Classic Bond Forum

Happy Fourth of July! I come bearing goodies. Now I don't know how many of you are familiar with Enty (which stands for Entertainment lawyer). He is a BIG authority in gossip (I know gossip isn't anything that goes with authority, but please bear with me :lol: :lol: ). He always knows EVERYTHING bef...

And yeah Ale I am of opinion that they go inspite of him because there is James Bond in the title. He is not a leading man material let's face it. It's actually hilarious how Babs goes on how he is "a unique mix of acting skills.and movie star charisma"... :lol: that's an ACTUAL quote. That's a lev...

You don't have to be afraid, FBF. A traditional Bond is not coming back. The Craig fans themselves kept saying the public view on Bond has changed, so expect the alikes of Wade Barrett get an election of the next 007 casting. They want the muscular wrestlers with emotional traumas to take on the ro...

More Craig for the foreseeable future? I think i just lost the will to live _.// @BJ:I'm not going to ComiCon but may go to a meetup nearby with some online friends. :martini: :martini: :martini: Did I miss something? Was his contract extended again? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk It wasn't. An...

re: Eon trying to stop The Man From UNCLE....that refers to the original television show. Ian Fleming was involved with the development of the show from October 1962 until June 1963. He was never going to do the heavy lifting, but NBC was willing to air the series without a pilot because of Fleming...

For those interested in The Man From UNCLE... I put up one of the first of the UNCLE fan websites, debuting on Dec. 1, 1996. I've had to move it around a couple of times. Here's the home page. https://uncleepisodeguide.wordpress.com/ Here's one section of the site, which details the things that UNC...

On the subject of Rupert Friend: if we're going down that road, then I think his buddy Tom Mison would be a better choice: https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/236x/d1/bb/5d/d1bb5d1d96ef2c4fd3096b73460cc785.jpg He's got a Dalton-like quality to his appearance. Right now, he's starring in the hit sh...

Yeah, if seen Connery referee to as "fat ass" on several occasions in the "official" bond fan sites its quite bizarre to read! I mean THE James Bond refered to in such a derogatory way on a fan site of all places! Connery often gets referred to as being "fat" in Diamonds Are Forever , and I've also...

"We wanted Craig from the beginning" Babs talks about "striking screen presence and charisma"of Craig... :lol: he is also a combination of "movie star and great actor"...a MOVIE STAR?Where was he again?And how with Skyfall they went back to "more character drive stories and less gadgets" of Connery...

2005 babs choice: CRAIG wilsons choice: MCMAHON campbells choice: CAVILL :007: I thought the shortlist was Craig, Cavill and Sam Worthington. Yeah, but MCMAHON was wilsons original choice... Worthington was never in the shortlist and he admitted to lying about it, too. The only two who did the fina...

Don't forget about the physical description of Bond In Casino Royale . Honestly EON got most of the casting wrong before the script comes in. Oh definitely. We've discussed Bond features before as described in CR and they certainly have nothing to do with Daniel Craig or anyone like him. Casting wa...

LOL. Daltonite Toothpaste, The WHO? Pam Bouvier and Ale, is me. As you can see from my username Alessandra (and the short is Ale) and Pam Bouvier under it. That's the honor I have had on this great forum, I've been named after my favorite Bond girl together with Honey Ryder. I do ignore everything t...

I am waiting for Eon to choose a female lead villain in their next film. I think Broccoli wants to further emasculate 'her' Bond creation at the hands of an evil woman. Maybe the green veggy can be cast as Rosa Klebb for the next film as a cameo? We already had female villain-Elektra King. But that...

Don't let our Ms. Bouvier, aka Ale, see you write that :!: :lol: She wants WB to lock him in for the next 15 years as Bond :!: I ignore any and everything that's anti Cavill. Makes no sense to me so I don't waste time addressing it. And I'm certainly not the only one seeing how Cavill is absolutely...

Spy, The Kingsmen, The Man From Uncle, and MI films all show that you can have FUN watching that genre vs. Broccoli's trash. I believe they're a conscious reaction to the pretentiousness of the rebooted Bond franchise. Certainly Kingsman was pretty upfront about it. You are right, Kris. I think tha...
