Bond, James Bond back to cinema through Spectre age of three years ago we met him in Skyfall. When watching Skyfall in 2012, the third James Bond film starring Daniel Craig, I finally understand: reboot the story of a secret agent who had a license to kill and coded 007 has found a steady shape.
Arguably, since Craig so James Bond Casino Royale 2006 through hinggaSkyfall, his story has become a full circle.
So, how do we call this Spectre, the most expensive Bond movie and is expected to surpass box office Skyfall, which reached $ 1.1 billion? A new circle or some sort of indentation from the existing circle?
You may remember, James Bond is Daniel Craig version of James Bond reboot story that is not associated with stories of secret agent action in the previous films. Previous episodes of James Bond, starring Pierce Brosnan, ending in Die Another Day (2002).
When Die Another Day release, we find that the times are changing. The terrorist attacks on New York and Washington on 11 September 2001, or often called the September 11 (9/11, nine / eleven) changed the face of the world instantly. US finds its main enemy of the postCold War past decade. The fight against terrorism into the main discourse of post-9/11.
James Bond in Die Another Day does not represent a new age just changed it. Bond Brosnan version still represents a decade earlier, when the West so the winner of the Cold War. Bond with a variety of sophisticated equipment into a symbol of the greatness of the West dominate the global geo-political landscape of post-Cold War.
However, it collapsed because of 9/11.Through the terrorist attacks on that fateful Tuesday fourteen years ago, the West's eyes widened. Advanced technology they do not make them immune to the threat
When linked, September 11, 2001 as Hollywood filmmakers tapped consciousness that do not need advanced technology to attack a superpower. Suffice riding as a passenger commercial aircraft, hijacked the plane with a penknife, and then crashed into a skyscraper. Never imagined before, even by Hollywood, the aircraft used as weapons of mass destruction.
As the world changed, Hollywood changed anyway. Secret agent Bond a wide equipped advanced technology is considered outdated.
Hollywood then find a new hero figure in the world of espionage: passing Jason Bourne The Bourne Identity (2002).Yes, Jason Bourne is actually the antithesis of James Bond Pierce Brosnan and his predecessor. Bourne was not equipped with sophisticated weapons. He did not have a Q which is always complete with the latest equipment, or a boss who is also being called M plus secretary Moneypenny. Bourne also had a habit of sleeping with many women depraved.
Even so, through the ability to conquer the opponent with bare hands, Bourne is considered more appropriate reality. I dreamed, in the subconscious of Hollywood filmmakers, they think: after all, Bond's advanced technology could not prevent the West attacked by terrorists with simple equipment.
As a result, the last film in the era Bond Brosnan (Die Another Day, 2002) was outdated when it appears post9/11. Hollywood conscious must immediately bury Brosnan Bond flavor or they will be left spectators.
James Bond Daniel Craig version then proffered in response to the times had changed. If you watch again Casino Royale, released in 2006, will feel much difference at all between Bond sense Brosnan with Craig.
When Craig intended so Bond, some traditions are so typical Bond originally stripped down, while retaining several others. Craig version of Bond is not equipped with sophisticated weapons crafted by Craig version of Bond's Q. But still fond of women, even though in his heart adrift on a course, Vesper Lynd (Bond so faithful man? It is also not uncommon). And especially, Craig version of Bond cool character, lack of humor of the Bond unconscious characteristic of many people.
