no time to die movie

 this afternoon i went to see a movie, 'no time to die', the latest james bond film. it had been on my list for a few weeks and it finally worked in my schedule to see it. guess it helped that the bears are playing on monday night, after two straight weeks on being on local TV, which is unusual when they must compete with the packers and vikings for the time slots. the movie was long, more than two hours, but i guess i didn't notice it as it held my attention throughout. notable was the opening scene was kind of long, because it took longer than expected to get to the showing of the title and the theme song. i understand this is the final bond film starring dan craig. the first one i saw at theaters was 'goldeneye', so i am most familiar with pierce brosnan as well as craig in the lead role. i have watched the others on video, except for the two starring tim dalton, and the earlier 'casino royale' from the 1960s. not sure how i feel about this one, as the ending left me stunned. many of the things that bond fans expect are in it, such as the martini. and the car chases. the closing credits do say 'james bond will return'. 

this wasn't the only movie i watched today, as i put in a DVD copy of 'wayne's world'. seemed like a good time to watch it when i had just seen a tribute show to the band queen this week. one thing i noticed that i hadn't before was some of the music in it. not all of it was heavy metal. there were two songs written by chris cornell in it, one performed by soundgarden and the other by temple of the dog. i am aware of how grunge was becoming popular around this time. before this i got some more items into the comedy souvenir binder, i was nearly a month behind on doing so. once the DVD was done i had lunch, and went to target where i was disappointed to find out the maroon 5 CD i wanted wasn't there. so i got the lady gaga and tony bennett disc instead, 'love for sale', and the maroon 5 CD was ordered on amazon. later on i went on a walk and found 75 cents. i am also deciding to put a winter-themed charlie brown bowl into regular use after the hard fiber storage bowls i was using for cereal both cracked. i found it at a fedex office a few years back and hadn't used it much yet, not sure why. because it had a handle and didn't look like a soup or cereal bowl? well i try to buy things only if i plan on using them.
