From the producer of 'Punisher: Dirty Laundry' and 'Power/Rangers' comes a quirky little James Bond animation which deals with Sean Connery's 007 and what troubles he faces after being forced to retire from the Secret Service...

That was interesting. I could actually see the Bond end up like this. He would try the retired squire bit for awhile, then slowly go crazy.

The movie Bond? I don't know. Especially Seam Connery. I think it would have been more effective if they used a more generic looking Bond.

Not my cup of tea at all.  This is the same guy who recently did a "Power Rangers" fan film that was just as bleak and mean-spirited.  I'm not a "Rangers" fan, but I found it distasteful, and this is pretty much in the same mold (maybe I'd have liked this better if I hadn't seen the other first).

 

Basically this guy comes off like a suburban teenager who dresses in all black and goes on about how horrible the world is, wallowing in nihilism. (I was there myself once).

 

I think it's telling that when Deadline asks him whether he thinks he'll ever get approval/cooperation from Eon to go beyond this "animated storyboard" stage, he basically says, who cares?  It's his "first amendment right" to exploit other people's intellectual property.  Frankly, if this guy is older than 13, it's another black eye to the American education system.

The first part, the 'PTS', was fun.
