Survivor : Bond gone bad & Defence

Bond gone bad & Defence

He should have just kept playing Bond.
And did you notice in the trailer they spelled defense as defence? hmmmmm.

Re: Bond gone bad + Defence

Yeah Defence is how it is spelt in proper British English, also Canadian English and Australian English, so the original and correct way I would say, what's wrong with that?

Re: Bond gone bad + Defence

I'm American and I laughed at first, but I looked it up to make sure. It was correct, like how in Britain they spell "civilisation" with an "s" where Americans put a "z". It's an international trailer, and it looks like "defence" is actually the way the majority of English speakers spell it.

Huh. I learn something new every day.

Dialogue and Dialog and all the other "ue" words.

It's those Brits adding unnecessary letters to perfectly simple English words.

Just kidding. I'm American. And until I started using a computer 15 years ago, I always used the silent ue. I'm pretty sure that's the way it was taught in the 1970's.

Re: Bond gone bad + Defence

This is why we have US English and UK English. If you type chat a lot then you will soon learn there is many words, with different spellings. I would prefer a standard worldwide English than variants.

But that's me!

Re: Bond gone bad + Defence

The standard should be the original, you can't borrow a language for convenience and then demand that it's changed to suit your bastardisation!

Re: Bond gone bad + Defence

BASTARDIZATION !


Re: Bond gone bad + Defence

LOL. Shouting won't make it right.

Re: Bond gone bad + Defence

Naw, the Brit might have started it but the Americans perfected it. Or if you prefer just use the American way because it is the most widely used over 300,000,000 people using it vs 64,000,000 in the UK.

Re: Bond gone bad + Defence

Ow! You might want to redo your math. Proper English is been used by far more people. It is not only UK.

Re: Bond gone bad + Defence

Well actually I was being generous by giving you all of the UK, I'm not sure parts of the UK use proper English by anyones definition of it You would probably be trying to pull in folks from Australia and Canada and even then you have to admit that they aren't using "proper" English as their versions are still variants of the UK version.

Re: Bond gone bad + Defence

Well, now just take a country, India, with a population over a billion, which uses primarily British english.

Re: Bond gone bad + Defence

Lol, proper English that NO ONE understands, but since they understand each other I guess it counts :)

Re: Bond gone bad + Defence

Popularity is the slutty little cousin of prestige.

Re: Bond gone bad + Defence

i'll spell in british english if i'm in the uk otherwise american english is the norm

Say NO! Don`t buy the next ME or the ME3 ending/hogwash will be canon!

Re: Bond gone bad + Defence

You should learn lojban :D Good luck!

Brosnan would have continued as Bond had it been up to him.

Re: Bond gone bad & Defence

Q or Desmond Llewelyn, in the bond movies, said Pierce Brosnan played the best James Bond character, to the letter.
So whatever movie he does now, he'll make that character shine.

He demanded way too money, unfortunately.

Re: Bond gone bad & Defence

tchristian sorry but Pierce Brosnan did a fine job for what he was asked to do in this movie as a sniper/bad guy. I think it would be interesting if he took on an even more important role as a the #1 bad guy in a movie at some point but I also would like to see him continue to be a guy that works for top dogs.

Re: Bond gone bad & Defence

Allow me to apologize for my fellow American's ethnocentric views. Most of us unfortunately think that "international" means a 2-day trip to Niagara Falls Canada or Cancun Mexico. I am continually saddened by this

Re: Bond gone bad & Defence

This was just a somewhat poorly written role, and I was wondering why he took the role.
I guess one doesn't know how things will play out before filming and editing.
Same goes for Milla's role.
