                Haha good times, 'six goats' Flash's slogan has it better, 'for seven / glories'
                Cinstead it's Dr. No horroredux, only as a punishment for this horroreviewer for falling prey to Dr. Sleep, it's the Extra Features of the DVD, namely the Audio Commentary with everone and their brother going on and on and on as James Bond cavorts with one lovely after / another.  Unless Cin's heritage disallows him from hearing these affected and pickled English people correctly be©ause his I®ish / up, this was the first Bond film and therefore of certain historical / value.  When oh when will do the Audio Commentary track for Nundercover, innit Cash.
                'Hurly', Mike Leigh titled his movie having to do with the relative cinterest to be found in the comings haha and goings of theatrical / people better, 'Burly'.  It was a good movie, 'it all came down' Cin's Da said it better if unrelatedly, of a long-ago small claims lawsuit, which involved a small forestry oncern to which he had been a party, 'to who was sleeping / with who.'  
                This Extras bit of Dr. No on the other hand, as they tend / to be, is a cinvitation / to verbal diarhea.  Of all of the people involved in this talking, most swear up and down that either 1. author Ian Fleming was the model for his own creation, James Bond, or 2. the director of this film was the model.  Apparently both of these theories involve one or the other of the men - the 'template' the talkers prefer to call this real-life version of 007 - had similar (b) / (s) / (m) adventures to the author and / or director, namely sleeping with every white broad in Jamaica, and a couple of locals to boot, blowing up every free-standing structure on the same, and then foiling and killing the maniacal one-time Treasurer, now rogue, of SPECTRE, aka Special something something Extortion something Revenge something something Criminal something something, aka Dr. No.  Cin has had until of late a fairly busy life, but no one could ever accuse him of being the template for James Bond, and surely Ian Fleming and the director of this film would say / the same, 'if my writers could get women' Krusty the Klown has it better on The Simpsons' episode, 'they wouldn't / be writers.'

                'He was then' one of the Bond girl lovelies says it better of your man Sean Connery, who plays of course James Bond, 'very / handsome', either not noticing the 'then' in her judgement as a back-handed compliment at best, or not / caring.  There's a good five minutes' introduction / run-up to for the appearance of the original Bond girl, Ursula Andress, including Ursula herself, 'all I had to do was stand there, and hold / a shell', it goes on like this for some time until the fappening, this may now be punishment enough.

                Course it's very un-Bond to bad-mouth a bunch of audio commentators who by now must surely be geriatric - 'that's very un-Dude of you,' John Goodmand's Walter says it better to Jeff Bridges' the Dude, aka the Big Lebowski, in the Coen Brothers' movie of the same name, 'Dude' - but when John Derek makes a cameo with his latest teen-age bride Ursula Andress, before / during or after of course his impreseario of a marriage with Bo Derek, it's time / to switch off Tosh the TV set, 'I did time' Michael Williamson's bank-robber / driver character says it better in Michael Mann's Heat, of his crooked manager, 'for what that mother-fucker does / every day.'

                Easier hulk-smashed / than done, innit Tosh, your cousin Tosh the laptop has just advised Cin of his delinquent account with the wireless internet service provider, this despite a payment made this after to / the same, and so out of pure recalcitrance and spite - and of course most important and more alarmingly his total cinability to work in any kind / of silence or sans / distraction - Cin will let the film's Extra feature run / its course, everyone involved in the making of the film was amazing, the best in / the business, it's astounding that geriatrics would be concerned at their age about fluffing up the rest of the cast and crew, until of course one of them dares to shatter the idea that the director is the living embodiment of James Bond his own self, 'he was like' the man says it better of the director on the Extras soundtrack, forgetting himself or having a refreshingly honest moment amongst these Hurly Burly-types, 'a troll, he was like / Napoleon', 'if you've seen as many schizophrenics as I have', Jason Miller's Father Damien Karis says it better in WIlliam Friedkin take on William Peter Blatty's  The Exorcist to Ellen Burstyn's Chris Mcneil, of daughter Regan and the various ©aptain Howdies who are making Regan go coo-coo for coa-coa puffs, particularly the one who claims to be the Devil himself, 'you'll know that that's the same as saying that you're Napoleon / Bonaparte', it's a line that works though one that Cin has yet / to figure out, a line that works though one that Cin has yet / to figure out is all / he gots.

