Don't make me write a Reelists article about why the Bond franchise has consistently produced some of the very worst action films ever.

BFF terminated.

I'm so sorry. I didn't really mean it. It was a heat of the moment type thing. How can I make it up to you?

I just might make a Be Corndog's BFF competition, which would be open to all, including you, and you would have to compete, just like you made people compete for you before.

StarCarly exempt, of course.

I would pull a pixote the likes of which pixote itself could never dream of.

So that mystery has been resolved...
-Le Chiffre: You changed your shirt, Mr Bond. I hope our little game isn't causing you to perspire.

-James Bond: A little. But I won't consider myself to be in trouble until I start weeping blood.

Any chance of these two meeting up in the 80s bracket?

Die Hard's in region 7, Back to the Future in region 2 ... so if they meet, it wouldn't be until the Elite Eight, at the earliest.  Well, in less one of them loses early and then gets resurrected or swapped into the other's region ... my non-reading of the rules tells me that's possible.

BTTF FTW.

Both movies are definitely nostalgic favorites, but Back to the Future was the ultimate teenage fantasy when I first saw it in the theater. I don't think I ever saw the sequels.

Also, I've never seen a message board poll that lasted for 2 years before. Kudos.

P.S. A guy in my office sometimes drives his DeLorean to work. He told me he seriously considered tricking it out Emmett Brown-style, but decided against it since he actually uses the car for transportation.
