I was one of the people ticked about the new Bond(more mad about the way they treated Brosnan really) when it was anounced a last year, but this trailer...this looks good!
No stupid gadgets, just guns, fists, a knife and cars. Kick ass! I'm in.
IMDB.com doesn't even list a 'Q'

Yeah, this Bond film doesn't feel as high brow as the usual fare. It feels like they have gotten back to basics, which makes sense if this movie is suppose to be the "origin" episode.

This is suppose to be a prequel sort of Bond movie, right? Q didn't appear until From Russia with Love. In Dr. No a representative from Q labs replaces Bond's gun with a PPK, but that's about it.

I'm not really expecting much from this film. Regardless of who plays Bond, the fact of the matter is that its still produced by the Broccoli family and directed by Martin Campbell who has demonstrated that, at best, he's competent but not particularly exciting.

Yeah, we won't see true new life breathed into this franchise until the Broccollis let go of it...

How are they holding it back? I don't know much background on this.
 Dear, sweet Harley Kwink...I'm madly in love with you. Marry me! We can go to Canadia. Or Boston or something. It'll be grand...You know the cookies are a given. They are ALWAYS a given. You could dump me tomorrow and you'd still get the cookies. Boston..shit, wherever dyke weddings were legalized. And where better to rub their little piggie noses in how bad they suck than right on their doorstep? What are they gonna do? Be jealous of you? Stare furiously at your tah-tahs? Not willingly give you cookies, but instead begrudgingly give you their cookies? Woman, time to wake up to the powers you wield - Uschi

If Beardguy were here he'd say, "I like broccoli with cheese sauce or just some butter." And then Rex would say, "Fuck off faggot", but what Rex would mean is, "I like YOU with cheese sauce, Beardguy!" Because Rex loves him some Beardguy.

That is a grotesque mental image.
Actually, this is the first Bond flic I've wanted to see in the theaters in a very long time.
Shit, might be the first one ever.
Pierce Brosnan's Bond always came off too... arcade-like. As if you were watching someone ELSE play a video game. It was almost cartoony.

They're against allowing the Bond concept to branch out, expand, and evolve. For example, Brosnan had alot of cool, interesting, and new ideas that would help Bond become something more than a caricature of itself. He wanted to make it more serious, more dirty, more sexy, and overall, more real. He cited that using the same format for the character over the years has diluted much of the fun and edge of the concept. The guy kills people! He wanted to show that this isn't fake, or fun, or easy. He wanted to bring an air of realism to the world of spy games and secret agents that is sorely lacking in the franchise. He wanted to eliminate alot of the "witty catchphrases" used in there, that have degenerated into lame puns over the years. He wanted to take away the gadgets, and have Bond use real-world methods, as well as his own brains, to take on the bad guys. He wanted to loose some of the "pretty-boy" imagery Bond is known for.
The most he ever got out of all of this was when Bond was shown being captured, and tortured for a few months in that last movie. Of course, the status quo was maintained by the end, and that really bothered him. It was a factor in why the Broccollis dropped him.
You can see they're trying to do some of this in the new film, with the lack of gadgets and the like. Of course, instead of pushing forward, like he wanted (and as they should), they're simply wussing out and doing a "prequel"....

I, myself, like some of the gadgets. At least the ones that aren't stupid (like the invisible car). I also like the idea of Bond movies being sort of fun and iconic.
But, yeah, its highly unlikely that the same people who, basically, fired Brosnan for wanting to take the franchise in a more gritty direction will really take the franchise in that direction now.
