Not only is “Live and Let Die” the best bond theme ever, but I consider it the best McCartney — or at least Wings — track. Saw him in concert a few years ago and he just killed it.
Musicians often do their best work for movies. It’s usually while they’re on the road and busy with other things yet clearly provides a needed break from their usual formula. Here’s why: when an artist is approached to create a song, producers are already presold on his work, saying “Here’s a copy of the movie (so far). Do whatever you want.” That freedom pays off, often in a jackpot.
Many Steely Dan fans would pick “FM” as their finest work, a one-off single to a nothing movie most never saw. I use that one as proof that real talents can write a great song about anything — even a radio format.
Very poor shot.
Could barely tell what it was supposed to be.
But I also agree Kotto was one of the best villains.
I was actually scared of him.
He was also quite convincing as the two separate characters.
So much so that every time I see it (every decade or so), I’m surprised anew.
There’s no question they did, making it far bleaker than the original.
A true horror film leaves no hope.
💯
Appreciate the honesty.
No.
It’s one and done.
Main character is dead.
Sin City was not a hit.
Yep.
A lot of turning songs on their head in this soundtrack, esp the loungy version of “Get Down With The Sickness” which sounds like some creepy death cult’s joyous invitation to die.
The only time Ana shows any emotion, possibly for dead husband, is when she sits and starts crying in the security office after getting the first aid kit. But she is quickly jolted back to survival mode by the security guard sent to watch her.
That’s “outside” and “wedlock.”
Did the original theatrical show them on the island full of zombies?
I remember the director’s cut had extra footage of that.
I see what you did there.
They weren’t interested in random opinions, except for reviews.
It was never a discussion board, but more like a Wikipedia for movies.
The man loved his guns.
Preppin’ for the day he could really use ‘em on folk.
He never really liked that security guard thing.
Never out of their holster.
Isn’t that the one where the tabby cat did it?
Conssidering that Scorsese has denied that the ending is Travis's fever dream, it would make sense that … ending is Travis's fever dream?
I see.
The web is full of those who prefer their private delusions to reality, as did Travis.
Sometimes a banana is just a banana.
Why are you yelling?
It has.
$1.85 in 1976 dollars would be $10.23 in 2024.
More actually, because today’s inflation gauge does not include all the consumer items it did back then.

Do you have IMDb?
Google?
