You really need to read the original graphic novels. I don't know how they managed to stay fairly faithful but at the same time sap all of the entertainment out of those stories.

 I will. I'm not really into comics (or graphic novels), but I keep hearing great things about them, so I'm interested in checking them out.

Hard to believe the Cinematographer of Raiders and the director of Empire Strikes Back produced this turkey.

You mean Irvin Kershner? The guy everyone says has never made a remarkable movie outside of TESB?

Yeah, I'm not finding that hard to believe.

 Oh c'mon guys, RoboCop 2 ain't that bad. I found it enjoyable, at least.

I do prefer Octopussy over Never Say Never Again, although not by a whole lot. They're both bad, but at least Octopussy had the familiar cast and music (NSNA's score is horrendous). The first half hour of Octopussy is actually pretty solid, I thought, before it turns into a big slog. Although I do prefer seeing Bond disguised as a clown than seeing him play a videogame with the villain.
