I didn't say they weren't fun. I'm not a big Tarantino fan though.

Can I twist your nipples?

Back on topic, I also saw Skyfall. No idea why people are saying, "OMG IT IS GREATEST BOND EVAR!" or "OMG IT IS WURST BOND EVA!" because my personal opinion was: "MEH! IT WAS OKAY!"

Goldeneye was many things, but it was certainly not boring.

Same with You Only Live Twice.

I didn't even know You Only Live Twice existed. And I don't think I've seen Goldeneye. I must be a philistine.

You Only Live Twice was scriptwritten by Roald Dahl. It's also the only classic Bond movie I can stomach.

Goldeneye has Sean Bean in before he became known as 'That guy who dies in everything he's in.' and James Bond and Hagrid go on a tank rampage through Moscow, or maybe Saint Petersburg. Who cares. My favourite modern Bond. By that I mean the only one I like (Not having seen Casino Royale).

Casino Royale is the only Bond I've seen. It was decent.

See You Only Live Twice. It's set in Japan, stars a team of ninjas and has THE original volcanic lair.

Originally that was written without the has. Though corrected, I stand by the implication the volcano was a member of the cast. Quite possibly the most integral.

I think you're confusing Mount Doom with the One Ring and/or the Eye of Sauron.

In any case you're very silly.

You Only Live Twice has Sean Connery as Bond, too, just as the icing on the cake. I'm not sure if it was just the era but he had something that the other Bonds didn't quite capture, for better or for worse.

I still need to see Paranorman. At this point, there's no excuse for the fact that I haven't.

Dark Knight Rises had so many plot holes, cliches and downright bad writing choices, but for some reason I left the theater satisfied. Nolan did a decent job directing, I thought.

I still hate the fact that Christian Bale is still doing the deep and overly dramatic smoker's voice. It wasn't as bad as previous films. I actually watched TDKR without attempting to puncture my eardrums.

I saw part of a new ballet adaptation of Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland on BBC4 the other night. It was shit.
The choreography was a typical post-Nijinsky affair (as far as I could tell), the music sounded hackneyed and archaic, as if it was trying to be somewhere between Stravinsky and Debussy (both great composers, but I think it's time to progress in terms of creating new material), and the only modern element was the use of projections to create backgrounds and special effects.
I was also disappointed (but not surprised) that they decided to base their work off old material. I don't remember the last time I saw something actually original broadcast.

Needless to say, I turned it off after a while, since I felt I was wasting my time watching someone else waste theirs.

Speaking of ballet, I recently finished Princess Tutu which has now become one of my very favourite anime.

It's ridiculously incredible and a crying shame that because of the title and premise people will listen even less than usual when I advise you to watch it and show your younger family/children how fantastic kids shows can be.
