ok, finally watched it..

 

daniel craig really is killing off the bond franchise..

 

i didn't like casino royale, and this didn't improve craigs acting either..

 

yes, the stunts were great, i'll give it that...

 

but the story was subpar, the acting overly dramatic,

and off course there's always the terrible henchmen that cant hit the broadside

of a barn with a machine gun that always miss bond..

 

to the predicatable plot twists, to the boring climax...yawn..

 

what happened to this franchise???

 

i know, i must have been the only person that actually LIKED both

of the timothy dalton versions... although sean connery could never

have been replaced...

 

maybe they'll replace daniel craig, and try it again soon with someone else?

 

or maybe they should just let the series die off with whatever dignity (if any)

that is has left..

 

later

Well fuck me there's a surprise...a film you didn't like.  ;)

 

Personally, after the slime ball Brosnan, the only way Bond could go was up. I thought Casino Royal was a pretty good Bond flick. Took the whole franchise in a new direction. I like the way Quantum follows on straight from the last film (although I've yet to see it). I'm just glad they've gone a different route from all the the silly gimmicks and bloody invisible cars.

 

As for Licence to Kill...I though that was one of the better Bonds. Craig and Dalton actually play Bond quite similar. A back to basics Bond.

 

Hopefully We'll get to see the film this weekend.
