Connery wasn’t beaten by anyone. He never liked the role and was happy to leave it.
He got creative control and a boatload of money for “Never Say Never Again” which was better than any Moore outing.

Arthur C. Clarke wrote that when the Solar System gets colonized, people who grew up under different gravities would have a hard time competing with each other. He proposed an Olympics with events like slide rule and painting.

FYI, you put in “bending machines.”
otoh, Japan does have some bizarre adult devices so maybe you were correct?
Thanks. I was baffled and bemused
This was a mainstream TV show intro.
Goldman’s other works tend to get ignored. “Magic” and “Marathon Man” are incredible thrillers. Both were turned into excellent movies.
“Butch Cassidy And The Sundance Kid” was written by the author of “The Princess Bride.”
There’s a lot of Butch in Inigo, and a little of Sundance in Wesley.
It’s a great movie.
I learned about it from reading your comment…
The circle is unbroken
Does anyone else wonder how people like this survive in the real world? Like, they tilt themselves into a stroke over a silly comment on the internet.
I know this might surprise you, but there is a small minority of the population that hasn’t watched every episode of every show ever made.
For those poor souls, it might be nice to add a link so they know what in G$d’s name you are talking about.
Yeah, back in the day people really cared whether someone was octoroon or mulatto.
Today, many people are going to have to look up those terms.
In “The Forever War” the recruits tell the non-coms ‘fuck you’ once a day. Failed experiment

Your wisdom is only overshadowed by your generosity.
I’ll give Moore credit for one thing.
He made the producers have Bond nope out of sleeping with a very young actress in one of his later outings.
And I’ll give kudos to Timothy Dalton. His movies were made in the middle of the ‘safe sex’ 1980s. He wasn’t allowed to smoke or sleep around. I think if he’d been given better scripts he’d have been a much better Bond than Brosnan .
