Ok, here is my take on Bond. I like the funny stuff. True perhaps it can become too silly like in Moonraker. But still I though Bond was always better when it wasn't too serious. That is why I hate Lisence to Kill. It turned Bond into a bad imitation of Dirty Harry. I agree with Bossk that the Brosnan era was the victim of bad writing. I actually think that Brosnan is better that Dalton but his era is also the victim of bad writing. To me Bond was at its best when it was humorous and light. I think its time to end the Brosnan era. I think they need to have a lot less action and more spying in the future Bond movies. In the old Bond movies Bond would sneak into the bad guy's hideout using his brain and Q's gadgets, In the latest era, he would shoot his way in. That has got to stop. I'd like to see more humor but not too much, more spying, less action, and more sophistication. And please no more opening credits with Bond being tortured in the background. One last thing, and I know this is going to sound sexist, but is anyone else bothered by a female M?

BTW, any rumors on who the next Bond will be?
