Classic Bond Forum

Indiana Jones and the last crusade showed a glimpse of young Indiana Jones and his father within the movie. We see him as adventurous. It also showed why he never wants to lose his hat even in dangerous situations because his father gave it to him. It showed some goods characteristics of Indiana ...

I was very disappointed by this movie as it was not a James Bond movie.

1- As I stated in other topics, the reboot crap. I just don't like the fact that I have to watch an whole movie on how James Bond was before. I already have a image of what James Bond is in the movies and by showing how he was ...

What about the scene when Bond lost the first poker game and went outside while Vesper joined him.
Bond to Vesper: "Look at my eyes. You know I can beat this man."
What the hell was that? :shock:
Since when does James Bond needs to justify himself to anyone. The real James Bond in that situation ...

Right now the trend is gritty realism, due to 9/11.

Ironically, if the current troubles continue, that could actually be the catalyst for people seeking to escape into fantasy. Look at the cinema of World War 2 - the longer the war dragged on, the more escapist films became. To me, escapism and ...

Thank you ID!

To answer the question.
The real question is Could EON destroy the James Bond franchise?
What I don't like about the James Bond's movie now is the fact that JB is always in concordance with his head office on his every moves. This started with Brosnan and continue on with Craig. To my ...

i just remember when "Casino Royale" came out, Daniel Craig was pictured on the front of USA Today. I picked it up and showed it to one of my female co-workers, and said,"does this guy look like James Bond to you?"
she replied, "I guess tall, dark and handsome is out, huh?"

There was an Irish ...

Please let's stop the welcoming
I wasn't serious when I said anybody else? It was just a joke reply to Skywalker. Thanks again for welcoming me.

Thanks! Anybody else?

The problem I have with CR is about the reboot crap. Do we need to see how James Bond was before? That's the same problem I have with the Star Wars new trilogy. (EP1,2,3). I remember as a kid how afraid I was of Darth Vader. He had no emotion, a commanding presence and people feared him. That's the ...

Thank you Carl. That's the first time I'm welcomed personally in a forum.
Well appreciated.

Let's hope that he plays a more charming, refined and witty Bond. To me, Daniel Craig didn't play Bond at all in CR. Bond just wasn't there.
