OT: taga davao diay ka sir? or just visiting?
yeah i agree, original kaayo ang pagka kontrabida ni bardem. he was also very convincing, maayo jud sya nga artista. but i was already expecting his character to be that way. (pandamay jud ning mag una2 ug basa sa mga reviews)
almost 3 hours man akong gi-type sir. hehe i admit the opening action sequences were exciting. but after that, imo there's really nothing new (aside from bardem's character and the new q)
but watching the aston martin with hidden machine guns and an ejector seat button for me really was just a gimmick to appease probably the older jb fans. kung huna hunaon, pwede man wala na tong aston martin. they already set the premise that they were setting traps, so no need for hidden machine guns to deploy and kill the baddies. katong nag switch sila ug sakyanan from bonds secret garage, they could just have made it a secret warehouse of guns and ammunition

im not a spy, but i think its more realistic for an mi6 agent to retrieve a secret supply of weapons (knowing that you are laying a trap for your enemy) rather than a spy car. given nagsalig si bond nga daghan sya armas sa skyfall, and its probably a mental lapse in him not to think about the status of his family's estate after his supposedly mia/kia status but still murag dili kaayo convincing hehe. as what ive said, they referenced old jb movies probably just to get some laughs from the audience.
