Agreed, one minute he's acting sensitive and calm with Paris the next he's acting like a smug school-boy LHAO while pushing buttons in the BMW.

Don't forget the pain-face as well. B)

Do I embed a YT clip and risk the mods pulling it or should I just transcribe the whole scene? B)

You could kind of say the same thing about Craig, or at least CR.

Note though that I am saying could. Not should.

But he had a legit reason to be emotional in CR .And we all know this was Bond before he became the Bond we all know and love™. B)

In Die Another Day and Tomorrow Never Dies he delivers some poor dialogue, but that's mainly due to the writing. In GoldenEye and The World Is Not Enough he was pretty good in my opinion. Still he's no Roger Moore, who could make the most silly dialogue sound like a quality drama.

As you could see english is not my main language so its not my fault. all im trying to say is that Brosnan had no emotions when he loses someone that he cared for. Thats why I dont like him

If that is why you don't like him have you ever reasoned as to why?
Have you watched CR or is this pertaining only to Brozzer, as I beg to differ, he had many emotions.
Just watch him run.

Brosnan's Bond did have emotions, but they were not consistent (and he used the same facial expressions for several different emotions). When he did show emotion, he come across as sappy and un- masculine. Craig on the other hand was consistent in his emotions.

He might be carved out of wood for all that matters, although when is locking arms with his male adversaries he does show emotions. You can clearly see the man is in heat.

It's not so much that he lacks emotions or that he has too many of them, but rather that he seems incapable of smoothly shifting gears between them, at least within the tempo of the Bond films.

That bit never bothered me too much. Sure he was broken up seeing Paris dead in his hotel room, but she never got to him the way Vesper did (or for that matter, Tracy). Sure they play it up in the film that he's broken up, but this is not the first time Bond has lost someone and shrugged it off a while later.

Well, we can pretend that they just chose not to show Bond crying over Paris later on. When he got home. In his apartment. I'm sure that after the mission was over, he took a box of Kleenex, lay down on his couch, popped in his well-worn CD of Melissa Manchester's Don't Cry Out Loud, and let himself have the good weeping he needed to have. B)

I'm quite enjoying that mental image, actually . . . Don't cry out loud, Bros. Just keep it inside. Learn how to hide your feelings.
