A major shakeup happens to the Bond series. Pierce Brosnan leaves the role of 007 in an acrimonious departure, the rights to Ian Fleming's first Bond novel Casino Royale finds its way into the hands of EON and a new actor by the name of Daniel Craig is cast as the new James Bond to a very pessimistic public.
This is part one of my review of Casino Royale that was meant to follow 'The Craig Reconstruction Intro'. Initially this project was done several years ago and I wasn't able to post it on my RUclips channel. After going back and doing some re-editing, cutting and tweaking of it to make it acceptable to RUclips it's finally made its way to my channel - at least for now.

I can't understand why anyone would thumbs down any of your exceedingly well produced youtube videos . Every one I have watched and enjoyed thoroughly has always been concise , well written , edited and impeccably narrated .. Some folk just don't understand the length of time these type of videos take to make .. All the best !! AND THUMBS UP !!!
B.L Thackrey maybe they like Pierce. It’s clear haphazard does not.
really you dont ha ha ha...this guy wants everyone to be his vision.just listen between the lines .he speaks well but has no idea of formula
"bros" ?
Not doubt that Daniel Craig is the Bond of our time but Pierce Brosnan was the perfect Bond of his time and he really brought the Bond series back to life. And the åroduction was steady, not like today. The span since Spectre will cripple the next Bond movie.
Think the Craig years are very well done.
First starting by reconstructing Bond as a diamond in the rough, with all the Bond villains and gadgets.
Bond is then deconstructed back to just Man vs. Nature.
In essence, it was a three film re-boot.
Dude, i have been saying for years that Dalton was my favorite Bond portrayal (prior to Craig). Everybody always told me i was nuts to think so, that he was terrible, that nobody liked him in that role .... but watching this now makes me feel vindicated. Dalton was trying to bring what Craig brought to the franchise decades ago. I guess audiences or production houses just weren't ready for that REAL Bond then.
Despite Brosnan's films getting sillier, I actually think his performance got harder edged as he settled in. Brosnan's Bond could be pretty harsh when needed.
Most of the people that bash him are Craig fanboys. Brosnans games kicked ass, while Craig's were average especially that COD clone GoldenEye Wii/Reloaded.
Brosnnan was a good bond. He got better but the movies got worse.
I don't see it. I mean he did manage to reveal more of his character, but that's what you'd expect to happen with more films. Unfortunately, his take on Bond was generic and hence forgettable, especially considering he appeared in 4 films, all of which were popular and successful, yet I still feel he's the Bond that I "know" the least. Perhaps this was the fault of the writers and producers who sidelined characterization in favor of action, but Brosnan didn't seem unhappy and didn't complain/object when he had the chance.
He had one great film, which fortunately for him was his first, opening his tenure with a success and another which is enjoyable enough, but they got progressively worse and his third and fourth outings were especially weak.
@@tank3143 007 legends was so disappointing 😞
@@tank3143 most of the people who bash him are Connery fans like me. He sucked balls.
They should have just done one more bond film with pierce Brosnan and let him go out in style with 5 James bond films under his belt !
Then we wouldn’t have gotten this amazing movie ie the best bond movie EVER
Just like Craig ultimately did in the end.
Casino Royale (2006) is the BEST James Bond movie.
woooo! I've seen all your stuff on your site, but it's nice finding it in my subscription feeds and seeing it again here on youtube!
This is one of the best Bond documentarys i've ever warched.
This one is in your top five, MHO. And you've submitted a bunch. It covers a LOT of ground, across a lot of Bond performers and behind the scenes legalities and motives of the players involved, and the whole while, the editing is, as always, excellent. You add the back ground music so perfectly. Thank you!
Very glad to hear these projects are being appreciated and enjoyed!
@@HaphazardStuff Damn YOU didn't really like Pierce Brosnan as James Bond.
As much as I prefer maybe all other Bond actors(of the Eon films) to Brosnan I think he got the short end of the stick being fired like that, for films that suffered from the script and direction, not his performace. Brosnan needed one Bond film in between of Die Another Day and Csino Royale that was more serious or at least, done in a classic Bond style, something like the Dalton films. They're unmistakeably Bond with all the tropes, but Bond's character is more serious. Brosnan's Bond films felt more like Bond parodies than sincere Bond films
Daniel Craig has the 2 BEST James Bond movies Casino Royale and Skyfall.
