Disgraceful bade taste Goldeneye reference!


So the film starts off with Pierce Brosnan about to jump off the building. But why was it that his movements before jumping looked familiar. Yes, that's right because I'd seen it before in Goldeneye! Only when he jumps in Goldeneye he's attached to a bungee rope. Perhaps it wasn't intended. Maybe Martin Sharp had seen Goldeneye himself and decided to do the same movements as James Bond before jumping off the building.

Seemed rather bad taste to me for a moment that's supposed to be so emotive.

Explain how an actor having limited range is equatable with "bad taste".

Go take a step outside - see what's shaking in the real world.

It was probably meant to be a funny nod to the earlier film.

Ever read Hornby? He sort of likes "funny."




'Then' and 'than' are different words - stop confusing them.
