Oh, hey, you know what I also know quite well? GRAVITY!
That’s why I hate Bond’s fall from the bridge at the end of the Skyfall PTS. There’s no way he would have survived that (not to mention, after being shot).

Same for me. TND is obviously a sequel to GE, but I do feel the residual energy of its predecessor in there. As a younger fan I liked that aspect because it was resembling something I already liked - while still being a different experience. Both open at snowy mountainside locations with Bond escaping via plane. Running along the print press catwalks evoked the St Petersburg archives. We had a henchman who enjoys pain, and detonating an explosive during the finale. Small things like that sprinkled throughout the runtime but rather significant.
“Gentlemen, and ladies, hold the presses. This just in…and a billion people around this planet will watch it, hear it, and read about it from the Carver Media Group!”
Is it me, or was Brosnan’s era more progressive than the Oscars? As the first black woman to win an Oscar handed the first Asian woman to win an Oscar were BOTH “Bond girls” first?
Trendsetting again. And nobody recognized it.
Tomorrow Never Dies becomes more and more timely every day.
