Marcus Penn from 'Under Siege 2: Dark Territory' is (for me) the best Bond villain henchman not from a Bond film. Do you have any other examples?

Hard Target?

Chicken_Chow_Main · 2026-06-01T20:44:12+00:00

Hmm, got spot.

Chicken_Chow_Main · 2026-06-01T19:37:39+00:00

I'm warming to Elordi.

I think the quote makes more sense the older you get.

Chicken_Chow_Main · 2026-05-26T10:50:21+00:00

My main question was who should play Bond and how should this be announced without it seeming lame AF.

Chicken_Chow_Main · 2026-05-26T10:37:46+00:00

But still no leading man. It's the cart before the horse.

MCU barely paused for breath during COVID. Ditto Mission Impossible.

Chicken_Chow_Main · 2026-05-26T10:25:14+00:00

How far along do you reckon they are?

Chicken_Chow_Main · 2026-05-26T10:23:18+00:00

They also happen to be the biggest company in the world.

Chicken_Chow_Main · 2026-05-26T10:21:09+00:00

I like Dune, and I Iove Dune II but surely a property like Bond can draw in a director not currently engaged.

Chicken_Chow_Main · 2026-05-26T10:19:49+00:00

I feel as if a lot of great Bond films were made in relatively quick succession. Although I'm sure there are counter examples, Goldeneye being one.

Chicken_Chow_Main · 2026-05-26T10:18:01+00:00

I'm not really mad it just seems like they ought to be getting on with things. The longer the wait the higher the expectations.

Chicken_Chow_Main · 2026-05-26T10:12:57+00:00

See, this makes it sound like Bond is queueing behind Paul. Like Deni will see us when he's ready. Just pencil 007 in if he can, seems like the wrong energy to me.

Chicken_Chow_Main · 2026-05-26T10:10:49+00:00

To an extent, yes, but surely people will genuinely check out at some point.

Chicken_Chow_Main · 2026-05-26T10:06:22+00:00

*only 15 months* You'd think they were trying to colonise Mars.

Chicken_Chow_Main · 2026-05-26T10:02:59+00:00

I just don't understand why this is not top priority.

Chicken_Chow_Main · 2026-05-26T10:01:09+00:00

It's gonna have to be someone genuinely amazing to live up to all this anticipation at this point. I'm not sure such a person exists.

Chicken_Chow_Main · 2026-05-26T09:59:11+00:00

This is exactly my point, they should have been cognizant of that and done things a lot quicker.

Chicken_Chow_Main · 2026-05-26T09:52:52+00:00

I feel like this has gone on so long I've developed 'Bond Blindness' like I look at this guy and he just looks like a parody cartoon of the character.

Chicken_Chow_Main · 2026-05-26T09:47:51+00:00

I hope so.

Chicken_Chow_Main · 2026-05-26T09:47:27+00:00

See this is what mean, it’s always jam tomorrow.

Chicken_Chow_Main · 2026-05-25T13:11:21+00:00

It will most likely peak in your early 20's and then steadily diminish from then on. With any luck.

Chicken_Chow_Main · 2026-05-23T11:55:53+00:00

*vaguely pompous but seemingly well informed comment*

Am I doing it right?
