  • It’s high time James Bond came to Australia

    Australian James Bond

    Skyfall is out now (not in Australia)!

    I’m a big Bond fan.

    Favourite Bond film = GoldenEye.

    Favourite Bond actor = Roger Moore.

    I’ll watch a Bond film no matter where it’s set. But I reckon it’s about time 007 visited Australia. I should write something on this exact topic… oh wait, I already did!

    Ha-ha-have a look at this thing I wrote for The Punch: Bond should go down under, and I ain’t talking about ladies.

    All my good gags are over there.

    Kind regards,
    David M. Green
    Actually, I was talking about the ladies.

  • Hollywood Writers’ Strike producing terrible movies… well… more terrible than usual

    Hi, David M. Green here. I’ve just this minute come across some new movies coming soon to theatres. It seems without their precious writers, the studios are returning to the same old cliches again… Have a listen to these trailers by clicking on the posters below… But don’t say I didn’t warn you… they’re appalling!

    Maybe we should just stay at home and read a book this summer…

    Kind regards,
    David M. Green
