He’s a good actor, but built like a 12 year old.
ok
Who’s vesper?
They lost me at about 10 minutes into the latest film. Click.
Jeremy Renner.
don’t even notice the product...just the sex or color. so does the product just become subliminal?? and they got us normal white folks by being clever. what is their target??
I haven’t seen a Bond movie since the 1980s.
Better question is... Who cares?
Connery was 32, on Dr. No.
vesper lynd:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vesper_Lynd will get you the overall picture a theoretical love of bond’s life... not always sure she is dead...
first played by ursula andress and last played by Eva Green...
And it was played out even then.
I was really hoping for either Alec Baldwin or Will Smith. Even better, a death cage match to determine the winner.
I would assume they go the Dr.Who route, get some broad or other minority/ double minority (most check marks in that catagory) then KILL it off because stoic masculinity is evil/~s
I would love to see a new Bond series start in the mid-1950s and work its way up to the “Swingin’ ‘60s,” as Fleming’s books did. Setting the series in that period would be a bonanza for creative writing, production design, photography, costuming, you name it. The actors would probably love playing in a “period piece” as well. It would be fun to see the development and return of some of Q’s gadgets (Little Nellie, anyone? The original Aston Martin DB5?), and the evolution of continuing characters like M and Moneypenny. The occasional cameo appearance of a young Queen Elizabeth and / or Prince Phillip would be, as they say, smashing. If handled well, with good stories and kinetic action, I think audiences would really flock to something like this.
I’d love to see them do a real remake of The Wild Wild West. Nor like the Will Smith quazi science fiction movie that was awful, but like the old TV series. An 1880’s old west detective/secret agent drama.
There was an excellent PBS miniseries on Sydney Reilly many years ago. Starring Sam Neill I think. Well worth watching.
I had forgotten about her.
I don’t think her name ever registered with me.
I don’t remember much from the 1967 Casino Royal other then I thought David Niven was a terrible Bond and Ursula Andress’s tits!
Theo only Bond girl names I remember are Honey Ryder & Pussy Galore for obvious reason!
Agree!
You’re right it would be cool!
Unfortunately, too white, too heterosexual & too much testosterone for today’s Hollywerd!
Yes, probably! :)
It is absolutely necessary and it will be done.
