Topic	The phrase 'Bond Girl' is now banned. Bond's wife will refuse to take his name.
Darmik 11/13/19 12:41:09 AM #80:	Skye Reynolds posted... Quantum of Solace was a bad film, but there was still purpose and drive in the scenes with dealing criticism of American foreign policy and Bond's dark "what he doesn't know won't hurt him" morality. Meanwhile, when asked to write for a villain who can't feel pain or an adversary who wants to become Bond, there's virtually no material or motivation. I don't get it. Do you want these movies to be 'cartoon-show-for-grown-ups' or not? How is Quantum of Solace more inspired than Casino Royale or Skyfall? Hell wasn't Die Another Day the one that began with James Bond being tortured by North Koreans for a year? Skye Reynolds posted... But there's more to the character than just chasing trends. It's a deliberate creative decision to make him gritty; an independent one. If Bond were chasing trends in Spectre, he'd have acted like Chris Pratt. The next James Bond after Craig probably will be. Bond actors typically swap between rugged and charming for each change. You're in here in a topic where people are upset that James Bond gets rejected by a woman for laughs. Craig is most certainly at the 'Is there a place for a person like Bond in the modern world?' stage. Which isn't the first time a Bond movie has asked this question. --- Kind Regards, Darmik <cite>Darmik posted [p:930060539] in The phrase...
