The production wanted Brosnan for a long time, from the time of the Remington Steele series, but because of the contract he had with that series, Bronsnan couldn't sign on to be Bond, he had to wait a couple of years until finally he could. That's why he's that the production had to summon Timothy Dalton at that time.

Then she turns out to be an irredeemable psycho, and the movie's good Bond girl is Natalya, who starts out more plainly dressed and doesn't have any combat training, but gets by anyway thanks to her technical skills, determination and quick thinking

Connery could brawl pretty well. Moore could be serious, but there weren't a lot of those moments written into his films, or perhaps used too sparingly. Dalton was a bit too earnest and as a result his film took Bond to almost a generic action movie, which wasn't really what Bond was about. Strangely he did have many more quips than I remember. This is why Brosnan's Bond had become Moorish. This film is more modern in the sense it is faster paced, which I think helps a lot.

He was also THE James Bond from my childhood, and indeed the suavest of them all.

The first time I ever saw Pierce Brosnan was in the TV show Remington Steele, and my first thought of him was, Wow, he'd make a great James Bond! :) It's my understanding that Brosnan had always been interested in playing the part of Bond, but when Dalton left and the role became available, Pierce's wife at that time was dying of cancer so he at first declined. They waited until he was ready to play the part to start shooting Bond movies again, which is why Dalton's last movie was in 1989 and this movie was in 1995. I don't know how accurate I am, but that's what I heard at the time as to why it took 6 years for a new Bond movie to come out. Well worth the wait! I was so sad for Brosnan that he lost his wife, but very happy he eventually got to play this part. He was always meant to be Bond. :)

To answer your question about 'M', in the movie universe it is the designation for the head of MI6. It comes from the real life first head of the British Secret Intelligence Service (MI6): Sir Mansfield Cumming. He always signed his official documents with the letter 'C' in green ink. That signature tradition continues and the head is referred to as 'C'. Since Ian Flemming had been in Intelligence and details about MI5 & MI6 were classified back when in the day, he changed details, like 'C' being changed to 'M'.

Brosnan was born to be Bond and he delivers with all his dashing, savoir faire persona. Fun and deadly at the same time and utterly cool - shame the producers cut his legacy too short IMO. I knew you'd enjoy it Jen. And Famke Janssen - whoa baby!~ Saw her on the streets of NYC twice and she is stop traffic gorgeous.

PS: I'm sure it's been mentioned but Brosnan was earmarked by the producers in the '80s to be the new Bond after Moore but his TV series REMINGTON STEELE on NBC became a hit and his contract bound him form doing so. Shows patience paid off for everyone.

Eric Serra is the composer this time and for the only time in the Bond saga, he was also the composer of "Leon The Professional", a film from 1 year before Goldeneye and I think that's why the production called him, they would have liked the score of that other movie

The role of “M” is based on the real life Chief of the Secret Intelligence Service (MI6) who is known as “C”. The first head of MI6 was a man named Mansfield Smith-Cumming - who would sign all documents with just the letter “C” in green ink. That became a tradition with the chiefs after him - so all documents and orders are signed “C” in green ink. Therefore, “M” isn’t a person but rather a position - whoever is chief at the time is “M”.

