Izabella Scorupco. She was in some shitty movie with Christian Bale. I think it was called Reign of Fire.
It's actually not uncommon for Bond girls to never really do anything else.

Just realising that Harrison Ford is gonna be 78 when Indiana Jones 5 comes out... that's three years older than George Hall was when he portrayed the old, retired Indiana Jones in the 90s show.

Are they seriously dusting him off for another? "You belong in a museum" is gonna have a whole different meaning to it!

Looked up George Hall as Indiana, and he has a sweet eyepatch. Why couldn't they have taken some inspiration from that and had Indiana lose an eye in some crazy voodoo adventure for the 4th movie and then retire?

Anyway, unless Indy is raiding a forbidden tomb under his retirement home and it's done very tongue in cheek, this is definitely going to be the biggest steamiest piece of shit in the franchise. The question is, will it be worse than Last Jedi?

I watched some of his acting for fun, and he's actually not bad at all as Indiana. He doesn't really replicate Harrison Ford, but somehow you can still totally tell it's the same character. I wouldn't mind a different sort of Indiana Jones film where he has to compensate for his age(but you know that won't happen).

I really don't mind another Old Indy. Spielberg on the other hand needs to retire. He's been phoning it in since The Lost World and that fucking Ready Player One was one of the most generic CG-filled pieces of shit this side of a Marvel movie.

Quantum of Solace had the worst title song in the franchise history, far worse than Madonna's ten-years-too-late techno vomit. The editing was also too much in the opening chase and the boat scene. Otherwise, it was a lean mean little revenge movie that I thought was well acted and well shot. If you could improve on its few faults it would easily be in the series' top 10.

Gemma Arterton, Olga Kurylenko, a normal villain who just wants to steal water from the people, and Bond is only out to get him because he killed his friend and his walking sex toy. The fight with the assassin in the hotel was pretty sweet, and the editing in the final hotel confrontation was pretty cool too. It's different. Even David Arnold finally stepped up and made a score worth listening to.

It's underrated, but Bond has made way too many decent films for it to be top 10 material.

Lets see: OHMSS, From Russia With Love, Casino Royale, GoldenEye, The Spy Who Loved Me, and then what? Don't try and act like that hepcat Goldfinger shit was any good. Most Bond movies are ass but we love them anyway. They were never high art and didn't try to be until Skyfall and Spectre.

Seriously, fuck that Blofeld brother shit. Fuck it hard up the ass without lube.
