I've run into Jane Seymour on more than one occasion (She used to fly on the same flight from LA to London that Mrs. Genesplicer and I preferred.) We have talked for a few minutes from time to time. Once I mentioned my Bond Girl theory to her. She smiled and said "Well, you never forget your first, do you?"

I think TND is miles better than TWINE. Twine has those loving awful screenwriters that drove the Craig films into the ground.

GoldenEye is in fact better than most if not all other Bond movies, and I can say that confidently as the first Bond movie I saw was GoldFinger, though at the time I was pretty sure it was a porn title. The first porn I ever saw was something my big bro left in the VCR that appeared instead when I was gonna show my buddy the movie Predator, and it was a guy lying between two ladies, all prone, and fingering their buttholes. So that's why I figured Goldfinger was also of that nature. Thanks for coming to my TEDx talk.

On another note, I love how the series has effectively ended 3 times. Goldeneye is in my eyes the series Swan song. Core to the plot is how the plot isn't destroying the world, it's just theft on a grand scale, and how the US Marines were ready to just shoot the guy but let bond have his moment of glory. The core of it is that Bond is obsolete, but he got in one last hurrah. The post-soviet setting and such eludes to this too- he's as much of a dinosaur as the USSR was. Skyfall does something similar, but changes it so that Bond himself might be obsolete, but the nature of himself and his mission isn't. Either way, a supposed ending for that character. No Time to Die literally kills him. This is why I suggest people watch at least these three: Goldfinger (the best of the original formula, arguable in a way but I think it subverts it just enough to be a singular stand alone.), Goldeneye (for the 90s indulgence and the whole swansong deal) and Skyfall. If at all possible. You Only Live Twice too as the peak of the non-subverted original formula.

Sentinel Red posted:The books are way less sexist though, no? Most of the women in them clown on Bond and own their poo poo at every opportunity while using Bond as a meat shield to distract the bad guys. The main takeaway from them is that Fleming would very much like a smart, stern lady to kick his rear end and step on his balls. The first 15 films largely ignore all this and just have them pootling about as clueless arm candy needing to be saved every 10 minutes. Yeah, book bond is hella sexist but the books themselves aren't. He gets crowned on relentlessly for it and is definitely not someone youre supposed to look up to. A good chunk of Casino Royale is him hella in denial about the feelings he totally doesn't have for this woman and how he's totally focused on the mission and not her legs.

pretty soft girl posted:This always felt like a dumb theory pre-Skyfall anyway on account of Lazenby, Moore and Dalton not subtly implied to be the same guy who married and lost Tracy The easiest way to make it work is that every bond has a general retro-active, but not specific, canon. Brosnan Bond defeated Goldfinger, but not in 1969. They all married Tracy, but at different times and circumstances. Until Craig rebooted it all anyway.

I am a little confused at how when the bad guys are trying to break into Bond's car they shoot it and have no effect, but as soon as James dives in and starts driving it with the remote control the windows are no longer bulletproof.

Oh hey, an off-again on again creative writing thing in my pile of them has been "Tell a kind of sorta Breaking Bad story but with a James Bond villain." Going through them going from small time crime and such, they're growing ego and obsessiveness. See him acquire his #2 and justify increasing extremes with his selfishness and ideology. Here's the present outline. The son of a nazi war criminal uses his fathers money to become a wealthy industrialist, and resents deeply his fathers 'ignorant ideology' that casts a shadow on his name. During the Cuban Missile Crisis he's loving terrified that two bickering superpowers are about to use their own idealogical hangups to destroy the world, and no matter how rich he is he can do nothing to stop it. His first step is getting involved in a mob conspiracy to assassinate JFK- he provides the funding. The mob tries to kill the shooter who flees to the Wealthy Guy, and they end up defending each other as they realize the other people in that conspiracy are going to clean house. This is Wealthy Guys first taste of blood, and they successfully cover their trail. Mob Guy owes his life to Wealthy Guy, and is now willing to tolerate just about anything as it's a second lease on life to begin with. Wealthy Guy ends up developing a theory: He'll make himself absolutely instrumental to NATO, by providing undercut electronics for missile systems. Political funding here, bribery there, and he becomes an American hero and instrumental in the MIC. The electronics have a back door though, a radio signal can cause false launches. His plan is to force disarmament through this. After his office is raided by NSA agents that he 'diposes' of, he moves to a more secure offshore lair. His henchmen are former Vietnam veterans and Russian conscripts, vetted by his #2, who are resentful at the status quo and superpower bickering. Ultimately his plan... I don't know. I've thought of having him succeed, but end up causing WW3 when the soviets take his plan as a good avenue to invade Europe. I've considered having him fail and die having become so far from his original well-meaning self he's almost alien. It's a tough choice to where I want that to end. I've also thought of having his plan slowly become more cartoonishly evil as setbacks push him into becoming more sadistic and violent, which plays into his ego and he spirals into becoming Blofeld. I'm also considering extending the 'opening' crimes, perhaps his first connection to the mob is giving them Superscience gear. Bank heist- with lasers! Can also play a little Geopolitical Forrest Gump with him. Nixon resigning? That was him! Tet Offensive? An attempt to teach America how stupid adventurism was. With each attempt, resulting in the system still being as broken as he thinks it is, he gets increasingly unhinged and his goals get loftier as he tries for grander schemes. What's cracking a few eggs of international terrorism for peace, after all. I definitely want to include the 'book' James Bond at some point. A complete rear end in a top hat narcissistic womanizer. Anyway, the reason I present this ramble here is you folks probably like SuperScience Spy Stuff, so does this outline seem interesting? SRQ fucked around with this message at 10:45 on Aug 30, 2022 |
