whats with him...?


whats up with him doing all these B-movies...?
is he broke? or was he a b-movie actor this whole time and bond movies fooled us into thinking he was more than that?

reply

Based on his history and professional background, I know he has potential to prosper with or without Bond.

reply

youre speaking about potential for a 63 year old actor?
hes past his prime, he is what he is, had an ok career, right now hes at that stage of making movies for the paycheck living off that bond fame, and thats ok in my book

Sean Connery had a career resurgence in the 1980s. Besides, Sylvester Stallone had a comeback with Rocky Balboa and Rambo.

i dont think he was ever at their level of popularity, even in his prime, you cannot come back to a place you never were in the first place,
while i respect you trying to make your point, i wouldnt hold my breath for any of that

stay safe

Well I guess Pierce might as well be in the same boat as Steven "Fat" Seagal.

If you look at the big picture, GoldenEye is his last movie that accomplished two things simultaneously: multiple excellent reviews/ratings and box office returns (or generally speaking, high number of viewers). Since after his debut to James Bond, his works either get not so good reviews/ratings or don't not get the recognition they deserve. In a way, GoldenEye is like his one-hit wonder to the majority of the audience, particularly outside of his fanbase. I know Pierce is better than this yet Hollywood is pulling a Seagal out of him very slowly. I mean, look at his recent works Survivor, Some Kind of Beautiful and Urge. Video-on-demand with limited theatrical release.

I just watched the trailer for his tv series The Son and it looks promising like it might resurrect his career. TV is doing great stuff for underrated film actors and giving them great popularity.

Film never treated Hugh Laurie the way he desreved and his career took a hig boost with House and he is still great doing tv now nominated for the Night Manager and seems like Chance is not doing bad at all.

So tv is now the way for ageist Hollywood, Kevin spacy is very happy on House of Cards along Robin Wright who was never very appreciated on the big screen.
As long as they are doing great it doesn't matter if its tv or film so who knows maybe the Son lasts 10 seasons and Pierce gets nominated for 10 Emmys in. Row.
