Bring Back The Gadgets Bond

Posted on Monday, November 29, 2010 in Uncategorized

I have recently just purchased all of the James Bond collection and watching them through you do not realise just how many gadgets are in the films. Now I have seen all of them before but watching them through now I am a bit older you really get an insight to some of the crazy, yet useful gadgets Mr Bond used.

 

At the moment I am about to start the man with the golden gun but I have seen them all before as previously said and they just do not tend to use the cool gadgets they used to in these movies, they also do not have the impact they used to which is a great shame. Why is this and why do you never see things like spy phones and other spy gadgets in Bond anymore?

 

The New Movies Take A Different Route

It seems to be that as soon as Daniel Craig stepped in the directors and writers have taken a different approach from the previous films in that the gadgets involved are few and far between and that when they do feature they are rather dull and simple gadgets like perhaps hidden spy cameras or something like this.

 

Even Daniel Craig himself has suggested that he wants gadgets in the film as to him playing Bond is not only about the women, fast cars and action sequences but the gadgets also. If you think about it the gadgets have played a major part in saving bond's life over the years and have also killed a villain or two as you will know if you have seen some of the movies.

 

Bond gadgets in my eyes make the movies and without them they are just like the Bourne films, not a bad thing but not something that is Bond and this is what is disappointing.

 

If they ever get round to the new film let us hope they will contain gadgets again to show the fans it is not going downhill from here!
