The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

The theme song is the worst EVER done for a Bond film and that White 'character' reminds me of Edward Scissorhands. GARBAGE, and I am not referring to TWINE.

[stockslivevan]

I was thinking Robert Smith.

Even the fanboys (for the most part) hate the song. If that's a James Bond theme this parrot is alive.

More like Wormtongue from the LOTR movies

I don't think I can take much more of this forum. It always makes me laugh.

[bjmdds]

Laughter is the best medicine so get a big dose of it!

It's just pining for the fjords.

That was Babs Broccoli's doing

Perhaps DC should play Rambo in next installment.

[katied]

Isn't already doing that?

There's going to be Rambo V and even Rambo VI.

I thought we already had a fan art section.
I knew we had sheep.
So is anyone actually excited by the fast approaching QOS?
Obviously many of the members here wont be, but many of the more sane are still Bond fans. Just not Craig fans.
Is there not a twinge of excitement? A glimmer of hope that QOS may not be all that bad?

[stockslivevan]

Shut up, you're from MI6 so of course you're gonna love QOS like a sheep.

[Captain Nash]

Sorry stocks...I forgot.

I'm hoping it'll be better than CR, but I'm not happy about the casting - either of Craggy as Bond or the fact that his leading lady was playing schoolgirl roles as recently as last year (in St. Trinians). Isn't Gemma whatserface about the same age as Lynn-Holly Johnson was when Sir Rog told her to "get your clothes on and I'll buy you an ice cream"? Dunno whose idea it was to cast her opposite a 40-year-old man - probably the same genius who thought Denise Richards would make a convincing nuclear scientist.

[Captain Nash]

To be fair Arterton is not the lead Bond girl. I think you'll find Olga Kurylenko as Camille has the honour. A 29 year old actress.
And although Craig may be 40, is he supposed to be playing a 40 year old?
Is an 11 year age gap between lovers to much?
I can see where you're coming from, but then when has Bond ever been serious enough to mimick life as a whole.
He has always lived in a fantasy world. Even the more serious films such as CR, LTK and FRWL.

There are some fantasies that it's probably better not to indulge

That goes without saying(obviously) but having him act with women who look like they could be his daughter is, well, creepy.And 11 years is a BIG age gap. I dunno, is there a male equivalent of a cougar(a older woman that dates younger man..Demi Moore is a good example).

[stockslivevan]

Christ, the last three Bond actors only had Bond girls who were either 10 years their junior or more, and NOW suddenly it's a BIG gap? I don't think even Roger Moore had a Bond girl that was less than 15 years his junior.
