Alec '006' Trevelyan (James Bond: Goldeneye) | Bad Guy Breakdowns

[@tigga2300]

Trevelyan was the most methodical and diabolical villain in the franchise imo. This battle was Bond's toughest imo because he was not only against an equally skilled 00 operative, but against a once very close personal friend who both grew up as orphans. Trevelyan also cared a lot for Bond as well, even going as far as considering asking him to join him in order to spare Bond from being a part of the U.K's destruction. In the end however, he knew Bond too well and strongly felt that Bond had a blind loyalty to the country.

[@lindildeev5721]

Yeah, he used to be the most dangerous villain ever. And then, a guy with an even deeper voice came, a scary, tough guy, who doesn't rely on his henchmen and succeeded in his way simpler plan : kill M.

Trevelyan (006) is the only villain who got under Bond's skin

[@leejohnstone4663]

Alec Treyelyan: oh stop James. Next I'll be ordering the Martini's to silence the screams of all the men you killed. Or if you found forgiveness in the arms of all those willing women. Even the dead ones you fail to protect

[@ChattinBoxingWYB]

Alec Trevelyan is basically what would happened if Bond left the M16 and went Bad!!

[@makvande576]

Have we tried NOT being a gigantic garbage can like churchil?

[@viking_2112]

Trevelyan is definitely my favourite bond villain. Aside from not killing Natalya, his plan made sense and he was a great physical and interlectual foil for bond. The performance from Sean bean is just perfect as well

[@LunaticLK47]

Can't even imagine the alternate reality where Sean Bean booked the role as Bond.

[@blankwavemessiah]

Fuck, man. Xenia is SOO much hotter than I remember as a kid

[@D00NBU66Y]

She was Jean Grey as well 🥵

[@danb1618]

That’s some high quality content for 400 views. Great script and editing

[@lukedaley17]

Alec Trevelyan in my opinion is the bond Franchise most evil and Diabolical villain. Love the reveal in the middle of the film where we discover that Alec faked his death and was the real Janusz criminal mastermind, that in my opinion is the greatest plot twist.

[@pretzelstick320]

Definitely not the most evil. You had the moon raker plot to kill off almost all humanity, meanwhile Alec wanted to destroy the British economy.

[@benstoyles1297]

How does this only have 300 views?! Great video.

[@byrne8509]

Great vid. The character of Alec Trevelyan is awesome. So is Sean bean :D

[@lemmyjoker3678]

Agreed

[@pepcool110]

RIP Geoff, gone but not forgotten... MVP Awesome video:D

[@nypad5]

if you pause at 7:00 min mark, that's a really cool shot of Bond on the right and Alec on the left!

[@niels25chr1]

There are some mistakes in this video. He says loud and clear in the memorial park, that his parents survived the British betrayal and Stalins execution squats, but his father later killed himself and his wife... No one says that this all happened in 1945. I could have happened years later. Fine little breakdown. You guys should do a similar one on Franz Sanchez in Licence To Kill.

[@grungefreak10]

Yes, Natalya had some pretty good Plot Armor.

[@TheT3rr0rMask]

Wouldn't call his plan passive. Remember what happened at Severnaya when GoldenEye went off? Imagine that with 1000x more destruction.

[@cesargonzalez4146]

Just with the people connected to respiratory assistance machines, operating machinery, inside elevators, planes or in the tube, he could have gotten about half a million guaranteed deaths, give or take.

[@nathanmcdonald610]

Lol your Boris description at 13:07 is so fitting given that Alan Cummings is actually gay in real life.

[@MrStath1986]

Would love to see you do one of these on Onatopp herself, given the mentions of her. She seems quite shallow but I think there's a lot going on in terms of Famke's performance.

[@crazymage9636]

Plot twist , Alec was actually the good guy, believe it or not.

[@sugdolomar]

11:18 People (and me) who played Goldeneye 64: Allow us to introduce ourselves.

[@abisnow1843]

regarding the age thing, I kind of assumed that his parents survived a bit longer, a few years maybe, but killed themselves eventually. In my head Trevelyan wasn't born in '46, but probably closer to the 50's. Idk it made sense to me that they had Alec while in hiding (kind of?) but the "shame" he mentions caught up with them. This would put him in his 40's at the time of Goldeneye but yeah. I never thought too hard about the timeline until you mentioned it.

[@stephen_crummey]

This was hell of a lot of fun Konrad, very funny. Looking forward to more 👍🏻

[@thecaveofculture]

Thank you kindly, Stephen! It's taken a while getting a format and video transitions I was happy with but I'm pleased with how it came out, and really glad people seem to be enjoying it. - Konrad

[@stephen_crummey]

@@thecaveofculture It looks like you put a lot of work into it, it shows. Nice you've got your own little Konrad corner section of the cave to explore your own obsessions now!

4:54. I thought it was pronounced Y - annus

[@luigihoratio5101]

It is. Not a lot of people pronounce it right though.

[@loganwilley718]

A great video! Thought the background music was a bit too distracting though. Either way, a great format, and well written!

[@d007ization]

I think Xenia's death made sense in the sense that she was so physically capable, so adept at driving, flying and shooting that her death needed to be the result of Bond being a lucky motherofengla

[@DeathNeff]

He died once as villain and lived again as Honorable Ned Stark and died again

[@chriswatson1698]

Also Boromir

[@TheNavalAviator]

Half way into the video I realized you were saying "Natalya" instead of "an Italian". I always thought, "which Italian?"😂🤣

[@AJKam1kaz3]

We could play this theory: 006's ancestor killed 007's ancestor (well, not really)! Just look up the historical fiction show "Sharpe" and actor Daniel Craig.

[@elimin-8]

Do one on Silva in Skyfall

[@TheStrayHALOMAN]

Goldeneye imo is the best bond film though I would say that Connery is the best bond, it's just that Goldeneye is so god tier that it surpasses all the rest.

[@gavin4981]

Bad guys forever

[@livingcorpse5664]

Age isn't too much of a problem, there are 50 and 40 year old people who look 30-ish.

[@nexus8917]

Alec's parents didn't kill themselves to escape execution. They managed to flee to the West but his father was riddled with survivors guilt and executed his wife and then himself. It's also possible his parents could have been in their late teens in 1945 and maybe just had him later.

[@Nangsansun]

Damn you Sharpe! If I had known you'd work for the Russians, I wouldn't have promoted you.

[@billytruong8917]

He faked his own death

[@luigihoratio5101]

And came back as the main villain. That is so sinister. But I can understand why he did it though.
