MY DEFINITIVE RANKING OF THE JAMES BOND THEME SONGS

MY DEFINITIVE RANKING OF THE JAMES BOND THEME SONGS With the upcoming release of Spectre on November 6, I’ve been rewatching the entire franchise and listening to those beloved theme songs. Just like the movies themselves, the songs range from classics to downright questionable. Without further adieu here is my ranking counting down from the worst to the very best. Here we go! 24. “Another Way to Die” performed by Jack White and Alicia Keys From Quantum of Solace (2008) Music and Lyrics by: Jack White The instrumentals feel appropriate for a Bond theme, but Jack and Alicia’s vocals do not blend whatsoever. Don’t getRead More →

FALL MOVIE PREVIEW 2015 EDITION

FALL MOVIE PREVIEW 2015 EDITION This fall season may be one of the best in recent years. It’s chock-full of exceptionally buzzy movies that I’m super excited about. We have films from big directors (Spielberg, Abrams, Mendes, Scott), promising teen/children’s movies (The Good Dinosaur, Goosebumps, The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2), and of course plenty of movies looking for Oscar gold. ‘Tis the season! I had a hard time narrowing down my top ten, but here they are: 10. THE DANISH GIRL Director: Tom Hooper Starring: Eddie Redmayne, Alicia Vikander, Matthias Schoenaerts, Ben Whishaw Eddie Redmayne reteams with his Les Miserables director Tom Hooper andRead More →

Movie Trailer: SPECTRE

SPECTRE Director: Sam Mendes Starring: Daniel Craig, Ralph Fiennes, Naomie Harris, Ben Wihshaw, Christoph Waltz, Léa Seydoux, Dave Bautista, Monica Bellucci Every time I hear that iconic James Bond theme, I get those little goosebumps of excitement. Daniel Craig is back to play the iconic Ian Fleming character under the direction of Skyfall director Sam Mendes. I absolutely loved the last James Bond film and am really looking forward to see what direction they take the series. Skyfall saw the return of Q now played by Ben Whishaw and Ralph Fiennes was appointed the new M at the end of that film. I blogged myRead More →
