Napoleon Solo and Illya Kuryakin are the coolest names for spies, EVER!

I don't know if I can bring myself to go see this movie. I loved the original actors so much and they were such a big part of my childhood. I don't want to displace those memories with new images or actors.

Coolest names ever. Loved the original as a kid, but this trailer did nothing for me. Found it very underwhelming, when I was expecting to be blown away. This is looking like an easy pass at the moment.

In the book "Life's Lottery" by Kim Newman (which is like a choose your own adventure book for grown ups) the first decision you have to make as a 10 year old is which character do you like best, Napoleon or Illya?

I hate Robert Vaughn but Solo is so cool. It's so hard not to choose Illya. Damn, no wonder my ten year old self was so strange.

I'd heard this was in development for a while, but I had no idea they were going full period piece or that Guy Ritchie was involved. His punchy style makes it pop out and after seeing what he did with 18th Century Sherlock Holmes I think we may have winner with this one too.

I do find it funny that Henry Cavill is teamed up with Armie Hammer, who has long rumored to play Batman before the Lone Ranger flopped and Ben Affleck was picked for the part.

I was like 14 when the original series came out. Don't think I'll like this much after seeing the trailer. Must keep up grouchy old man reputation, eh?
Hey, what's wrong with Robert Vaughn? He was great in the Magnificent Seven. Yeah Illya was cool too. Every one in my gang liked Illya cause he was young and had longish hair.
