> “The movies have taken different courses over the years, but there is something very good about the original and I hope Amazon latch onto that and give us the kind of film that’s brought so much excitement and fun to so many people,” Dalton added. “Anyway, good luck to them, I say. I do wish them all the very, very best. They’ll be doing their best to make a lot of money, so hopefully they will make good movies.”
If this is the Amazon that brought us Rings of Power then I wish the Bond legacy all the best.
3rd best bond after Sean and pierce Bronson
This is like when George Lucas sold star wars. Things shifted quick away from good storytelling and focused on extracting money from the brand.
Instead of before, when they weren’t trying to do that?
Everyone makes movies to try and make a lot of money.
They’ll be doing the most, not their best.
GALLIFREY RISES!
TBF MGM was trying to make a lot of money when Dalton was the star.
I can’t wait for 007 to lead the forces of the last alliance against Sauron. Until, obviously, the aes sedai stop him. /s
Amazing and Bond? The franchise is about to become shite
He’s in my favorite Bond movie: Looney Tunes Back in Action.
Looking forward to all the spin off series, young Q should be good
He was amazing in Hot Fuzz
Such an Icon, stole every scene in Penny Dreadful.
They are good at torching IPs
I love bond so I hope we get more. We need something faster paced and more fun.
Yeah cause 007 was free before right?
