Skyfall: I'll preface by saying I'm a huge fan of the old films, but I thought Skyfall absolutely owned from the very start. The opening scene seguing into Adele was so dirty. The guys behind the reboot basically said the hell with the Vespa story line for this one, we're just going to make a vintage/bad ass Bond film set in modern times for the die-hards of the original series. I love the little references to the old films...the "for your eyes only" comment, the Aston-Martin & the final scene is shot for shot, word for word the opening scene from Dr. No. Bardem was really good as the villain as well.
Zero Dark Thirty: Really solid. The big scene at the end definitely drug out a bit though and had some ish happen that never would in real life. The part where the shooter said "Osama" to lure him out of the room was laughable IMO. Other than that though it was solid like I said earlier & Chastain was fantastic. I haven't seen SLP yet but it's hard to imagine how Jennifer Lawrence beat her out for that category. I'm obsessed with JLaw too so that's saying a lot.

No. We unfortunately have fallen way behind on new releases. We used to have Blockbuster....yes, I know, outdated and expensive. However we could see new releases the day of their release. The Blockbuster near us closed and now we have Netflix. Seems good for older movies and TV show seasons but not so much for new releases. Just how long does it normally take Netflix to upload new releases? I am still waiting for Argo, Sinister, and The Master.

I said it awhile ago that Skyfall was top 5 bond films for sure. Probably even trended up since then. Not a person to overreact to a film I've recently seen either.
ZD30 was better than Argo for sure and Chastain should have won Best Actress.

Yeah I'm not either. Ralph Fiennes & Albert Finney were great casting choices for subsidiary roles. Also, I'd be cool if Adele did every Bond song for the rest of this series. She absolutely nailed Skyfall.
Yeah I'll wait until I see Silver Linings Playbook to cast a final verdict but Chastain awfully good not to have taken the Oscar. She is bangin' too. I love those redheads, maan. (Wooderson voice)

Yeah I just googled it. I can pay to rent new releases on Xfinity as well. I really want something that allows me to pay one monthly fee with access to all movies, including new releases. That is what we had with Blockbuster......$36 a month for unlimited movies and games- two at a time. We exchanged movies at least every 3 days so having to pay to rent them individually would get pricey. I am so pissed that our Blockbuster closed.
