    This month ,I've watched DAF and LALD -{
    They have the usual extras from the ultimate DVD collection
    Both in my opinion have transfered very well, I'd say that
    LALD looks a little better. Although I know LALD ( along with
    TMWTGG ) was filmed in a different aspect ratio, and somehow
    I feel I'm missing something when it's not in the letterbox shape. :D

    Do they still have the pointless 'Activate' Option before you get to the main Menu?

    I agree about Connery's Performance in YOLT -{
    I was watching closely and with high definition to see if I could catch an occasional blank stare or a non-reaction to another actor, and it just never happened. Sure, he's a tad less physically lively during scenes where he's walking, but that could just be that he was naturally getting older... IMO he delivered an impressive & professional performance. I think many who slate him for his so called phone in are just a bit too familiar with the behind the scenes stuff and are translating that to the movie itself.
    Dalton & Connery rule. Brozz was cool.

    He was full of enthusiasm compared to his really laid back
    Performance in DAF. -{

    Also, that little white Toyota just glistened. Freddie Young's photography never looked so good!

    Also love Connery's performance in YOLT. Never got the whole Boredom thing. Seemed like an overblown leap after the mishaps with the Japanese media.
  • AlphaOmegaSinAlphaOmegaSin EnglandPosts: 10,926MI6 Agent
    Connery got to play with lots of Japanese Girls, who are undoubtedly some of the prettiest on Earth -{

    Sadly though he mentioned in an interview, that he didn't find
    Them very attractive. :#

    Yes, probably not the smartest thing he's ever done :#

    What I really enjoy with YOLT is Barry's score.
    Though the main theme is quite romantic (and very asian), the sharp short and serious tunes during the movie make it very special.

    IMO the most serious tune - though Moonraker is my absolute favorite Barry score.
    Will watch YOLT over the weekend.

    Just finished YOLT on Blu Ray, and.. I got words...

    First, wow did it look great.
    Second, I'm SO tired of hearing how SC phoned in his performance- he was freakin' stellar here IMO.
    Third, poor cat- I'd run too...

    Yes indeed! -{

    He has some wonderful war stories !
    That night he and some mates dumped a load of tea into a harbour.
    and some bloke Benny Franklin, flying a kite to get electricity. I guess
    They did a lot of drinking, way back then. :p ;) :))

    So, in terms of franchises I have 4 Bond movies now in Blu Ray, two from Star Trek, the three Robocops (it was a set or it would only be 2), and none from Star Wars or Indy. I guess I know what my actual favourite franchise is then, eh? :))

    QOS may be my next BR purchase.
