Hmm?

every movie has their ups and downs... DaD barely had any ups, but that's for another thread

'twas in the spirit of the time and other movies ok-ish

I didn't really think it was that good, it was just a remake of thunderball and Sean Connery was getting pretty old at the time.

but Irvin Kershner directed it

NSNA had a great title {the way in which it riffed on one of Sean Connery's comments about "never" becoming bond again after DAF was great}. Too bad about the movie. Uninspired, hokey SFX {even by the standards of the day}, and possibly THE WORST HAIRPIECE SINCE WILLIAM SHATNER!

there there, there are other wigs that are terrible too

I like eating burnt penguins, especially when they have got choco sprinkles on them!

^ dont ask

people and their penguins these days

connery had been done beign bond for quite a wile.. he did an excellent in the job the only thign saving it from tanking.. but WB made this movie and it isnt even considered one of the official 20 "bond movies" it was ok.. but ill take the original Thunderball any day

It wasn't half-bad despite it plainly ripping off Thunderball.

Errr... it's SUPPOSED to riff on it! It's a remake!!!

It sucks! Not even a Real bond movie cause WB did it and no MGM/UA.

I didn't like it. JMO

it was average. not as good as Thunderball, but better than connery's previous & last official effort, diamonds are forever, and much better than Octopussy which was moore's contemporary official MGM offering, in cinemas at the same time way back in the early eighties. (you know what they say about the 80s: if you can remember them, you were there!)

Good, but not as good as it could have been.

Shaun Connery is still plating action roles now, so I wouldn't be over surprised if they let him make another bond as a one off again, or just let him have a cameo role or a supporting role in another bond movie (maybe as a retired mi6 agent)

Apparantly, he was going to play James Bond Sr. in DAD... which is probably crap of course since it was established in "Goldeneye" that Bond's parents are both dead after a climbing accident!

could have played his foster father/father figure in mi6

they always say stuff like that, hoping sean wil return

And as a final "Bump", I present to you the first ever thread I made in this forum {using a sock, as you can see, but let's try and forget about that, eh?}



Hmmm - Sean {that's right, not "Shaun"} Connery in another Bond film? Bah! Too old I say! And too confusing too!

Oh, and about that earlier comment that "octopussy" is worse than "never say never again"? Get outta here!

you'll get banned now

and connery won't return to bond

They can't afford him anyway .

he was gonna return in DaD though

So they say. I doubt whether the rumours were true ...

I hope not, would be silly if the broccolis would cast him as dad

Especially since it's canon now that the parents died in a climbing accident {according to Alec in "GE"}.

indeed... that's why it surprises me that the brocollis would look past that

Anything for a bit of dosh ...

but they stand on their stripes on bond

Perhaps.

"More back...but only more soooo, Ahnold...and still the same old A!!!"

not perhaps, ahnold, they DO!

Perhaps .

do or do not, there is no perhaps!

Well other than the fact that they had connery who was old enough to be Kim Basingers grandfather in that movie,it was a good movie.

that's what you get for being non-canon

But what about Roger Moore and Tanya Roberts {Stacey} from "AVTOK"? There's a whopping 28 year age difference between them ...

as long as it's in babydoll it's ok

Huh? What does that mean?

nothing at all

Um, okay ...

cause I can't remember the movie it's in

It's A MEMORY THING, eh?

and as we know, I suck at it

Still confused as to what this means. Are you saing that this is a movie quote?

no, a clothingline

{Realisation} Oh! NOW I get it! Sorry - I got a bit mixed up back there ...

I really should see "NSNA", erm, again. It deserves another look in, methinks ...

but it's non canon! it's the dirth of the earth

Definitely crap.

It is in the catergory of, so bad it's good.

Nah, it's crap.

It was crap and not even considered part of the franchise, and anyway it was just a rehash of thunderball

yep.

It was a terrible film and should not be mentioned in the same breath as the rest of the franchise.

If you watch it as a stand alone one off movie then it isn't bad. But once you start comparing it to the official Bond films it suffers badly.

But there's also Barbara Carrera.... roar

It was a terrible film and a big mistake.
