We sometimes have different tastes Adam, it's ok.

I may possibly feel threatened by tall women.

YOU ARE A LITTLE CRAZY MAN

INTIMIDATION IS HALF THE FUN

Looks like a gangster to me.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Friday, 14 October 2005 17:11 (eighteen years ago) link

Why can't you just trust us?

― Lion-O (nordicskilla), Friday, 14 October 2005 17:13 (eighteen years ago) link

Even though Clive Owen looks rougher than Brosnan, I think he would have been perfect.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Friday, 14 October 2005 17:13 (eighteen years ago) link

Who's "us"?

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Friday, 14 October 2005 17:13 (eighteen years ago) link

That's a horrible picture and just waaaayyy reminding me of the Revolver ads that got taken down in my neighbourhood.

However, he's definitely beautiful and suave and lovely there. My goodness, is it hott in here?

― Paranoid Spice (kate), Friday, 14 October 2005 17:14 (eighteen years ago) link

Who's "us"?

Me and anyone else who shares my viewpoint.

― Lion-O (nordicskilla), Friday, 14 October 2005 17:15 (eighteen years ago) link

Oh you guys.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Friday, 14 October 2005 17:21 (eighteen years ago) link

Just get a fucking man bag, Spencer -- its not like anyone takes you seriously now.

― Jonothong Williamsmang (ex machina), Friday, 14 October 2005 17:24 (eighteen years ago) link

just give in and except Daniel fucking Craig, Spencer, it's not like anyone takes you seriously now anyway!

― kyle (akmonday), Friday, 14 October 2005 17:24 (eighteen years ago) link

OH SHIT XPOST

― kyle (akmonday), Friday, 14 October 2005 17:25 (eighteen years ago) link

ruined by me mysteriously typing "except" for "accept" what is wrong with me?

― kyle (akmonday), Friday, 14 October 2005 17:27 (eighteen years ago) link

You're a vegan.

― Lion-O (nordicskilla), Friday, 14 October 2005 17:27 (eighteen years ago) link

Jon I still don't get it and since you won't explain, well...

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Friday, 14 October 2005 17:33 (eighteen years ago) link

He was kind of chubby, had longish blond hair and a pointy nose. Surprise, surprise there. He had a boat, too. Possibly also a girlfriend who was a ballerina? Or am I mixing up several bond villains here?

This is Klaus Maria Brandauer in Never Say Never Again. The girlfriend is Kim Basinger.

Who is still watching new Bond films anyway?

The ones from the 60s,70s, and 80s have a certain nostalgia value..

― Bob Six (bobbysix), Saturday, 15 October 2005 08:42 (eighteen years ago) link

I would have weighed in earlier but my brain was elsewhere. I like Living Daylights and to heck with complaints, as Dalton's Bond is the closest to the book version. The books -- riddled with any number of problems and shall we say 'curious' assumptions, especially in the light of fifty years on -- are somewhere between easygoing escapism and extremely dour pessimism, which actually explains why they work so well, the latter providing a surprisingly effective anchor for the former. Connery Bonds the best overall but I will always have a soft spot for For Your Eyes Only, the first one I ever saw and perhaps not coincedentally the closest Moore's Bond got to the literary version. The new guy being blonde is the biggest big of cognitive dissonance.

(see also Doctor Who FITEING Obi Wan Kenobi in Shallow Grave)

I should point out that in Velvet Goldmine we are now in retrospect rewarded with the sight of Obi-Wan taking Batman's anal cherry.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Saturday, 15 October 2005 12:07 (eighteen years ago) link

Heheh, 'biggest big' -- biggest BIT. Rah.

― Ned Raggett (Ned), Saturday, 15 October 2005 12:08 (eighteen years ago) link

Saw Layer Cake last night, Craig will make a good Bond. He was actually playing an underworld Bond in that one - intelligent, classy, dark but sympathetic.

The Brosnan movies have gotten worse since GoldenEye. The one with Denise Richards was unwatchable and the Halle Berry movie had some special effects that wouldn't have looked good on a movie from 1985.

― Are You Nomar? (miloaukerman), Saturday, 15 October 2005 16:23 (eighteen years ago) link

I still think "underworld" is the key term here. He looks like a villain (seems like a nice guy in interviews though). Again, he should really have been cast as a rogue 00 agent.

