Bond is back.

Damn I want to make a rated M hard core bad ass action fps game. No rpg. No sci-fi or fantasy. Just balls to the wall action with a gun. And maybe a tank or two. ;)

    The actor does look terrible. Then again, they named the movie after the Bond spoof movie. I haven't cared about one since Goldeneye anyway. Sean Bean is the best villain ever.

    That trailer looks like it's a good solid action movie and that's what I want to see in Bond movie. And no invisible cars. lol. I don't understand anyone who cares if James Bond is pretty enough. Kind of suprised that someone who would care watches James Bond movies to begin with.

    Generic action movies are a dime a dozen. Bond movies used to at least have a unique sense of style and humour to go with that. This guy lacks any of the style or charm that sets a Bond movie apart from your average action flick.

    @Paul

    are you talking about Daniel Craig? have you seen this movie already? how would you know that? i've seen Layer Cake and you can't get any more Charasmatic than he did in that movie. if I want comedy, i'll watch Austin Powers or Mr Bean or The Man Who Knew Too Little. i'm glad they are not making Bond be a Disney family movie anymore. it was starting to get embaressing to tell your friends you want to go see a James Bond movie.

    I'd have liked to have seen Brosnan get the role one more time, myself.

    Yeah, me too. I'm rooting for him to break away from Bond and get a real film career beside Bond movies. Where he doesn't have to worry about keeping up a heroic image. I really liked the Matador.

    I've seen Craig in a few other movies and he's great. Looking forward to see what he can bring to the Bond character.

    Oh dear. Brosnan was the antithesis of the character. Sure, he started up well, then he ended up on Dr. Phil looking for his feminine side. He is supposed to be the cold-hearted womanizing assassin. After you're dead he shoots you twice in the back for good measure.

    I like the choice for Craig because he doesn't stand out. He doesn't strut. He doesn't pose. He's not supposed to. If you picture Will Ferrell in the roll, who's he going to be closer to? Craig or Brosnan? I can't say if Craig can pull it off, but Brosnan was DONE.

    It is funny how Bronsan then went off to make a James Bond copycat, The Matador right after he was done with JB.

    Yeah, and the Matador was vastly superior to his James Bond movies. Brosnan got stuck playing the girl in his Bond movies cause he was too pretty... and that sold too well. I personally want to see him work with Quinten Tarantino and make the Kill Bill/Pulp Fiction of spy movies. he tried for years to get QT on a Bond movie but the powers that be knew that would be box office suicide. Maybe now he can pull it off. He sure has made a great start with The Matador.

    That was a cool trailer but why did they change the lead character for Transporter 3? Only thing is he isn't as charasmatic as the original Transporter. Let's just all the greatful he didn't get the role for the next James Bond movie. *whew*... close call.

    LOL

    Hey, after Crank... I don't ever want to see Jason Statham in another PG13 movie. He needs to keep making badass rated R action movies. And I'm thinking of Jason Statham as a possible new Bruce Willus(minus the freakiness Bruce Willus must have had to marry Demi Moore). They should give him the Die Hard series.

    I just went to the website you mentioned above. What a bunch of nuts. Wow. If I were Pierce Brosnan I would write them and tell them to shut the hell up. They are embaressing him. Talk about needing to get a life.
