Bond, James Bond.

Apr 17, 2007 20:36

So I just finished watching the new Bond...which isn't so new anymore but I hadn't seen it yet.  I'm a strong believer that there is only one Bond - being "the Sean"...and all the rest are good movies but not quite as good. I hadn't heard good things about this Bond....and I wasn't particularly happy about there being no 'Q' and therefore no fun ( Read more... )

1 - well lets see here, from the moment I met you I liked the twinkle in your eye and I knew that you were up to no good - so I figured that I'd befriend you and tag along to keep you out of tooooo much trouble.
2 - I always think of you when I listen to Billy Joel's song for his daughter where they are sailing. I can't remember the name...apart from it's sometimes called Lullaby.
3 - You are getting the coolest Father's day gift ever.
4 - I remember sitting on the floor in Toronto in the kitchen watching you make molasses cookies - I have fond memories of molasses due to this.
5 - Umm...I associate you with....I'm not sure. A sloth.
6 - How do you feel about jellied eels?
7 - Your newt.

hmmm ... does the jellied eel question have anything to do with the Father's Day present he wonders ...

How do I feel about jellied eels?

Like everyone else - with my fingers.
And I would like them heated first please.

I'll take a hit on that meme.

I have to admit that Casino Royale didn't really feel like a Bond movie. It lacked a lot of the things that made a Bond movie a Bond movie. I can understand a couple little changes made since it's supposed to be an "origins" story, but they cut out that feeling you get from watching Britain's most badass secret agent save the world once again. I did however, love that opening chase scene through the construction site. That was amazing.

1 - I had no choice in the matter really - you befriended my brother - therefore you befriended me and I befriended you. Good thing you are a cool guy...otherwise that could have worked out not in my favor.
2 - Probably any techno-song makes me think of you.
3 - You like to drink Chai tea lattes from starbucks. - you should try a Cinnamon Dolce latte!
4 - We first met at tennis lessons - only to meet again later.
5 - I'm not sure who I associate anyone with - seeing as I don't watch anime - but I hear that you like Sid - so I'll go with him.
6 - Why do you not like steak?
7 - I've only ever seen this one - so I'll pick it.

3. That does sound tasty. Perhaps I'll give that a go next time.
5. Cid is the man. He makes it a heck of a lot faster to get around in the game.
6. I like red meat, but I really don't like it on it's own. I need something else around it to really like it. So maybe if you have a small steak and made it into a burger I'd eat it.
7. I have a few others but I don't use them much. I'll show you one.

I found myself cheering for the guy bond was chasing, who was doing awesome vaults, slides, jumps, and never seemed to get tired. He was amazing! Bond wasn't. That's sad.

Tigers are much more refined and as such are more careful about what they scratch and when. You should see the scratching post though!

I really didn't like the movie. Half of it was a really boring poker game. The villian was just a banker, with no plots or ambitions of global domination or anything. No Q cheesed me right off. Bond was brutal and unlikeable, rather than suave and sophisticated.

What really got me was that a whole bunch of people got shot/kind of shot at the end, and I had no idea what was going on. Murg!

Also, I want to be memed, too.

I like the movie actually - well I didn't mind the poker at all - but I agree that the end was rather confusing...I just didn't associate the movie with a Bond movie - it was just a cool movie...but not bond.
1 - I befriended you because it was the only way to team up on Mum and Dad.
2 - I associate you with Great Big Sea songs
3 - You once jumped on ice that I'd already told you.......haha
4 - My first memory of you would have to be in the car on a drive to someplace.
5 - You are John whats-his-face from Pocahontas - the hero guy.
6 - Can you babysit my cat from the 10th of May until the 14th of May?
7 - This is the only one I've ever seen you with.
