Bond may be rubbish, but he's stylish rubbish, and - more to the point - he's my kind of stylish rubbish, so I will be buying tickets to Quantum of Solice.

And I went along for all of it, the Aston, the igloo, the Madonna in fencing gear - ALL OF IT I TELL YOU - until the stupid wind-surfing scene. God damn it that was ne plus ultra stupid. And as if it wasn't bad enough...the cliff scene looked like a Mr. Bill skit on SNL. I saw that... and the spell was broken. I nearly walked out of the theater because of that. I rooted for Jinx's death after that scene and hoped Bond wouldn't be long in joining her in the afterlife.

Casino Royale was the best Bond ever if you like to watch a guy play poker for half of a movie.

Casino Royale is one of the best Bond's ever.




By the way- did you all know the title comes from Fleming? It's one of only for Fleming stories left that hadn't been used. And will be the last as the rest are worse.

Maybe it's just nostalgia from childhood, but I still like watching Living Daylights. Maryam D'Abo was hot as **** in this like her sis was in Conan the Destroyer.

Goldeneye was the only really good Brosnan outing. I can only watch a few of the Moore/Connery movies. It is a franchise that is overrated in a big way, but they strike gold often enough to keep it going. Casino Royale was terrific IMO, but some disagree.

I laughed pretty hard when I saw this and my boss came over to see what the fuss was about and he had a good lol too.

Pierce Brosnan was terrible. The new Bond is great, the complete opposite of Brosnan.
