I think the second film is my favorite, definitely moves a little better than the first and gets to play around in their world a bit more. In a way it reminds me of "Tarzan the Ape Man" and "Tarzan and His Mate" that way. But after the second Thin Man movie they started to lose me. Never cottoned on to the kid. <br /><br />I agree with the comment security too. Its pretty annoying and the main reason why I try to do all my blog reading and posting on one day when I've got time to just stay logged in. :)Roman J.

Example: I like all 5 of the sequels to The Thin Man better than The Thin Man. Yet, I can't imagine the series without that first one setting the tone.<br /><br />As you say, no one had any idea James Bond would be such a successful moviehouse mainstay, so in Dr. No there are skimps and crimps more suitable for, say, a Mike Hammer movie -- though I like Kiss me Deadly (1955). Still, all the elements of the "Bond Film" are there, and no true fan of the series would want to miss where it all started. <br /><br />By the way, while I understand the reasons for the security precautions against spammers and hackers, the hoop jumps before you can comment on a blogger site (sign out, now sign in but uncheck the "stay signed in box," wait! do the captcha) is a pain in the posterior.Richard Bellushhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10108081864942272619noreply@blogger.com
