| The Ghost of RubangB said: Die Another Day was the worst Bond film ever made. Worst plot, worst editing, worst gadgets, worst characters, worst acting, worst everything. That movie made me stupider. The camerawork and editing really didn't help it at all. Worst song too. Worst intro montage. Worst one-liners. Worst Bond girl. And James Bond gets captured and tortured for months and grows a beard? Fuck that shit. You forgot to put Barry Nelson and David Niven on your list, but I doubt they'd get any votes anyway since nobody's ever heard of 'em. I can't pick a favorite between Sean Connery, Timothy Dalton, and Pierce Brosnan right now... so I'll vote for Dalton since he doesn't have any votes yet, and because he was amazing in Flash Gordon and Hot Fuzz. |
Yeah, Die Another Day was about as bad as a movie can get.
@Montana: I also enjoyed The World is Not Enough. Definitely the best of the Brosnan Bond movies alongside Goldeneye.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
