Giving Gods stats was a mistake. I think it set the expectation that anything can be killed. Though, occasionally I have tried to run encounters where directly fighting the foe isnt going to work. The PCs need to use their environment and work as a team in unusual ways (not just swords and...

My opinion on Prime is pretty low. I think they have a handful of interesting shows, but they simply dont know what to do with them. Its pretty common to launch a decent even excellent first season (usually produced by someon else and Amazon buys the rights) and then the show is run into the...

Yeap, I was letting Apple build up stuff before subbing up and I just kept forgetting about it. Seems like im ready now.

I need apple TV...

Folks who cling to potatoes with a death grip because they don’t want to learn a new machine or ever change are a good example.

I dont feel like the Craig era of Bond films fits that description at all.

Fortunately, you are not going to get your wish. Im more of a Tinker, Tailor and Counterpart kind of guy with my spy shows myself. Bond is iconic and I was actually generally impressed in the Craig era (it wasnt all shaken martinis tho) and dispensing with the generally cheesy-ness aspects...

While I definitely prefer spy stories such as those by John LeCarre, Bond is just iconic. I always find the buzz of who is playing him, which musical act is making a theme, etc... more interesting than the movies even.

Was that the album they recorded machine guns for backing tracks?

Cipolla's 5 laws of human stupidity strikes again.

I kind of like that its been all over. Single artists, and groups. Its one of my favorite Bond bits. Id love to see The Dinner Party get it, but they are probably not popular enough despite fitting the modern kick.

So... who do y'all think will get to do the theme song for the first new Bond era flick?

Pretty much. Though, I am interested to see where it goes as I liked this move in the Craig era.

wait..what? You think MI has interesting themes? Not only that, but are better then Bond offerings?

Prisoners, Enemy, Sicaro... I think folks are typecasting DV. Yes, his recent and biggest films are sci-fi, but its not all he is capable of. um...what? I suppose thats one of a myriad possibility.

Its interesting to see folks assuming a DV Bond film will be a "Dune" version. My guess is that DV has a style that isnt easy for folks to explain so they just point and say, "whatever that is". However, I think DV excels at ambiance and scenes that have time to breath. Its a stark contrast with...

The secret hitman with a heart of gold genre is deep already.

I love DV, but yeah, I can see some folks not liking his style at all. Be interesting to see what he does with a Bond flick.
