Good to see some intelligent generally thought out Bond related comments being posted here. Not what I'd normally expect to see on an internet chat board. I think MeerkatHack's concept of a Bond set in the 1960's is an excellent one and i agree totally that, since Goldeneye, Dame Judy's M has been transformed from balls of steel toughie to simpering damsel in need of rescuing. A real waste.
Not sure i'd agree about Goldeneye though. To my mind Bartel has it right on that one. Best Bronsnan film, but he has been by far the worst Bond ever. I always felt that he was never able to decide whether he was trying to impersonate Connery or Moore (yes, Moore was too old to be convincing in action sequences by the end, but he knew that and always played to the ridiculous nature of his situation). As a result Brosnan was never genuinely tough or genuinely funny, but always genuinely absent of charisma. Lazenby and Dalton also lacked the same level on screen presence as Connery or Moore, however they played the roles with conviction and, aside from Lazenby's poorly delivered quips, gave Bond a human feel and vulnerability that was more in keeping with the books. Pre-Casino Royale my personal opinion is that the last decent Bond was The Living Daylights. Whether it would have seemed as good if it had a David Arnold rather than John Barry score I can't say.
Anyway, that's all beside the point. Anything less than 2 hours seems too short for a decent Bond in my opinion. After all, there needs to be crammed in a dozen different exotic locations plus a ridiculously convoluted plot that most viewers will have lost by half-way. Plus with all of the product placement we know this one is going to have, how can there be time for any story or action? |
