As an aside, that one PS2 game was really fucking good.
Comment on Basic thoughts after I recently re-watched the Craig-era Bond Films
maegul@lemmy.ml 2 months agoYea after watching through the Craig-era, and being disappointed with it overall (apart from Casino + Quantum), this was what I wondered too. I’d be really interested now to see if the Brosnan era stands up. I have suspicion it might, at more than I and many others expect.

The problem with the new Bond is it takes itself too seriously.
The old ones were tongue-in-cheek, with a wink and a nod.
Archer is more of a successor to the original Bond than the Craig stuff.

Damn. That’s so true. I hadn’t out that together myself as I haven’t gone back to watch an older bond in ages.

As someone else said, Austin Powers really kneecapped 007 by dialing up every trope to 11, leaving seriousness as the remaining option.
