There was one (I don’t remember which movie it was) that it was a saddle that had a spike shoot straight up. James looked at it and said “Brings tears to your eyes.”
He was a legend, but his successor honored him with a great performance. The irony, the *flaws*, him allowing his own ego to get the whole damn replacement-headquarters hacked in Skyfall gave the character a different kind of depth that simply was never asked of Desmond.
What I hate about this Skyfall scene is that he acknowledges an exploding pen, therefore he's also basically acknowledging invisible remote control cars, laser watches, jetpacks etc. The "we don't really do that anymore" line just feels kinda cheap, like he's spitting on the legacy. I understand their move to abandon the super OP gadgets and I like the Craig - Bond movies, but this one particular moment was just unnecessary. At least he could have joked about the MI6's budget or something. 😊
I agree with you fully. Moore and Dalton were passable, and that model guy was okay. But I grew up with Brosnan, he was Bond during my childhood, and I obviously watched all the Connery bond films to great adoration.
Brosnan was a good Bond, pity apart from GoldenEye the films were cheesy af. Moore aged out of the role but wouldn’t give it up when he should have. Dalton was on par Brosnan and had better films. Craig brought a similar grit to the character as Connery. As for the other one, he’s not even worth naming.
Agree with Brosnan, this year I watched all the movies in order, and now I have to say that Brosnan was the perfect match between action, humor and plots, and my favourite movie is one with Moore, "the spy who loves me".
They still are tbh the appeal to bond for me is the silliness Roger Moore is my favourite bond and moonraker is my favourite bond flim but as I've got older the behind the scenes the winks and nods simply fantastic

