I have enjoyed the Star Trek: Insurrection and Nemesis podcasts. I found the analysis interesting and engaging, and was good to listen to them straight after seeing the films. Think those two particular films are quite solid entries in the series, but not classics by any means.
I listened to the pod of The Search for Spock the other day , thought you guys did a great job. Going to rewatch The Voyage Home soon & look forward to listening to the podcast of it!
Have you done any reviews of the Star Trek films, The Voyage Home & The Search for Spock? I thought they were great, and they had a lot going for them.
Yeah i think that’s correct. Also agreed regarding the Diamonds are Forever podcast about it being madcap and a questionable plot. I just believe it’s an abysmal performance by Connery and the female lead is poor.
Yup, with you on that one. I think the writing is mostly to blame but Guy Hamilton should have been able to get better performances so it's on him as well. Connery being so well paid and under-delivering is a big problem of the film as the money would have been better spent on other areas of the production that were lacking.
Not long finished the Tommorow Never Dies Podcast, thought it was interesting & provided a good analysis. Think it’s a film that really loses its way half way through, and it then descends into too much emphasis on action and stunts.
My personal ranking for the Bond Eon production movies are:
1 - From Russia with Love
2 - Dr No
3 - The Spy Who Loved Me
4 - GoldenEye
5 - Thunderball
6 - Goldfinger
7 - For Your Eyes Only
8 - On Her Majesty's Secret Service
9 - Casino Royale
10 - Live and Let Die
11 - Licence to Kill
12 - Moonraker
13 - Spectre
14 - No Time to Die
15 - The World is Not Enough
16 - Quantum of Solace
17 - The Living Daylights
18 - Tomorrow Never Dies
19 - The Man with the Golden Gun
20 - Octopussy
21 - You Only Live Twice
22- Skyfall
23 - A View to a Kill
24 - Die Another Day
25 - Diamonds are Forever
I have attempted to rank the films on their cinematic merits and how I compare them in terms of film making. .

Listened to the Star Trek Generations podcast & Star Trek VI podcast. Thought you guys did a great analysis. Good stuff
I Iove how Kirk says to Spock to conduct himself in modern society “Spock, it is not necessary to always tell the truth“. 🤣
Cheers for the feedback! Glad to hear that. Great films and think The Voyage Home is probably my second or third favourite of the franchise.

Well, we haven't done written reviews yet (although, that sounds like something I should task Fran with) however we have done a podcast on each of the Star Trek films. Here is Star Trek: The Search for Spock one - https://www.kapeesh.online/post/2019/05/01/kapeesh-filmcast-ep-18-captains-log-project-star-trek-3-the-search-for-spock. Enjoy!

Glad you liked the podcast!
Yeah I can agree. As much as I liked the chopper chase with Wai Lin halfway through it becomes a bit manic in the final act.

Well, actually I suppose I'm talking to Kapeesh Online, whoever that's supposed to be.
Again, just sitting in here by myself, talking to myself.
