Will Villeneuve finally give us a second Dalton era? I've been waiting so long for another movie that balances drama, fun and intrigue the way TLD did.

After extensive research, I've discovered that the 2 groups responsible for ruining the Bond franchise are Daltonfags and normies who loved Skyfall. If all those people fucked off forever, the franchise could return to kino. That is all.

living daylights had the shittiest villain license to kill was fucking great though
>refused to take the role for bond even though at that point it meant immense international fame because at the time he was 22 and was a bondfag and thought he wouldnt do it justice. >kept turning down offers for 15 years until he was 35+ and to prepare for the role he read all the books and was a big bookfag so he also turned down an offer to do octopussy because he thought the script was too campy
what a fucking based beyond belief lad

>>212279081 (OP) Like >>212279235 says I have no faith and fully expect a "Bond Universe" of media to arrive soon.
>>212280065 So? A Bond film dont always need a great villain, From Russia With Love and Spy Who Loved me also have shitty villains while being kino TLD had best car and best Bond girl, LTK had a great villain and one of the best TLD and LTK both have the best action scenes of the series

>>212280259 Moneypenny will get a spinoff Prime series where we get to see her be a badass POC gurlboss field agent who's a better shot than Bond, more successful, more decorated. And Felix will also be a black woman and they'll do a CIA spinoff series about Felix too, and we'll see black lady Felix and the CIA conflict with an over the top Trump analogue in the white house.

>>212279235 >>212280259 you are 50 years out of the loop since bond has been woke since the 70s where they hired the black stuntsmen association when it wasn't the norm around the time. and doubly out of the loop since judi dench's M has been the template for bond vs women in leadership, and girlboss bond girls have been a thing since brosnan's films as well.
Fuck Dalton. We’re never going to get definitive Connory Bond ever again. Total psychopath, kills people in cold blood and makes smart ass cracks about it. A sexual predator that will fuck women whether want it or not and then use them as a human shield. “She’s dead on her feet”
>>212280065 Whitaker sucks, but both Koskov and Necros are actually pretty good. Koskov is so slimey that you can't wait to see him get his comupance and Necros is one of the most effective henchmen in the entire series. Hell, he basically gets his own action sequence when he assaults the MI6 safe house.
>>212280644 you realize thats every bond besides craig. and that the women are the ones who betray him.

>>212280644 About half of Connery's movies are borderline unwatchable and goofy dreck. Plus his toupet is pretty distracting in the high definition releases. People go on about Moore being too zany, but Moore didn't make Diamonds are Forever now, did he?
>>212280782 TLD and LK were bogged down by political correctness and the whole AIDs epidemic. Bond hardly fucks anyone in both movies. He’s not a womanizer. TLD is better then License To Kill which is some DARE say no to drugs meets Scarface meets Bond bullshit. It’s a shame lawsuits stalled the franchise. Goldeneye was written specifically for Dalton and it would’ve been the movie his Bond shined
>>212279081 (OP) >movie that balances drama, fun and intrigue What makes you think Villeneuve can do that?

DAF was made to be a complete opposite of OHMSS which fans didn’t like at the time. Unfair because it was a good move, just a horrible one to introduce a new Bond especially after Connory. Connory slept walk through that movie and only did it because have him at the time highest pay for any actor for a movie. He donated it all to Scotland

>>212280920 Actually, seing as how Dalton wanted to go book accurate it makes sense that his Bond isn't a serial womanizer. In the novels he usually sticks with one girl and also doesn't like to sleep with them before the mission is over.
>>212281033 Additionally, Bond isn't a borderline psychopath either. Each of the books point out that he does not in fact enjoy killing and tries to avoid it whenever possible. He resents that part of the job. In fact, the line in TLD where Bond says he'd welcome getting fired by M is taken directly from the short story.
>>212280825 >Necros are actually pretty good. agreed, whoever said LD doesn't have great villains is ragebaiting. >explosive milk bottles + hitman agent 47 style disguised assassin and hiding bodies + headphones that double as garrote wire one of my favorite henchmen in the films

>>212281236 Don't forget TMWTGG, where he threatens to shoot a guy in the dick and nearly breaks a girl's arm. I don't think Bond has ever been more of an asshole since then.
>>212280465 So you compare that to feminist deconstruction? Fuck off, dude You are merely simping and would outrage if a male MI6 staffer was dressed like agoth while troondom is titally OK cause muh black stuntmen in the 70s

>>212281033 Dalton didn’t have say over the script. Moore was getting a lot of backlash for being so old with younger women. Political correctness was ramping up and the whole bullshit AIDs propaganda lying straight people could get AIDS. Thanks Fauci. Shit, bitch from TLD did documentary on how sexist Bond was with a bunch of former Bond girls bitching about it. With Brosnan they course had to make M old bag telling him where a sexist dinosaur he was
There's a lot of Africans with HIV, and almost none of them got it from gay buttsex or heroin needles. In their case, the driver is promiscuity among straight people.

>>212281447 Pretty good observation. I honestly would have just minimized Whitaker's role and made it so he was Koskov's inwitting pawn.

>>212281236 >>212281347 They wanted to diffierentiate him from Connery starting with the Spy who Loved Me, traces of LALD and TMWTGG Bond which was closer to Connery returned in FYEO This is why I blame the writers and not Moore for his films being silly (I still love his films though)
