Bond 25 - "No Time To Die" - due for release April 2020

I mean if they cancelling events like Geneva Auto show it makes logical sense that people wouldn't want to be stuck in a theatre for 3 hours...

Didn't occur to me... A car show I'm touching things plus it's international with multiple vectors of infection. A theater I'm pretty good maybe wouldn't go to the ones you eat but...

Should I avoid restaurants too?

I was looking forward to Q gadgets!

Any large gathering of people is going to be an increased risk factor. Also it can live on surfaces for about a week.

^ is that Blofeld or Drax plan

Supposedly the elderly are most at risk as is per usual. For the rest of us, don’t touch the same surface if someone picking their nose...

Pretty much like with any other viruses, poor health and being old are the risk factors. Strangely doesn’t seem to be affecting kids, which is surprising

It can't. The authors of the study being cited have pointed out that it's being misinterpreted by scaremongering "journalists".

And then they wonder why we lose interest and trust in their mediums.

Just saw it. Bloody brilliant.

Get to the theatre as soon as you can. Basically before some arsehole opens their mouth and spoils it for you.

seriously no spoilers

Today was No Time To Die for me.

I second @MWF's recommendation.

Spoiler

Very atypical Bond movie, but not a bad one for it. It was a proper send-off for Craig's Bond. A nice amount of self-references, and of course the fact that at the end, he did actually die. At some point I'll have to watch all of the Craig Bonds in a row, because they do tell an overarching story, something that Bond lacked in previous incarnations.

Action and gadgets nicely low-key, but all the more to the point for it. Finally a movie that has people in a gun fight picking up their dead opponents' guns when their own ones run dry! I'll just forget the immunity of the radio equipment to the EMP watch.

And I want that yacht.

After really enjoying Billie Eilish's performance of the theme song, I started to wonder if I'd warm back up to Writing's On The Wall, given it's also a slow mournful ballad. Nope. Uck. Still can't stand that song.

It took me until today to see Watch-Dad and the World Where People Use Aston Martins for Anything! Good job I managed to dodge spoilers til now.

It is now on Prime, so I have seen the movie. It is not the best Craig Bond movie, but it does humanize Bond while rounding out the story arc. I now have to do as @DanRoM suggested above, and watch all of the Craig Bond movies again.

 

[Redliner]

Not the best Craig Bond but much better than @Spectre , I mean, Spectre (low bar, I know).

I think QoS was the best Craig Bond. Watched it a couple days ago again and it works for me better than Casino Royale and has less of the Skyfall and Spectre schlockiness. No Blofeld, either, who felt like a superimposed afterthought.

I felt Dave Batista should have been Blofeld. He would have been closer to the books but diametrically opposed to prior film versions. They could have kept him as Hinx right up to him disposing of Waltz's Blofeld.

The connections to Bond and Blofeld we're schlock.

I think Cassino Royale and Quantum of Solace are equally good and feel to me like 2 parts of the same movie.

I literally have no memory of QoS. Found it very bland and forgettable. Skyfall may be the best. But then again, I do like some schlock and, full disclosure, not a big fan of Craig as Bond.
