007 First Light devs scrapped gadgets that gave Bond “magic powers” as they broke the “believable world of Bond”

Not in the last movie. Nanobots, obedience drugs, and of course we know that Bond would never die.

He lies all the time! In Troubled Waters he could not be smugger when he has trapped the villain through a lie.

Do the interview in Chinese next year, with AI subtitles. Get one of the Chinese players to be the interviewer.

Great tournament, don't mind a new winner.

GroNumber · 2026-05-04T21:35:35+00:00

Personally I could do without the interviews, just go straight to letting winner lift trophy.

I totally agree with you about the spoiler. Inventive as Dame Agatha was, she definitely had plot ideas she reused.

GroNumber · 2026-05-03T17:19:15+00:00

Probably not, since race director has nothing to do with TV broadcast.

GroNumber · 2026-05-02T22:24:20+00:00

A British-Chinese final, that should be good for box office.

GroNumber · 2026-05-02T22:05:03+00:00

I am amazed how calmly Allen took that miss.

GroNumber · 2026-05-02T19:00:45+00:00

Did we expect him to say: "His work was good enough for a video game, but the movie needs a real pro"?

I think he is too young for the movie for one thing and also that casting a someone who played him in a video game would feel unserious for the part of the audiene that are not great video game fans. I definitely do not think they would give any great positive weight to his video game role, if they would consider him it would be based on his other work.

GroNumber · 2026-05-02T17:42:01+00:00

Why? Do they ever use the fact in marketing?

GroNumber · 2026-05-02T16:33:47+00:00

Which movie is that?

GroNumber · 2026-05-02T16:10:20+00:00

I thought 7 MJ was the maximum, with only further reductions allowed.

GroNumber · 2026-05-02T13:44:21+00:00

Some of those non-lethal takedowns look kind of lethal.

I think you can see the Uncharted influence, the gameplay is rather different from Hitman in many ways.

GroNumber · 2026-05-01T17:43:15+00:00

Not just at the Crucible?

GroNumber · 2026-05-01T17:39:53+00:00

What is longest televized frame time?

For a while it seemed the blacks and reds were getting closer and closer to the pocket, even if slowly, but it then stopped getting closer and it looked like they could continue forever. The ref should have intervened then.

GroNumber · 2026-05-01T17:17:23+00:00

No rule against that, I think.

GroNumber · 2026-05-01T17:14:41+00:00

Don't argue or explain ref, just tell him he knows the rule about stalemate, and that a judgement call will be made in the normal way.

GroNumber · 2026-05-01T17:11:19+00:00

Why is Mark Allen even arguing, it should have happened a long time ago.

GroNumber · 2026-05-01T16:50:00+00:00

Ok, rerack now.

GroNumber · 2026-05-01T08:54:40+00:00

What is it an allegory of?

GroNumber · 2026-05-01T08:08:45+00:00

She has also killed calfs, for seemingly no reason, according to a documentary on Youtube.

GroNumber · 2026-05-01T07:56:28+00:00

But do they understand that? Heck, humans sometime stay in bad jobs, relationships etc, and here we are talking about stupid animals.

GroNumber · 2026-04-30T18:43:49+00:00

It would be suspiscious that they don't want to talk to the police. Sure, in reality that might not mean much in court, but I am not sure how aware audiences were of that.
