I’m sure none of you except for JPX knows that I’m a bit of a germ-a-phobic. It’s annoying, but manageable. Though, since I met JPX and list...

That Moonraker poster is a riot. Man, that movie sucked. I was doing my own Bondathon a few years back and Moonraker stopped it in its tracks.
I don't like the new QOS poster either. Seems to me they could've made the disheveled babe look a lot better.
The disheveled babe looks great in the trailer. And she's doing the same thing: walking.
I read a comment somewhere about the Watchmen trailer -- my favorite topic! -- in which some fanboy said about Malin Akerson, "Just keep doing that walking thing." As any runway model will tell you, walking can be the essence of hotness.
I think the movie looks great and all the posters look great. I'm just so happy about the tone and vibe of this whole project. I was on board with the Daniel Craig casting from the first moment I heard about it, and the movie was (of course) totally fantastic. They just opened up the James Bond box, threw away everything that they didn't like, and kept everything that was cool. Judi Densch? Check. Babes? Check. Aston Martin? Check. Stupid gadgets? Out the window. Orbiting laser satellite? Out the window. Smarmy "Moneypenny" schtick? Out the window. I mean, that's how you do it.
Moonraker is absolutely the nadir of the series. I know they were trying to syphon some Star Wars excitement with their "sci-fi" plot, but come on.
"Let's pretend that there's a whole fleet of American space shuttles ready to launch, full of astronaut/soldiers! Right now, in 1978! Because of the, um, threat of orbiting habitable satellites with armies of thugs on board and big lasers aimed at the earth. Sure."
