HEY TOM !!!

So ... filkertom posts about new DVDs most mondays ... what is coming out, what people intend to buy.

I didn't realize that these were out this week.

FINALLY ... and not in a box set

From Russia With Love ... the greatest of all the Bond films ... anyone who disagrees, I'll kindly have to ask you to step outside.

You Only Live Twice is out too

Once Dr No and Diamonds Are Forever come out (and I can't seem to find a date on that) ... I have all the Connery Bond films

So ... what is your favorite Bond film? And who do you think is the second best Bond? (cause we all know who is the best)

I don't particularly disagree with this analysis (though the flash was always there, and YOLT had lots of slow spy stuff), but as is often the case, the first example of the flash was the best. They tried to top it with special effects and faster pacing, but the series never topped the climax in the volcano.

Now that I think of it, the ending of YOLT is similar to the ending of this year's 24: Russia set to Push The Button until The Third Party Bad Thing is blown up. Bond is better than Bauer, but that's a different discussion.
