IMO: Brosnan is what brought back Bond

Posted by MDH (aka MDH) Nov 12 '08, 12:23

I guess I can say that the high budget explosions and the videogame haha brought back Bond. But I don't understand the hate. He was slick, a good action star and enjoyable. Without him the franchise would have died and Daniel Craig would'nt have had a chance. While I like Craig, he still has to grow on me. But I'm liking it so far.

Responses:

Just because he helped bring the franchise back doesn't mean he was all that good - Mr. Havens Nov 12, 12:27 3

  - I second this motion -- nm - Pippy Nov 12, 12:32 1
    - But you just want it for another butt scene, right? :) -- nm - Beryllium Nov 12, 12:34
Thus far, Craig has lessened Bond for me, making him more of a feckless thug. - David Nov 12, 12:24 10

  - I don't know that I agree with you there. I've only read the Ian Fleming books, and while he is a little reckless and can throw a beating, he's not - emoticripple Nov 12, 12:40
  - If I want a Bond book, I'll read it.. (NM) - Marlowe Nov 12, 12:35
  - That is what I have been saying, but ST fails to understand. - Rorschach: 03/06/09 Nov 12, 12:31
  - See, I disagree. I think that the best implementation of the Bond of the books was Timothy Dalton. - David Nov 12, 12:27 3
    - I liked the Dalton rendition of Bond. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 12, 12:27 2
      - The only good Dalton is Amy. The Bond sucked - oblique Nov 12, 12:29 1
