After witnessing the marvels of Face/Off, M:I-2 and The Killer, I'm in need of some more John Woo action-fests.

Recommendations please (John Woo films only, obviously).

Oh, and what's that Hard Boiled thing like?

Ta.

Necros out of The Living Daylights.

The whole bit where he walks into the safe house as a milkman and proceeds to level the place is sheer class.

Something I want to know:

Did Enter the Dragon come out before or after The Man With The Golden Gun?

Whichever one came out second borrowed heavily from the earlier one.

I think Lazenby is wrongly criticised.

Its a better Bond film than most remember it.

who was your favourite bad guy? it's gotta be jaws for me.

*car driving after bonds lotus, jaws hanging out the window shooting*

*car flies off cliff*

*car lands in roof of house*

*jaws exits through front door, brushes his suit jacket, adjusts his tie, and walks off*

Ah you don't know the history then. :P

It's a remake of Thunderball by the guy who loaned the script out so they could make Thunderball. Then this guy made it the way he thought it should have been done.

Also get Casino Royal to complete your collection. ;)

Goldeneye was good but at it's basis it was just a load of action sequences put togeather.

What everyone forgets about Lazenby is that he did the best hand to hand fights of any of the Bonds. Watch OHMSS again and watch those fists fly!

Very cool.

yeah, brosnan has potential, but in my view, the only good one he has starred in is goldeneye.

roger moore was camp, but starred in some of the best films - spy who loved me (with jaws), for your eyes only, and live and let die

connery made the role his

lazenby should have been castrated
