I'm happy you understand @barryt007 ! I'm sure everyone on here has that same experience too.
TLD was my first cinema Bond. Loved it. Tbh, QoS was the most enjoyable Bond film for me since TLD. CR didn't do it for me as it did for some others around here, although I recognise it as a massive improvment after the Brosnan era.
What does Bond/Mathis say when Bond says:
"half a measure of Kina-"
Does Mathis interrupt and say "Kina Lillet"
Why does he need to interrupt, Bond wasn't stuttering for the name...?
Note he is looking at the barman,Mathis is correcting the barmans pronounciation of it.
These two posts nailing perfectly why I love this Bond so, and many points were simply subconscious for me; thanks guys, for solidifying my appreciation even more.
I'm just reading Goldfinger, and he's sitting in an airport bar going over his recent mission where he murdered a man. I can see DC doing this, deciding that tonight, he's going to get stinking drunk.
There's just something special in his performances that is able to channel Fleming's Bond.
It kind of reminds me of Bond at the beginning of Diamonds Are Forever, consumed by a desire to do nothing but kill Blofeld, no matter what. He gets disrespectful of M and the service because of his chase, using their resources for his own needs on top of it, and taking time away from the office when more important missions are ongoing.
When Bond gets like this, avenging the deaths of his loved ones, he is a force to be reckoned with as he loses sight of the world's problems and views them as subservient to his own.
In LTK, less was more.
They finally got the character in the films and they kill him two films in.
Also, what's with the covername line?
That he used his own name?
Probably the case.
Agree! Dalton definitely had the right idea but he was ahead of his time.
After Brossas one dimensional generic playing, Craigs darker serious tone was more accepting for people! But yeh, Dalton got there first, and after Craigs films, Dalton seems to be getting a bit more respect that he deserves (though not enough, imho!!)
