> Brosnan is good. Rather than get back to the Bond of the books, Brosnan sought to get back to Connery. He's not as rugged as Connery, but he's at least as suave. What I don't like is that the recent Bond movies, while terrific action flicks, don't have much more substance to the character. The more than usual level of emotional involvement he had in The World Is Not Enough was not a subplot I ever quite believed.

There was one scene in the latest Bond film, where he showed emotion that I thought was done well. The Russian babe accused him of never loving and losing, and having a cold heart blah blah, and Brosnan gets this look on his face. The clip brought up, in my mind, Bond's dead wife. But he didn't say anything or cry or bit his lip, he just stared at the woman. I thought that bit was really cool.
