Bond Thread

What are your biggest hopes and fears for No Time To Die? What did you think of the theme song? What direction do you want the franchise to head in?

Reboot fucking when. Sick of these Craig movies.

It's his last movie, isn't it?

Sam Mendes utterly destroyed the Craig era. Skyfall and Specter completely went against everything established in CR and QOS, turning Bond into Batman by making him the center of a vast conspiracy of supercriminals. Blofeld being Bond's adoptive brother was more unforgivable than Bond going into space or surfing a tsunami.
The only positive thing I have to say about NTTD is that at least Mendes and Newman aren't returning, though the rest of the cast from their films are. I have no interest in another dreary- 3-hour slog about Bond overcoming past demons and dealing with dark secrets, like in some kind of Mexican soap opera.
I've been a Bond fan since seeing GE in theaters and this is the least excited I've ever been about a Bond movie. Nothing about NTTD grabs me and I'm not looking forward to any particular aspect of it, least of all another annoying female Bond equal who upstages him in every action scene, as if Wai Lin and Jinx weren't bad enough.

This. They don't feel like Bond films anymore. I think it's telling that everyone I know who likes Craig's Bond hated the earlier films with a passion and an air of superiority

They've said that three times now.
Casino Royale was the only really good film of the last 4. I personally think Skyfall is better than QOS though that doesn't make it great. Spectre was utter shit.

I have 0 expectations for No time to die. I just want a new bond.

It took them 10 years and 4 movies to reboot the series and then entirely destroy it. Bond was meant to return to his roots as a rough-around-the-edges spy, but we're left with a humorless, sexless terminator. SPECTRE is controlled by his evil step-brother, echoing its own parody films in Austin Powers that it's unbelievable someone seriously thought that it was a good idea. I have zero interest in the new movie.

I can only hope the new actor to play Bond has a personality. Craig has been a poor fit for 007, right down to his undersized suits.

I kind of liked Spectre. It wasn't great but it has that fun I'd been missing in QoS and Skyfall

The trouble with Spectre is that nothing happens. This is definitely a flaw in a Bond movie.

Craig really has seen some shit.

Doesn't Bond blow up Blofeld's command center that was going to do some evil stuff of something? I think I need to go back and watch it.

He had this in his first movie.

This, my biggest hope for the movie is that with the next Bond they get back to classic Bond adventures. No grumpy Bond moping about losing a hand of poker, no marvel-style cinematic universe building, no fucking Bourne shaky-cam, just good old-fashioned superspy shenanigans.

Those two women were way too similar. You never knew which one was which.

Yeah the problem is that I literally don't remember anything that happened in Spectre. The movie got almost totally upstaged by Kingsman and The Man from U.N.C.L.E., as those were more fun and had more interesting setups and villains. Only thing I remember from Spectre is the opening set piece and them skiing in Austria or something

These movies seem to be following the "every other one is good" pattern, so maybe there's hope for No Time To Die. Not a huge fan of the theme song but it's ok.

>Casino Royale: good, great theme song
>QoS: shit, lame theme song
>Skyfall: pretty good, great theme song
>Spectre: shit, lame theme song
>No Time To Die: ?, meh theme song

Best Bond director?
My vote goes to John Glen
>For Your Eyes Only
>Octopussy
>A View To A Kill
>The Living Daylights
>License to Kill

>So...you came back to have No Time to Die
Turned off the trailer there

My only hope is this movie will truly be the last in Craig's era. Its a travesty this irish goblin getting more movies than Dalton and even Brosnan.

No, CR and QOS were setting up the conspiracy, Sam Mendes fucked it up by trying to blend gimmickry back into Bond instead of continuing with the hard, cold modernism of Casino Royale.
Basically all you little faggots crying about the lack of gimmickry like in the garbage days of Roger Moore fucked everything up. Gas yourselves.

Bond sucked dick until Casino Royale and Quantum of Solace. You manchildren had to fuck everything up though.

I've forgotten the last couple entirely, was Blofeld really his brother?

my hope is that the movie flops (or does as badly as a Bond movie can) and everyone shits on it causing Craig to throw one of his hissy fits and fuck off forever and his time as Bond is never spoken of again

I thought this flop already came out

they pushed it back because the plot is about the fag villain releasing a virus on the general populace

>I don't like Bond movies
This is the kind of fag the Craig movies brought to the franchise.

>What are your biggest hopes
That Fukunaga pulls off a miracle since everything he's done prior is decent.
>and fears
That the film will be like Skyfall and idiots will claim it's great despite being shit.
That it will be secret kino but not normie friendly so the opposite will happen

user, one was hispanic with longer hair, the other was white with very short hair. I can understand having face blindness but one of them is literally brown and the other is not.

>Sam Mendes utterly destroyed the Craig era
This. Goddamn I was so mad at him, I hate that I liked his ww1 film

Are you retarded? I flat out said I liked CR and QOS and hated the Mendes movies. Go back to school and take remedial English.
.Yes, after Bond's parents died, Blofeld's family took him in, and since Blofeld's father preferred Bond to him, he decided to kill them and spend his life creating a giant terrorist agency just to kill Bond. It's the most utterly retarded thing in any Bond movie.

based smug face Dalton poster.

Surely it will leak before then, right?

He had the best run for sure. 80s kino. 3/5 were great. The other 2 were still middle of the road.

>SOUL

I hope Criag gets the Brosnan treatment and only get remembered for his last shitty film.

CR and QOS set up the big conspiracy you said you hated, you drooling stupid fuck.

Kino:

Connery
Dalton
Craig

Circus act

Moore
Brosnan

Charlatan

Lazenby

reminder Barbara Broccoli has been in charge of the franchise for 9 movies and only 2 of them have been good
