Why woman suddenly like to watch James Bond films?

idk, but my mom grew up watching them because she was interested in spy novels. that's how i got into them.

>>83246906
wtf

you literally don't see his legs, and by his core and obliques I'm pretty sure he squats/deadlifts decently

Women have always watched it for sexy Bond

>>83246858

Bond popularity sky rocketed because of Pierce Brosnan and not because he was most amazing actor but because he looked good to women.

Golden Eye.

by 'skyrocketed' do you mean 'returned back to previous ballpark'?

Was there an actual reason why he was in the water? Wasn't he looking for that dude and then out of nowhere

>well fuck it no sense letting this go to waste

It's like being on an important mission but going to the gym in the middle.

>>83249224

No, I mean create brand recognition. Bond wasn't that popular in states before Golden Eye, it also helped to have a media push across many platforms.

It might have been super popular in britain but there wasn't a big media push in the states before Golden Eye.

Just because older films are revered doesn't mean it dropped an ounce of influence here.

All films before hand were mid-range films that were popular for a time but then disappeared, no different than most capeflicks now.

Lasting recognition is hard to achieve.

>>83250333

Your own statistics prove my point, it was very small impact on movie market. I never said it wasn't popular world wide, but like most things british, especially dredd, it just doesn't take hold here.

I said golden eye had an impact here in US. I'm sure bond was popular world wide.

Skyfall is by far one of the best Bond movies. I did really enjoy Spectre too if only Blofeld had better motivation otherwise thank God for Mendes being the director of these last 2 because he truly fixed up the dreadful mess that Foster made with his cut of Quantum of Solace.

>>83250390
good question. Combination of these :

1, it was the 50th anniversary (pretty much to the day, October 1962 - October 2012)
2, the Queen had her Diamond Jubilee that year, so all year long in 2012 we'd had lots of British hype and memorabilia. For example I remember all year long Tesco decked out all their food products that year with Union Jacks on them. It was pretty big hype.
3, The London 2012 Olympics had just happened (and on top of the already huge British hype) for the opening ceremony, they had a stunt where it appeared that 007 parachuted the Queen into the Olympic Stadium. The footage on TV had a little teaser clip of Skyfall, the film about to come out. This increased anticipation more.
4, There had been 4 years since the last film, 2008's Quantum of Solace. For the Bond franchise this is a fairly large gap, it's usually 1 or 2 years. Anticipation had been cranked up, Bond was going to come home, rumours of a major character dying, etc.
5, Daniel Craig's gritty, modern Bond was becoming more popular with critics, who saw it as a good reaction to the popularity of the 21st century's new superspy : Also with the initials J.B., Jason Bourne and his grittiness were order of the day. Even though Timothy Dalton had done the same thing in the 80s, audiences weren't ready for it then. Critics went on about it and the public began to believe it.
6, The series had been in the doldrums for a while and even if it had been pish it would have had big hype, cos theres a part of us doesn't want to see Bond go.
007, Films just make more money these days. The world's population is bigger, more people go to the cinema, movies make more money -- even with inflation taken into account movies nowadays make more money, in real terms. Look at the 10 top grossing films of all time. More than half of them are from the last 5 years.

A combination of all these factors make Skyfall a big hit. (Even though the film is crap)

One of the best fight scenes ever. Style and substance over action

Someone explain to me what's wrong with Craig as Bond? I genuinely don't get what's wrong with him. He does whatever he wants, fucks women and has plot armor out the ass. Why do people dislike him?

>>83251745
Does he age at all? DS9 was like almost 20 years ago.

>>83252564
Someone in the last Bond thread posted a link where Craig confirms he's coming back for 1 more, but it was an 11 minute interview so I didn't watch it.

>>83252608
I don't really know if the fight scene had as much impact of the movie being a hit, than the suggestions I made.

another big factor was Adele singing the title track. She was possibly the biggest music star in the world in 2010/11/12, and it was something of a coup to get her on board singing it.

Besides, that fight is shit compared to
>From Russia With Love
train fight with Robert Shaw
>Jason Bourne (2016)
Fight in car park with French dude
>Lord of the Rings
final fight scene with Gollum

there's 3 better fights just off the top of my dome, bud.

So he's a lying piece of shit. He said he'd rather slit his arms open than play Bond again.

Guess he's desperate for dat dere Bond cash.

>>83252751
So people dislike him because he is too serious? Is that it?

>>83252860
Watch this
>>83252697
The interviewer brings up his "slashing his wrists" interview and Craig responds with he was feeling very tired with making Bond then but he feels better now and wants to make another

>>83252877
That and some don't like a blonde Bond

>>83252782
Once again you miss the point.

I am stating reasons why the film was a success financially.
Note that most of my reasons are external, contextual reasons such as public opinion at that time, framing the history of the 007 franchise and were 2012 fitted into it, etc.

The fight scene being good , or who directed it, are reasons why the film itself is good, but not why it would be a financial success.

I guarantee you that 99 % of people who went to see Skyfall and made it a success 1, didnt go because there was a hot rumour going around there was a great fight scene and 2, didn't go because of who the director was, and couldn't tell you who Sam Mendes is from Adam anyway.

Why something is financially successful is a different story to why something is qualitatively good, you see.
Even at that, skyfall is a shit film and Mendes is a shit director.

Can someone explain why people say this fight scene is good? There's a lack of clarity and you can barely see the choreography, and even if you could it's just a standard scuffle. Is it because it's one shot and all shillouetted? Because I think kill bill did the exact same think a million times better.

Of all the fucking shitty remakes and useless franchise stuff that gets re-made over and over again, QoS actually deserves a redo.

It's a really good film ruined by editing and

They should have re-hired the same parkour guys and stunt-teams that designed the action scenes of Casino R because CR has the actions scenes that aged the best in 2 decades.
Even the revolutionnary jason bourne stuff looks weak compared to john Wick and Jack reacher (first film) but the CR stuff is 10/10 to this day.
