I never knew Pierce Brosnan's Bond movies were hated so much until I started visiting certain parts of the Internet (*cough* GAF *cough*). I kinda grew up with Brosnan as Bond. Watched all his Bond movies, and also even played the video games where he was Bond (especially Goldeneye). So I guess you could say I'm kinda biased. His era of movies and games introduced me to the series. He basically IS Bond to me.
I just feel like his movies aren't as terrible as everyone makes them out to be. Like, the only one that could be considered bad would probably be Die Another Day. That movie was a bit too ridiculous. Even a legitimately good movie like Goldeneye is starting to get retrospectively hated on. Goldeneye is usually considered to be great, but now you have some people going "Well, the only reason why it was good was because it was originally meant for Dalton". The World Is Not Enough is also seen as a bad movie, but I just don't really understand why. It wasn't amazing or anything, but it was at least decent. Could somebody give me an explanation as to why TWINE was such a bad movie other than "Well, Denise Richards was in it, so it's bad"?
As someone who never really had a huge problem with Brosnan's movies, I'd like to hear a solid explanation as to why they have such a bad reputation. Is it a retrospect thing? Were they always viewed this way even when they came out?
