James Bond not so tough

[Scoop 0]

Pierce Brosnan has every sympathy for new Bond Daniel Craig after his first 007 stunt went wrong.

Craig had his teeth knocked out during a fight scene for the movie Casino Royale.

Brosnan said he knew just how dangerous playing the superspy can be.

"I got stitched up and sewn up a few times, it just didn't get in the papers," he said at the UK premiere of his new film The Matador.

"I had my face sliced open by a stuntman. I had a knee injury. You get twisted some way or another if you throw yourself into it. There's going to be mishaps."

This is Daniel Craig, the guy who plays James Bond but is anti-gun?


Okay, when I stop laughing, I'll comment further. Right now it's too hard to have sympathy through the chuckles!

Are you kidding?

No he isn't. Let's be honest... America's equivalent to James Bond; Maxwell Smart, was never afraid of guns.

Not really... Napoleon Solo workes for The UN! He also had Ilya Kuryakin (a Russian played by an Englishman) along to "curb his excessive Americanism". It shows in the little things, like Solo's use of a Walther P-38 Kurz.

So we're looking for an American, working for an American Intelligence agency, without a partner. It really HAS to be Maxwell Smart in "Get Smart".

It's been a while since I've seen any episodes of the fine series, but didn't Maxwell have Agent 99 to help him out most of the time?

Well, even Maxwell Smart had Agent 99.

So with that stipulation out of the way, what about the dude/dudes from the Impossible Mission Force?

Maxwell smart needed Agent 99 to keep him straight.

Bond also has female help & fun with them at the same time as yet another example of British Superiority.

In reality, Bond would have a mouth full of rotten, crooked, discolored and oddly long teeth,
and a prick that had rotted down to a blistered stump before 1970.

And by now, given that he'd be over 90, he'd be lying in his nursing home, senile & toothless, murmuring "It was worth it... It was worth it... It was worth it...

Of course you realize that made them pussies, right?

Err... Yes. Absolutely. Compared to The IMF, the guys on The "A"-Team, with their welding steel plates onto cars regardless of weight & handling before going in with all guns blazing, expending thousands of rounds of ammunition and not hitting anyone or anything was much more believably American.

Yeah... I can see how 5,000+ rounds of 7.62mm ammo fired for one baddie slightly bruised while jumping over a bale of hay IS "The American Way"!

So... You're suggesting that the REAL danger with Americans lies in their use of Large-Caliber-Vegetables!?


Hmmm... Thinking about it.... "Dangerous-Big-Bore-American-Cabbages" works on several levels!
