Kissing her bare back was the best part

The Bond girls have gotten from bad to worse over the years. Teri Hatcher was bad, Michelle Yeoh was worse, Denise Richards was rubbish. Of the recent Bond films, I've only liked Rosamund Pike. And now they go for these two
Any reason why Campbell didn't want to return? |

QUOTE(QuickFire @ Nov 6 2008, 06:15 PM) Halle Berry was the worst! Yeoh was pretty bad too. Rosamund Pike was lovely, and Famke Janssen... now that's a real predator! The idea with Bond girls were that they were supposed to be like Miss World/Universe - beautiful when you are imagining them naked. But once you've seen them nude, no fun at all. I quite liked Eva Green too, though aesthetics-wise it sometimes looked like she was a bit too perfect. I dont like that (though I am by no means saying she isnt hot!). But very good acting. Gemma Arteton has very little screen time here. Olga is a beauty with a killer body to boot, but she lacks any real substance and her story isn't compelling enough (as is with the whole QoS story). |

QUOTE(QuickFire @ Nov 7 2008, 09:51 PM) nothing is censored... though it sounded like there a small skip during the opening credits. They censored the opening credits because there's a semi-nude body formed by sand. And the conversation between Fields and Bond on the bed was shortened - no kissing her bare back : /Speaking of the credits, I actually like the song (listened to it before watching) but it doesnt work as a Bond tune. I also dislike alicia keys' voice. btw, ignore the review in today's The Star -- "... is a sequel of sorts to Casino Roayle". SEQUEL OF SORTS?? It's a direct frigging continuation!! I looked below and as expected... the reviewer was a female. I have a crush on Fields - what a waste |

QUOTE(QuickFire @ Nov 8 2008, 09:45 PM) There wasn't a PG-13 before temple of doom. They've resolved all loose ends already with Bond getting his revenge so what's with a direct continuation?It's become more Bourne-ish no doubt, but the unique Bond feel is still retained. This is better than that DAD dud anytime. Just bring aboard a director who has expertise in action movies (campbell is always welcome), a little less shakey cam, more dialogue and plot and the enxt can be a winner. I'll be looking forward to Bond23 anyhow. It's probably gonna be a direct continuation again. |

Have to agree, Strawberry Fields had so much potential to be a Moneypenny sort of character. What a doll she was in the time she was on screen.