Because it's not I'm vogue. Bond is just another action hero, nowadays. They want characters like John Wick, or that other guy who's name I can't remember. Something Carter? I don't know. Can't be bothered to look it up.
The struggle to not look into the camera when saying you don’t do it anymore was real. Like the call of the reference to wink at the camera nearly took him
The scene in Skyfall really rubbed me the wrong way. It plays with expectations, but I much prefer Q as an old tinkerer who gives Bond whacky gadgets whilst chastising him for breaking them.
Well there's 20 movies where exactly that happens. I see where youre coming from, but I respect what the Craig films did to reinvent bond and change the formula in interesting ways.
The entirety of the Q scene in Goldeneye is simply brilliant. Great dialog, great pacing, great chemistry between the actors. Even a few blink and you'll miss it moments. Hasn't been topped sense.
That PARTICULAR "Q" sequence is also the most IMPORTANT of all! Because Desmond had been introduced in "From Russia With Love" (The previous film) but he had been deferential to Bond in that one - and not that memorable as a result. For Goldeneye - the director told Desmond Llewllyn - "No - DON'T play it deferential! You don't LIKE Bond! He doesn't treat your work with the proper respect in the field and it always gets broken! Bond is an extreme annoyance to you. But you are a professional, and will give him the proper briefing. But you make it clear that you don't LIKE doing this. And you play it with barely restrained sarcasm. Bond might be amused by all this. But to you this is serious. And you INSIST that he treat it seriously as well. At least as long as he's in your domain!" THAT was the dynamic that all the subsequent films copied, to one degree or another. And it made the character of Quartermaster Boothroyd - "Q" - MEMORABLE to the end!
@@maximilianbelmont4901 Yes, I did mean Goldfinger. A bit embarrassing that. Still - my point - about GOLDFINGER, yes - still stands. But oops - Goldeneye, not Goldfinger. Goldeneye sequence still awesome too! I think that covers all the bases now?
I may be older as i grew up with Connory and Moore but I couldn't stand Pearce. He actually killed my love of Bond while he was doing it and it only renewed with Daniel Craig. Everyone has their own preferences though so fair play.
@@cameronjones8641 Funny, I felt the opposite, loved Connery, I felt Brosnan had the look of a bond, but with Craig, you could start watching channel surfing and have no idea it's a Bond movie, Craig does not look like a Bond, it's a class thing.
@@enjoyerofnouns4109eh, don't argue with them. The anti-woke crowd have their heads stuck so far up theirs asses that they refuse to see the fact that they keep on complaining about things that don't need to be complained about.
Goldeneye, then perfect dark, were perfection. Perfect dark made all the possibilities of goldeneye come true with coop splitscreen as well as multiplayer with bots that had so many settings you could go wild. One of my fave things recently is my friend started recollecting n64 and games and now we play with each other again.
Man that was one of the number one things that made it hard for me to get into the new bonds. It used to not be afraid to have some cheeky fun now it’s just Jason Borne staring James Bond
Exactly. They removed everything that made it Bond. I don't understand it. It's like everyone has to be edgy now and do a dark gritty remaking of classics, but they are all the fucking same. Fine movies if that's what you like, but why call them James Bond? Why take out everything that defines what that is and keep the name? I hate it.
@@KaosNova2 He was actually retiring, but happened to pass away after filming! Just wish the could have used Cleese as R, but Daniel "I'm a terrible actor" Craig didn't want the part where they discussed the gadgets!
Yeah me too. Sometimes you just want to think of yourself as a suave, internationally known, yet somehow never compromised spy that gets all the coolest toys and the best girls.
@@anarchomando7707 Then he should have said that. "were you expecting an exploding pen? not after last time". Just the tiniest grain of humor, instead of "we're big boys now"
I never understood the reasoning for making fun of one of the most enjoyable aspects of Bond films, and specifically GoldenEye, which is my favorite film in the entire series.
The production company was trying to get more viewers in eastern Asia and they toned down a lot of what One might consider “iconic” aspects of the films to try to broaden the appeal. Put another way: dilution of the formula to try to sell more tickets.
all aspects of life are being treated this way, it is setting up rage for the marxist revolutions, but also the liberal writers , directors, actors virtue signaling.
On top of what everyone has already said, the Internet gives some writers the impression that they have to be "in on the joke", hence a rise in self-referrential, self-deprecating humour in modern films. It's a reflexion of the writer's insecurity about the quality of their script
Even the worst movie of his run Die Another Day is a goofy mess that is highly entertaining to watch. I loved Craig Era but Specter might be the actual worst Bond film ever made, it's just plain bad and boring.
@@darkhoboI just watched all the pre-Craig Bond films for the first time, and I found Goldeneye one of the worst ones, only above Die Another Day. Brosnan was wooden as fuck in that film, so all the relationships and his dynamic with 006 fell super flat to me. I also couldn't buy Bean as the villain for some reason, he felt more like a henchman. The hacker guy is probably the worst and most annoying character in film history for me. The pacing and dialogue were also atrocious. Overall, I found TND the most enjoyable of the Brosnan era.
I loved brosnan as bond he had the right look and charisma but only goldeneye was good the rest were kinda bad tomorrow never dies was ok the world is not enough was cool but die another die was terrible
@@cujofire594golden eye was absolutely one of his worst films, no relationships between the characters, wooden acting, bad dialogue and pacing, a villain with no character, honestly, just a complete mess of a movie
They don't make movies like they used to. They used to take their time to create the attention to detail, the characters, classic lines. Most newer movies fail to keep me interested in the slightest.
This is the legacy of the Bourne movies. They were so successful that the 007 franchise thought that's what audiences want. The gadgets were part of the charm!
The signature gun (detects finger prints) was already used in License to Kill (disguised as a camera). It was a terrible gadget then and here. Only useful if the enemy steals your weapon and points it at you. Plus, doesn’t Bond wear gloves later in this movie? An exploding pen on the other hand is awesome (what could go wrong!)
I did like both movie and game of goldeneye and the world is not enough. But if I have to choose favorite bond game it would be goldeneye can't beat the classic on N64
@@andreasfenrir1080 No way!! I vote Sean Connery. I really liked all of them even Roger Moore and Timothy Dalton. Of course I didn't care for the one time guy whose name I tend to forget.
Pierce Brosnan will always be my favourite Bond. I, to this day, don't think anyone else suited that roll as perfectly as him. Edit: love to see people giving some different opinions and why they feel that way. I'll put this out there, I'm in no way undercutting any other Actor to play Bond I think they all did wonderful. Brosnan just hit all the right checkmarks and I'm sure the N64 games played a part in my preference.
As a big fan of the books, I would say Timothy Dalton embodied what I feel is the "truest" Bond. Don't get me wrong, Brosnan's was no slouch, either, but there was just something about Dalton's portrayal that was more real. Its a shame he only got 2 movies.
Brosnan had the best looks and charisma - I was shocked when they announced Craig back then - he looked like a bad bond villain's henchman at best(still does)... but boy what a bond Craig turned out to be with THOSE looks, unbelievable and brave casting👌

