Teenagers are the largest movie going demographic group in the US. They like tits and things that go boom.

Yeah and then the movies get the blame, when it should be the kid or their parents.

You have to consider the budget of those older Bond movies though. For that money you could not even make a Home Movie these days. If you look over especially older movies there are a lot of weird errors like when he arrives at the airport he enteres a yellow cab and gets dropped off by a checkers cab at the hotel.
What drives me nuts the most though, is actual stupidity, especially in movies involvin history, some directors should get their facts staight before they shoot.

well i personally am not that bothered by little errors like a wheel trim comes off twice, or (as you said) gettin out of a diff cab (how do you know he didnt stop off on-route?  ) but the major errors, like films that are based on fact, and where people come back from the dead apparently Titanic had SOOOOOOOO many errors, including a guy comin back from the dead oh and ive never heard of karachi, so it makes no difference to me

Have you noticed in movies .. Computers always BEEP !!. They type something on the keyboard and it beeps and then when it has a result it beeps as well.
Saying all this, movies are "MAKE BELIEVE" and should be seen that way..They are good for a bit of mindless fun ... when you had a crap day and you want something Brain dead to do.. :-)
None of them are true .. even those based on true stories..

the movie name is "the living daylights" yeah right.. and whats up james bond russian fetish.. to me, james bond looks more like a cold war era propoganda tool... its not only history and geography knowledge what directors need to work on but also on their scientefic.. anyone seen another 007 crap called "moonraker" these days, all hollywood movies revolve around the same theme.. some infidel becomes a threat to US national security or wants to uncover government black deeds to the public..or shoots the first lady by mistake... the entire FBI and CIA is after him, this one super being is able to take down entire teams of heavily armed FBI and SWAT with on damn hand gun.. in the end.. based on the movie context, he is either a hero and rewared or a villian and punished.. honestly kids can write much better storylines than the idiots sitting in hollywood..
