Why do they keep trying to retcon the Bond series so that it's always taking place in modern times? A big part of why James Bond is interesting as a spy are the limitations of the technology of his time.
Wouldn't you rather see the next series of Bond movies set as a period piece during the cold war with cold war era technology?
Angel Martinez
Man from uncle basically did that and it was a great Bond movie
Jonathan Scott
Yeah, you keep telling them how to make billion dollar movies
Nathan Lee
No I would not. Go watch that Man from UNCLE pos.
Dominic Brown
uncle was boring as shit
Wyatt Peterson
Kill yourself 90's born faggot
John Lopez
Fleming wrote Bond as taking place in his own time. It's a middle-age guy power fantasy for contemporary middle-age guys.
Also, they couldn't sell watches, suits, phones and cars as well if it was set in the 50's.
Isaac Wright
Enjoyed that movie.
Sony wouldn't be able to do product placement then
John Thompson
This you'd have to be literally braindead to enjoy that tripe
Ryan Nelson
>Wouldn't you rather see the next series of Bond movies set as a period piece during the cold war with cold war era technology? Yes only because I think current technology is going to look really shitty a few years from now

>as a spy are the limitations of the technology of his time.
james bond is literally all about his hi-tech gadgets. its a key ingredient in all the films. wtf are you on m8?
John Sanchez
Turd literally made me cringe
Grayson Smith
this
like half the films are him using advanced tech from q
Easton Cooper
>Also, they couldn't sell watches, suits, phones and cars as well if it was set in the 50's.
Absolutely this.
The only reason the series will never be good again is the fact that they want that ad money.
That's why we'll never have a proper Flemming based, Broccoli directed Bond again.
Caleb Perez
Broccoli never directed, he produced. And he's kept from work by having been dead for twenty-five years.
Evan Hughes
The insecure brand-name faggot angle which has always been a big part of Bond would be impeded if it were all vintage stuff. But people have already said this.
Landon Martinez
I'd love to see it done in the 50's era, all practical. But not Man from UNCLE style. More stylized retro futuristic.
Hudson Thompson
WAS IT FUCK, it was awful.
Carson Powell
but it's not set in the future
what
Jackson Reed
No. That's what Bond is, he's a modern spy. If you don't want a modern spy, don't watch Bond.
Leo White
I meant a film in the spirit of what he would have produced.
Chase Lopez
Not really sure of what are you talking about. Cannot think of a "Broccoli standard" production. I mean, it was the same guy who produced Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, From Russia With Love or A View To A Kill.
If anything Spectre seemed more "classic Bond", than Casino Royale, and we all know how it turned out.
Jaxon Scott
>him using advanced tech from q Yeah, like Skyfall where q gave him a gun and joked that gadgets are stupid.
Austin Lopez
I don't care if it's in 60s or 2010s, I just want to know HOW THE FUCK DOES THIS GUY CHANGE FACE AND HE IS LIKE 40 IN 1963 AND 20 IN 2006
Jace Mitchell
Ah, cool.
Don't butt in, and don't talk shite - you know what he means.
Brayden White
Unfunny Reddit trash
Chase Adams
James Bond is a codename. The original Sean Connery one is probably retired in universe.
Alexander Lopez
He's like a god damned rapper at this point with all the aka's
>They call me Lil Bond >aka Da Blow Seven >aka Dat nigga wit da sony Erickson
Justin Fisher
don't make me link that calvin dyson video
Hudson Clark
>A big part of why James Bond is interesting as a spy are the limitations of the technology of his time.
That's the dumbest and most completely wrong thing anyone has ever typed on this board. Every single James Bond movie has featured technology that was AHEAD of the current time in which the movie was made. OP, you are an mentally deficient idiot-child of the highest calibre.
