Look up who owns the nuclear codes for the US
When you’re done crying…we’ll get get back to what we’re saying.
It wouldn’t be a day that ended in ‘y’ if there weren’t some story about MGM and something that could potentially lead to more financial difficulties.
You think this is not a potential problem that will delay decisions on Bond‘s future?

It will almost definitely cause delays, but the US government have (possibly accidentally) given Amazon far too much power for this to be any more than a tiny dog yapping.

That is comforting for Bond fans and troubling for mankind.

Ironically though, it’s the US government giving Amazon far too much power that might be the exact reason why THIS might be more than a tiny dog yapping…
At best, this is going to cause uncertainty for the near future, but the political winds might be shifting into a disadvantageous one for the current administration by November, so they don’t have a huge window to act in with any consequence.

Reading a very long article about the head of the FTC Lina Khan published today. Here’s the one relevant passage for Bond fans…

They could have at least forked out for a + that matches the MGM font.
Supply chain issues. Do you have any idea how hard it is to get a + these days?

The G looks weird, too.

This makes life easier…I can just change channel rather than go through all that effort of picking up blu-rays from right next to the tv…or using the free digital copies that came with them…I have more copies of the series than I can ever watch.

So no reason to buy the 4K discs when they come out, is there? Take Ms. Orion out to dinner and the theatre with the money you save.

Oh yes… half a dozen different copies of OHMSS alone (SE German, SE UK, UE German, UE Swedish, UE German promo screener, ABC cut), plus three or four digital version in various qualities. And I still haven’t got it on BluRay or VHS

Currently watching the Sound of 007 on Prime.
Billie Eilish comes across very well. Such a talented artist. I don’t think she gets enough credit for her vocals on No Time to Die.

Just finished the Sound of 007 doc. I really liked it. I was surprised to see Marc Forster! I really hope we get his audio commentary track for QoS one day. 60th was a bit of a dud, wasn’t it? I was hoping for a 4K steel book announcement. Oh well.

I enjoyed ‘The Sound of 007’ immensely but wished it had been about 10 minutes longer and covered some of the songs and composers they left out.

Yes, my only complaint is how some contributions got no real coverage, including the relaunch and birth of the Craig era with Casino Royale. What a nice tribute to Chris Cornell that could’ve been.
