What the fuck did I just watch
>>223734322Dr NoA pretty unremarkable film all things considered.What about it did you find so confusing?
>>223734322james bond's boring vacation in jamaicathe most exciting part of the movie is bond fighting a tarantula in his hotel room
>>223734322If you want to watch a good Bond movie, you have to watch The Living Daylights.
Yeah the first one blows I almost never rewatch it. The next three are absolute kino starting with from russia with love
>>223734363>What about it did you find so confusing?Bond is always very phlegmatic.
>>223734322Pure kino. The best Felix, and Bond orders a black man to fetch his shoes.
>>223734700My milleniall sister was absolutely shocked and offended by that scene kek.
>>223734438this anon is correct
>>223734322The early Bonds are about the style, attitude, and atmosphere, not stunts and chases, though they have those as well.
>>223735374This. Dr No and FWWL are pure 60s stylized espionage movies. Goldfinger is when it all went cartoon level ridiculous
>>223734322>>223734381>>223734363>>223734438>they didn't think bond's vacation in jamaica was a good filmfiltered. maybe skyfall is more up your alley
UNDERNEATH THE MANGO TREE
Cozy film underneath the mango tree
>>223735989This
>>223734322Unironically a top 10 Bond film. Only chuds, faggots, and normies hate it.
>>223735929literally me rn
>>223734322>I think they were on their way to a funeralICE COLD
>>223734322Bond aficionado here. The first 6 Bond films are in the top 10. Then TSWLM, GE, CR, and SF. Anyone who disagrees is a tranny. No Dalton movies because while Dalton was a great actor, his movies were cheap, junky, and low budget. Basically the opposite of OHMSS, which was a great movie with a shit-tier Bond.
>>223736586I like the grittiness of the Dalton pictures
>>223734322I marathoned all of the Bond films last year all the way to Craig and can't remember anything before The Engineer's flicks. Absolutely forgettable.Which is good for me because I can rewatch them sooner. Sean is best bond, if I recall.
>>223736709Connery is the best Bond. Followed closely by Craig. Then Moore for fun’s sake.
>>223736325>>223736586If your arguement is just fanboyism and then preemptively insulting people who disagree then your argument is worth less than shit.
>>223736861Dude relax it’s not that deep. Dr. No is unironically a good Bond film.
>>223735929UP IN DA CLUB
>>223734322Dr No is great, I love how simple it is, it's better than something over the top and silly like DAF or YOLT
>>223734322soul>>223734438One of my favorites
I was pretty close to watching all the early James Bond's, and I think I got about 20 seconds into this one, the first one, and and then I realised that most of the producers were from a certain ethnic background, and then I checked the other films and saw they were all similarly like that. So I made the choice to dip and I don't regret it.
>>223734438There literally aren't any bad Bond movies until Die Another Day
>>223737471YOLT is when Connery was fed up with Bond. Whole outer space shit and volcano layer. It’s unfortunate because he was suppose to do OHMSS but weather didn’t allow it so skipped to YOLT. I always wondered what Connery’s Bond In OHMSS would’ve looked like. Hard to imagine his psychopath Bond falling in love
>>223737541Based and correct. Die Another Day isn't even that bad compared to the Craig shit
>>223736675I wonder if the reason License to Kill is my favorite Bond film is because it's the least Bond-like Bond film (not counting Craig slop)
>>223734322I liked how the ending just sorta gets thrown together like an am-dram theatre production >interior, volcano, bond just takes every cunt out as he escapes (with zero other plot detail)
>>223734322all pre craig bond films range from trash to okay, and thats the dogone truth
>>223737621The Craig stuff sucks becasue they're embarrassed to be Bond films.
>>223737621Solid revenge plot, awesome villain, cute Bond girl, best Q scenesLTK is definitely top tier
>>223734322The James Bond franchise only became noteworthy with Goldfinger, which was where it hit upon the formula for all future films in the franchise and changing the story from the book enough to fit that. It wasn't too difficult mostly as a lot of the formula was based on stuff Flemming had in most of the books, but changed just enough to make it not a snorefest like Dr No.
>>223737661> snorefest like Dr Nofiltered loser
>>223734322This is easily the most boring Bond movie(not counting the Daniel Craig shitfests)
>>223737661>>hates Dr. NoKys immediately literally a top 10 Bond film
thunderball was my favorite connery film
>>223737809Lick my Thunderballs
>>223737809That's my favorite of the franchise as well, with FRWL as the best overall.
>>223734322>What the fuck did I just watchThe first of many Bond films, all of which are remakes of this. It's the same movie over and over: handsome guy, beautiful woman, villain who desrves to die, et cetera. They just kept adding or tweaking stuff: more stunts, more quips, more babes, more gadgets, more camp, less camp, different leading men, recurring characters (Q, M, Moneypenny, Felix), et cetera."A Bond movie is not made. It is packaged. Like an Almond Joy. So much coconut to this much chocolate and a dash of raisins."
>>223737809I am India this pictrue make me happy
The only totally unredeemable Bond movies are Quantum of Solace and Never Say Never Again. It's funny how much critics worshipped NSNA, it was the most critically acclaimed Bond film at the time and all because of Boomers worshipping Sean Connery
I love Dr. No. Past the very beginning, I mean. The mountain chase, the part where he shoots the asshole (you've had your 6), wrangling up the boat, meeting the girl on the beach and convincing her that he's safe "I can assure you my intentions are honorable" or whatever the fuck he says, hiding in the swamp lakes, the fucking dragon lol, the way he shit talked Dr. No the entire time. Nah I loved it even though it was incredibly campy, I think I just really love beach/ocean settings. Also Honey Ryder was a fuckin babe and I love that stupid song she and Bond kept singing
>>223738715>Never Say Never AgainI thought it was decent, the opening sequence is the best part of the movie though. Literally Metal Gear.
