In terms of plot, yes, but in terms of atmosphere, TMWTGG is very Flemingesque. I can admit that FRWL and OHMSS are closer to Fleming in terms of plot...
Why do so many people dislike KOTCS? I think it's great! The only bad part was the alien thing at the end, that's really it for me.
The aliens AND Shia. Apart from that I think it's good. Not on the same level as the other 3, but good enough.
Anyway, I enjoy Die Another Day. It's no way near anything as good as the series is capable of, but there are worse ways to spend two hours than watching it. Brosnan is good, the PTS is good, and I rather enjoy the instrumental version of the title song (Madonna's machine like performance ruins it in the movie). The Sword fight was fantastic (They should just let Vic Armstrong direct the entire movie(, the Cuba scenes were decent, Rosamund Pike is damn tasty, and of course, the ice chase is a guilty pleasure. It has the cool factor. The cinematography was also good in places.
Everything else leaves a lot to be desired, and there's only three people to blame. Purvis, Wade, and Tamahori. The first two are responsible for some of the worst dialogue ever ("Yo mamma") and the story isn't exactly original, while Tamahori focuses on CGI and flashy editing too much rather than basic story propulsion. A better director might also have gotten a better performance out of Halle Berry, who is.....well, we all know what she is.
It's a weaker Bond film, yeah, but as a general film, there's a lot worse out there. Two years later Tamahori came out with xXx 2, which makes DAD look like Citizen Kane. Ever since I saw xXx 2, I've looked back on DAD with a newfound enthusiasm.
DAF is the worst Bond movie, in my opinion.
Also, the much maligned QoS will one day be looked upon as a watermark moment, whilst DUD will always be considered 133 minutes of unadulterated trash. Like I've said before, this movie should be erased from history... and anyone who defends it or likes it is a person of moderate to severe mental retardation. >:)
Well said!
Let's not compare liking DAD to mental retardation. I hope you are more clever than that.
What would you rather watch @0Brady? Batman and Robin or DAD?
What does that have to do with anything?
Well both could be linked to mental retardation and I know you're especially fond of Batman and Robin ;)
Yes, the lyrics are utter trash, but I find the tune quite catchy for some strange reason.
I must admit...I...do...too (shields himself from inevitable abuse)
Hahaha! Quick! Let's flee to the safe-house for those who partially enjoy the Die Another Day theme song!
I've got it on my ipod :(
The good taste police have been duly notified. You've got 30 seconds to bolt.
James...move your ass!
I believe he did write something, but it was never recorded as far as I know.