That's because he still has spots
Wont be allowed to criticize the new Bond.
He's younger than Bond, why say that🤣😊
@@bobdeslob8768Says who?
@@Zer0DigitalStudio New James Bond will be a black jewish non-binary eco-activist with a disability.
The struggle to not look into the camera when saying you don’t do it anymore was real. Like the call of the reference to wink at the camera nearly took him
He only clicks it twice when he puts it back in his front pocket 😂
He clicked it once when he grabbed it from 007. He then clicks it twice before putting it in his pocket. That's 3 times in total
Actually he only needs to click one, because it was less than 4 seconds, so 4 clicks means nothing.
@@scifi_shop🤦🏼♂️
Most likely 1 time the pen was pressed right after production
you can hear a click when he grabbed the pen from 007, listen very closely, they give you 9 examples of the sound so you can hear it very clearly
The scene in Skyfall really rubbed me the wrong way. It plays with expectations, but I much prefer Q as an old tinkerer who gives Bond whacky gadgets whilst chastising him for breaking them.
Well there's 20 movies where exactly that happens. I see where youre coming from, but I respect what the Craig films did to reinvent bond and change the formula in interesting ways.
@@glendarjj3991exactly why I like the Daniel Craig films
@@glendarjj3991you mean shitty ways. All the Craig movies suck and turn Bond into Jason Bourne. He has no charisma and is pretty ugly too
@@glendarjj3991 i dont see stripping as reinventing.. but it was an interesting choice none the less.
I liked the guy that played Q in the new films.
The entirety of the Q scene in Goldeneye is simply brilliant. Great dialog, great pacing, great chemistry between the actors. Even a few blink and you'll miss it moments. Hasn't been topped sense.
That PARTICULAR "Q" sequence is also the most IMPORTANT of all! Because Desmond had been introduced in "From Russia With Love" (The previous film) but he had been deferential to Bond in that one - and not that memorable as a result.
For Goldeneye - the director told Desmond Llewllyn - "No - DON'T play it deferential! You don't LIKE Bond! He doesn't treat your work with the proper respect in the field and it always gets broken! Bond is an extreme annoyance to you. But you are a professional, and will give him the proper briefing. But you make it clear that you don't LIKE doing this. And you play it with barely restrained sarcasm. Bond might be amused by all this. But to you this is serious. And you INSIST that he treat it seriously as well. At least as long as he's in your domain!"
THAT was the dynamic that all the subsequent films copied, to one degree or another. And it made the character of Quartermaster Boothroyd - "Q" - MEMORABLE to the end!
Never use the phone in Q's lab

I think you mean Goldfinger and not Golden Eye.
@@maximilianbelmont4901 Yes, I did mean Goldfinger. A bit embarrassing that. Still - my point - about GOLDFINGER, yes - still stands. But oops - Goldeneye, not Goldfinger.
Goldeneye sequence still awesome too!
I think that covers all the bases now?
Desmond Llewelyn was one of the best parts of the original Bond movies. Somebody who doesn't take Bond's nonsense!
that's why I miss old 007
that's why old 007 is more 007
Pierce was THE 007 for me. He just had the look and charisma for that character
I may be older as i grew up with Connory and Moore but I couldn't stand Pearce. He actually killed my love of Bond while he was doing it and it only renewed with Daniel Craig. Everyone has their own preferences though so fair play.
@@cameronjones8641I found the Craig movies to be stuffy, brooding, and mostly just "meh". But, to each their own. I'm with optimus, Pierce ftw.
Because its the character you grew up with. Everyone prefers the version they saw as a kid.
@@cameronjones8641 Funny, I felt the opposite, loved Connery, I felt Brosnan had the look of a bond, but with Craig, you could start watching channel surfing and have no idea it's a Bond movie, Craig does not look like a Bond, it's a class thing.
as long as they dont make the new bond a gay black woman then i dont care who it is
You can literally watch the decline of Britain with the James Bond films.
The new Bond movies are like "we don't go in for the things that made the movie's cool anymore"
Came here to say that 😂😂 wait till the next JAMES BOND is a black woman 😂 Hollywood is insane and ruins anything with a legacy for politics

