Classic Bond Forum

Why's that?

I don't understand why people in this forum, expect this movie to fail. It'll be anything, but a failure. I don't think any one here thinks it will flop outright the best that could happen from our pov is a lesser bo total but if it doesn't make at least $800 million it will be a flop where the stu...

Can a Bond film not be any more crap than Skyfall?

I personally don't care much about Bond film ratings, especially as a fan of Roger Moore, since his films get a lot of unfair criticism from the Bond snobs and the cool kids. With all the garbage that occurs on these sites, especially IMDb, it's hard to take them seriously. But some people do, and ...

I know it sounds like I'm nitpicking, but after being disappointed with this series for years, I'm not going to easily accept everything the filmmakers do. How about this; you can see Daniel Craig's gun in his right hand, as he's walking across the screen, before he turn's to shoot. The actor's pre...

It won't be long before crap quality head camera copies appear on The Pirate Bay.

For anyone curious the SP gunbarrel is on youtube. Though they've finally got the the look right.... just go and look for yourselves. About 20 seconds is all it takes, and they still can't get it right. And the music is a bland take on the gun barrel theme. They should have just stuck with the gunb...

The series has become "unbond" like, since Pierce Brosnan became 007.

Like Casino Royale and Skyfall was?

The key will be REPEAT viewings, and I think a lot of people will move on to the Hunger Games and SW excitement instead of wanting to watch a waxen porcupine screw up over and over going after his childhood foster brother. The premise is so utterly ridiculous to be written into a Bond script and ma...

Better than Craig's last 3.

I'm guessing that I inspired Count Lippe to create this thread?

I can't possibly warn people more about Spectre. It is PATHETICALLY BAD. And let me make it clear: I did NOT think the first half was good either. At all. The plot is extremely predictable and it is quite insulting to the viewers' intelligence. And the "action" is ridiculous, too. I can see a lot p...

It could be 10 years before we see Daniel Craig's successor on the screen. If it is Cavill, he will be the same age as Brosnan was in GoldenEye.

The dreaded formula was M being a woman (mothering Bond) and the removal of the gunbarrel sequence at the beginning the film.

Henry Cavill has got a greater chance than anyone, to be the next James Bond.

Spectre begins with the gunbarrel sequence, (for the first time, since 2002) where it should be. http://m.digitalspy.co.uk/movies/review/a674869/spectre-review-daniel-craig-embraces-bonds-classic-formula-but-it-doesnt-pack-skyfalls-emotional-punch.html That automatically makes it Daniel Craig's best...

Haha

Does anyone out there still watch VHS?

Serious question
