Terrible is an understatement FBF. I cannot really sit through it when it is on tv.

I bet you would say "Don't get me start with Sofia Coppola's performance."

Sofia Coppola was terrible in GF3..and she is a fair to middling director, too.

Agreed. She was one of many weakest links in GF3.

Probably the only decent thing in GF3 is Andy Garcia, who is a memorable character, and pulls off a decent performance.

Moore was too old when he started, too stiff and too nancy. He wasn't half the Bond Connery was, and he had the stupidest movies to boot--arguably stupider than Die Another Day, except Moonraker, which was inarguably stupider.

If you're going with remakes, I should be Bond:

Brit born, already trained on every small arm in NATO and the former Soviet Bloc, parachutist, experienced with explosives, and I have bona fide acting credentials.

And I look so good in a tux, even men swoon. :lol:

Grace Jones, OTOH has aged rather well. There's a saying.. "black doesn't crack". It's true-I'm half black and am frequently mistaken for being a lot younger than 39! :up: Rog, OTOH looks every bit his age.Back then, and now.
