I talk to CBC about the [less] recent development that Omega have hired Bond contender Aaron Taylor-Johnson as a new ambassador. Some folk immediately synced their watches to ponder 'Is it him?!', but are they right...? www.cbc.ca/news/enterta... #Bond26 #JamesBond #AaronTaylorJohnson #Omega

'This film will self-destruct in 10 thousand, 200 seconds....' Despite some truly awful first act exposition, #TheFinalReckoning    is still a triumph of franchise cinema with a cracking final act. That match has another strike in it yet. #MissionImpossible    #TomCruise

Forever a gent. Forever Bond. Forever Moore. Remembering Roger Moore today eight years on since he drove a Lotus Esprit to that Pinewood soundstage in the sky and left a rich moonlit trail of movie memories, matinee suavity and yesteryear heroism. #RogerMoore #JamesBond #SirRogerMoore

A CALIFORNA '85 GIRL! 40 years of dancing into the BOND '85 fire separate these 2 photos. Producer Cubby Broccoli gave me this merch in a flurry of new movie pride. Both the tee & leg bomb still fit, but the short shorts & Catholic sandals are only now for special! #AViewtoaKill #AViewtoaKill40

His Napoleonic spin in THE LIVING DAYLIGHTS (1987) was a prescient swipe at Oliver North & Reagan. Jack Wade in GOLDENEYE & TOMORROW NEVER DIES put the spirit of Leiter into the Brosnan era. Rest in peace, Joe Don Baker. #JoeDonBaker #RIPJoeDonBaker #TheLivingDaylights #GoldenEye #TomorrowNeverDies
