What was his character's name in that film ? I can't remember it, either. Gotta go someplace else to be where everybody knows your name.
Its rubbish, I wouldnt bother if I were you!
A quick look at Rotten Tomatoes shows that the reaction is mainly critics saying "It's a standard adventure flick. 2/5" and audiences saying "IT'S A STANDARD ADVENTURE FLICK! 5/5", which goes to show you that not everything needs to be classy prestige fare that re-invents it's genre to make a buck (or 140 million bucks in the case of Uncharted...).
Having been in a room when Connery entered, he has that presence in person as well. Electric. You don't have to see him to know that he's there.
Yeah, this is a very fair assessment to make I would say.
Yes it was still Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves, as you said. But then with Connery.
I totally believe it. One of the greats.
Boy I dislike that film. Kevin Costner as an unheroic, borderline cowardly Robin Hood. No class, no charisma, no panache. It took the BBC series to find a worse take on the legend.
He's a large ham. Can't say I'm a big fan of the approach, but at least he acted. Although i alwats find it questionable when the villain in a Robin Hood movie has more peesence and charisma than your hero. With the BBC series it was even worse: Richard Armitage was better looking and more manly than Jonas Armstrong! And even taking into account that a Hollywood production can take liberties with history, the amount of inaccuracies in POT is downright embarrassing.
I'd like Bond to go to Moldavia in Bond 26.
Yeah, but maybe something connected with Bond 26 might be announced on James Bond day or even sooner.
No better time for any sort of announcement for the future, that's for sure.
Exactly.
Well, yeah, a helicopter crashes at Westminster Bridge, and only some pöolicemen show up? Okay, there not many people live there, but such a spectacular and noisy crash? But then, Rome by night is also completely silent, and no one is on the road aparttrt fro,m the opera listening old man in his Fiat. And that random garbage sweeper witnessing Bond's landing with the parachute. And that train going into nowhere, with that train stop in the the middle of nowhere. And is this Blofeld's private train station? I mean, I would like to have my private train station in the middle of nowhere. Not that I would need one, but it would be so cool.
"Water Tower" and "The Riddler" are also great. Sure, Giacchino could write a great Bond score.
But did anyone notice the running time? 175 Minutes... That move should have a nice pace...
Who are today's villains in TLD?
A-ha
That was referring to the Mujahidin as freedom fighters against the Soviets in the 80s. Rambo III did it, too.
Seen differently through 21st Century specs.
EON will never villainize governments/countries.
Although they tend to make the American police force look like buffoons. I’m namely looking at you, Guy Hamilton and Tom Mankiewicz.