18:50 Does anyone know if Brosnan has ever read Fleming's Bond novels? Either before, during or after his time as 007? Rather curious about that myself.
Dude....you are hands down the most thorough, entertaining and knowledgeable reviewer I have come across for the 007 films. This is exceptional work. I have a blog page up where I occasionally cover movie reviews and thanks to you I'm now inspired to cover Bond
Just wanted to say that your videos are excellent, and quite professionally done. It really feels better than most of the “official” James Bond documentaries and you don’t have access to 1/10th of the material they have. Excellent jon
Can't wait for your skyfall review!
I have to admit, im a fan of your work. Continue the good job.
Great video--I did not dislike Brosnan's as Bond, though I did not care for the movies. They felt too influenced by the Mission Impossible movies and kept trying to go for bigger affects drawing attention away from one of the best characters ever created.
Bond Producers was influenced by a tread of 2 successful movies; Batman Begins and Jason Borne - The Borne Identity. These two movies starts from the beginning of how main character became who they are. They both have Bond style look and realistic main human character with flaws. Thus, Casino Royale from the original book by Ian Fleming starts how younger James Bond got to be 007 with extreme learning curves. The other part was Bronson's Bond 4 movies were apparently over-the-top action movies making Bond character compare to Batman Begins and Jason Borne seems.. unreal.
Wonder who they will hack for the next one ? Austin Powers
Let's get Pierce to do everything we say and then fire him for doing poorly. sounds about right.
I think he was great, I understand some of his movies were bad but unlike Craig Brosnan had the looks and charm of the Bond in the Novels can't really say the same for Craig who's blonde and only 5'10.
Tank 314 Daniel Craig not charming? Fuck off. Lol
That's pretty much exactly what they did. They ignored his casting suggestions, director suggestions, script suggestions--which were all superior to what the producers decided to do. They dangled the carrot that he'd be doing the more realistic Bond that he wanted after DAD, then canned him.
@@tank3143 lmao Brosnan's Bond had absolutely nothing to do with the James Bond in the Ian Fleming novels. Craig and Dalton were the ones who nailed it perfectly. Craig only didn't have the look, but his version of Bond was much truer to the books than Brosnan's. It shouldn't be even compared. Brosnan had a good look like a model, however his version of Bond was sadly most of the times just silly and ridiculous. Even though it wasn't just his fault, it was very poorly. All his movies, besides Goldeneye, were absolute trash.
@@gregorsamsa2271 I'll take Brosnan with suave charisma cool and panache over Dalton and Craig and their ultra serious but ultimately dour performances
This guy knows his stuff. I love how he used the fistful of dollars song playing in the background of Tarantino’s hypothetical version. Only a hard core movie guy would know that’s one of his favorite movies.
Awesome work mate, love the deep analysis. Agree on everything said so far.
You are the Mr. Plinket of Bond reviews!
Dat editing, dat research and dat clarity is some impeccable shit, brother. Your passion for Jimmy B is fucking incredible, G
yeah do more please...love these Bond reviews ;-)
2020 and the opening still cracks me up
One of the best video review ever..
Excellent analysis.
I dig your channel so dope!!!
It was not brosnans fault that Die another day was a mess. Blame the director and producer..
Kishen Abeyratne But he did star in it and he could have walked away since he had already completed his initial three film contract and was already being hired on a film by film basis. Not his fault since he wasn't one of the filmmakers, but he knew what he was getting himself into. Money talks.
Love your videos. Please do more ;-)
Really loved the bronsan period. Also the craig period.
