Classic Bond Forum

Guys,Pierce said what he had to say about Elba.Personally I don't they are ever gonna really hire him as Bond.He couldn't say "No,because he's black" or sth like that.Don't you know how showbuissnes works?He was asked a question directly and he had to answer in a non-negative way.

This one is definitely underrated. I think Pierce's overall work after GE is underrated, especially those in his post-Bond profile. I think that comes with the fact that he played James Bond.Every actor who plays James Bond will be known mostly for that.That's just the way it is.Connery wanted to g...

This one is definitely underrated.I just like to pretend Richards wasn't in it.Aside from that,Marceau is truly incredible as Electra,Brosnan gives his best performance and Judi Dench is well...Judi Dench.We have some really great dialogue and some truly magnificent scenes.Bond killing Elektra and t...

I remember a time when I was watching Octopussy years ago, my father started razzing me about how Moore's Bond was being a wimp for dispatching the enemies by shooting the tiers on their jeep during the opening sequence. "Brosnan is a much tougher Bond, he would have just shot those guys!" Needless...

So would I Veronica :!: She idolizes and worships her Cr-egg creation. I don't know what she does really.I really can't understand it.I read somewhere that someone from EON came here on the site to see what was written about Craig...I wouldn't be suprised if Babs herself logged in and started to wr...

I read a comment: Quote (approximately anyway): "This guy is a ghost. Nobody knows anything about him; his real name or where he's from..... But we do know he'll be flying to shanghai in 2 days on flight 235 landing at 21.00". I mean come on. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: The Pros. 1. The name. Skyfall is a p...

The whole "reboot" shitty thing wasn't needed.I think the best example is the line of Moonraker-FYEO.. MR is an incredibly campy and silly movie.it doesn't really get sillier than that.MR is silly even by Roger Moore standards.It is incredibly outlandish but the producers just moved on and made an d...

Really not suprised to see Connery winning.But Brosnan as close second?Yes please! :D :D About Craig fans-I've never seen a comment written by pro-Craig that actually seemed to be written by someone older than 12.Seriously,all they do is bash other actors.Moore and Brosnan more precisely.Everyone wh...

My top 4... From Russia With Love-a classic spy movie.An easy winner for me.IMO this is the best Bond movie. GoldenEye-come one,this one saved the franchise.I love everything about it.A great dialogue,villain,henchwoman,great theme song,Judi Dench was great...and Pierce Brosnan.Easily belongs in top...

TWINE scored most points after GoldenEye!Love to see some love for the movie!!

There's no song that is more Bond-like than Thunderball.Alongside this one GoldenEye has to be my favourite.I also love "The World is Not Enough".Goldfinger and Live and Let Die can take 4th and 5th place.
So...
1)Thunderball/GoldenEye
2)The World is Not Enough
3)Goldfinger
4)Live and Let Die

"World domination.Same old dream."
"The world is full with people who think they're Napoleon...or God."

Someone wrote on imdB:What did i learn from Skyfall?Critics can be bought.franchise can be destroyed and we,like sheep are gonna pay for it." True,but I would say franchise was destroyed with Casino Royale. Critics praise Skyfall as the best Bond ever?Why?It's a mix of Batman,Mission Impossible,Home...

Lots of people in the arts have that attitude, be they actors, directors or whatever. It's probably a good thing - it means you've grown and developed. Constantly reliving former glories is a sign of a talent in decline. Well said,but in this article he said that he can't bring himself to watch the...

I think he was just being self-effacing. He'd have looked a bit of a dick if he'd said "I was the best Bond ever and Daniel Craig is crap compared to me", even if the latter is true. Well,of course,he wouldn't say that even if he thought like that.He is also very well-mannered so I don't think he w...

Dornan as Bond?No.With that baby-face and all he really doesn't make a good Christian Grey let alone James Bond..After we had Brosnan,I really can't imagine any other actor as James Bond.And I really don't see any new movie actor who could be one.Not one comes to my mind that has charisma or some e...

British Seagal. Good one right there.

Sorry,misspelled it.

Just to clarify, I have no opinion one way or another on Dornan. I have no intention of seeing Fiddy Sheds, and no idea whether he'd make a good Bond or not. I'm just saying that "too young" isn't the best reason to not give him the job, as it's only a temporary condition, sadly. I understand. Of c...

The idea of this is to create your ideal Bond by taking one characteristic from each of the five or six previous Bond actors. I suspect most people won't want to take anything from Craig, except as a joke, but you can if you want. For example, my ideal Bond would combine: Connery's effortless cool ...
