That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

That parody totally made my day.

Mount Doom, After It Erupts:

[Screen goes black]

PETER JACKSON: Frodo and Sam don’t get burned up by the lava.

AUDIENCE: What?

PETER JACKSON: Frodo and Sam don’t get burned up by the lava. I’m explaining to you because you looked nervous.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.

They've announced the new James Bond. And he's blond. And I've never seen him in anything.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Really? Him? He's just so....unattractive.

Not suave.

The props definitely do not make the 007.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Looks like they're going back to the action-adventure Bond and away from the suave lover in a tuxedo .

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Daniel Craig is more in the Sean Connery mold than the Pierce Brosnan. He has a tough persona, but he also played poet Ted Hughes in Sylvia, so he can do smart and passionate. I was very impressed with him in Layer Cake. He's one of those who doesn't look like much in pictures, but his intensity and voice and physicality make him very charismatic onscreen.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

Saw the King Kong trailer before Serenity. Gotta say, it looks good on the big screen.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I'm actually pretty happy about the new Bond choice. I loved his character in Layer Cake. He'll do a good job of being believably dangerous.

Lurching from one disaster to the next.

I'm not sure why they're making a big deal out of his hair colour. It looks the same as Roger Moore's hair.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Daniel Craig!

I don't care really for the Bond franchise and cannot remember the last Bond flick I've seen, but I might just have to see the next one if he's going to be Bond.

I agree with Robin. He's not handsome in a conventional way, but in three films I've seen him in (Mother, Layer Cake, and Sylvia), he had an incredibly magnetic screen presence. Intense, a bit dangerous, and a generally sexy bag of sex.

Hey. New board.

I even liked him in Tomb Raider. I have no bad opinions about this choice.
