Hell yeah! Tarantino should be able to do a Bond "spoof" justice.

oh... but didn't we have enough of the spoof with Austin Powers, the Bean Agent movie, and then the derivatives like Agent Cody Banks, Spy Kids, et. al?
i'd like to see the treatment but still....so long as Tarantado isn't in it...

There hasn't been a good Bond film since Connery stopped being Bond.
The whole francise is exhausted. It needs to be changed or killed. Unfortunately it will likely limp every onwards.

Sounds like fun to me.
When I heard they were making a remake of the Classic Ealing comedy "The Ladykillers" I was aghast. But then I heard the Coen brothers were doing it. A good director can really make a remake (if you know what I mean) Lighten up everyone. Mr Mephisto |

this sounds good.
i'd like to see a Tarantino take on the Bond genre, because i think he'd be able to show just what a misogynistic, callous bastard Bond is deep down. i think Christian Bale would be good here as well.

Weren't the last 3 Bond movies spoofs? Seriously though, the Bond movies have degenerated into your typical action movie piles of shit. Brosnan's Bond is far to emotional. Connery and Moore were the only actors who played Bond as he was supposed to be: Mysoginistic, unphased by anything, and a quick wit. If Brosnan had just played him like his early TV character Remington Steele, he would have done just fine.
Anywho, at least in my eyes, if Taranino does a spoof of the series, it will just put the final nail in the franchise coffin. If he tries to bring it back to the Connery days, then he may just single handedly revive the series. |

Err, I don't think the article mentions Tarentino doing a spoof, only that he'd do a movie based on Casino Royale, or something similiarly character driven. When the 60's version was made it was intended to be a spoof but the original book wasn't. I dunno, Tarentino is known for off-beat films, wonder how he'd do with a bond film.. regardless of the turnout, i have little doubt it'd be far and away the best bond since goldeneye (the last three being discardable refuse action/commercials)

I said above that I couldn't put my finger on why this sits so badly with me. I think I know now:
Would this movie be a Tarrantino movie, or a Bond movie? Don't get me wrong, I haven't already made up my mind, that this film will be shit. I will certainly go see it, and hopefully I will be wrong!

Sorry, I love Tarantino and all, but he's way too trashy to do a classy Bond film. It's black and white
