I can't definitively say all of them, that would be stupid. Almost as stupid as watching all of them would be once I've established that the concept fails to entertain me. lol I realized that I find them boring around 1990, and have probably only seen 2 that were made since then. I think I've seen most of the ones made before then, although I haven't seen the Lazenby one. I would probably sit and watch that one if I saw that it was on. But when you find yourself bored 30 minutes into a movie, and then that pattern repeats through a series of movies, it would be pretty foolish to keep watching them. :D

If you've not liked most/any of the Bond films you'd seen to that point, you may want to give Casino Royale a try. Yes, it's Bond, but the movie has a very different tone than the ones preceding it. Daniel Craig plays the character differently than the others, and the tech used isn't so fantastical that it would take you out of the moment of the scene just to wonder at the idea of it all. Then again, perhaps you just don't like action-focused spy movies.

I almost switched to Sinema but their plans were not that great. I dropped MoviePass during the Mission Impossible debacle and switched to AMC Stubs A List. It is the superior plan that I get to use all the time...only problem is the AMC theater by me sucks and hasnt been updated in quite some time. Since I have the time during the day though I usually get my value out of it.

Guess we can't talk about James Bond either, without dealing with the usual suspects bringing up politics. Its ****ing pathetic.

You object to an attack on Nazis?

Not sure anybody could have made the political point more clearly.

I still have my MoviePass. I've been a member since before they cut the rate to $10. The nearest AMC is 126 miles away so that isn't an option.

DOn't have SHowtime, but been wanting to watch Homeland. Haven't heard of KE. The Americans was really good but I honestly didn't think it came close to TTSS.

Thanks for the recommendations.
 
Re: Bohemian Rap City: Movies Thread

Homeland is one of my faves but has some down seasons

Killing Eve is fantastic. The other two were boring and silly to me but that's simply a matter of taste.

Never a movie, but side splitting

Israel Bond may seem like a simple-if-s3xy salesman for Mother Margolies’ Old World Chicken Soup, but when the Holy Land needs his skills – his quickness with a pun, his second-to-none semitic seduction techniques, and (if absolutely necessary) his abilities at actual espionage – then the man known by the code name Oy-Oy-7 (licensed not only to kill, but to say prayers over the corpse) does what needs to be done. Whether sneaking matzoh under the Iron Curtain, competing in a life-and-death game of La Guerre, battling the agents of TUSH, or having intimate encounters with such seductive beauties as adventuress Sarah Lawrence of Arabia, Xerox’s mistress of reproduction Kopy Katz, and Sister Sweetcakes the Swinging Nun, Oy-Oy-7’s life may be crazy, but never boring.

In the mid-1960s, when PLAYBOY was serializing the adventures of the world’s most famous superspy, they interspersed them with the rollicking tales of the Jewish state’s most hilarious weapon, Israel Bond. After the book editions of what the CHICAGO TRIBUNE called “probably the funniest secret agent parodies ever written” had sold over a million copies, they were allowed to fall out of print. Decades later, all four novels - Loxfinger; Matzohball; On the Secret Service of His Majesty, the Queen; and You Only Live Until You Die - are available under one cover for the first time!

If MoviePass didnt black out every new movie I might have kept it. Liked it way better cause I could use it at the nicer theaters in town. (ones where getting popcorn didnt throw off the value and have nice chairs and so on) The local AMC is like 8 miles away so I just go and bring in my own coffee and snacks to avoid their stupid prices.
