I'm with Tucker on this one, Spectre was terrible in pretty much every way. Although unlike you guys, I think Craig has checked out and gone into "latter era Connery" mode at this point.

Never heard of China Gate. Sounds great, but it has a caucasian guy made up in Asian make up? That can really ruin a movie for me. Micky Rooney is the only guy who can pull off the Asian make up anyway. #Breakfastattiffany's
