James Bond?

[CTS]

So your screen name is Que... and youve never seen a Bond movie?

I thought that was the reason for your screen name.

Maybe he's bald?

Maybe he's bald?

Or he loves the Que. As in Bar-B-Q

I did not like the Bond movies as others have. I remember watching one at the theatre with my best friend, he thought it was so great, I thought it was ridiculous. It is a fantasy I know that, but I think it has to be a little believable to entertaining and I did not find it at all believable.

It may have already been said but the Bond movies have lost some of the attraction now due to the technology boom. When I was a kid I thought the coolest thing in the world was the Bond gadgets. I had to wait for the movies to be played on television (there was no need to say "Network television" back then there was just television) so they would edit out all the "adult" stuff per my mom.
Now a days they can't really put gadgets in a movie that you can't buy at the store, if they do then it is something that is totally not realistic. They have somewhat successfully changed the movies character to include more general tough smart spy stuff and less gadgets to accommodate this.

My point is, even if you go back and watch them from the beginning, the WOW factor of the gadgets will be gone due to the era you are watching them in in my opinion.

I know who the guy is, but I've never seen even one of the movies. Am I really missing anything? Should I get a package set and try to catch up? I really like the preview for the new one coming out and thought about trying to see them all over Christmas break or something. How many movies are we talking about?

i have not stopped crying since i read this..........

I liked the last two movies, but not a fan of the others.

I thought that the early movies were imaginative for the time.

Neat-o gadgets, cars, guns, bad guys and I was a little young to appreciate the sexy ladies in the movies - but the women were just novelty gimmicks if you think about it.

I don't consider it a classic series now. I doubt I'd invest in the box set unless it was very inexpensive.

I'll be able to watch them all, allowing my mind to travel back to the decade in which the movie was made. That seems like the fun part to me.

I kind of liked them when I was a kid. My father watched them quite a bit. I tried to watch some on Netflix recently and can't do it. The last two where pretty decent, though.
