he's a proper twat and that goes back all the way through the various incarnations
i wish he'd fall out of a helicopter and onto a spike
apparently book bond was alright but i've never read them

He fell out of a tent shaken not sturd
i made it about halfway through skyfall but just failed to get through the opening sequence of spectre
it's a fukk awful franchise that makes mission impossible look like the godfather
I watched Spectre in 1080p tonight.
Watched it in DVDSCR last week.
I don't know what the critics are banging on about. It was a great action movie. What do folk want from Bond?
Leave the avant garde stuff up to experimental movies and just keep Bond ticking along nice and solid I say.
But get rid of Daniel Craig. He looks like a football hooligan in a tuxedo.
Also I did not go for the duck-tail back-end on the DB10.
do you think i should carry on thenOriginally Posted by Looper
i have the 1080p version and stopped it at the helicopter scene about 9 minutes in and posting here was more appealing than watching any more
i have never really like bond to be honest
tom cruise though...there's a likable action romp hero
the last of the great stars
It is nothing sensational. But I am a Bond fan. I watched the entire series from DrNo to Skyfall last year.
I enjoyed watching Spectre.
But yeah, 007 and Mission Impo look more and more interchangable with each new release.
what are your top 3?Originally Posted by Looper
i might be giving the franchise short shrift
i loved layer cake which is when i first saw daniel craig but i hate him in this...

The boys of the Monty Python troupe long missed their opportunity to create the definite spoof towards the Bond franchise - would've been clearly entertaining when they were at the top of their game...
Too late.
Alas....
Well they are difficult to compare since newer movies are more sophisticated but my personal favourites are
Goldeneye
From Russia with Love
Goldfinger
If you don't like Bond then you probably never will
^
thanks
i shall give them another go
i doubt i've seen them in 20 years
i don't hate bond and i have probably seen most of them but gradually lost interest
did you notice an awful drop off in quality?
I don't think JB is something that grows on you.
You either loved it since you were 8 or it leaves you cold.
I was always a fan but the GF is a huge fan so I kind of got back into it in the past year.
I think when Craig goes the franchise will struggle to replace him. This (Spectre) was a good enough actioner but it's beginning to get a bit stale. Hope Idris Elba tells them to get fucked.
Never really cared for the movies...The first couple were best.
As a kid, I loved the books! Would have been about 13 or so when they first started being published.....
Also a Benny Hill , double entendre, fan as well. I see.GF is a huge fan so I kind of got back into it in the past year.
The seppos had a go at copying Bond, but it didn't work.
Our Man Flint (1966) - IMDb
Ewan McGregor would make a good Bond. Craig was too buff for the role.
I think they have to keep up with the times.
Bond should be a black, disabled, lesbian, muslim chick.
It's the only way they'd get hired these days.
i think i'd watch an idris elba version
the bloke is magnetic
Good job Bond has his Martinis shaken and not stirred then.
It'd play havoc with his swizzle stick.
He is too good an actor to be wasted on a franchise like Bond.Originally Posted by ChiangMai noon
It's ok for mr average to middling talent like Brosnan or Craig. They can return unchanged to their adequate careers. Idris Elba would be wasting his best years marking time.
They are all simplistic, juvenile pap, even in the 60's they seemed ridiculous. The only good thing about them is some of the songs were good. As soon as you've seen all the gadgets they go downhill.
