ok, with Brosnan they started using this more and more to try and generate a new Bond image imo,
it didnt make much difference on Goldeneye, little more noticable in TND & TWINE but jesus the gadgets and SFX went well over top in DaD.... so what the millenium bug didnt happen...no need to use all the bleeding technoligy to the full extend
This is why the next bond film will worry me
yerssot
I'm not sure if it's for the new Bond imago, but more cause now they could do it since it were the 90s and the computers could do such stuff now.
but yeah, some FX were over the top and it was more noticable in DaD which brought a lot of bad comment from it, ... which they should have seen coming eventhough "the movie made fun of itself"
and if Tarantino does get his way, we won't get a lot of FX

Evy_O
I agree about some things in DaD being over the top
But all in all, I like SFX

yerssot
you also like jinx, that says enough

Evy_O
ok, let's not start about the things YOU like then

yerssot
to stay on topic...
the Lotus that could go sub, was nice
Evy_O
I also liked that car that had a remote control, cool-ness

yerssot
well, he didn't pay more attention to the women

though that wasn't really SFX evee

Evy_O
doesn't matter, I thought I should mention cause you mentioned Lotus

yerssot
yeah, but that one could be SFX with the water and all
forumcrew
sfx are cool and all but bond is becoming to reliant on them to sell tickets as a lot of movies are
yerssot
well, the last two perhaps, but if they do take Tarantino as he hopes, than they will probably go back to basics
Evy_O
people want SFX, movies got to sell tickets... 1 + 1 = 2... It's obvious that this won't change, that's the way it is

yerssot
I dunno, if it has a superbe story, I'll like it more than a movie full of SFX
Evy_O
I'd like those two combined

yerssot
but can that happen? good story AND SFX? it's not an FF story

Evy_O
It can happen, stop being all negative

I really think it can

yerssot
up to now, bond movies haven't proven it can mix
Evy_O
Perhaps not to you, I liked latest Bond movies

yerssot
cause of pierce, the best bond there is perhaps
yerssot
but even he couldn't help the bad SFX you saw in DaD when he's doing that parachutejump
Evy_O
yeap, and that thingy at the ice, after the ice hotel, seemed very fake

yerssot
could you specify the thingy? cause there were lots of thingies afther the ice thingy

Evy_O
stop making fun of my obsession with the word thingy

well, when he was in this kewl vehicle and the satellite thingy (

) was trying to melt him, and everything that followed

yerssot
no problem, thingy

you mean when he was in that jet? that the beam followed him?
Discos
you would think that the ice palace would have been freezen, not to wear formal wear and meet and greet people for dinner
Discos - sod that
yerssot
they said it kept a very precise balance between the cold and heat ... perhaps dry ice has a lower melting point or something?
yerssot
that's what they said in the movie
yerssot
saw TND...some over the top FX in that one, but generally not that overflooded
yerssot
hmmm... no
the explosions on the bazaar were a bit too much ie
yerssot
it should really go back to the old Connery days
Evy_O
ohh yes I remember the explosions

didn't think it were too much

yerssot
you couldn't MISS the explosions

mah
Instead of going back to the Connery days, make Connery JB again. He's not..that old...
yerssot
he's only ... semi-bald and his accent is even worse now ... not that fit anymore ... lost his charming looks ... but sure

the mah has spoken
