Okay.

[TVF @TuranFiratli]

@ScenestheticHQ @DiscussingFilm @GQMagazine Eh, you’re just describing the last third of The Living Daylights

[TVF @TuranFiratli]

@NewsyOhio18235 Dude, I really like the novels but Bond is quite foolhardy, often walking into completely avoidable traps. There’s a moment in almost every book I’ve read where I went: "Come on, man."

[TVF @TuranFiratli]

@NewsyOhio18235 I think Casino Royale is an all timer, QoS is overhated and Skyfall is overrated. NTtD has its moments.
But Spectre is the worst. It feels very much like an AI generated Bond film before AI was even a thing. It regurgitates all the tropes,but without any charm or heart.

@SpyHards It really isn’t. Spectre is so much worse.

[TVF @TuranFiratli]

@G0ffThew You were late on Iruma-kun though.

[TVF @TuranFiratli]

@Zenrotwo They promised that they wouldn't.

[TVF @TuranFiratli]

@DisussingFilms @darkdefective I’m not married to the Gunn era, but I was intrigued to see where it was going. I guess "Man of Tomorrow" will decide how broken up I’ll feel about its passing.

[TVF @TuranFiratli]

@KungFuMan316 This is probably down to a mix of the Ellisons jackbooted politics, but they had Supergirl as an excuse. So basically, Tom King is still a valuable government asset.

[TVF @TuranFiratli]

@Movie_madness80 The thing about Bond is that he can actually be incredibly pedantic and passive aggressive about shit. And that is a feature that Hoult has down to a T.

[TVF @TuranFiratli]

@somefilmstudies The issue with the Craig movies following Qos is the utter bloat. Nothing is left for the audience to intuit that can’t be litigated in a 10 minute scene. A Bond movie shouldn’t scratch 3 hours. It kills the pacing.

[TVF @TuranFiratli]

@Stevie_BG @trevorbaxendale Dad is trashy but not as boring as Thunderball gets.
Octopussy is occasionally embarrassing, but not as low energy as The Man with the Golden Gun. And QoS is mercifully short and has at least a few memorable moments compared the utter slog that is Spectre.

[TVF @TuranFiratli]

@G0ffThew Does the English language really have no secular way of thanking for food and wishing everybody a good meal?

[TVF @TuranFiratli]

@strangeharbors He’d have more fun playing the baddie, for sure.

[TVF @TuranFiratli]

@GunnerDobbins Logan be like: "Yeah, I’ll remember that if I ever wind up supervising a concentration camp."

[TVF @TuranFiratli]

@Movie_madness80 I mean, you have to have certain level of charisma and be able to pull off letting your humanity shine through a thick layer of ironic detachment. Which is why guys like Cavill or Worthington never would have cut it.

[TVF @TuranFiratli]

@Movie_madness80 Isn’t that just Vesper saying: "He looks a little like that one actor…" wouldn’t exactly call that gospel.

[TVF @TuranFiratli]

@LynchianTimes Brosnan was a little too smooth and Craig a little too rough. Dalton was the closest to my ideal Bond. He had that hawk-like quality.

[TVF @TuranFiratli]

@Anton_Zimsky Funny, cause my take is that I just can't see him as attractive. Everything about his face is a bit weirdly proportioned. Like, at least pin his ears back.

[TVF @TuranFiratli]

@CinemaTweets1 I’d really like a conventionally attractive Bond again in my lifetime. Nothing against Turner in general but I’m really not into his face, at all.
