For me it doesn't hit Skyfall's heights, but neither does it drop the ball anywhere near as badly as NTTD ends up doing. -

SPECTRE - 'Brofeld', Sam Smith's dirge and the odd piece of illogical plotting aside (Madeline being left to wander off alone after her and 007 get back to London following the destruction of Blofeld's base, for example), fairly solid middle-tier Bond. -

Meteor's original SFX director got fired and his work up to then was unusable, so others were brought in to reshoot the sequences with whatever was left in the budget. They were also fired, and again others were brought in to finish the effects with the (now presumably diminished even further) remaining budget cash and with 2 months to go to the release date. -
The 'visionaries' line is a nice callback to Connery's 'World domination, same old dream. Our asylums are full of people who think they're Napoleon ... or God' from Dr No.

Bond and a meteor? They already did that, and it apparently didn't turn out too well. That reminds me, one of the ideas that was mooted for Zorin's eeeevil scheme in AVTAK was him manipulating the course of Halley's Comet. -

Ghostbusters : Frozen Empire - another eeeevil supernatural entity threatens the world, and 'busters old and new step up to stop it. Reasonable fun, but unfortunately it doesn't really manage to find enough for all of the characters to do.

To me, Bond changing gender is a crazy conversation that doesn't even need to happen. Guess I'm a dinosaur. -

Ghostbusters/Ghostbusters : Afterlife - spooky comedy double-bill, ahead of seeing Frozen Empire tomorrow. The original is a beloved movie from my early teens, and Afterlife nicely carries things on with Egon Spengler's daughter and grandkids moving to the dirt farm he left them. Naturally, it's not long before the supernatural shit starts hittin' the fan. Warm-hearted tribute to the late Harold Ramis is paid, and the disastrous 2016 movie is wisely ignored. -

007 is the agent/code number yes, and can be redesignated (as shown in No Time To Die). But James Bond is his actual name. -
While we're ghostbustin' ... 'He slimed me! Man, I feel so funky!' 'Everything was fine with our system until the power grid was shut off by dickless here.' 'They caused an explosion!' 'Is this true?' 'Yes it's true ... this man has no dick.' 'Ray, when someone asks you if you're a god ... you say YES!'

'You blow up my beloved car? Fine ... I'll blow up my ancestral family home in order to destroy the 'copter that did it. How do you like THEM apples, you bastard?' is what I imagine went through Bond's head, lol. -

Indeed. And technically speaking, the only 'truly English-born' Bonds were Moore and Craig ... Dalton was born in Colwyn Bay in Wales and Connery was (famously) Edinburgh-born. An actual Black Widow/Bond link was finding out (from her fair-to-middling origin movie) that Natasha is a big fan of Moonraker.
