Since you asked.........my favourite say 3 Roger Bond films are in no particular order:-

LALD. FYEO & OP

least favourite AVTAK.

Back to QOS.............I've viewed the Olga K diaries............and there's lots of extra QOS footage
that we havn't seen so far!

..................at this rate by the time i go to the cinema on the 31st Oct.....i would of already seen the whole
film in its sum of bit parts.

It's a disturbing trend that almost the whole plot of QOS has been revealed, thanks to various cast members :?

The Spy Who Loved Me is the best Rog film. The rest are are all fun to varying degrees. Next rank the George Lazenby films in order...

QOS was confirmed at 105 minutes by the BBFC. Too short? The trend seems to be for films to be long now.

105 minutes and 58 seconds, actually. Like I've said before, I'm fine with a shorter running time. I've seen far more 2-hour movies that would have been better at 90 minutes than the other way around.

We'll see soon enough. No reason why a shorter film can't work.

"It never fails. You Craig-lovers are such complete assholes. If he's so great and the movies perfect, then why do you blow a f**king gasket when someone disagrees with you? You're like the Islamic extremists of movie geeks. And if you hated Bond so much all these years, then you sort of nullify your lameass teenage opinion. What, you're just a fan of fugly thugs with monotone voices? Except when you're a fan of men in tights and capes, right? Cuz that's how you roll!! LOL. Of course, cuz all actors should be judged not by their faces but by their big muscles (ooh) and their ability to scowl blandly and drain all life out of Paul Haggis dialogue. Yeah, he's Brando. What a bunch of sheep. What's even funnier is you think you're so f**king macho for liking this "new direction" and it's nothing but warmed-over Timothy Dalton/Licence To Kill mixed with bad Mexican soap opera. Ooh, it's so "dark" and "real" . He's "tortured" and "complicated". You're like a bunch of prepubescent girls talking about the edgy rebel member of a boy band. It's pathetic. It's all just so deep. You're such badasses. To sum up, with all due respect: Lick my balls you fascist f***s. " - Rebeck2

Reason for the short film? 1)TBU was almost as short and more screenings per day yields more box office revenue OR 2)they could not find enough decent footage to pass off to the public when released. Take your pick, it's one or the other.
