That drove me frikkin' crazy in "Jurassic World." Seriously, would any of you ladies (or men-I won't judge) run away from dinosaurs in heels? That was one crazy chick. She made me suspect that the movie wasn't real.

When I was young, I loved Bond books and movies, but the whole premise has gotten a bit stale. Smarticus recently had an all-day marathon of James Bond movies on the TV. Even though I wasn't paying much attention, if I had heard the theme song just one more time, I may very well have shot the television...<br /><br />Have a super weekend.Susan Flett Swiderskihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09425315552148200073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2379826084010321238.post-80198823982948830612015-11-20T08:54:58.225-06:002015-11-20T08:54:58.225-06:00I heard it was a bit dull, which is not good for a...I heard it was a bit dull, which is not good for a Bond film. Plus really long. I actually thought Skyfall was just all right, so if this isn't even as good, then I'm glad I didn't go to see it in the theater.Alex J.

Also I agree not really the best film to have seen just after Paris -but life goes on. Good to read .. people will still see it .. I haven't but our cinema has been full.

There are only so many times cars, beautiful women, and villains will keep us intrigued.
