Wait, weren't you complaining you had too many games to play in your
list? You should be angry it's October, that only means more games to
add to the pile!

And the new James Bond film is also out on the same day, on the 31st
here in the UK.

Spooky, I'm just watching the last one on the PC. Just got to the part
where Le Chiffre cuts a hole in a chair prior to the torture scene. Had
to pause it there to go and make a drink.... always makes me shudder ;-)

Seen the trailer to the next one? Looks pretty bloody good.

Grrrr. I don't know about the rest of the world but here we have the new
James Bond film, Fallout 3 and Farcry 2 all on Oct 31st. Gonna be a busy
weekend of pissing off the wife I think :-)

Yup. She will hate all three, not understand the attraction and will
get wound up about why I don't find cleaning out the garage more
productive... going to be around November 30th before she'll talk to
me... ;-)

I haven't watched any of the James Bond flicks since Connery. I
personally don't care for Pierce Brosnan and not sure if I would like
Timothy Dalton. So is Daniel Craig any better? He's been in the last
2, right?

And you forgot Roger Moore and George Lazenby. :P But haven't we all? Not
that I minded the Moore flicks, he just didn't do much for me in the role.

Craig is great, I'd rank him 2nd to Connery.

Yeah, Moore was good. Connery was great.

Cool I'll check out the older Craig Bond flick then.

It's well worth a look. To me it's a bit more mature than it's predecessors
and I actually think Craig is even better than Connery, thought the writing
helps.

Liam Neelson (isn't is Neeson?) kicking butt? I don't think I've ever
seen him in that kind of role much less an action flick. Wow, I'm a
fan of his, I'll have to look into this. Thanks for the heads up.

If you're a fan you must have seen him in an early film, the Big Man, as
a bare knuckle fighter and of course he taught Batman to fight more
recently in Batman Begins...

Can't say I'm a fan in the sense that I follow his career ever so closely
but I do like his work when he appears in what I watch. :)

I'm a fan to the same degree. I've not seen the Batman movie (didn't
care to) and never heard about Big Man. I heard about Rob Roy but for
whatever reason never seemed interested to see it.

Rob Roy is great. Batman Begins is the best I've seen of the Batman
flicks, although I haven't seen Dark Knight yet.

Oh I highly recommend Dark Knight. The only reason I went was just to
see whats-his-name's Joker performance (no disrespect, i just can't
recall his name right now) and it was awwwwwwwwwwwesome. The movie
itself was dam good too.

And Hell Boy 2 was awwwwwwwwwwwwwesome too. I loved it much more than
#1.
