    @thelivingroyale, I wish TWINE was actually as deep as you proclaim, but I've yet to see it. I definitely need to revisit the Brosnan era, but the films haven't given me any good reason to return. It's missed opportunity after missed opportunity post Goldeneye, where the writers never had the courage to do anything interesting or deep with the character, and any great ideas that came along were trampled on by some stupid turn in the plot or moment of levity. Yuck...

    But they did, in TWINE. I won't go into detail now but I wrote a big post about Bond's character in the film in the Brosnan appreciation thread.

    And while most of the Brosnan films might not be very deep, the Connery and Moore films never did anything deep or interesting with the character either. I don't think every film needs to.

    I definitely think the Connery films did, chiefly DN, FRWL and TB. The brilliance of Sean's subtle performances are great for character studies. I love watching him play around with the character of Bond when checking his rooms for bugs, eyeing up a room for threats, or darting his eyes in a shootout to watch for enemies. All the best parts of Sean's performances are very indirect, but offer a lot of instances to interpret the character of Bond and why he does what he does, which is very interesting to me. Anyway, I won't fill up this thread any longer with this off-topic discussion.

    Dear regular members,
    A few 'new' members are active in these games with suspiciously similar IP addresses. There's a good chance duplicate accounts were made to boost post counts or to simply - and quite childishly - favour personal choices in these games.
    Please stay on the lookout.
    Also, no less than three of these accounts inspire flashbacks to former trolls.
    You know where to find the flag button. :-)
    Thanks!

    Ok, I have now edited my profile a bit. Is there anything more I can do to make sure I don't "look suspicious" or "inspire flashbacks to former trolls"?

    I'd never intended to make like a "major", "splashy", "official" introduction of myself. I just wanted to join in on this game for the fun of it. Am I obliged to do it?

    Just to clarify: My real passions in life are music and FCBarcelona , not which film wins this trivial game...

    (But I'll probably continue to vote down the Brosnan films, including Goldeneye, if that's what offended you or "raised suspicions"...)

    A) My post was in response to PM's from several members. Honestly, I don't care what happens to the list between two posts of mine, other than the correct math.

    B) I wouldn't make official statements if it were for personal gain. Pretty childish that would be.

    C) Mind the plural form please. We have a few members, not one, to worry about. If I wanted to target you specifically, I'm sure I would have sent you a PM by now.