Golden eye was my favorite bond film of all time
Same here, it was the first one I saw, and the game for the N64 was fun too.
Goldeneye, then perfect dark, were perfection. Perfect dark made all the possibilities of goldeneye come true with coop splitscreen as well as multiplayer with bots that had so many settings you could go wild. One of my fave things recently is my friend started recollecting n64 and games and now we play with each other again.
*starts the Golden eye N64 pause music*
I am invincible!
@@wgebhard1 Nice. 👍
Man that was one of the number one things that made it hard for me to get into the new bonds. It used to not be afraid to have some cheeky fun now it’s just Jason Borne staring James Bond
Exactly. They removed everything that made it Bond. I don't understand it. It's like everyone has to be edgy now and do a dark gritty remaking of classics, but they are all the fucking same. Fine movies if that's what you like, but why call them James Bond? Why take out everything that defines what that is and keep the name? I hate it.
Craig’s Bond was humorless. And in hindsight, only Casino Royale was good, and Quantum of Solace at least had a good plot.
What an accurate and apt statement god
I hate James Borne
Disrespecting the legendary Q is like Indiana Jones testing the strength of the crystal skull
The best Bond and the Best Q. It will never be that good again. RIP Desmond.
It was sad watching The World is Not Enough, realizing that Desmond was gone.
@@KaosNova2 He was actually retiring, but happened to pass away after filming! Just wish the could have used Cleese as R, but Daniel "I'm a terrible actor" Craig didn't want the part where they discussed the gadgets!
Interesting how everyone says that about the era of media they grew up with. Almost like the human brain has a tendency for bias.
Nah connery was the best bond by far
@@stevebanning902 - Roger Moore would be my next favourite after Brosnan.
"Where you expecting an exploding pen?" Yes! I can go to a gun store and get what you gave me, how bad was the R & D budget slashed?
Bad
Tory Budget cuts bit hard
@@rikachu571This gave me a good laugh.
But can you get it coded to your palm print?
Goldeneye was awesome...especially when the N64 game came out!
One of the best game adaptations. Mostly loyal to source material.
Goldeneye was the second stepping stone for FPS back in the day. Then in 2001-2002 halo made the ground breaking step.
Rareware was amazing in the Nintendo Era. They hardly sucked
Music to that game still holds
To this day when I pause a game to run to the bathroom I am humming the pause music from that game.
Ah, the good old times, when Bond was good 🤩
"Yeah. Yeah I kind of WAS expecting something cool but that's fine
“DON’T TOUCH THAT! That’s my lunch!”
"the whole worlds gonna know uou scratched my balls" 😂 ill never get over hearing that line from 007
New Q sure seems confident for someone who'll connect the villain's laptop to MI6's secure network.
What a delightful way to give the finger to the very franchise you're supposed to be upholding. Real classy.

Newer Bond films are too serious. I prefer the older ones. Fun times
Yeah me too. Sometimes you just want to think of yourself as a suave, internationally known, yet somehow never compromised spy that gets all the coolest toys and the best girls.
Austin Powers is to blame if you believe Daniel Craig
@@boredomisbliss6271 Eh, he's not wrong
They turned them into a Jason Bourn's Erzsats.

He literally died in the newest movie

Hahaha fabtastic
Wut? Skyfall was peak James Bond
@@franny98 Skyfall sucks. You only have bad taste.
Skyfall is the best one by far
@@Brand00d for losers it is!
Each classic Bond in its own way. It's all in the attitude, old boy.

-Yes.
Skyfall pissed me off with that😂 When Q says “We don’t go for that kind of thing anymore.” I’m like why not?
No no I was thinking this zany idea kind of backfired horrifically and they had to do cleen up
@@anarchomando7707 Then he should have said that. "were you expecting an exploding pen? not after last time". Just the tiniest grain of humor, instead of "we're big boys now"

I stand with you!
Agreed
No time to die on that hill .
Sell me this pen
“Explodes”
“Sold”
In _Spectre,_ Q gave Bond an exploding Omega.
Speaking of exploding Omega, I just came back from taco bell..
I never understood the reasoning for making fun of one of the most enjoyable aspects of Bond films, and specifically GoldenEye, which is my favorite film in the entire series.
"Subverting expectations" is all the rage when your writers are creatively bankrupt.
The production company was trying to get more viewers in eastern Asia and they toned down a lot of what One might consider “iconic” aspects of the films to try to broaden the appeal. Put another way: dilution of the formula to try to sell more tickets.
all aspects of life are being treated this way, it is setting up rage for the marxist revolutions, but also the liberal writers , directors, actors virtue signaling.
May it was the message people.

They ruin everything
Evil cannot create only corrupt.

