Austin Powers influence? i hope he is talking about the influence that Bond had about Powers not vice versa
i hope he have the same idea of a classic Bond film as us
PS: Mods, can this please be moved to Bond 23?
For me, a good, classic Bond film would still be dark with the gritty realism we have been getting in the Craig era but with Money Penny and Boothroyd who are introduced in a natural way that doesn't resort to cheese. Or they should just be there like with Tanner in QOS. Also, a surreal, exotic fortress belonging to the villain that isn't blown up 30 seconds after first seeing it. I would like the quartermaster to just look over guns with Bond at the firing range in the bowels of the SIS. It would have good dialogue like in QOS (one of the few things I liked about this film) and natural humour that is in the right place, once again like in QOS. Of course it would atleast have the same action to dialogue ratio of OHMSS - no more action than what is in this film accompanied with the nice character movement. Perfectly realistic for today’s audiences. Pigs might fly too. :)
You know something else they should do is give M back her old office. You know, how it appears in the Brosnan instalments and CR. That white sanitary decor in QOS is awful.
Little things they should do is have Bond scuba diving, having dinner with the villain, talking to May in his flat, playing Baccarat off the job and introduce some dialogue that briefly refers to Bond's intolerance for shoe laces. It's little things like this that add to Bond's personality.
On the 25th of this month I achieved my goal of going one year without watching a single Bond film. Now, I'm going to watch them all in reverse chronological order this time. I'll probably do the same with the Rocky films.
I know that line doesn't come after but it's hilarious. I guess some kids could work in Bond films provided they have less than a minute worth of screentime and have funny diologue.
@DoubleOhhSeven Child labour in a Bond film. hmm, no. He should take up smoking first.
Anyway, you can hardly expect Craig to tell his audience the next film is going to be she*t, now can you. Allthough I am hopefull thanks to that ' classic' remark.
Casino Royale was quite good, I enjoyed it, nice intro music, even if the teaser was about 15 seconds long
but a blonde Bond who looked like he should be working for WWE, not playing some super spy and jumping from tall buildings and having his testicles abused by some Danish card player, I have to stop..
but still a fun movie, I'll give it that
Granted, people that usually say that end up doing the exact opposite. Come October or November of 2012 next year, they will probably be in line at some point to see Bond 23.
