The BJMDDS General Discussion Thread......

I think it's fair to say that Craig's Dud will be out of movie theaters soon.

Do you recall such a hyped film bomb like this SO FAST? Will you see Dream House, Cr-egg's next nightmare, September 30 MP? Bring your walking shoes. You might leave 30 minutes into the film and see something else playing at your multiplex.

[katied]

Dream House? Neine Danke. And anyways, the ads for it practically spell out the plot for you.

Pretty much the same issue Cowboys had. The name says it all, and it wasn't a 'fun' film so why bother. They probably should have re-shot it when audiences reacted to the first teasers by laughing, they thought it was a Action.adventure.comedy. There must be come laughs in it because I don't know how anyone can do Aliens in the Old West with a strait face.

I digress, where is the real Bond news? Daniel talking his fool head off is not news.'I can’t say great enough things about it.'
Yes... we know that, so where is the real news on, oh , I don't know... Casting?

[katied]

I am either going to see The Help or Rise Of The Planet Of The Apes this weekend.


And seriously?No updates of any real substance about Bond 23..just speculation..I have a bad feeling about this.

[bjmdds]

Cancelled for 2012? But maybe the silver lining is a new Bond?

What? Where did you see this?

I saw Craig said he went on a diet to play a cowboy, I'm not really sure why cause cowboys shouldn't look like they are from Ethiopia. I grew up in one of the last few places real cowboys can be found. All of them eat well and look it. Look at the pictures of the old west everyone except Billy the Kid look like they had a full meal.

Yeah, what about that word? Anyone involved in Bond23 know of it? Don't think they do. Apparently they're doing the movie without resorting to it, since you know Sam Mendes is friends with everyone so no need for casting, only friends (I am joking only to a certain extent here, which is just sad.)

[bjmdds]

Ale, all OK in Italy with their economy? They said your country's banks are VITAL to succeed and stay afloat. In regards to Eon, is it possible a lot has been done behind the scenes for Bond 23, such as casting complete, script complete, financing complete, locales picked out, etc? OR, is it quite likely EON is in BIG trouble?

'BJ' Europes economy is bad, the rich Germans are fed up with bailing out the poor countries.
No one can afford to bail out Italy or Spain if they go pear shaped!

Thankfully, the UK's saving grace thru' all this economic mess, is that we didnt join the Euro currency.....otherwise we would be in real danger.

Anyway, the main problem is the US, someone needs to tell Obama to step upto the mark, and reduce the US's $15,000,000,000,000 debt.

We cant afford to let the US crumble as they will take the rest of the Western world down with them.

Meanwhile........in the shadows the Chinese are laughing at the US!

Did you know that the Chinese have enough funds in reserve to buy Italy outright?

[English Agent]

Back to the film world.........

I went to see THE 'APES' film today, and i thought it was really good, different from previous apes films and better for it.

It was thought provoking, had a well developed story, excellent visuals and a clever ending.

Now, isnt that what our favourite franchies Bond needs......i mean 'a well developed story'...........not 'Apes'

[Thunderpussy]

Just came across an Interesting article on how, In these tough economic times, The Old Bond films are to have their Names changed to fit the New austerity drive, so ...............................................................................

Dr No is to become Student Negative
From Russia with Love, Becomes From Skeggy with All Kinds of Sexy
Goldfinger " Silverdigit
Thunderball " whisperedsphere
You Only Live Twice " You Only Live Once
OHMSS " Queenies Hidden Agent
or
Prince williams chinese whispers
Diamonds are Forever " Moissanite Last a Considerably Long time
Live & Let Die, " Live and Let's Let, out Bond flat while he's away.
The man with the golden Gun " The bloke with the big shinney Knife.
The spy who loved me, " The agent who had strong feelings of affection towards Me
Moonraker " Cloudtoucher
For your eyes Only " For your Eye Only ( Fairly obvious that one )
Bad news on the Pussy front sadly big cutbacks Here, No more Pussy Galore.
Octopussy Becomes Monopussy
A view to a Kill " Sight of a Maiming
The living daylights, " The off colour nigh torches
Licence to Kill, " Certificate to annoy

Goldeneye " Browneye
Tomorrow never Dies, " Yesterday never arrived
The world is not enough, " This will have to do
Die another Day, " Euthanasia Postponed
Casino Royale " Bingo! Galore
Quantum of Solace, " Small Comfort

Even Never say Never Again is to be renamed, Just say No

And Bond 23 will not go untouched as, Property Of a Lady is to be changed to,
Repossessed Property of a Generic Female.

If your English and your talking about the UK rioters, then lets hope they get everthing they deserve from the criminal justice system.

Its sad that in this day and age that there are so many deranged mindless thugs around.

[Thunderpussy]

Oh, like many people Don't get Me started on the rioters, I hope they get all they deserve as well. Thugs and Morons.

The liberal democrats and the news media want us to borrow MORE money and give BIGGER unemployment checks to people so they can spend it! These are very sick people who are clueless and MUST be defeated in November 2012 when Cr-egg also will vacate the Bond role, unless he already has due to no film being produced in time.

OMG don't get me started. We need that priapic nutjob we have as a Prime Minister to be removed immediately or we will NEVER face the crisis. Conservative governments have effing ruined this country. I should say EXTREMELY conservative when Berlusconi is mentioned because he's basically a fascist. (and there isn't any good in the word). I'm seriously scared, they (the government, mainly made up of incompetent people) were supposed to approve a new decree to improve the situation and what was revealed of it left everyone saying "ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!" Not nearly enough. Let's just hope this is enough for him to be finally kicked out, as even people within his own coalition are (finally, after FIFTEEN FREAKING YEARS) sick and tired of his antics and of NOTHING being done effectively to help the country's economy. Italian banks are, by paradox, in a far healthier state than US ones. The problem is we have a government with a dude who only thinks about his OWN interest (like finding ways to not go to jail, and I'm not kidding when I say this) and couldn't care less about the country's. And he's surrounded by morons. People have started to see the light way too late... we've been having this dude ruining the country on and off for FIFTEEN years. It's RIDICULOUS. In no other modern democracy these things happen. 15 years with the same guy, only my fellow Italians can be so d**n stupid (Proud to be Italian but really when it comes to certain matters we PROVE we are a population made up of idiots mainly. And proud I have NEVER even remotely considered to vote for Berlusconi. Ever.)

Anyway, let's just get back to Bond because this really makes my mood go into "Can't someone just kill him already?" mode

Not that with the current situation Bond cheers me up But I can AT LEAST think of a bright future. With Henry Cavill as Bond. Ah, how great. You know what BJ, the EON comparison is perfect. Berlusconi is exactly like Barbara Broccoli. SAME type I never realized. I do not know what the heck is going on with Bond 23 as literally NO ONE has news (because NOTHING is happening.) I really am starting to think they're not even doing casting because Sam Mendes will only put family & friends in the movie (I know it's nothing to laugh about). And that's the best-case scenario. I mean seriously? I am not kidding! The best-case scenario is Mendes casting his friends. The alternative is that we're still without ANYONE cast and no auditions and they're supposed to start FILMING in two months!? I've never seen anything like this. EVER.
