RunPee James Bond Hub
โ
Let’s face it, the man’s an icon. Since the mid-fifties, when the original novel was written, James Bond has been the epitome of cool, class, and creepiness, depending on when you want to look at him. Over the years he’s spawned copycats, clones, and parodies. If you want to kill an hour or two, just…

Casino Royale – 1967 vs 2006
โ
Two films forty years apart but based on the same source novel. Itโs not Sherlock Holmes, A Christmas Carol, or even La Planรจte Des Singes but this story has a few twists in the story of getting it from paper to celluloid. It is Casino Royale: the first Bond novel written and, subject to debate,…

No Time To Die Again: Views Following A Bond 25 Re-Watch
Elsewhere there are my initial thoughts on No Time To Die as well as Danโs first impressions. Maybe because we had slightly different views on Daniel Craigโs final outing as Bond I thought Iโd go back and take another look. This wasnโt a hardship to me in the slightest; I knew it would be a…

The Giant James Bond Rewatch – The World Is Not Enough (1999)
The World Is Not Enoughย was one of my first choices when we were going through the exercise of divvying up the Bond films for one main reasonโฆ Robert Carlyle. The first time I saw him was inย Priest back at the end of the last millennium. At the time, the big draw was Linus Roache in…

The Giant James Bond Rewatch –ย The Living Daylights (1987)
โ
Whenever a new Bond film is released thereโs always a fair amount of kerfuffle andย The Living Daylightsย was no different. That amount increases exponentially when a new Bond actor is also unveiled. The audience is usually divided between those who think the new guy is a great choice, the ones who think that there couldnโt possibly…

Movie Review – No Time to Die
Iโve already gone on record here at RunPee about how I have enjoyed Daniel Craigโs tenure as Bond, how Iโve liked the story arc throughout the films, and how much Iโve been looking forward to seeing No Time To Die. I may as well tell you at the start about my disappointmentโฆ there wasnโt any!…

The Giant James Bond Rewatch –ย Tomorrow Never Dies (1997)
Of all the things thatย Tomorrow Never Diesย has going for it something that, perhaps, doesnโt spring immediately to mind is the sheer weight of originality. This is the first film in the franchise to have no relationship with anything written by Ian Fleming outside of the character names. Licence To Killย was a virtual pick and mix…

The Giant James Bond Rewatch – Quantum of Solace (2008)
I think itโs fair to say thatย Quantum Of Solaceย came in for a fair bit of stick. To be brutally frank it started getting stick before it had even been seen. The cat started peeping out of the bag in September 2007 as people noticed that Sony had registered the domain nameย quantumofsolacemovie.com. When the title…

The Giant James Bond Rewatch – Spectre (2015)
Spectre was the last Bond film released in theaters.ย It’s hard to believe it’s been six years.ย For those wanting a refresher before No Time To Die, I recommend going back to Casino Royale (2006) and watching all four Daniel Craig films.ย Be sure to pay attention to Mr. White.ย He becomes a crucial character…

Noโฆ Time To Die?
โ
This weekend itโll all be over. No, I havenโt got an appointment with Dignitas and a one-way ticket to Switzerland. What I mean is that I have my tickets booked for Daniel Craigโs last outing as James Bond in No Time To Die and by this time next week Iโll have watched it, written the…
