Even real casino's don't want to be associated that openly with terrorists. > The high stakes Poker Game at "Casino Royale"? Hell, terrorists who get to do such a game that openly, are immediately caught by Europol before such a Poker game starts. Only a dozin Angels of Death can spread so much death and destruction? Highly unlikely. Actually, only two years later, as the real space shuttle was sent into orbit around Earth.īut on the whole, even the more realistic Bond-films have a slightly.unrealistic "touch": But even "Moonraker" showed us events that could happen in the very near foreseeable future. At times evoking fantastical situations, but NEVER turning into sci-fi. Take in mind that Bond has always been slightly larger than life, slightly more slick, elegant and suave.than our real world. And if you really want to have a link with reality, then please follow this link: Īnd after you finished reading, take in mind that Bond has always been slightly larger than life, slightly more slick, elegant and suave.than our real world. So can't we.have that approach for once, after three down-to-earth, realistic Bond films? I'm buying it, I'm loving it that S.P.E.C.T.R.E. as a more flamboyant, larger-than-life experiment as opposed to real countries fighting with each other. HE actually created the crime syndicate S.P.E.C.T.R.E. Le Chiffre had his bleeding eye, and his (Fleming-esque) benzeen inhaler (by the way a typical 1950's esque drug, that's extinct nowadays). And that's what the Bond universe is really. Still, it was a larger-than-life interpretation of the real world. Hell, Silva even reminded me of a slightly larger-than-life Julian Assange. So you must have loved the cyber-terrorist scheme from "Skyfall" no? It evoked a lot of comparisons with Wikileaks, Richard Snowden. Ok it was fine in the 60s but in a world where real terrorists bin their phone and SIM card after one call to avoid detection does it not seem rather inane that the supposed biggest terrorist group in the world should walk around with these rings covered in stupid octoghosts or whatever they are that even the most gormless police officer (I'm looking at you San Francisco police captain from AVTAK) could spot? Like Apple of California for example, with their simple logo, who are creaming billions of $ from everyone around the world and exercising mind control. It does seem a mite stupid having a distinctive logo prominent about your person for a secret villainous operation! Unless of course the logo is carried by a front masquerading as a straight honest to goodness enterprise. I totally agree and could never understand this. Ok it was fine in the 60s but in a world where real terrorists bin their phone and SIM card after one call to avoid detection does it not seem rather inane that the supposed biggest terrorist group in the world should walk around with these rings covered in stupid octoghosts or whatever they are that even the most gormless police officer (I'm looking at you Sam Francisco police captain from AVTAK) could spot? Am I the only one who thinks that the idea of a super secret terrorist organisation walking round with rings that blatantly label them as such is just a bit too childish and Austin Powers for the gritty reboot era?
