A new QOS nickname for BJMDDS
As you know, some people have been calling for a replacement for BJMDDS's The Bourne Mimicry gag.
Any suggestions?
Any suggestions?
Bring back Bond!
Re: A new QOS nickname for BJMMDs
I've been calling it Layer Cake 3 for a while now, so I suppose that needs replacing too.

Eh,I'm fine with The Bourne Mimicry.There's only one or two people here who are annoyed by it(I know I'm not..)Hey, if the description of QOS' plot is anything to go by,it's apt.

If we want a description of the plot, how about Water Load of Rubbish?katied wrote:Hey, if the description of QOS' plot is anything to go by,it's apt.

I may not like the Bourne films but I definitely think that Forster is "borrowing" plot elements from the Bourne movies.I don't think it has anything to do with other Bourne crew working on QOS.He's just not very original, is all.

Like I said,I don't have a problem with calling it The Bourne Mimicry because that describes it perfectly

There's a small minority here who don't like the "Bourne Mimicry" nickname.Since the vast majority here don't mind it,why change it or look for some other name,I say.

Re: A new QOS nickname for BJMDDS
Actually I like Octopussy and Living Daylights. To me Octopussy is like Moonraker or Thunderball, I don't know what they mean but they sound cool. Besides in America Octopussy could be a bit misunderstood. Which made it cool

Re: A new QOS nickname for BJMDDS
Be it "The Bourne Mimicry", or the "Quantum of Sole-Less", it will describe Craig's portrayal as a Bond with no substance,and no personality.
