Just gonna point this out: The intro will melt you. Seriously... Adele's best performance, right there.

I will give you my frank opinion on the matter.

The fact that they spent the opening credits - a good f***ing four minutes- in picturing psychedelic perceptions of the death.

[spoiler='Spoiler']Only to just have him casually be alive right after the credits are done, was a big bird to the face. It was unappealing to say the least.[/spoiler]

Could you do us all a favor and restrict your proliferating language skills though? As much as he may or may not deserve it, I figure you shouldn't publicly insult him if he is what you say he is.

^This and . . .

While it is true that after the credits and having seen Bond get shot, he is alive and well. What did you guys expect? Them to kill him in the first few minutes of the movie? LOL no. But they didn't just have him "casually appear unharmed" or anything like you said Mugendramon. In fact I'm fairly certain you missed a few things that showed there was quite a long time skip from the credits to when you see Bond again. For starters not only did M16 already have a funeral for him but they had sold all of his possessions. That takes time. I'd say there was at least a month or two of time that had passed at least

Screw spoilering everything.

I'm not talking about explanations. I'm talking about the fact that the opening told us he died then and there.

And the next few seconds said the opposite.

And all was crap.

My guess is the island he wound up on had something to do with his "resurrection". Probably healed him with remedies and let him crash at their place to rehabilitate.

[color=#0000CD]Nothing coming out soon I care for. I still want to see Ted, The Campaign, and Wreck it Ralph though.[/color]

Funny you mentioned Ted, I rewatched it last night. Funny movie.
And funny you mention Campaign, I rewatched it last weekend. Funny movie.
Saw Ralph over break, okay movie I guess.

My friend told me he loved Lincoln, though he's big into politics in the first place, so that might have something to do with it.

You know Daniel Day-Lewis is one of those method actors? Regardless of the movie, I'm betting he did a stellar performance as Abe.

You are completely missing what I'm saying.

THE EXPLANATION TO IT DOESN'T MATTER.

WHAT MATTERS IS THE FACT THAT HIS DEATH LASTED FOR A GOOD TWO MINUTES AFTER THE OPENING WAS OVER.

Did anyone read what I put down? You had to be crazy to think they were actually going to [i]kill[/i] Bond. It is the same thing as when DC killed Superman and then Batman . . . they weren't actually doing it but only made it look like it.
[/quote]

Jake. Timeskip or no timeskip.

My point. Is that. They made a fuss. They built up suspense. FOR. F***ING. NOTHING.

Well duh that is what they planned on. Everyone was going to go see the movie to see if they actually would kill Bond and if they did how they did it. Hell Superman's death was an entire years worth of comics that culminated in the death issue which sold over a million copies. It wasn't that people were reading it for the hell of it, but people who had never read a comic book before was picking them up to see if they were going to kill Superman. It is all ploy and propaganda to actually get you to go see the movie so they get more money.

Don't get so upset over clever PR

What the [i]hell?[/i]

Propaganda? I didn't see any of that. I went to watch the movie because dad told me. I was expecting generic shootouts when I got in.

I saw him die. I got my hopes up for a twisted movies.

Bam. Alive.

Buzzkiller.

I believe what Blind is tyring to say is that the suprise of Bond coming back fizzled because it was 2 minutes after the credits expressing his death.

If you kill a main off to then bring em back 5 minutes later, the death no longer carries any meaning.

That I can agree with, though it didn't bother me that much. Can't really have a Bond movie without Bond. But I see where you are coming from now . . .
