Alright, here's one. I think On Her Majesty's Secret Service is in fact, one of the better James Bond films. Maybe even in the top five... however, that does not necessarily make George Lazenby one of the best actors to portray the character either.

just remembered one:

i've never made it through "2001: A Space Odyssey" with succumbing to total apathy/boredom.
Same here. Visually interesting, but s...l...o...w...

On a similar note, I've never been able to make it through Apocalypse Now without falling asleep. It's not that I find the film boring or uninteresting, it just happens. I have seen the entire film, but not in the same sitting. [huh]
 
Um no not quite lol It's actually a very campy movie that shows a man losing his mind http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kfcJUl39iiA&feature=related
It's very very strange.

Oh and I hate anything to do with those stupid sparkly vampires named Edward.

You owe me nine minutes of my life back.:p A horrible Nick Cage performance and accent. :eusa_doh::laser:
Sparkly vampires sounds like a scene we have out here in San Franfreako. :confused::eek::p

I have never had anyone else agree with me on this but I think the only James Bond that I can truly stand (and who I think did a great job) is Timothy Dalton. He brought a darker tone to the role (which I believe is more in tune with the novels by Ian Fleming) and realism to the character (and also dispensed with the corny jokes). He's a brilliant actor anyway - loved him in the tv production of Jane Eyre....

I didn't see him in that one. I gave up on 007 movies when they got rid of Pierce Brosnan. I had a hard time getting over Timothy Dalton playing Rhett in Scarlett the sequel Horrible book and movie.

I did like him in the The Beautician and the Beast though lol

(not one word James :p)
