    I never said it was. My point was that there are LOTS of people who view it as degrading. My point was that there are people who label themselves as being feminists who feel women working in these fields are only helping in keeping women down as they believe that their own view of feminism, and even their own opinions for that matter, to be superior to someone who may have a different perspective.

    No, I'm not making it seem that way. That's your extremely narrow interpretation of what I said. As far as a waitress goes, there's nothing wrong with it at all. Part of the point I'm trying to make is that there are women who want to do porn, who want to strip, as a means to make money and that, in my opinion, it's wrong for feminists to look down on them for helping to keep women down. I know that you're not that dense and I'm sure you've heard others putting those women down because of their choice and/or maybe you've even done it yourself.

    If you think that women in porn and the feminist views held by many of women who work in porn has nothing to do with it, then you're being disingenuous or naïve.

    Dude, that's literally every single school of thought. Why single out feminists?

Moore's Bond films just happen to be really over the top cheesy, I wish the newer Bond films would just take a little bit of that fun into the newer films.
    Brosnan is actually my favourite bond and that's not just to keep the memory of Coco alive, I think he's the complete package of suave, badass and likeable, I don't think any of the other actors quite get all three down in the same way he does. Moore is definitely the most likeable though, and my personal second favourite.

    As for Moore's films, I accept the cheese so long as it's somewhat based in reality, which probably explains my general mixed feelings about Live And Let Die. I mean, magic literally exists in the James Bond universe. I can buy Moonraker because while it's basically science fiction, it's based in some form of reality and it's a really fun film. Magic is where I really draw the line (although you could make the argument Samedi is using smoke and mirrors, but even then, it's not presented very well in that case.)

    Edward Norton is the best movie version of Bruce Banner/Hulk.

    He pretty much carried the first half of Incredible Hulk on his own and I just prefer his Hulk design to Mark Ruffalo's

    This is despicable. Unconscionable. I can't just stand by and let this lie:

    James Bond really shouldn't be all that likeable - he is a cold-hearted killer, an investigative assassin rather than a spy. Connery and Craig pull that off well when that switch is flicked, but personally I thought that Dalton did that best. His rampage to avenge Stella and Felix in License to Kill is who Bond really is.

    Brosnan shows strong glimpses of it too in Tomorrow Never Dies and The World Is Not Enough in his killing of Dr Kaufmann and Electra in cold blood respectively (dropping Trevelyan in Goldeneye may also count).

    That is the absolute last thing they should do.

    All Hulk movies have been various shades of bad.

    The Captain Jack Sparrow effect: fun as a side character; unbearable as the lead.

    I will agree that Jack Sparrow works best as a side character (Curse Of The Black Pearl) and sucks as a main character

    Another controversial opinion. Spider-Man 3 is decent
