If Moore was a bitter old man, jealous of the guy who replaced him, then surely he would have complained about Brosnan and Dalton, cause you know, they were Bond in between Moore and Craig.
One of my biggest complaints about this "revamped" Bond is that its too action/violence orientated, making it a generic action film rather than the unique action/spy films they were originally.
I love generic action films, but I dont want every action film to be generic.
As far as ratings go, I can only speak for the UK, but all the original films up to the first Dalton one, were PG, meaning they were aimed at pretty much the whole family, but from Licence to kill onwards, they have all been aimed at a slightly older crowd by including more violence (LTK was a 15 rating but all others are 12).
I can understand exactly where Moore is coming from on this.
I probably started watching Bond films when I was about five years old, I'd guess, which is why I suppose I am a Bond version of a Trekkie, but with the current ratings, the current generations of kids are missing out on the new Bond films, so they cant really grow up with them.
