Why Can't They Have A Decent Swansong?

Started by Ahnold2 pages

Um ... maybe we should return to the topic at hand 😛 ...

your hand?

Sorry, another one of my stupid expressions. Let's return to the topic, eh?

okay 😄

so you think they just decided to leave?

Except for Brosnan, yes.

Does anyone else feel that each Bond actor's swansong was weak?

gotcha 😬

well, I pretty much agree with you (hadn't noticed it before though) though I do think that Dalton's "swansong" was good

but the possitive side of all this is that the new bond won't have that much to live up to 😉

As do I {as I mentioned in my post}.

Heh - how true 😄 .

yeah, you did but I wanted to stress again that I thought Dalton did a good job especially stopping the slapstick humor in his movies AND doing most of his own stunts

but the problem still is that the writers are the ones that slapped DaD together 🙁

It's nice to know that he did most of his own stunts, but I didn't think that there was THAT much slapstick in his two entries ...

It's awful, I know. Apparantly, they wrote the howlingly unfunny "Johnny English" too ...

Heh - I've always found it strange that Brosnan said he was grateful to have gone out "on a high" ...

Still, it's hardly surprising that he was fired since {according to Total Film magazine} he allegedly demanded a whopping 42 million dollars to stay on as James Bond ...

I only heared he asked for more than 40... and yeah, it wasn't the age, it was his greed 😖

actually, that's what I said (or at least intended to): not that much slapstick anymore in it...

Thank goodness for that!

all in the best possible taste of course 😉