Being popular and making a ton of money are no argument to keep Brosnan. He was not sufficiently « Bond »
...but one of the things that your commentary fails to mention is Michael G. Wilson's part in turning the Bond franchise into what it became just before and then after Cubby died, and the words you used describe it very well: overboard, over the top, silly, idiotic and just plain dumb. And, in Barbara's attempts to make right what Michael made wrong, advocated a paradigm shift in order to morf the character (and by the way, unnecessarily) into a Jason Bourne competitor at the box office. Plus, and whether you know it or not, you're not considering how Wilson's ego and his need to be the "star" and the attention-getter made it very hard for any Bond (Brosnan or otherwise) to succeed. Lastly, remember that neither Daniel or Pierce, Timothy or Roger contributed to or wrote any of the scripts put before them. In a nutshell, you have to understand that the people running the franchise today simply don't have what it takes, because none of them have the spirit of the author, the soul of the producer or the character of "Bond" to do it right. And, that is the great tragedy.
Pierce Brosnan was an excellent Bond.
They made Daniel Craigs Bond more emotionally vulnerable, which makes him more human.
James Bond movies have always had some science fiction and fantasy, Die another day was not the first to do so, although the special effects were a little too much.
As for Lazenby there is a whole documentary on his Bond story on netflix. Lazenby wasn't happy with the slave contract, he had to portray himself as Bond outside of the movie set and he didn't get to be himself like he wanted to, so he chose to walk away, he did express that later on in life he regretted it.
You did a good job making this video but you're kind of annoying with your criticism against all these people and their claim that they're full of themselves and arrogant.
Agree 100%
Yay!! He's back! Do a Skyfall & Spectre! Waiting for it!
Can you reupload part 2 ? Thanks.
I always figured The November Man was the his gritty Bond performance.
When will you be doing your Spectre review?
Die Another Day was excellent, especially the first half. You stated that you don't like PB. That's why this is a hatchet job.
I liked Brosnan in Goldeneye though a fact I read that Quentin Tarantino wanted to do Casino Royale but only with Brosnan and would be set in the 50's . The producers bulked mostly because Q.T. would want too much control over the film . Brosnan did save MGM by keeping Bond alive thru the 90's but the scripts were crap . From what Brosnan said about his exit as Bond was like He got a phone call saying thanks for your work but cya .
long time man
Pierce was great, but the concept, plot, script and production of his last 007 film was absurd...now Barbara Broccoli seems to be making the same mistakes again, but this time she is going WOKE, let's hope she doesn't go BROKE, as I will not be bothering with the limply titled 'No time to die'...😒
I agree. Pierce did an okay job. Just okay.
Please, reupload the second part.
I've seen an interview with Roger Moore. He was just as charming as you would expect. The reporters were obtuse and no fun at all. They are paid to be worse than awkward fanboys.
In all fairness GoldenEye and The World Is Not Enough did give us sime glimpses of a more human Bond with more depth. Not like Dalton did it but still. GoldenEye probably profited by being tailored to Dalton before Brosnan came along.
I just don´t think Craig should be given all the credit for making a more human Bond.
Sony and MGM settle outside of court and then Sony buys MGM. Outstanding strategy. They must've been playing 4 dimensional chest at that point.
I think that with the exception of Sean Connery, and now Daniel Craig, the actors who have portrayed James Bond have been too smooth looking. I can either take or leave Pierce Bronson. I just thought that the producers felt Bronson was too old to portray Bond at the beginning of his career.
Don Jones brosnan .
This has a cute little comedic beginning, and it's more than competent in it's editing, but your overall premise about "Broz" is flawed in assuming that he or any James Bond actor has a say in script or direction of story and character. And most of the questions you pose can be answered with a little more research. In fact if you had simply watched the documentary "All or Nothing" and every documentary and extras feature included in the James Bond 21 collection box set, most if not all of your questions would have been answered, and you would have seen where you got a few of your conjectures dead wrong.
Maybe I'm reading too much into the video, and making a wild, unfounded remark, but I think the narrator hates Brosnan and his Bond movies.
I get that feeling too , very biased
Why can’t Americans say ‘Craig’ properly?
Piss off mate, who are you, our dad?
John Doe
No, just someone that can say ‘Craig’ properly.

Do you expect me to say ‘Creg?’
