Only in the sense that he's sad Jean is dead. It's not like the Juggernaut is running through Tokyo spouting catchphrases.

I'm quite excited for The Wolverine, and Famke Janssen cameos only whet my excitement. Let's just say that Xenia Onatopp came along at a defining moment in my life. Luckily, I just scored some replacement X3 Mates after putting my old ones in the MM10 exhibit.

TRU 16 should be out pretty soon, we've had packaged samples for a while now. 17 actually ships from China soon, as well. More info soon!

She is, in my mind, simultaneously one of the most entertaining Bond girls & Bond villains ever. I have harboured a very serious crush on her ever since watching Goldeneye.

It helps that Goldeneye is the BEST Bond film of all time. Even Natalia is stunning. And Trevelyan is my favorite Bond villain.

...we really need Bond Minimates...

Also, yep, i'm seeing The Wolverine solely for more Phoenix. With her having a poster, i'm hoping she's more than a flashback cameo.

I second both of these things. It should at least be the set up for the next X-Film.

Look, I "get" the power of nostalgia, but I will NEVER understand this train of thought. The McGuffin is ABSURD, and the only thing moreso is Pierce Brosnan as the epitome of effeteness. Every part of the final battle is ridiculus. Xenia is the film's one singular saving grace.

Mind you, just my opinion. But for my money, everything Daniel Craig's done has been head and shoulders above Brosnan's gentleman ghost approach.

I'm of the opposite opinion. Daniel's Bonds bore me, since I don't like my spys beat up or getting bloody or anything. He is the best spy, so I assume he is smart enough to use his wits to avoid confrontation Edited by Zexion_Armando

I grew up a fan of Roger Moore's Bond. I liked the gadgets and the more ridiculous villains & plots. I like Craig's portrayal of Bond. It's nice to see Bond be human. I thought Brosnan was a good combo of the classic Bond & Dalton's cutthroat Bond. That being said, Brosnan got some shitty scripts with Goldeneye being the best. I like Goldeneye, it was a return to form for the franchise & I'm all for more Sean Bean but give me Craig's Bond any day of the week. What I'm really trying to say is we need Bond minimates! (There's a series that would never be completed?!)

Oh no one get me wrong, Goldeneye may be my favorite, but Brosnan isn't my favorite Bond. I think he has the best physical look of them all, but in terms of favorites, I'm a Roger Moore guy. I've enjoyed all of his era much more than any other, with the exceptions being Goldeneye and Skyfall. Roger Moore is THE James Bond, in my opinion; he's even who i picture when reading both Fleming's or Gardner's novels. If it were possible to transplant Roger Moore into Goldeneye, i'd never leave my house from watching it forever.

...what were we talking about again? Wolverine? Well, Bond is the best he is at what he does, so i guess that ties the conversation together.

You're all wrong. Connery in From Russia with love is the definitive bond IMO.

Moore was very much a bond of his time.

I've always thought Dalton was closest to the books in temperment but given horrible movies to work with.

I was pretty sure I wouldn't like Brosnan when he was given the part, but he grew on me an is prob my second favourite bond.

Lazenby... who?? nuff said.

Craig is good but watching him doesn't feel like a bond movie to me.

Tray shots! Tray shots! Tray shots!

This isn't the first time a Famke Jansen character has taken one thing and turned it into something it's not supposed to be........

If you got the Nip/Tuck reference, good job.
