I saw him in Layercake and he was ok but as a Bond ? Don't rate him. Maybe when I see the movie I might change my mind.

They reckon Brosnan was too old to play Bond.

Yea I'm a massive fan of Bond...still not sure what this will be like with him in it....I would have kept Brosnan....although in saying that, Lazenby should have been kept on all that time ago...

My 12 y/o son and I are huge Bond fans and I reckon we have seen them all at least 5 times each. Can't wait for this one, looks great. I thought Brosnan was way too smug... my least favourite Bond for sure.

I saw an interview with George Lazenby, he said he didn't want to do any more Bond films after O.H.M.S.S. as he thought there was no future to the character/series...

Arguably one of the silver screens worst decisions.

Anyhow, he's now stuck with Pam Shriver as his missus...

Oh George, another brilliant move...

BOND: "Do you expect me to talk"?

They had to replace Q, the old bean who played him was killed in a car accident. Blofeld at work I assume, or Spectre....

I don't mind Dame Judy dench as "M", but I think the original "M" was best. Massive pi$$head apparently.

Yea, I have the DVD box set of them all, watch them over and over....
I wansnt sure about John Cleese at first, but he isnt too bad a replacement...and I quite like Judi Dench as M...she plays the role well, a very stern character, just as in the older movies...

Love the Bond movies, but the last ones have stunk immeasurably. Tomorrow Never Dies was the most recent one that was remotely good.

Bring back Sean Connery!
