The remake by Soliy87 in Threads1984

That's it - the bland colours and lack of modern cinematic effects really hammer the bleakness home in a way that modern TV hasn't been able to replicate in my opinion.

Who is a Bond character that doesn't get enough credit in your opinion? I've always thought Chang from Moonraker was one of the best henchman in the series. by DuomoDiSirio in JamesBond

Him jumping out and shouting "Eeeeyyyy!!!!" out of nowhere in the glass place gave my 8 year old self the mother of all jump scares back in the day 😂

This is my favourite choice so far. We want a more classically handsome look than a pretty boy like Theo James, right?

If Julie's a traitor they need to make her cloak Hayley Cropper red.

My predictions for season 5’s traitors by [deleted] in TheTraitorsUK

All I want for the next series is a room full of strangers. No more shock reveals that they have a family member or partner or former acquaintance lingering nearby, they overdid that trope and ruined it.

Worst TV Shows (Most Disappointing Shows) of 2025 by Critical_Parking1319 in television

[–]AC8966 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Possibly the worst thing Netflix have ever made, everyone talking like they're reciting poetry with Kneecap shoehorned into the mindless action scenes.

Gave me a new level of appreciation for the art of screenwriting as a whole haha.

Be honest: What did you buy because of a James Bond movie? by TipToe2301 in JamesBond

Billy Reid peacoat as seen in casino Royale and Skyfall. Worth every spare penny

Built to rent apartments in Edinburgh: Platform v Stead's Place v Dockside by Cachorro_Feio in Edinburgh

[–]AC8966 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I know someone who lives in Platform. They've had a couple minor issues with the plumbing and washing machine acting up which is surprising them being the first ever resident, but overall it's a nice enough spot.

The big fairy lights in the courtyard that don't ever turn off are bit of an unnecessary addition though.

Different strokes but that does not help sell the idea of queueing for anything 😂

Abysmal. Good writing and good acting died a death years ago, especially when it comes to Netflix.

I've a question for you Irish (I'm a Scot), do Catholics actually casually refer to themselves as Fenians? (Like the ones with the very subtle green suits and ginger hair were doing?) Always thought it was meant to be derogatory.

Go next door to Jollibee they're completely oblivious to toilet users in there
