The movie thread

He's not my favorite Bond by a long stretch, but the new film looks decent.

 

 

Are you a Shawn Connors fan?

Pierce Brosnan, he's the Bond I grew up watching.

I'm not a big bond fan at all...I think it's partly because I grew up with 3 of them and a big chunk of the time was held up with that idiot dalton and his legal case..6 years between his last and brosnans first

Yeah, he wasn’t too bad

 

If there was a global vote, I reckon Roger Moore, Daniel Craig and Sean Connery would probably be top 3

[Eugene Oppelt]

Every now and then, gotta watch this pure sheer ???? action film.

Released 32 years ago

Incredible

Daniel Craig is one good Bond, hey

 

Interesting plot

He's certainly the best yet. More real. Not as smooth as the others.

I am living in hope to see Idris Elba as Bond..but sigh it seems like that will never happen [emoji17]

This is the year 2019.... They will skip having a black bond and move straight to having a black lesbian disabled bond

A little late to the game here, but I rather enjoyed "The Irishman".

 

Loved that they made it 3hrs and took their time to build on the story and did not rush the scenes.

1. Connery

Craig is way to serious, Bond has never taken himself seriously.

They've developed the 007 character lately with 'Skyfall' onwards revealing his childhood 

Brings context to Craig's performance

[The Bull Shark]

Finally got to see The Joker with my sons, aged 17 and 19.

 

What a damn movie! And what a commentary on our society where the downtrodden are treated worse than garbage. The music was just damn excellent and worked so damn well with the different scenes to set the mood.

 

I must be a weird mofo because I rooted for him right to the end scene.

 

That walking into the door scene; absolutely brilliant.

Its not that, the modern day politically correct world cannot   allow a Roger Moore type character to pomp his way around the world whilst throwing bad guys to the sharks then chirping a classic one liner.

 

Like this

 

Bond: “Who are you?”

Pussy: “My name is Pussy Galore.”

Bond: “I must be dreaming.”

 

or 

Tiger Tanaka: “Rule number two; in Japan, men come first, women come second.”

Bond: “I just might retire here.”

 

or

 

Bond: “I was wrong about you.”

 

Christmas Jones: “Yeah, how so?”

Bond: “I thought Christmas only comes once a year.”

or 

Never Say Never Again

Fatima Blush: “Oh, how reckless of me. I made you all wet.” Bond: “Yes, but my martini is still dry. My name is James.”