>>223738715What the hell are you even talking about? Nobody likes Never Say Never Again. It's the black sheep. Everyone knew Connery was too old in Diamonds Are Forever and Never Say Never Again was like 10 years later.
>>223738793I liked the weird video game part.
>>223738821He looks so fucking leathery in his last 2 flicks.
>>223738793Exactly. Besides the titles and the video game section for lols, no reason to watch.>>223738821>Never Say Never Again was broadly welcomed and praised by the critics: Ian Christie, writing in the Daily Express, said that Never Say Never Again was "one of the better Bonds",[56] finding the film "superbly witty and entertaining, ... the dialogue is crisp and the fight scenes imaginative".[56] >Janet Maslin, writing in The New York Times, was broadly praising of the film, saying she thought that Never Say Never Again "has noticeably more humor and character than the Bond films usually provide>Roger Ebert gave the film 3+1⁄2 out of four stars, and wrote that Never Say Never Again, while consisting of a basic "Bond plot", was different from other Bond films
>>223737531British?
>>223738906I mean, it was received favorably compared to the contemporary Moores because people were tired of him.
>>223738821Connery didn’t even bother getting into shape and was a chub in DAF. He actually got into shape for NSNA to play a retired Bond coming back in a Thunderball remake. I didn’t mind it. Same way I didn’t mind his old ass in The Rock
>>223734322A boring test drive that they had to get through before they could get to From Russia With Love and actually make a good movie
>>223738611there's no raisins in an Almond Joy, guy, opinion discarded
>>223734322I started to go back and watch some of the old Bond movies recently because everybody said they were great. I don't know, not really seeing it.So this is supposed to be some great intro right? He's wearing a tuxedo that looks like it came of the clearance rack at Men's Warehouse, and instead of playing like poker or an actual popular game, he's playing some fucking stupid game called Bacchanal that nobody has ever even heard of before and nobody fucking even knows the rules. The table is full of people but nobody else is even playing and they are speaking using some stupid game lingo that nobody is going to know. And he is supposed to be cool because he is carrying cigarettes ins some metal case? Like he took them all out of the pack by hand and put them in there to take them out later? Fucking kek! And they are making him deal the cards to what look fucking cool? Bro they hire somebody to do that, and he is sitting right next to Vagina Trench but I don't know what the Fuck he is doing. Come on Bond!Yeah I was pretty much out after seeing this nonsense scene. i already had to some Jamaican Fucking version of the 3-blind mice song.
>>223739846>BacchanalDo y'all niggas even SWEEVEE BONKO
>>223739846Pack my ass. Cigarettes in a case like that are assumed to be hand rolled.
>>223740133Kek! How the fuck do you handroll a cigarette? What is even the point?
>>223740190So you know what's in it and can actually use quality tobacco?
>>223737809I agree. While watching Never Say Never Again I thought that one was pretty good too until I realized it was the same plot.
>>223734322Keep watching, you're about to hit gold...
>>223734322the best bond flick
>>223737541from Russia is shit
>>223737809I was going to pick one but realized I hate all of them.
>>223737541Even the cringecore like Moonraker has some impressive practical work and stunt stuff in it.Yeah it was all fine until Y2K hit.
>>223741042Peak ragebait right here.
>>223741216Even the one people hate the most, Diamonds Are Forever, is kino you have to nitpick to find a reason to rank it low.
>>223737621License To Kill is too low-stakes for a Bond movie, being set in Florida doesn't help either
>>223741262Old Vegas is coolThe Bond girl is smokin' The gay hitmen are pretty neat
>>223734322The final act felt rushed to me
>>223734322It's the only Bond movie I've ever watched and I liked it, had no idea people disliked it
>>223741665Most people don't dislike it. Some just point out it's a bit underdeveloped compared to what came after. It's like a pilot in a way.
>>223741339Felix wife dies in the opening.>low stakes
>>223741339The plot sucked but Timothy Dalton actually the was the actor that actually "got" Bond. He was closest to books Bond.
>>223738821i like the song for it
>>223741871What a shame we only got two movies from him
>>223734322pretty tame first movie, but they NAILED the Bond formula with the second movie From Russia With Love.
>>223741913The unused track by Phyllis Hyman is better.
and the award for most generic comment of the day goes to... >>223741871
>>223742366You fucking suck dick don't you?
>>223742466unlike u i have taste in movies not in penises
>>223734438the spy who loved me is the best bond film. the ski jump in the beginning is the most kino bond scene in all of the franchise
All the 60s and 70s movies just blend together for me. I've seen them all several times, but if you asked me which one Diamons Are Forever is, I couldn't tell you what it's about.
>>223743053It's the one where Bond is getting chased by two smuggling gay guys. Also Blofeld is played by the narrator of Rocky Horror Picture Shoe who also plays some random weeb Bond goes to talk to in Tokyo that then gets assaainated by Blofeld played by Donald Pleasence goons in You Only Live Twice. There's a movie in between YOLT and Diamonds where Bond is played by an Australian photo model and Blofeld is played by Kojak and Bond gets married and stuff. The continuity over these three films in the series in particular is really whacky.
