So like half the Bond films then? I actually remember the first time I watched Die Another Day, I thought it was pretty good and was taken with Rosamund Pike as I think she'd been in Loaded a couple of months prior

 

Pierce Brosnan got really old between "The World Is Not Enough" and "DIe Another Day". He looked old and tired, like Sir Roger looked in "A View to a Kill".

Moore was really too old to be playing Bond in Octopussy. They should've never talked him into doing A View to a Kill. Still Roger Moore will always be my fave Bond. Live and Let Die had everything you could ever want in a Bond movie. Full of action with plenty of humour. Oh and a young Jane Seymore.

Just seen Spectre. Not as obviously exciting as a standalone film as Casino Royale or Skyfall, but entertaining all the way through and draws a line under the 4 Craig Bond films nicely.

 

Yes, it even references Quantum of Solace.

Thanks for that. Love the 30 for 30 series and I really enjoyed Foxcatcher. It's grim as anything but its well acted by all involved even Channing Tatum who probably didn't stretch himself too much to play the role of a monotone meathead.

 

Still desperate to get hold of the Team Foxcatcher tracksuit top that Steve Carell is wearing when he's on the shooting range, but to no avail

FYI, that documentary is on BT ESPN tonight at 10.00
Damn. I missed it.

Any idea if it will be repeated?

According to Virgin, not in the next 2 weeks dude. I'm sure it'll be online somewhere?

Once David Baddiel (shit name drop) gave me a really hard time because I recommended a film with old Pierce Brosnan in it to him when I worked in a video shop. It was after the sunset or the matador, I vaguely remember him insisting I must have been lying when I said it was good.

You should have fire extinguished that motherfucker.

If Spectre is to be Craig's last Bond film, who would people on here like to see replace him in the role? And who should direct the next film?

Michael Fassbender has to be the next Bond.

I saw Spectre today, like I said the other day not seen a Bond film in years so was lost a little with the call backs. I was sat there at certain parts thinking "I'm sure that means something" but if you know what to expect from a Bond film you can still enjoy it

Makers can't keep on going to the younger lads for the next guy. Roger Moore was middle 40s when he got the part and I'm guessing Timothy Dalton and Brosnan were the same. Can't think of anybody like that now that stands out. Gerard Butler perhaps?