                'He was an honest man' the director, Trevor something something - undoubtedly like all of these limeys a lord or duchess or whatnot - finally makes a post-mortem interview appearance from the grave in this Extras bit, damning your man Sean Connery with faint / praise, 'a little too / honest.'  Course your man Sean Connery is nowhere / to be found - though most of us would show up from a sense of gratitude, to be fair it must be a risk to show up to help out the very people who launched / your career - and truth be told Cin falls on the Roger Moore divide of the perennial Who's the Best James Bond / the Parlor Game.  Moore always seems less why-so-serious than Connery - though Connery of course is the rare actor who says 'to hell with it' when offered the latest Bond role, which let's be honest are parts of entertaining films, but whose third acts are cinevitably / absurd, 'this final scene' the musical director says it better of Dr. No but which can cover 90 % of all the Bond films, 'where Sean and Ursula are floating / on the small boat' - and still went on to make a career of acting other / roles, cincluding the role of Brother William of Baskerville in Jean-Jacques Annaud's immortal take on Umerto Eco's The Name of the Rose, an unjustly unheralded classic as far as this horroreviewer is / cincerned, making entertaininments whose third acts are cinevitably / absurd but still going on on to make a career of other / roles is all / we gots.

                                That and / or, and / or in cinjunction with You Only Live / Twice, innit Electrified JC, or at least we both better / hope so.  Yes Her Majesty's Government, Bond's - and Cin's - employer has not yet done / with either, 'why do Chinese girls taste different' Connery's Bond akses his latest lay better in this film, 'from every other / girl, like Pecking / ducks?'  'My darling' the geisha replies as she must, perhaps these films haven't aged so well / after all, 'I give you / good duck.'  'At least he died happy' the Hong Kong police says it better upon discovering Bond dead, for all intents and purposes from the looks of it, post flagrente-delecto - thus the title and premise of the film, spoiler alert it takes more than a geisha to kill / 007 - 'he would have wanted it / this way.'
               
Surely a better double-entendred ®IP would have served James Bond better than this one, the premise of a false death and funeral at sea - 'when the sea' the Navy captain says it better, it's boiler plate for navy deaths, but a good line, 'shall give up / her dead' - reminds CIn of that faux-funeral that was held for J Mac, innit Cash, when a coffin was constructed for your man and a wake held in the dormroom suite, during which honours and speeches were showered upon the dearly departed, before at 12 midnight the Bee Gees' started singing 'Stayin' Alive', and out / leapt your man J Mac from his coffin, innit Electrified JC, another soul not yet yours / to harvest before giving up / your dead.

                'You forget' James says it better to your wo(man) Miss Moneypenny, after she flings a book of 'instant Japanese' his way following the inevitable James-meets-Q to get dressed-down and then plays grab-ass with Moneypenny, "I took a first in Oriental languages / at Cambridge,' either Connery - as a student off-screen of far less means and pretension than having been firsted (fisted ? -id.) at Oxbridge - is paid enough to swallow having to drop lines like this, or he no longer / cares.

                What it is is that James is 'assupposed to go incognito, after his recent faux-passing away, into the depths of the Japanese triads of the time.  'I'm about as anonymous' Cin said it worse upon his release from the local dungeon some time ago, and upon learning the cinditions / of his release, one of which was of course going cincognito during mandatory attendance at the meetings of the group with the double-barrelled acronym, the first of which / is the aforementioned adjective - 'as Keith / Richards.'

                Haha good times, awful / line, good times and awful / lines is all / we gots, the flip side to awful times and good / lines, ‘good / life’ someone noticed it better, ‘bad / a®t’, rarely do all four cincronize in any kind of way that makes / sense.  As of late and partly as a result of having his morning bus route end at at the 'University' stop and therefore videeing the goofy undergraduates and / or yes the doe-eyed co-eds on their way / to class and haha a better / future - 'they're all wearing' Cin said it better to a colleague after noticing the undergraduates' recent sartorial / choices, 'suits' - Cin has noticed that everone and their asshole is getting an MA, on principle, and Cin may well do / the same, though of course as a result of his various (b) / (s) / (m) and just plain / adventures before during and after the course of hulk-smashing away at this Take This Thang Back to Baltimore flog and horroreview, he already possesses the proverbial 'PhD / in Pain.'

                Thanks for reading this Take This Thang Back to Baltimore flog and horroreview .
