I still cannot get past the chavvy shoulder roll. Yuck.

I didn't see much wrong with his stance at all to tell you the truth. It's a blend of Dalton and Moore, with a Craig supercharger under the hood.

[Royal Dalton]

The gunbarrel design's good. But the hole/circle around Craig is miles too big.

I like Craig's stance when he fires the gun. Shame the walk's too fast for the music, though.

Interesting to see that he's wearing a suit and tie. They must have filmed a few different versions of it.

When I first saw it, he was walking so fast I thought he was going to walk outside the white dot.

Getting quite tiresome now.

I cannot recall whether I liked it or not. I have filled my days with other things since.

Tell me about it. But don't do so too quickly, don't wear a tie I hadn't verified and please don't twist in a style that may be deemed as being new and cool as I won't understand it and get all upset enough to bleat on about it for months to people I can't see online.

When people have thought about something like a 20 second gunbarrel motif for longer than it took to make the entire film, we have a problem.

[Royal Dalton]

No, you have a problem. And the new one only lasts for 10 seconds, anyway.

[Lounge Lizard]

Quite a heated discussion, this. I suppose it's a karma thing, all this talk of guns. Anyone fancy to talk ceramics and pottery for a while?

[Zorin Industries]

No, you have a problem. And the new one only lasts for 10 seconds, anyway.

I rest my case.

[double o ego]

You people are unbelievable. A gunbarrel in the tradtional sense is what it is and thats what we got. Sure, there are minor differences in each but to the general audience, it all looks the same. Honestly, the cries about potentially not getting a traditional gin barrel is 1 thing but when we get it, the way some are acting, it's like someone burned your house down with your family in it.

Careful now.

The thing is, the bigger the circle is, the less time it takes to get to the middle of the frame. So the bloody thing's all over in a flash.

Consistent with the rest of the film's action then

....then the blood falls at a rate of three millimetres per second, but if you multiply that by the ratio of the projected image times the dimensions of the cinema screen you get something that....

[Royal Dalton]

Zorin, if you're not seriously interested in discussing it, you can always stay out of the thread.

[tim partridge]

Dalton,

I am glad you got what I was on about with the size of that whitey and how it affects the walking.

Just saw the gun barrel. Two words: Absolute garbage.

It goes way to fast. The gun barrel is supposed to be slow and steady, not fast and lame.

[marygoodnight]

seen it too your right, Righty.lol

[PeteNeon]

The gunbarrel was ok, but I would have preferred it if the style was exactly the same as the Brosnan one, that's the definitive gunbarrel style IMO. Thought the dots where a bit fast too.

Agreed. It's a mistake we can't enjoy about the good things of Bond.

[Righty007]

The circle that Craig is in is HUGE. MK12!

[Nicolas Suszczyk]

It's on Youtube! find it!

[The Dove]

I saw it!! and you know what...I have NO problem with how fast it goes and just love how it dissolves into the Q. I expect we'll have a slower gunbarrel for Bond 23, but for this I love it!! Just classic..

[Nicolas Suszczyk]

The blood is still awful.

[The Dove]

Oh well...it's pointless to debate the issue. I've said my piece about the gunbarrel and now will no longer discuss it and instead will pay attention to more important details..like the actuall film itself!

In a bit of a glass house there, Jim. If you find the idea of discussing the minutae of James Bond on the internet to be beneath you there's the little matter of the prefect's badge you're wearing which appears to say otherwise...
