No Time To Die (2020 Bond film)

[The Clown Prince of Crime]

With inflation adjusted, Thunderball and Goldfinger are around a bil each, depending on what article you read.

Oh good. What about the Brosnan films?

Better than half of Moore and Dalton is the worst. Yeah, surprising.

 

[Wor-Gar]

I don't know about Brosnan bringing in huge numbers. No one ever seemed too interested in Bond during that time period; seemed like a habit more than excitement.

You can see why younger people are so enamored with Craig and believe he saved a 50 year old franchise. I mean, if you grew up with aging Moore, Dalton and Brosnan as your theatrical experience of Bond then yeah, Bond was truly nothing exciting.

The Goldeneye N64 was probably the most influential and popular thing from the Brosnan era.

Ok, how about, the Craig films made the franchise relevant in the 21st century?

Like growing up with the PT.

As a 40 year old man, thank you.

I occasionally still get called ''young man'' by people who I don't think are saying it sarcastically or condescendingly so things can't be too bad yet

 

[Bravomite]

I was called young man yesterday ... I was astounded as it has been a while since the last time haha. But I did look incredibly dishevelled to the point that no actual adult man would reasonably go out looking that way I guess. It still counts though!

 

[jye4ever]

Occasionally I look homeless

I’ve had graying hair since high school, now the sides are fully gray/white like nick fury, so people generally think I’m slightly older than I am lol. Always gets compliments tho so it’s not bad.

Don't get me wrong, there's a lot to like in the Craig films -- I just think they used too much salt.

You have white wings, and you chose Nick Fury.

You could have chosen

Dr. Strange
Reed Richards
Pauly from the Sopranos
Bride of Frankenstein

but you chose Nick Fury

He was a Top 10 Favorite of mine growing up, still is. Commando/spy stuff has always appealed to me.

I had his action figure in the 90's. I didn't know much about him, but I thought he looked cool. I was not happy when SLJ showed up as Nick Fury. To this day, I still don't buy him as the character.

Same here, my friend, on all accounts. The '95 Spider-Man animated line figure is still one of my favorites, it's on my workbench at home. I actually just bought in mint-on-card one.

Need to go full white wolf like Cruise in Collateral.

 

[Stront]

Slowly working my way there...I reckon by 40 I'll be there.

I have some grey distributed throughout my whole head of hair but nowhere enough for an overall impression of grey yet. My biggest grey concentration is my chin stubble.

Same.

Yeah, I’ve got a bunch of white/gray in my facial hair. A new one today was noticing a bunch of white hair in one of my eyebrows. The BIGGEST issue with hair I’ve noticed in my 30s is the seemingly endless replication of ear hair LOL. maybe they’re wrapping around my brain....
