret of the Unicorn"? Jamie Bell is playing Tintin, Daniel Craig is playing Red Rackham, and Andy Serkis is playing Captain Haddock. The rest of the list is here: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0983193/

That may well be the case. At the end of the day though, I'm a far bigger fan of Roger Moore's Bond than i am of Sean Connery's. Brosnan clearly followed the Moore line while Craig, I suppose, is more Connery-like. Edit: On another note, entirely unrelated to who's actually playing Bond, one of the things I think has marked the decline of the whole series in recent years is the way in which its traditional focus on exotic locations has been undercut by a general increase in travel, since circa the 1980s. There's simply not the same excitement in 2009 in watching Bond's adventures in a country like Bolivia that there might've been, say, thirty years ago when the idea of travelling to such places was highly unlikely (beyond being involved with some kind of military service). Now a place like Bolivia is just a backpack excursion away. As such, I think Bond has lost that sense of geographical mystery that it relied on so much for its success early on. I remember being fascinated, watching Octopussy, of its visions of India, a country that, at the time, I had little hope of ever seeing. If anything, Bond is now a victim of the world becoming a lot smaller than it was during its heyday. Not necessarily a big deal, but I'm drunk and it's a point that seems important to me right now. |

In a way, I prefer the original for that reason, that it's actors aren't as well known. It kinda fits the movie. But the remake is good as well, they are indeed basically the exact same thing. |
![]() 5/10 because I didn't like it or hate it, I'm just not part of the target audience (14 years old girls). But I still need to say that some of the effects were really awful, and the acting was kinda terrible. |
I'd say 6/10 because of Kristen Stewart's panties.
