BJMDDS's nickname for Bond 23
What will BJ's nickname for Bond 23 be if Craig comes back again?

If they decide to simply rehash QOS for the next one, how about The Bourne Mimicry Mimicry?

Re: BJMMDS's nickname for Bond 23
BJ will probably have to go for something that doesn't reference Bounre. I have a feeling EON is going to jettison the Bourne influence by Bond 23, given that was one of the major critisisms.
Re: BJMMDS's nickname for Bond 23
I hope so. Plus, I suspect it will seem a little passe in 2011. It'd be like making Moonraker in 1986 or thereabouts.stockslivevan wrote:BJ will probably have to go for something that doesn't reference Bounre.

Yup.Definitely something *not* Bourne related..and as much as people don't want to admit it, there *was* a Bourne influence in QOS,though I don't think it was egregious as it could have been.

Re: BJMDDS's nickname for Bond 23
Your analogy is false.
Moonraker took the idea of space and lasers from star wars.
Bond took the fight-editing of Bourne. And maybe the hairstyle.
Anyways, I'd love for them to make a story as tight as that last Bourne.

To be fair, I thought The Bourne Mimicry was funny the first couple of times I heard it. It just wore thin after a while.Captain Nash wrote:No doubt it will be something witty and brilliant.

Being hunted by the CIA? You sure about that?
And Bond was doing Emo back when his wife got shot.

Re: BJMDDS's nickname for Bond 23
CR was Craig's first Bond film, from an original Fleming work. TBM was their first attempt to mimic Greengrass' masterpiece. IF Eon tries a second film with Damon's character as the muse, it shall then be referred to as......:carl stromberg wrote:What will BJ's nickname for Bond 23 be if Craig comes back again?

QOS was so unmemorable that I find it hard to be sure of anything, but ISTR Felix tipping off Bond that the CIA was after him.wrenchhands wrote:Being hunted by the CIA? You sure about that?
One scene of Lazerbeam woodenly intoning "it's-all-right-it's-quite-all-right-we-have-all-the-time-in-the-world-exterminate-exterminate" and the occasional reference in DAF to Bond's hunt for Blofeld being personal is not quite the same as a whole film's worth of Bond agonizing over the death of Vesper.wrenchhands wrote:And Bond was doing Emo back when his wife got shot.

YOB Twice for short. Though perhaps that would be better for QOS, since that was the second film for Craig's yob "Bond".bjmdds wrote:Coming from you I accept that as a compliment.The Sweeney wrote:I like it, BJ. That's not bad, even for you....So let it be written.....so let it be done.....Bond 23=

Re: BJMDDS's nickname for Bond 23
Craig's first entry in the true Bourne mode was his second film, copying the style of Damon's TBU. His next film, if done, will be his second into that mold. If the first 2 are considered true Bourne mode, then 2 was his limit and a third should not be done. Therefore, it works both ways. Either 2 WAS the limit or 2 WILL be the limit.Kristatos wrote:YOB Twice for short.
