James Bond films are crap

I can't be the only on who thinks this surely?

Hit and miss. Roger Moore sucked. I like the Daniel Craig versions though. And of course Bond GIRLS are awesome, especially Christmas Jones (Denise Richards) ;)

Hit and miss indeed. Though I don't think *all* Roger Moore movies sucked - I quite liked Live and Let Die - (and not all Connery-ones were brilliant - I still think Diamonds Are Forever is mediocre at best). I'm pretty curious about Skyfall, I have to admit.

I quite like Live and Let Die due to the theme tune and Jane Seymour. But the actual film is a load of shit.

Daniel Craig couldn't act his way out of a custard maze.

you seen many of those then? and why would anyone need to act their way out of one?

"Why would he want to?"

That's a fair point!

Saw this the other day and meant to post it. A couple of slideshows that might be of interest.

The first Bond movie I saw was Die Another Day and I couldn't understand what was so great about it. Then I gave the franchise another chance and watched one of the Connery flicks and that did not work for me either. So for me, James Bond means "no, thanks".

true
i like watching them though.

Daniel Craig is a great Bond IMO. No disrespect to Pierce Brosnan, who I still think is a neat actor, but the franchise because such a cliche of itself far more under Brosnan. I have to say that the films since Craig have given Bond a darker twist to his character.

I hadn't seen any bond films before, and i wasn't sure what to expect with Skyfall -- cos sometimes that kind of thing is all hype (i.e. paranormal activity -- i heard so much about the paranormals, and was terrified watching them, but ended up bored out of my wits). I enjoyed Skyfall a lot, but it was a bit too long. Really good though! I want to watch some of the old ones, but maybe not ALL of them lol

Skyfall is a very good action film. Just watched it last night.

I have never really understood the hype surrounding James Bond. I really can't stand the franchise at all. My girlfriend's wee boy absolutely loves it (he's 11) and has all the films on DVD. I told him it was absolute bullocks - I mean, really? He's falling off a cliff and his boots turn into rockets and his watch turns into a parachute. F the hell off lol.
