    <p>The story behind the line is quite good too. They had nothing against Damon, it's just that the Damon marionette they received was fucked up and looked retarded.</p>

    <p>I didn't like the Brosnan Bonds either, Some of the Roger Moore ones were ridiculously cheesy but they did introduce some iconic bad guys, stunning locations, hot chicks, complicated plots ( ok I made that up ) and cool theme songs. What's not to like ?</p>

    <p>The Craig Bonds definitely paid homage to Bourne.....that's a more polite way of saying they blatantly stole from them.</p>

    <p>Sadly, it's never had a decent DVD release (Aspect ratio, cuts).</p>

    She did it as way to show the what life was really like for a hooker after Pretty woman was such a huge hit . That and crash are the only films I can remember seeing her in .

    <p>Yeah, Ken Russell adapted a playwright's piece, about his time driving around a hooker in London, as a response to Pretty Woman.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>See also Donald Cammell's original script for <em>Pretty Woman</em>, <em>3000</em>.</p>

    <p>Timothy Dalton was apparently the closest to the literary Bond in how he acted while George Lazenby ( I really liked his only flick ) looked the most like how Fleming envisaged him ( in the fights and action scenes he was the best of any of them ) </p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Roger Moore freely admits to having too much fun with the flicks but I still find them extremely entertaining even if I do take jeggas criticisms on board.</p>

    <p>Pierce Brosnan as Bond were almost parody films IMO, with him an unconvincing in the role, which is a shame as I have seen him in a couple post-Bond and he is believable as that kind of character.</p>

    <p>You have to leave Golden Eye from that discussion, it's probably one of the best Bonds ever made and rebooted the series long before Craig's run. And they made the Nintendo 64 game from it which was awesome.</p>

    <p>With regards to the Batman series I've gotta say that dying certainly helps a career no end......the spoof fest over Heath Ledgers "terrifying" portrayal of the joker was laughable and cringeworthy at best. Tom Hardy as Bane fucken shat all over him and you never even saw his whole face ! he was intimidating as hell in that movie.</p>
    <p> </p>
    <p>Agree Neps, Dark Knight was absolutely awesome and they steadily got worse.</p>
