My problem with James

Not St. James or arbitrary blokes names James, Jameson, or Jamie...

Bond, James Bond...specifically Casino Royale and not so specifically all 007 Movies...

It's all about expectations. After seeing a few bond movies I expect the following: -

Sexual Relations with more than one woman
A fast car
Getting caught by baddies and then escaping
Gadgets
Guns firing more than 80 rounds per second at James and him never actually getting hit
A car chase scene
A car crash scene
James walking away from said crash scene
Scenes on some exotic caribbean island
Betrayal by said women who he has had sexual relationships with
Always, someone from MI being a traitor

The new bond movie was no exception.

Just for once, please, humour me. Have none of the above take place and still make a bad ass James Bond movie. But to no avail.

What really gets me vex is the shooting up the dance pieces and Bond never gets hit.

Make it real nuh.

How you will have fully automatic weapons spraying bullets to and fro, from left to right, up and down and in 360 degree fashions and James eh get hit.

What kinda nonsense is that?

Oh gosh man?

Allyuh geh wha I sayin?
