Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
When the Apple iPhone commercial began airing, my first thought was that I wanted one. My second thought: How much will I get in residuals for the one-second clip from the first Charlie’s Angels?
The answer came yesterday in a big green envelope:

I'm watching Casino Royale for the first time. Right now I'm slogging through the "we're in love part". I didn't read any spoilers so I wasn't sure exactly how it ended, I kept waiting for the girl to get killed.
Daniel Craig makes a super super super sexy Bond. And in some lights he looks like a beefier CKR. It's kinda weird.
Although that kind of torture gets a PG 13 rating and if there was smoking they'd want an R probably. The MPAA rating system is fucked up.

I'm sure if they'd actually shown the parts of Bond Le Chiffre was abusing, it would have gotten an R or NC-17.
And possibly a significant boost at the box office.

There should have been more skin. I wanted Vesper to be bad through and through not blackmailed into it. And then dying to free James or whatever.
Wait! It's over James Bond has a big gun and a man at his feet there should be more killing.
No to add Daniel Craig to the netflix list. The running stuff was really really good. Nice to see it done really well and then have Bond struggling a long, but still getting the guy.
There are talks of another movie right?

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
If you liked Daniel Craig, you should watch Layer Cake. I also really liked him in Infamous, the other Truman Capote movie.

I have Layer Cake, he is fine to be told in that and Infamous is on my list.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
He was also quite good in LOVE IS THE DEVIL where he played a would-be thief who becomes Derek Jacobi's (playing Francis Bacon) tormented lover. Not a fun movie, but both Craig and Jacobi are amazing.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
