I'm excited to see wtf that intro is like w/ the new theme. Damn good song.

You obviously should've went with SkyFail instead of SkyDon't in the poll option. This thread has already skyfailed.

Re: Skyfall (Mendes, 2012) — The Double-O Reviews Thread
 

Didn't even notice the poll. Yeah...SkyFail would've been better.

Don't do anything so drastic. We all SkyFail every now and then.

Re: Skyfall (Mendes, 2012) — The Double-O Reviews Thread

You need to man uup and grow a pair of Skyballs.

I'm a Goldfailure and need to go into my Quantum of Solace!

Failure Never Dies.

The Dark Bond


Enjoyed Skyfall alot though, but Casino Royale was better imo.

What's this have to do with Breaking Bad?

2 more days...

Re: Skyfall (Mendes, 2012) — The Double-O Reviews Thread
 

Seeing this tonight, running a 12:07 AM show in IMAX.

Re: Skyfall (Mendes, 2012) — The Double-O Reviews Thread
 

Holding steady at 93% with 115 reviews in.

Re: Skyfall (Mendes, 2012) — The Double-O Reviews Thread
 

I still can't find if the IMAX closest to me will keep this beyond one week. They haven't posted showtimes for anything but the new Twilight movie for the weekend after this coming one. One thing that is everywhere is a UFC fight for St. Pierre vs. Condit. I don't follow UFC that much, but is this supposed to be such a big deal that theaters are carrying it?

Re: Skyfall (Mendes, 2012) — The Double-O Reviews Thread
 

After one viewing, I'd say this is easily the best Bond film since Goldeneye.

Re: Skyfall (Mendes, 2012) — The Double-O Reviews Thread
 

After two viewings, I'd say this is the best Bond film since On Her Majesty's Secret Service.

Ebert's review: http://www.rogerebert.com/apps/pbcs....IEWS/121109990

4 stars (same rating he gave Casino Royale, which oddly isn't mentioned in the review though Quantum of Solace is). It's an all out rave review.

Re: Skyfall (Mendes, 2012) — The Double-O Reviews Thread
 

Even better than Octopussy?!

Re: Skyfall (Mendes, 2012) — The Double-O Reviews Thread
 

Of all people I thought for sure you'd use "Skylawl".

Re: Skyfall (Mendes, 2012) — The Double-O Reviews Thread
 

Is Supermallet not allowed to give honest reviews until the official release or something?

Re: Skyfall (Mendes, 2012) — The Double-O Reviews Thread
 

Why do you think I'm not being honest?
