Where the hell did that come from?
Try saying with a smile next time, or stop assuming you understand my opinion based on a couple of my posts.
As for "going with the flow, dude" that is exactly what I am advocating, if you would bother to read what I wrote before: Eon doesn't care about continuity, so why should we? Next time I want a lecture I'll ask for it.
Okay... where to begin?
First of all, I didn't say it with a smile because I was serious. Second, I thought that was the whole reason for posting: to make your opinion known. If your opinion doesn't coherently come through in your post, then maybe you aren't communicating effectively. (?) My post was not a personal attack on you. I was simply stating my opinion (hence the post I made). In a nutshell, I was saying you can't expect to have the same exact Bond each and every time after all these years and after 20+ movies. (Was Moore's Bond exactly like Connery's? Was Dalton's exactly like Moore's? The answer here is an unequivical no.) Another thing to keep in mind is that Bond changes with the times. It's called keeping up to date. Otherwise, Bond grows stagnant and stale. This probably accounts for Bond now wearing Italian suits, wearing a different watch, knowing Wade AND Leiter (who said it was "instead of"?), and not smoking cigarettes (although he does smoke a cigar in DAD). The point I got from your post which I quoted is that you are dissatisfied with the level of continuity within the films (especially with the Brosnan Bonds). I was simply pointing out how there is no way such a high standard can be achieved for such a long period of time. If minute details like who he knows, what his past experiences are, and what he wears is of the highest priority for you, then it will probably drive you insane when you notice the lack of continuity througout the years.
Lecture over.