Your view of Brosnan is insightful. Thing is, what has Brosnan ever been in since Bond that was really remarkable, where he stood out for his acting? He's often just in low-budget, poor performing films that often don't even make it to international screens nowadays. I think Bond was his first and only break (some may argue Remington Steele but that wasn't groundbreaking), and maybe he knew deep down that without Bond, his acting career was 'ok' at best. Brosnan was probably bitter because he knew he'd never reach those heights again. And this is coming from someone who really loved him as Bond, especially in GoldenEye
Brosnan's career wasn't much before Bond, owing partially to the fact that his first wife was dealing with cancer from 1987-91 and eventually died from it. But more than any of the other Bond actors, except for Connery, he's made decent movies during and after Bond. They may not have all been blockbusters, and you may not have seen them, but movies such as The Thomas Crown Affair, the Matador, Seraphim Falls, Ghostwriter, Evelyn, Love is All You Need, Tailor of Panama, among others, are all well-acted and good quality. I think he was mostly angry because he had coveted the role for so long, it was taken away from him originally in the 80's, and he really was a fan. I think he was disappointed in the decisions that the producers made during his tenure, he'd always said he wanted to make a grittier film, but he was never really given the chance.
Timothy Dalton brought excat potrail of James bond , intense, ruthless, emotional depth to d character which was a way head of time n d audience were not able to cope up .Pierce Brosnan
Did excat opposite cool , calm, charming kind of bond to d morden Era if he would have done what Dalton did . That would've been another mess .Due to lack of story line , excess CGI , competition with other spy movie was a Complet disaster
Daniel Craig steps in with completely re-start , original stunts, emotional touch , lesse gadgets ,real N believable bond because of d Same actors play d character over b over again make it kind less intense , borrowing both for the audience as well a actor who plays bond . Production team must come up with
Alternative concepts
Omg, about a half hour putting down the B? Move on!
Did bro man snub you at the airport ?
Living God yahova our souls father mother teacher everything supreme soul yahova first our souls father first living God first... we are next.. imagine how who
Sadly I feel the Jason Bourne movies (aside from The Bourne Identity & Legacy) are the shakiest, overrated movies.
@Naquin Green if I was the producer of the 007 films... I would like to make it a retro adventure film like Indiana Jones.
@Naquin Green My outline would be similar to Thunderball but without the boring underwater crap, "A mysterious mastermind steals a prototype Air Force Jet in hopes to wreak havoc by targeting the Famous landmarks of the world" With Henry Cavill as 007, Victoria Justice as the Leading lady, Julianne Hough as The Femme Fatale with Michael Fassbender and Idris Elba as the Main Villains, and I'd try to replicate the action/storytelling from GoldenEye.
36:25 Look at his arms
You just sound like an angry little boy, Pierce Brosnan was brilliant as Bond!
Tarantino is kinda arrogant.
Casino Royale was too harsh of a bond film. It was effective yet not friendly. Plus they should have gotten rid of Judy (M) too. Just made it look that they were continuing the old formula on a fresh page..
He was the best bond, but got one of the most shittiest movies.
I believe Brosnan would've been a better pick for Casino Royale. Craig didn't do it justice. He didn't make the movie, the movie made him.
Yes I agree but even as a Brosnan fan myself he's was just too old for the role. Casino Royale is supposed to be Bond's first mission as a 00.
9/11 + Jason Bourne = Daniel Craig.
I hate Tarantino
This is bull..
Over rated! Daniel Craig should been called Bourne! Not Bond.
You're right about that!!
He's just Jason Bourne with a British accent.
your making one big mistake ,bond is pure fantasy from day 1,yeah times have changed should bond now turn into a depressing grey bourne identity style without sets like dr no even had.i think not.your missing what bond movies all about.where a woman can leave the theater in love and her man walks taller.this show whatever home movie here miss,s the bond point by 50 zillion miles.its like lets turn the beatles into the eagles how boring and may i say a predictable suburban attitude.but this is your opinion and i have mine,well put together btw but i wonder if the reviewer can handle some critic back
@Dr. Mercury depth ha ha ha.yeah right and connery had no depth...can i have whatever acid your on
@Dr. Mercury disney own bond now so as for depth i think not...the latest speaks for itself