― Spencer Chow (spencermfi), Saturday, 15 October 2005 19:38 (eighteen years ago) link

three months pass...

Good luck, Daniel Craig. Do us proud.

― adamrl (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 18 January 2006 21:12 (eighteen years ago) link

He was great in Munich, I think he'll do well as Bond.

― The Brainwasher (Twilight), Wednesday, 18 January 2006 21:16 (eighteen years ago) link

The only downside to this thread - jed doesn't like Bond! >:(

― adamrl (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 18 January 2006 21:17 (eighteen years ago) link

Who's playing Le Chiffre (the Orson Welles part) in this film?

― Dr Morbius (Dr Morbius), Wednesday, 18 January 2006 21:20 (eighteen years ago) link

I think only Craig and Judi Dench have been confirmed.

― adamrl (nordicskilla), Wednesday, 18 January 2006 21:21 (eighteen years ago) link

four weeks pass...

long time since i read the book, but...

― The Man Without Shadow (Enrique), Wednesday, 15 February 2006 14:02 (eighteen years ago) link

I believe that the filming begins next week in the Bahamas. Three or so weeks there, then several months in Prague, then over to Pinewood for a week only sometime in June. Bah.

― Ella Megalast, Wednesday, 15 February 2006 19:27 (eighteen years ago) link

Le Chiffre = Mads Mikkelsen, who i keep confusing with William Fichtner for some reason.

― Yawn (Wintermute), Friday, 17 February 2006 18:04 (eighteen years ago) link

He's Danish!

― Codename: Paul Scholes (nordicskilla), Friday, 17 February 2006 18:08 (eighteen years ago) link

but he looks and acts like William Fichtner!!

― Yawn (Wintermute), Friday, 17 February 2006 18:11 (eighteen years ago) link

William Fichtner!

http://us.movies1.yimg.com/movies.yahoo.com/images/hv/photo/movie_pix/warner_brothers/the_perfect_storm/william_fichtner/storm.jpg

William Fichtner!

It's fun to say!

― kingfish has gene rayburn's mic (kingfish 2.0), Friday, 17 February 2006 18:12 (eighteen years ago) link

he looks a little like daniel craig!

― gear (gear), Friday, 17 February 2006 18:15 (eighteen years ago) link

WILLIAM FICHTER!

― kingfish has gene rayburn's mic (kingfish 2.0), Friday, 17 February 2006 18:21 (eighteen years ago) link

and we have a bond girl, as well.

― Yawn (Wintermute), Friday, 17 February 2006 18:29 (eighteen years ago) link

interesting

― Codename: Paul Scholes (nordicskilla), Friday, 17 February 2006 18:30 (eighteen years ago) link

She any good? I didn't see the Dreamers

― kingfish has gene rayburn's mic (kingfish 2.0), Friday, 17 February 2006 18:33 (eighteen years ago) link

"good"?

― Codename: Paul Scholes (nordicskilla), Friday, 17 February 2006 18:34 (eighteen years ago) link

I liked her in that, but she doesn't strike me as a Bond girl in the traditional sense. Could be interesting though.

― Codename: Paul Scholes (nordicskilla), Friday, 17 February 2006 18:34 (eighteen years ago) link

does she look like william fitchner?

― gear (gear), Friday, 17 February 2006 18:34 (eighteen years ago) link

who doesn't?

― Codename: Paul Scholes (nordicskilla), Friday, 17 February 2006 18:35 (eighteen years ago) link

= weirdest-looking bond cast since From Russia With Love?

― Yawn (Wintermute), Friday, 17 February 2006 18:37 (eighteen years ago) link

chin up, mads, your career's going well

― gear (gear), Friday, 17 February 2006 18:39 (eighteen years ago) link

We must draw strong dividing lines here: bond girls should not look like william fichter, but bond villians and bond sidekicks/contacts* should.

http://www.rosenbaumcreative.com/walken/gallery/pg3/view4.jpg http://www.jamesbond.com/mmpr/media/henchmen/locque/thumb.jpg

I'm thinking like the Robbie Coltrane or Felix Lighter-type bond associates.

― kingfish has gene rayburn's mic (kingfish 2.0), Friday, 17 February 2006 18:41 (eighteen years ago) link

"good"?

"good" as in "entertaining and decent enough actress to be Jill St. John or Denise Richards-level horrid"
