And if you had, you know, a huge killer robot at your command, yeah, that would just clutter things up; and a lesser person might want that kind of overwhelming force on their side, but you know - where's the challenge in that?
agreed op, goldeneye does indeed suck

from russia with love is the best bond movie

Woody Allen's finest moment.

On Her Majesty's Secret Service, From Russia with Love, Goldfinger, and The Spy Who Loved Me are all great, too.

Live and Let Die and Thunderball are crap, though.

Skyfall was still good if you don't linger on all the plot holes too long. It's also one of the best looking films ever made. Every shot is simply gorgeous.

the living daylights will always be my favorite. the mujahidin owned in that movie (and they had joe don/mitchell as the main villain which was pretty funny in goldeneye when he became the cia guy that replaced felix leiter)

The new Bond movies are all joyless drags that follow the Christopher Nolan philosophy that occasional grandiose speeches about the fragility of life or some other dumb poo poo make the good guy shooting the bad guy any less ridiculous.

it's part of a larger trend of what ought to be dumb popcorn movies taking themselves way too seriously and also being 45 minutes too long. especially applicable to comic book IPs but skyfall showed it's spilling over into other stuff too

I thought I understood international politics pretty well as a high school senior when Casino Royale was released, but it wasn't until my sophomore year and Skyfall that I truly came to grips with the idea that James Bond might not be such a good guy after all.

?Also, I kind of like the one that starts out with 20 minutes of parkour.

Jimmy Bond, Sir James Bond's nephew


In the 1967 Casino Royale Sir James (Niven) is retired, (also celibate, teetotal and vegetarian, into Zen Buddhism.) Until the CIA, MI6 and KGB blow up his house that is ...

imo the 1967 version, untruest to James Bond books/mythology, is more truthful about the Establishment than any Bond movie before or after it.

Star Trek: The Motion Picture is a boring movie
Casino Royale is great because it's about a guy who becomes a government sanctioned killer and starts to lose his goddam mind because of it.

Skyfall is fine once you realize it's an out of continuity side story celebrating Bond's anniversary.

Timothy Dalton movies own bones too.

Connery's best is From Russia With Love.

All the Moore movies are garbage.

Goldeneye is decent and all the other Brosnan movies are poo poo.

Skyfall is the one where weird face man shoots that girl with a sad backstory (with an antique gun for some reason) and Bond just kinda smirks like "w/e I already hosed her," right?
