Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Fine by me. Anything to steer away from the crapfest that was Die Another Day (although that one is fun for camp value, it sure as sh*t doesn't look like what a Bond movie should be to me...)- MarcOh, and, BAM! 10,000 posts, bitches!

LongTallJodie 59 Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 That actually looks like it could be one heck of a good Bond flick, but setting aside the actual film - how awesome was the Bond theme with the choir at the end?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Breathmask 555 Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 That was already in the teaser, actually. Sounded alright. For trailer music. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SomeNewGuy 0 Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 The movie looks like it'll be the best Bond in years. I'm not a fan of the choral Bond theme (which I apparently failed to notice in the teaser). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bondo 33 Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 Wow, looks very cool! I like that they didn't shy away from the assassin aspect of Bond."It doesn't bother you, killing those people?""Well I wouldn't be very good at my job if it did."The trailer music sounded very much like MediaVentures, not that I'm complaining.

robthehand 3 Posted September 8, 2006 Author Share Posted September 8, 2006 It looks great! Craig's voice was a bit jarring at first, but I've got used to it now. This and The Prestige are the only films I'm really looking forward to in the next few months.Edit: Marc, you might want to move this topic to this thread.

Morlock 11 Posted September 8, 2006 Share Posted September 8, 2006 You're not looking forward to All The King's Men? or Children of Men? The Science of Sleep? The Last King of Scotland? The Departed? Sunshine? Little Children? Flags of Our Fathers? Lucky You? Babel? A Good Year? F*ck? For Your Consideration? Bobby? Apocalypto? The Good German? Breaking and Entering? The Blood Diamond? The Good Shepherd? Pan's Labyrinth? Perfume? None of the above films hold any interest for you? Morlock- who think this film is looking better, but still a whole lot of bad in it (Principally, too many fight sequences, and a terribley unimpressive villain).

I cringe at the way he seems to be delivering all of bond's dialogue.What are you talking about? His acting appears to be everything I hoped it would be! Did you expect him to cry as he was delivering his lines? He sounds like a very cold assassin...which is what James Bond is! I'm glad they are finally bringing back the serious aspects that were sorely lacking in all of the recent Bonds. I say bring it on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robthehand 3 Posted September 8, 2006 Author Share Posted September 8, 2006 Sophie Marceau (sp?) was, but Brosnan's "acting" just wasn't good enough for it to work IMO.

gkgyver 1,645 Posted September 9, 2006 Share Posted September 9, 2006 The love story defined Bond. It's just a pity that similar love interests that were supposed to "define" Bond existed in the Brosnan era. It might delude the importance of Vesper Lynd.

Frosty 0 Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 I am probably the only person who thought that Timothy Dalton was great as Bond. I think his 2 films are standouts in the series. The Brosnan films were mediocre and cheesy, although Goldeneye was pretty good.Bond needs to get back to where people were the enemy, not huge technological monstrosities. Living Daylights is an example of what I mean. (or even View to a Kill).We need another Bond film where the bad guy isn't revealed until the end, like You Only Live Twice.

He's my second-favourite Bond, after Connery.Bond needs to get back to where people were the enemy, not huge technological monstrosities. Living Daylights is an example of what I mean. (or even View to a Kill).We need another Bond film where the bad guy isn't revealed until the end, like You Only Live Twice. A View to a Kill was great apart from Moore (who was about 10 years too old ), and You Only Live Twice was fun in a silly sort of way - but not the sort of thing I'd want to see made now. I agree a bout The Living Daylights, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
