Chris took the day off of work so we could deal with cleaning (which reminds me-- I left a load of laundry in the washer. Must deal with that in a moment) and packing some more stuff and dealing with realtors/insurance people. Fun.
Now we're done for the day, and Chris is watching a James Bond movie. Goldfinger. Memorable for Odd Job (I still want that hat) and the name Pussy Galore. You know you've listened to Rent too much when she introduces herself and you say, "In person!"
I love making fun of the Bond movies; they're so utterly cheesy. But they're fun cheesy. I hear Daniel Craig's going to be the new Bond, and I don't think I've seen him in anything, so no previous impressions to go on. Wonder if they'll continue the cheesy tradition, or go with the tone of the novels-- I haven't read any yet, but I've heard that they were actually pretty dark.
So, as long as we're on the subject, who is everyone's 'actual' James Bond, and who would you like to see play him? I know for a lot of people it's Sean Connery, but I'm always going to associate Roger Moore with the role because he was the one to play it in the first Bond movie I saw. As for who I'd like to see play him-- I heard a rumor once that Ralph Fiennes was in talks, and I would've been curious to see that because that basically would've guaranteed a renovation from the "one liner, sex, gadget, bad pun, improbable escape, one liner, sex" formula.
I still want the toys, though. And I definitely wouldn't mind the cars.
