Come on, you can do better than that. Even @Germanlady brings better retorts and she's German... and a woman.
Maybe we all get him wrong and Solace is a bigger fan of DC then we all and is just terribly afraid, something real bad will come out of that remark. Relax...nobody will die.
I know. Sarcasm on my part.
I can, but apparently this is good enough for you and no, she can't.
Less chance of them getting Bond now imho.
A bit of casual sexism and a Jonestown reference all in one post!
Excellent work Sir.
Seconded. I took it as Soderbergh winking at the audience, like introducing Julia Roberts in Ocean's 11 and then introducing Tess Ocean as Julia Roberts in Ocean's 12. Not only did I see it as being self-referential, but that he's introducing Craig in a way most audiences don't think of him.
You know exactly what the end goal is, otherwise you wouldn't fight against it so hard.
In case you're still in the dark the end goal is to view the Craig era, and EON's participation, with some sense of perspective. Glad I could enlighten you.
I know dude ;-). I was just fooling around a bit :-). I mean, calling each other penis has a rather weird....tone to it as well no?
I just think Craig should have a little more respect for the franchise. You would never see brosnan or moore say anything like that. ( but maybe connery??)
No, that's not the end goal. I have a very balanced perspective on the Craig era. What this is about is perpetuating the agenda of those who want him gone, immediately. Hence clinging onto a two year old story for dear life. It's embarrassing.
Last call. Buy me a pint?
If you have a balanced perspective you would see both sides. You position yourself firmly in one camp through your comments, consistently throwing yourself into the firing line on EON's behalf. The fact that you view any criticism of the current team as some kind of conspiracy is proof enough that you aren't a neutral party.
This is about the wrist cutter story still being mentioned with nearly every article about him and Bond. It's even there today in the Purity articles that are doing the rounds.
I don't think anyone cares what we think. We're not important. It's the fact that the linkage is still there with nearly every mention of him and the film that should be troubling. That's what won't change because they allowed that story to take on a life of its own when a decent PR team would have firmly nipped it in the bud 2 years ago.
I've torn QoS a new one on many occasions and I've put the boot in on SF and SP on many occasions too. My defence of EON stems solely from personal experience of how difficult production can be. But I don't and never have jumped to their defence at every opportunity. They don't always get it right and they've made some big mistakes, but I'm a Bond fan and ultimately optimistic. I don't hold grudges for years on end and continue to perpetuate them ad Infinitum.
The only perspective needed here is for people like yourself to remember when you start waxing lyrical about EON's shortcomings, it's just that, your perspective. Not fact. A perspective devoid of experience or real knowledge.
A bit rich banging on about a lack of neutrality from the bloke who suffers from Turner diarrhoea.
Well, he never claimed to be neutral when it came to Turner, BUT he also never got insulting to those who objected or even ridiculed him.
Yes, you've criticised QoS, SF and SP, but you've always made sure to pre-empt it with a little disclaimer absolving EON and Craig of any responsibility, making them little more than victims of circumstance, passive participants in their own productions. When it comes to CR, you're the first to lay praise at EON's feet (and you don't mince words about it), but when it comes to the mistakes they've made you start playing this weird obfuscation game.
I think it's called emotional response. It's what defines us humans from you robots.
Was this posted? Seems to confirm Craig is back.
I don't usually trust one unnamed source, but when one has so many basically alluding to the same thing (including a named Exec this time around), then it's pretty much confirmed.
So the real interest will be in the distributor and hopefully director announcements when they finally are made.
