10. james bond movies (except the ones with craig)

You don't like the new james bonds? I found Roger Moore to be the worst Bond ever. I can't stand him. Craig was okay for me. Moore was just so tongue-in-cheek and such a pussy.

My favorite bond is still Connery, though. No bullshit. No weepiness. No superpowers. Just bond

my favorite was sean connery, roger moore wasnt my favorite neither, but he was ok, pierce broson was very good aswell. georg lazenby was the worst IMO. i dont like the new ones not because of craig, but because they 1. threw out the bond principals and 2. because they cant hold the camera still for 1 second anymore, and switch angle every 1/10th of a second, sth i generally hate about new action movies. just fucking anoying, noone makes good long shots like in ones upon a time in the west anymore....

 

[TheDude]

I can kinda see where you're coming from. The George one I haven't seen. I assume he wasn't that great. Moore really lets me down. Just kind of annoying to me. Makes a fool of Bond. Looks like a tool.I remember at Berklee me and my bud almost had sum fisticuffs because his FAVORITE bond was Moore and mine was Connery. He thought connery was the worst.

When I think of Bond, I think of Pierce, only because of the games. He was my generation's bond. However, having watched the Connery movies, I gotta love him the most. He's just the epitome of Bond. I'm glad you feel the same way.

The same reasons I like Connery as Bond are the reasons I like Craig as Bond. I will agree with you on the camera angles. But that has a lot more to do with the times we live in, how much money goes into the movies, and how easy it is to do that stuff. I found the recent Bond films to be much cooler and artsy than the stuff with Pierce, tbh. Of course, Pierce will always have that spot in my heart cuz he's the face of Bond for me.

maybe we should have a bond thread

i see what your point with that thats the times we live in, but it really annoys me to the point were i cant enjoy the movie anymore, cant even really se whats going on onscrren anymore. so i cant really look past that "times we live in" thing when i simply dont enjoy the movie. i hate that so much, last new action movie i really enjoyed was django unchained.

another problem i have with new bond movies is the way all the classic bond moments were taken away. they used to have a very fixed plot that would make them a bond movie, now its just another actionmovie IMO.

 

[TheDude]

Yea, I can see that.

 

[Dunial]

My favourite was Pierce Brosnan but i like the new ones with Craig as well... IMO no one was really bad...

and i personally thought the daniel craig james bond movies were better than any of them, they were way more gritty, less polished and they made james bond seem more human and more vulnerable but still badass

Precisely why I like Connery.

 

[miniCyb3r]

Personally, the Craig Bond movies felt a little more realistic.

Personally, the Craig Bond movies felt a little more realistic.

bond and realistic, really ? bond movies with craig are no more realistic then all the others. all bond movies are equaly unrealistic. james bond is a superhero movie, and thats what it should be.

 

[miniCyb3r]

I know, they didn't feel sci-fi like the other ones. Craig felt more human.
