Goldeneye
>>
Me too OP, mostly because I get bored and stop paying attention.
>>
>>62766644
not the other anon, but Goldeneye is fairly straightforward

>006 is "betrayed" as a kid by Englad
>grows up and becomes 006
>steals 2 satellite EMPs (the "Goldeneye" weapons)
>fires one as a test
>plans to rob every bank in London, then fire the second one to erase his all records of his theft
>simultaneously become filthy rich and get revenge for childhood betrayal

to sum it up: 006 is a whiny brat, and all russians are incompetent
>>
>>62766622
Casiono Royale and Quantum

>cold war suppose to have finished
>one stupid russian still upset
>spits dummy out and kills own men and women to steal a weapon (Goldeneye)
>meanwhile Bond and another agent (who have alot of camaraderie) are deep in shit
>Bond escapes, best bud presumed dead
>MI6 notified of Goldeneye theft
>Also that upset Russian steals an attack helicopter
>Bond sent in to Russia. Meet up with Felix at CIA
>Funnily enough one girl survived that Goldeneye theft attack
>Bond and her somehow meet bang
>Bond gets into shit and turns out his old chum is bad guy
>Calamity ensues on a train
>They find out that Goldeneye base is in Cuba
>Bond and girl bang
>They're on way to Cuba
>Bond has not much of a problem destroying the place
>end

But that only raises more questions.

So the super weapon was created by the Russians?

Was 006 working for the Russians?

Wasn't the Cold War over?

What was the significance of Russian love interest other than being a love interest?

How was 006 going to rob banks? Did the Russians build a bank-robbing super weapon?

>Robs him of his precious aston martin DB5
>About to shag this cunts bird aswell but she lets him know that hes on his way to Miami on urgent business

Yeah, I thought it was because I watched them as a kid.. but I just watched The Living Daylights last night and Im still not sure I knew what the fuck I was watching.

From what I could figure out... A fake russian defector wants brits to think another russian dude is ordering the killing agents so they will kill that russian dude because they want to cover up the purchase of weapons which are actually diamonds which are being used to buy heroin from the pre-taliban??? Is that right??
>>
And I thought MGS was bad

>>62766870
Thanks man, i feel a little less stupid now

And fucks the girl who is working with the villain for one reason or another.
>>
>>62767019
Yeah, but at the same time this isn't exactly Tolstoy. If OP can't even follow Bond then what the fuck can they follow?
>>
ITT; A sever lack of critical thinking.

I feel like I missed out on some pretty crucial plot points in spectre.

>blofeld's dad adopted bond and blofeld killed him
>blofeld was behind everything bond was involved with in the past few years
>new intelligence guy was working with blofeld so they could set up a massive surveillance state
>former blofeld crony is dying so he reluctantly helps bond find his daughter
>bond and bond girl take out blofeld and stop the NSA thing

What am I missing? Typing it out seems to make sense but while I was watching it I felt very confused.
>>
>>62767184
Nope, that's pretty much the whole thing. The whole "Spectre was behind everything" thing made no sense, especially trying to connect Silva to the other shit, because they came up with it out of the blue to make this movie. Quantum, on the other hand, was part of Casino Royale. Silva was a good standalone villain. But some hack on the writing staff said "what if an even bigger, scarier, and more unknown organization was behind Quantum which was behind Le Chiffre?" And then it happened.

I didn't dislike Spectre, but the stupid fucking scene with the Specte meeting has to be one of the worst things in a movie in recent memory.
