Lol yes ..bad hair days for both.. topped only by Connery in DAF :D
Certainly that applies to a small amount of Goldeneye and completely to the other three Broz Bonds.
I like LTK but it disappoints in comparison to the "old school" films. I once did a double bill of OHMSS and LTK. The latter was disappointing. It's too "grim" and parts do feel quite generic.
The action in GE is fantastic, some of the best of the series. I agree about the score but can tolerate that better than the disco stuff in TSWLM.
Ugh.
I agree. I find the action in GE exciting. Its the others where it feels "generic".
TND has far too many action scenes.
I just thought he was just some poor bystander all these years lol.
The scene straight afterwards when he walks round the statue park is very good too.
It's funny, watching DAD then going back to GE feels like two films from completely different universes. I also think I prefer Broz in GE too now despite his uncomfortable demeanour in places. He's too "daddy-o" in DAD I think.
As for Dalton I feel he should have got a third film but I still maintain he's better suited to television.
Right! What a complete regression. I do like the first two acts in both TND and TWINE, even though the action is really pedestrian at times. Those films suffer from having two directors not being good with action and having the stunt people handle that stuff, which is always a debacle when the director is not directing that stuff.
Despite the lack of energy to the action sequences, the story works okay enough until the Halo dive…something about the story after that just drops off the table. For me.
The climax is abysmal, but it is sadly not unusual for Bond films to lose the plot in the final act.
I agree that Brosnan is marginally better in TND however and the movie suits his style better. I also feel that it is the supporting cast that really take GE to another level compared to TND.
I think GE was the movie that had to be made for its time. In a way, it was similar to SF in that both came after brave efforts (in LTK & QoS) that were a little too risque for some fans and the public generally. Therefore in both cases, EON had to bring it back if you will, cliches and all.
I also agree that the finale to GE is magnificent. I think it's still the best one of the Craig/Brosnan era (great set design, amazing fight, big scale without bs CGI etc.)
Ugh.
