There are more Brosnan fans than the Craig fanboys like to admit. On youtube there are plenty of comments about how Brosnan WAS Bond, how he was the best Bond ever, how the new GE isn't as good without him, etc.
So? One of the biggest parts of any spy tradecraft is using anything in your environments as a weapon to get a leg up. Improvisation is what keeps agents in the field alive, and Bond utilized it perfectly. And he did mighty fine in hand to hand against Grant too, I might add. The entire fight is really hand to hand combat anyway, and Bond kicks his arse. Plus, Grant was much more dirty. Getting Bond on his knees and holding him at gun point instead of facing him like a real man. And what a bloody idiot Grant is. All Bond did was level the playing field, whereupon he faced Grant hand to hand and like I said, kicked his little arse.
Youtube?
That bastion of tardery and twit? I wouldn't trust their opinion on anything. If they had a brain cell it would die of loneliness.
It will be a cold day in hell that I pay the slightest bit of attention to youtube posters.
>:P
Mod edit: Mind the language.
Oh my god, that is your argument?! That a bunch of YouTubers with nothing better to do than troll and drool on their keyboards said they liked Brosnan? Good luck getting any traction with that one. HAHAHAHAHAHA =))
People give youtube a bad name. The trolls stick to videos like the one about Tulisas sex tape or Battlefield vs COD, they don't really bother with Bond videos.
I'm not sure if you're saying this because they're youtubers or because they're Brosnan fans. Either way, it proves that people like Brosnan, and :O some people like him better than Craig *sarcastic gasp*
=))
Oh yes, they do. I have a couple of youtube Bond videos in my collection box and I once read the comments section. Never again. The posters howl at the moon and have hairy palms.
What was the topic? Oh yeah ... for me - I like both Brosnan and Craig. A lot.
My point is, in the book, Bond knew he would be beaten by Grant if they were to fight hand-to-hand. The film FRWL did it in a slightly different manner. Grant wasn't quite so "mad" in the movie version. The stakes were more evenly matched.
Brosnan, despite being my least favorite Bond remains popular among many fans. I just don't get it. Shytt, when I was in the Army I had pals who thought Linda Ronstadt was the best thing since sliced bread and I never saw it. Maybe that is how it is with Brosnan. I (and a handful of fans) just never got into him.
Even outside Bond?
That being said, I haven't been that crazy about his last few movies. Bag of Bones wasn't that great of a miniseries, and his random romcoms have yet to meet my eyes. Hoping he can get another nice thriller or drama under his belt soon.
As for Bag of Bones, it was a two part miniseries based on Stephen King's novel, so after they released part two, it was done. I, too, never heard how it was received. It was an okay watch for me: not terrible, but not great, either.
Craig, first off, Royale, great film, Craig does very well, second release, QOS, lousy film, Craig is OK, but simply can't replicate his success from his debut appearance
All things considered and what I said previous, Brosnan gets the vote for me, he's simply had more Bond moments and characteristics than Craig, may not be everyone's thinking or philosophy maybe, but that's what I made my judgments on, may be a bit unorthodox maybe but I'm kind of content with it
"she's seasick"
"I do hope so"
Daniel Craig! Best Bond ever! I know I will get slammed for this, but what other Bond not only looks awesome in a tux and do his own stunts? :x
What's CBn?
Oh, don't fear. I for one agree and we are not alone ;) Have you voted yet in the Craig/Dalton thread?

But I wasn't aware of the fact, that its a nest of Brosnan lovers :D
Mind you - Pierc is fighting for the whales and with that has my unlimited respect as a person, just not as Bond.
