You made the bizarre comment about Dalton somehow “built his entire career on being a poor man’s version of Brosnan.” It was strange given that Dalton was an actor and star when Brosnan was an unknown schoolboy. Dalton was also a far superior actor. He was the last actor that was a decent Bond. Brosnan was insufferably smug still doing Remington Steele as Bond and Daniel Craig is ludicrously miscast as an emotionless, charmless thug.
Seriously, Stu, you need to learn how to govern your emotions when faced with someone with a differing opinion of your beloved Faux Trek. Let it go, man.
All of which is besides the point that every actor to play Bond has done it differently. This is how movie and TV franchises are supposed to work, actors come, actors go, everybody puts their own spin on it, they aren’t supposed to pretend to be the previous guy.
I’ve got no emotions in this. Again that’s all from you. You’re the guy all devastated because they “ruined” Trek. I’m pointing out that what you consider “ruined” is actually a damn site better than most of what preceded it, and calling it “faux” is just emotionalism in place of an argument. As I’ve said the problem isn’t your opinion, I don’t give a good $#% damn if you like, but you constantly go way past opinion, often into insult. Don’t like it all you want, your problem, but when you start saying anybody that likes it is dumb that’s just you being a jerk and emotional.
Take your own advice. There’s a new Trek out there, it’s better and moire popular than most of what came before LET IT GO MAN.
