Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

But when I last looked over there, they were as bent out of shape over the ATJ rumours as we were over Craig's casting. I'd say that it feels like sweet revenge for them to have to suffer years of a Bond they hate, but of course we all know that if he is announced, they will immediately fall into li...

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

An interesting deep dive into Goldfinger's story structure here: https://dejareviewer.com/2024/03/26/gol ... ames-bond/

I had never heard the word chiasmus before, but it appears to refer to the "ring" structure used by epic poems like Beowulf.

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

It's all based on bookies' odds anyway, which have absolutely no bearing on the actual casting process.

George Lazenby backs ATJ for Bond:

Starting to wonder whether this "antisemitic backlash" isn't a manufactured controversy designed to evoke sympathy.

I prefer Turner as well, but I don't think he wants the job.

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

In regards to ATJ and his religion, Broccoli may be determined to not offend the anti-Israeli folk, especially after the speech someone gave at the Oscars about it, so she very well might rethink her thoughts. But ATJ is British, not Israeli. Saying that being Jewish makes him responsible for the a...

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

The last paragraph sounds great, except the "...referencing Bond's past that people loved, but still incorporating moments to move the films forward." The incessant winks, nods and nudges of past Bond scenes were done to death in Danny's era and were absolute trash, I don't need to see a recreation...

On a lighter note, how many posts does one have to make in order to get their username in bold font? There is membership of the 00 Group with a 00 number and the name in blue.

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

The Daily Mail is not generally considered a reliable news source, particularly in its online iteration, but it has got Bond stories right in the past. It revealed that Naomie Harris's Eve character in Skyfall was going to turn out to be Moneypenny, for example. And welcome to the forum Quantex. Ple...

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

Yep. We accept differing opinions..but if you take it to a level like Nash did,then bye. Not liking Daniel Craig is not a crime. Absolutely. We gave Nash every chance, because we didn't want to be the sort of forum that bans people for having a contrary view. Though I think we would have been withi...

“I disagree with what you have to say but would defend to the death your right to say it-“Voltaire "I disagree with what you say, therefore you have no right to say it" - Nash.

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

Someone there named Colonel_Venus said this about my suggestion that Aidan Turner would be a successful Bond: "He would be perfect for the role of Bond's long lost Sicilian cousin, Giacomo Biondo!"------another genius. Aidan Turner is Italian? I don't think it's going to be him, because he doesn't ...

Re: The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

Wow.. “sh!t show” doesn’t even BEGIN to describe *that* thread over at MI6. Yeah, I think it's probably best if we stop talking about them now, and giving them the clicks. There's a danger that we might end up becoming as obsessed with them as they are with us. Sent from my SM-G986B using Tapatalk

I remember their pet theories like believing Craig was only being praised because people felt sorry for him or some nonsense. Or the best one: “CR is for people who don’t like Bond movies”. I don't remember anybody here ever saying that Craig was being praised because people felt sorry for him. I d...
