I've never understood why a spy - someone trying keep a low profile and blend in as much as possible - would always be driving around in some rare, exotic, never-been-seen-before flashy sports car that literally screams to be noticed.

But hey, this is Hollywood - the land of no-questions-asked product placement prostitutes

He's a terrible spy, haven't you noticed he gets captured like every time and always forgets to bite down on his cyanide capsule.

He seems to have a singularly charismatic hold over evildoers however, even more than all the women falling over with their legs in the air. The evildoers need to lay out their carefully crafted and often narcissistic plans for world domination before trying to bump him off in some unfeasable and somewhat slow way, instead of them simply placing a large calibre semi auto against his temple and squeezing slowly. This overweaning need for adulation that Bond brings out baddies is a truly remarkable talent and not to be underestimated.

They never show us how he dies, it happened many times after all. James Bond is just an alias, like 007. Bond has been killed, killed, resurrected and killed, killed, killed, killed, and sucking. Haven't you guys noticed how many different Bonds there are?

^^^That's how I wish I started off on the topic.

Why the current Bond is good and you lot are a bunch of wankers.A short essay by IdolEyes787.

Craig's Bond understands that what he does he does at the cost of his soul. Therefore he is at once both supremely noble and irrevocably damned.
Now fuck off.

Why the current Bond is not good and is a wanker, a short reply by mjmacky.

Craig's self-sacrificial antics are not a type I've ever sought in a Bond film. Therefore, I feel stuck watching him act out an overly crucified character and it's not as much fun.
Now blow me.

While this may have been true of his character during Casino Royale, Quantum of Solace was all about revenge, he was not wracked by guilt, it was a rampage, and to a certain extent this was exactly the same character portrayal as Timothy Dalton in Licence to Kill. He (Craig Daniels) may be more 'cut up' about what he is doing, but he is still off the reservation on a personal witch hunt.
I can't disagree with you about Die Another Day though, I'm kind of embarassed that it was a New Zealand director that dreamed up this confusing hodge podge.

Oh and why don't you make a short sentence out of the concepts of sex & travel