On top of what everyone has already said, the Internet gives some writers the impression that they have to be "in on the joke", hence a rise in self-referrential, self-deprecating humour in modern films. It's a reflexion of the writer's insecurity about the quality of their script
The old James bond movie series was just ❤
🤌
You mean Connery's?
@@BautiNogueira. The one with Peirce Brosnan ,Roger Moore,Sean Connery.... Daniel Craig movies are good but old ones🥴
he was expecting something that wasn't lame.
Pierce Brosnan bond was the best bond. God those movies were awesome. And the video games? Top tier.
Even the worst movie of his run Die Another Day is a goofy mess that is highly entertaining to watch. I loved Craig Era but Specter might be the actual worst Bond film ever made, it's just plain bad and boring.
Only GoldenEye was good. The rest of his bond movies were garbage.
@@darkhoboI just watched all the pre-Craig Bond films for the first time, and I found Goldeneye one of the worst ones, only above Die Another Day.
Brosnan was wooden as fuck in that film, so all the relationships and his dynamic with 006 fell super flat to me. I also couldn't buy Bean as the villain for some reason, he felt more like a henchman. The hacker guy is probably the worst and most annoying character in film history for me. The pacing and dialogue were also atrocious. Overall, I found TND the most enjoyable of the Brosnan era.
I loved brosnan as bond he had the right look and charisma but only goldeneye was good the rest were kinda bad tomorrow never dies was ok the world is not enough was cool but die another die was terrible
@@cujofire594golden eye was absolutely one of his worst films, no relationships between the characters, wooden acting, bad dialogue and pacing, a villain with no character, honestly, just a complete mess of a movie
Goldeneye was one of the best bonds
*THE best bond.
And Goldfinger!
The 90s James Bond was always my favorite
It was really peak Bond. Had the action of the modern movies, while keeping the gadgets and just enough camp of the older ones.
I AM INVICIBLE!
Ejector Seat, You're Joking, As Q, I Never Joke About My Work,Bond.
He only clicked it twice before he put it back in his pocket?
No thrice
You can’t tell but he clicked it when he grabs it from him
I’d say it’s more likely that 1 click is the actual mechanism so you have the time to stop the fuse
"I am invincible!"
Explodes
I miss the days when Bond films were fun.
They don't make movies like they used to. They used to take their time to create the attention to detail, the characters, classic lines. Most newer movies fail to keep me interested in the slightest.
its formulaic junk designed to get a profit with no risk taking, and it all contains woke chinese propaganda.@@99Eternal
Yeah get use to that. Too much pandering and playing it safe nowadays. That's with any movie and especially old franchises.
Hear hear!
Lol, bond is already dead.
This is the legacy of the Bourne movies. They were so successful that the 007 franchise thought that's what audiences want. The gadgets were part of the charm!
The signature gun (detects finger prints) was already used in License to Kill (disguised as a camera). It was a terrible gadget then and here. Only useful if the enemy steals your weapon and points it at you. Plus, doesn’t Bond wear gloves later in this movie? An exploding pen on the other hand is awesome (what could go wrong!)
I "clicky clicky" my pen all the time. As long as I keep count I'm good. Ehhh?
also the finger print pistol spoiled a fight scene because the viewer instantly knows what will happen in a upcoming fight
Old Q>new Q
Goldeneye was probaby my favourite Bond film by far.
I did like both movie and game of goldeneye and the world is not enough. But if I have to choose favorite bond game it would be goldeneye can't beat the classic on N64
It has a nice cold war grit to it.
this man speaks the true true@@Kragnard
And Pierce Brosnan the best Bond by far... come at me
@@andreasfenrir1080 No way!! I vote Sean Connery. I really liked all of them even Roger Moore and Timothy Dalton. Of course I didn't care for the one time guy whose name I tend to forget.
Pierce Brosnan will always be my favourite Bond. I, to this day, don't think anyone else suited that roll as perfectly as him.
Edit: love to see people giving some different opinions and why they feel that way. I'll put this out there, I'm in no way undercutting any other Actor to play Bond I think they all did wonderful. Brosnan just hit all the right checkmarks and I'm sure the N64 games played a part in my preference.
Yesh but hwhat about Sean Connery
@matan6737 never cared for his movies personally. But granted he was far before my era
Timothy Dalton is my bond
As a big fan of the books, I would say Timothy Dalton embodied what I feel is the "truest" Bond.
Don't get me wrong, Brosnan's was no slouch, either, but there was just something about Dalton's portrayal that was more real. Its a shame he only got 2 movies.
Even though I grew up with Brosman. Sean Connery is my favorite 007, Micheal Myers is my second favorite ifykyk@matan6737
Brosnan had the best looks and charisma - I was shocked when they announced Craig back then - he looked like a bad bond villain's henchman at best(still does)... but boy what a bond Craig turned out to be with THOSE looks, unbelievable and brave casting👌
"We don't really go in for that anymore"
"Shame."
