You seem upset, it's my opinion, get over it.
Belgium is a laughable country, btw it's an opinion not a statement, i take it english is your second language?
@Birdleson, quite. I believe you and I have had recent run-ins with those who aren't making very strong first impressions as members of the forum.
Moonraker what a flick, them old days.
You're blowing this way out of proportion, get over it, people will disagree with you, but i'm a wenis now? You're so tough behind that computer lmao,i certainly would love to see you talk shit to my face.
So you're the internet gestapo or something? I'm a recruit here, although i've been a bond fan for decades, so you should welcome all fellow bond fans with open arms, not throw hissy fits for mere inoffensive comments/opinions of mine.
When you start out acting like a git, don't be surprised when people pause in warming to you. I would invest some dedicated time towards working on that first impression of yours.
I would like to point out you said it was a "fact" that Dalton's Bond films weren't any good, a fact is not an opinion. On the contrary.
You're right however, English is not my first language. It is in fact my third in a total of five, I did learn nevertheless one writes the personal pronoun "I" as well as the word "English" with a capital. Do correct me if I'm wrong.
Anyway, you seem to be convinced I live in a ridiculous country in which case I highly doubt you have much knowledge about my country at all.
May I suggest a less offensive way of communicating with other members?
Thank you.
Indeed. I'd say from his very first scene it was obvious he was a villain.
I actually quite like Max Denbigh, and dare I say, find him a far more interesting Bond villain than Waltz's Blofeld.
Compare Denbigh with some other character who is purportedly just some somewhat quasi unlikeable somebody and not necessarily a traitor. Boris Grishenko when we first meet him for instance—a sleazy, eccentric computer programmer, but no villain—or Miranda Frost—a frigid Mi6 agent who finds Bond laughable, but no villain (although the marketing may have given the game away in that second case). Whereas Denbigh practically steps onto the screen saying "Muahahaha!" and we don't get the SPECTRE connection reveal until the third act. I can just hear Bond's internal dialogue at the moment, perfectly mirroring his line during the Rome car chase: "Of course! Denbigh!" Way ahead of you, buddy. The sneer should have told you something. Only a SPECTRE mole could sneer that pompously.
In hindsight, it would have actually been a novel idea to make Denbigh just some sneering idiot high on himself who actually redeems himself a bit in the end by saving M's neck and make Tanner or Q's cat or whoever the real mole. At least we wouldn't have seen it coming way ahead of all the characters.
Ow !! ....that must have been a kick in the balls for you ,finding that out at time !!
"So, Blofeld isn't responsible for the death of Bond's parents? Phew!"
"But he is Bond foster brother? Ah, damn it...."
Still, is the place for controversial opinions, so Pierce Bronsan is an awesome Bond.
And with that, Goodnight folks!
That's like hurling a Molotov cocktail over your shoulder on the way out the door! Sleep well, but expect the walls to be charred and smoldering when you return.
Waltz as Blofeld was and was meant to be a Jekyll and Hyde twist.
Waltz as the leader of a seedy organization in a film called 'SPECTRE' surely isn't a dead giveaway as to who he is playing.
In fact, I would have much preferred it if they had just gone ahead and made Fienne's M the villain (as was the original plan) or alternatively Tanner a traitor, and then soft reboot the whole thing with B25.
Whatever happens next, I'm hoping for more adrenaline.
Also, it annoys me how we have a ready "made" bond by the end of QoS but he's suddenly an "old dog" by Skyfall.
We never get to see Daniel Craig's bond in his prime.
Each of his four movies feels like a reboot of sorts. I miss the days of standalone movies.
None of this is that controversial these days I guess. Of course, the Mendes era is being revaluated in the wake of spectre.
It's unfortunate that knowing Fleming would allow you to see that the most anti-Fleming thing was about to happen.
You mean Skyfall, where Silva is trying to take down the villainous M and her henchthug Bond keeps popping up and thwarting his mission?
