Teaser trailer looks pretty good, though this comment on that page does have some truth to it:
QUOTE:if you cannot see the utter rip off this film is doing of the borune ultimatum you are completely blind. alot of the scenes it looks like theyve even used the same sets, let alone the style similarities. thats fine cause cause it made casino royal a much better film with the granier, grittier style. but this film seems to have taken out whole scenes from bourne.
I kind of noticed that too, the camera angles and the fight scenes did remind me of some of fight scene styles of the Bourne movies.
I don't view it as a bad thing though, borrowing from the Bourne series will only make Bond better :)
i'm sorry but the new series of bond films with daniel craig pale the bourne films. the acting, stunts and cinematography are ridiculously good. this film is simply a sedge way to the next in a hopefully long series.
I loved the new Bond movie, and I love all the Bourne movies. Comparing them against each other is like apples & oranges.
It doesn't look like the newest Bourne at all, and I don't see how you came to that conclusion given the literally second long clips. If anything, it looks more like the location is in the same area as the last bond (the Mediterranean).
best bond movie? that movie could have been cut down to under an hour if you ask me. i enjoyed the movie but to put it above other bond films is just insane. i understand that introducing a new actor as james bond takes a little time but it carried with it a sense of being stretched to fill gaps in the character development, but i am pretty sure we figured that out from the first 15 minutes of the film. this next movie should be better than casino royale but only because it should contain more action and stay away from extremely boring poker scenes. i like daniel craig as bond but i am hoping the direction this new movie takes brings back that feel of a true bond film.
I thought this was going to be a James Bond: Quantum Leap. Where Scott Bukula jumps into bonds body and has to save the world with Dean Stockwell riding sidekick. or Bond gets sent back in time and put into another persons body and has to solve their problems before he can return.
Oh god any type of Bond+Q Leap movie crossover would be pure win.
i can't think of a bond that was better. neither could you. also "even if it was one movie, then 2 hour poker movie, then 2 different movies after it."
and any movie + QLeap movie crossover would be pure win.
Guy 1: Hey, we should make a bond movie, but I have no idea what it should be about. Guy 2: We could just think of something gimmicky and roll with that. factory worker girl: I like my little pony. Guy 1: *SMACK* DON'T TALK WHILE MEN ARE TALKING. Anyways any ideas? Guy 2: What about a video game? Kids like video games. Guy 1: They did that in never say never again. Guy 2: That was just a remake of thunderball that doesn't count. Guy 1: Americans are stupid they wont understand that. Guy 2: True. How about poker. Fat ugly americans love poker. Guy 1: Good idea. Lets go smoke some opium and write the script.
/Yes, all bond movies are scripted by factory foreman in china.
his acting when he was going into "cardiac arrest" had me laughing. The action when he was chasing the guy in the beginning was kinda cool, other then that it was wicked boring. The man with the golden gun or goldeneye will always be better imo.
Anyone comparing Bond and Bourne should just shut they mouth because they are both excellent franchises and my man-crush friend Tony Gilroy is behind the Bourne films. Bond has just adapted to the times, and Bourne is the times, so if they look the same, great.
Oh, and Casino Royale was based on the original book that essentially started the Bond franchise but was never made because they couldn't get the rights to it.
Not only that, but the Casino Royale was supposed to be a sort of "fresh start" of the series. The new bond movies are supposed to be more "realistic," for lack of a better word, than the older ones. Originally, Bond was supposed to be a much darker, cynical character than the previous films portrayed him as. The action in these new movies are not going to be as "grandiose" as the previous ones - like, say, driving a tank through a city. The franchise is purportedly taking on a much more serious, darker tone, and Craig does an excellent job of staying true to Flemming's vision of Bond's character.
The Bourne Identity was good but the next two were basically just the same movie played over again with an annoying woman who can't act as the lead agent. I really hated that chick and all of the fight scenes, car chases, everything just seemed completely identical to the first movie, obviously they're going to be similar but add something new at least.
People are saying this looks like it has stuff taken from the Bourne trilogy? If anything it's the other way around. Pretty much all secret agent movies steal directly from the Bond series, Ian Flemming is the one who made that s#it popular to begin with. How many secret agent movies have you seen where a guy didn't jump from one rooftop to another, or fight a guy with a knife barehanded, or got chased by some dudes in a car, and then gave the wheel to the beautiful woman who somehow became involved in his mission so he could shoot more accurately?
No one stole anything from the Bourne trilogy because there's nothing to steal. It's all been done, and most of it was done in the Bond movies first.
all they do these days is change the location, and try to make things look prettier and more realistic. There's nothing new or original about any of these movies.
The James Bond trilogy have been around for 30+ years I don't think they would ever steal action scenes from a trilogy that has been around for maybe 5...
James Bond Quantum of Solace

WOW, ONE SECRET AGENT MOVIE TRAILER LOOKS A LITTLE LIKE ANOTHER SECRET AGENT MOVIE TRAILER?
also, the last bond was one of the best bonds IMO, even if it was one movie, then 2 hour poker movie, then 2 different movies after it.
agreed.
this one should be just as good.
Where Scott Bukula jumps into bonds body and has to save the world with Dean Stockwell riding sidekick.
or
Bond gets sent back in time and put into another persons body and has to solve their problems before he can return.
Oh god any type of Bond+Q Leap movie crossover would be pure win.

Should probably get its own thread.
