Maverick being a huge hit in the summer of '22 and MI : Dead Reckoning failing to be last summer (especially unexpected for a franchise that has delivered success after success) illustrates 'nobody knows anything' quite well, I think.

I last saw them in '91. Good show, as much a theatrical performance as live gig. -

Transporter 2 - the Stath unleashes his 'certain set of skills' on more Eurotrash baddies in another enjoyably silly actioner. Also starring Jason Flemyng and an arguably slumming it Matthew Modine. -

I'm off to this on Sunday night - I went last year and had a great night ... nostalgic air-punching singalongs aplenty. Also, I saw The Bowie Experience for the second time earlier in the month and that was also a good time. Got the Pet Shop Boys coming up in June, too. -

Next James Bond actor after Daniel Craig?
Sweeping Strings replied to Jay's topic in General Discussion
Can't really recall a proper 'Bond as bon viveur' moment since 'The brand was questionable Sir, so I took the liberty of choosing something else' in Daylights. Probably be regarded as elitist and unrelatable nowadays. -
Next James Bond actor after Daniel Craig?
Sweeping Strings replied to Jay's topic in General Discussion
There was an April Fool's that Bond's smoking in past movies was going to be digitally removed for future Blu-Ray releases (but villains smoking would be left in). -

Or 'close but no triple gold-banded Morlands', to go back to Fleming. -
Next James Bond actor after Daniel Craig?
Sweeping Strings replied to Jay's topic in General Discussion
It coming down to between him and Craig last time round and having The Cold Light Of Day, The Man From U.N.C.L.E., MI : Fallout, Argylle and The Ministry Of Ungentlemanly Warfare on his resume ... has there ever been a more 'close, but no cigar' actor when it comes to Bond than Cavill? -

That genre's posters are definitely ... of a sort, shall we say. You're not wrong about the money, Andy ... Hawk's budget was £600,000, which even back then would've been low. -

The finest line is probably when (after escaping the tiger hunt) Bond is pulled from the river onto a cruise boat and asked 'Are you with our group?' to which Moore responds (in a tone considerably drier than he is) ... 'No ma'am, I'm with the economy tour'. -

Hawk is more of a PG-rated experience than the likes of Deathstalker, if memory serves. John Terry's arguable career highlight was as Felix Leiter in The Living Daylights. -

Bingo! Another channel called Talking Pictures TV has Silent Rage (an apparently utterly preposterous Chuck Norris action/sci-fi/horror number) on tomorrow night, so I'll record that too . -

Could well be part of another 'Saturday night double feature' this weekend, if I can find a suitable second flick.
