I'll go against the grain - I like the Daniel Craig Bond movies. They're not Bourne trilogy good but they're watchable. 

He’s fifty fifty for me - I’m not a fan on DC as Bond though (he pouts like he’s about to selfie too much) but like Casino Royal and Skyfall.

However Quantum of Bollocks and Spectre were utterly woeful and as the next Bond looks to follow up Spectre I don’t hold any hope for it.

id rather they have a good break from making more after the next film but have a sneaky suspicion they’ll introduce the Politically Correct new (Jane) Bond at the end... it’ll be horrific.

They're 50/50 with the lack of growth or development in the character hindering DC, washed up bond was boring 2 films back, it's also shit and getting shitter that they keep trying to tie them in the old films in a mixed soft reboot style, sky fall has all the nostalgia elements then spectre has Blofield coming back, it doesn't make sense or even work

I'll go against the grain and say the Bourne films aren't that good...

I can't remember if they were convoluted or if I just wasn't interested in whateverstone to not follow it closely enough, the action was cool but the rest of it wasnt, I found them a bit boring

I think it's close to impossible to find a lower quality source of food than Greggs. Bland, greasy, often room temperature, shite is weirdly popular.

This does describe some of their fayre but not the festive bake. That's crack in pastry.

I really like the Bourne movies but I can't tell you how often I've fallen asleep while watching them.  Ironically it was the comparisons with Casino Royale that convinced me to have a proper go at watching and I ended up much preferring them.

They are as well part of this YouTube stunt man thing I watch (I think the vfx guys or something like that) where they get stunt men on to review stunts and fight scenes and I was surprised by how they slated one of the Bourne fights, basically using editing techniques to make it look frantic giving the illusion of a good exciting fight when in reality it was actually really poor

For sure, and Jane will be a trans lesbian, probably ginger too.

Greggs have pastas and salads, soups, wraps, sandwiches bacon rolls and even fruit.

You can eat well at great prices at Greggs.

Here in Leeds, there used to be two major bakery chains - Ainsleys and Thurstons, of which Ainsleys was massively the superior option, Thurstons the cheap and nasty. Thurstons became Greggs (the products remaining identical). Ainsleys went bust and disappeared. I still mourn them.

I don’t doubt you can buy absolute rubbish in Greggs.

But in the same store, you can buy a salad, a bottle of water, fruit juice, fruit, granola, porridge, and on and on.

Incidentally, they also pay above minimum wage and in my experience pay contractors and consultants promptly. 

I find it difficult to knock them.
