   Rewatching the Brosnan Bonds (don't judge me, I'm sick in bed), and so far GoldenEye was good, Tomorrow Never Dies is ok but The World Is Not Enough is basically unwatchable; I literally didn't understand what was going on or why I should care about any of this (and even the action sequences were boring).

   Anyway, one more (Die Another Day) to go.

     @thomasfuchs In Tomorrow Never Dies, I really wanted the setup when Elliot Carver types one-handed on a tiny wireless keyboard in front of a movie theatre-sized screens.

     Interestingly, I recently did the same for the Craig films, and found the same pattern.

     For me, the first was the best and they went downhill to the end (and yea, Skyfall has its merits, but QoS, after Casino Royal, works well as a sequel and pays off CR’s plot while skyfall is bloated)
