Just for the scenery, I would like that to happen.

But really, when they rush through of how his most important part, of how he is as a leader united all the tribes (they didnt even mention tribes in the movie barely, like he won over bunch of gangs), or dont even show zip of it, then whats the point of contuining on showing more of his life?

I mean, its better if this was one off, because they screwed up so much of the basic foundations of how he came to be, to seriously continue on with it. They didnt show the Khans and Generals he won over, many of them whom later became his closest right hand men and conquering generals. And the same with his brothers (only showed one brother...) who were his fiercest Generals etc.

This movie was a very liberal take on his life, more of a romantic story in scenry of the Mongol times, so its nice enough in that regard. No use pretending on that they will make a remotely close historical biopic of him. I mean usually period pieces have some historical inaccuracies for entertainments sake, but this one the director didnt even try to make accurate except in very shallow things like few names, and that was it.

So do I.. IMO Brosnan was the worst actor to potray Bond.. Not in that he was the worse actor in general rather just the role did not suit his type of arrogance
Come on Gazzo.Brosnan was light years ahead of Craig.When i think of James Bond,the actor that comes to my mind is Brosnan.The fact that he was the most well known Bond of our time could play a part in this,and plus i havent seen too many movies of Connery as bond..but Brosnan was top drawer.

The worst James Bond has to be Dalton.

Ah but you've forgotten that George Lazenby was allowed to portray 007 in On Her Majesty's Secret Service.

At least Dalton was paired up with a young Benicio Del Toro.

:D

Didnt Lazenby turn down future Bond movies himself?I heard he was offered a 7 movie contract but he turned it down,also his public announcement of not staring in future Bond movies before the release of Her Majesty effected the movie's publicity too.

Well I'm not sure about any of that. It's quite possible. I'm sure Martin and the Scotts will fill us in when they wake.:D