15:34 Yes, “M” is a code name for the head of MI6. Specifically, M stands for “Missions,” to identify that the incumbent is the head of the Missions Department. **SPOILER ALERT** There have been four official onscreen Ms in 007 history. The first was actor Bernard Lee, who played M in 11 Bond films between 1962 and 1979. His character’s actual name was Miles Messervy. There was no M onscreen in FOR YOUR EYES ONLY (1981), out of respect for Bernard Lee’s passing that year. The second M was actor Robert Brown, who had previously played Admiral Hargreaves in THE SPY WHO LOVED ME (1977). There is some debate as to whether Brown’s M is intended to be the same character as Lee’s M, or whether he is still playing Admiral Hargreaves and has been promoted to the role of M - this is something that is never cleared up in the films. In any event, Brown portrayed M in 4 Bond films, the last being LICENCE TO KILL (1989). The next actor to take on the M role was Judi Dench, who, as you see here, started playing M in GOLDENEYE (1995), and appeared in the next seven Bond films until SKYFALL (2012), although she appears briefly in a video in SPECTRE (2015). This version of the character was said to be based on real life MI5 head Stella Rimmington, and originally has a strained relationship with Bond. As you will see in future Bond films, she develops a better relationship with Bond, and like Bernard Lee, Dench played M for more than one Bond. Her character’s name is eventually revealed to be Olivia Mansfield. Judi Dench’s M was directly replaced by Ralph Fiennes’ character Gareth Mallory, who had appeared throughout SKYFALL (2012) as Chairman of the Intelligence and Security Committee. He went on to appear as M in the subsequent Daniel Craig Bond films SPECTRE (2015) and NO TIME TO DIE (2021), which brings us up to the present.

This is the first I ever saw Femke Jennsen, after this she was in lots of good stuff. Sean Bean, Robbie Coltrane, Joe Don Baker, Judi Dench, all first rate actors, especially Academy award winning powerhouse, Dame Judi Dench (Lady M). But I absolutely love Samantha Bond, the new MoneyPenny. She’s an awesome British Character actress who always pops up in the British Mystery movies and TV shows I love. My favorite being “The Murder Room” adapted from a PD James novel. Can’t wait for your next reaction. You’re so funny and cool and appreciate the movies.

"Ahh ughh, freaking c***block" - Jen Murray Hi Jen🙋♂️ Pierce Brosnan's series of Bond movies all have this type of style and feel, so more quips are ah coming. Brosnan was also the leading candidate to play Bond in the Timothy "Dreamy" Dalton's movies. But the NBC TV series he was involved in, got extended for another season. Thus Dreamy got the roll. And just for laughs, poor Sean Bean. He dies in like 90% of all his movies. Also with the way his name is spelled, you'd think it would rhyme. Thanks Jen 🙋♂️🍾🥂🍾

Goldeneye is the best bond film of the 90s and brosnan’s best. You pointed out how many quips Brosnan’s bond had, well that was by design. As much as I love Dalton’s no-nonsense portrayal of bond, he got a very lukewarm reception as bond during his tenure. The biggest criticism was that Dalton wasn’t funny and suave enough. So with Brosnan they made a conscious effort to give him more humour and suave moments (eg. More quips and fixing his tie in battle) Dalton never does that in his movies. However if there hadn’t been studio lawsuits Dalton would’ve come back for 2 more films, he was originally slated to return in Goldeneye but the lawsuits lasted for too long and he just quit, then Brosnan came in.

The Bond of my era, though personal favorite might also be Dalton just because there was a lot of potential that was unexplored with him… not to rag on any other Bonds, Bronson is good, Craig coming up after him is great, and Connery is iconic, just love The Living Daylights personally. Also, you probably don’t recognize her with the over the top Russian accent, but Xenia Onatopp is played by Famke Janssen who also plays Jean Grey in the X-Men movies. And yes, re watch LOTR! The 20th anniversary of Return of the King is coming up this December, perfect excuse to go back to Middle Earth.

Some have mentioned that Pierce was recommended by the fanbase for years. This is because he was co-starring in a fun detective series called Remington Steele in the 80s. It was about a female detective who picked a man to be the face of her agency so she would be able to succeed and get more potential clients. It was a blast and made Pierce an instant star.

Jen, this movie was actually written for Dalton. That’s why it’s very dark at times and the action is very gritty and intense. Dalton was approached but because of the length of time away from the character he felt it had been too long. Also Dalton wanted to only do one more whereas the producers wanted him to sign a multi-picture contract which he didn’t want to do. So this was supposed to be Timothy Dalton’s third film and that’s one of the reasons it’s so good because it was for his darker version of Bond
