Does it use ‘Bond villain’ rather than implicitly mention Sean Bean in order to avoid spoiling the demise of a character in a movie from almost three decades ago?
- pimlottc 3y agoOr they just assume most people aren’t familiar with the characters from every random Bond movie?
- schnitzelstoat 3y agoIt's Alec Trevelyan. I played the N64 game so much as a kid I can probably name almost all of the characters in Goldeneye.
- mtlmtlmtlmtl 3y agoFair assumption, although Goldeneye is easily one of the best Bond movies, if not the best. Personally I remember more about that movie than I do about the whole rest of the franchise combined.
- mcpackieh 3y agoGoldeneye is among the best, but for my money I think Timothy Dalton gave us the best Bond performances we're likely to ever get. Brosnan did it well, but Timothy Dalton just oozed cool killer vibes.
- Cthulhu_ 3y agoI remembered it was a villain, I didn't remember it was played by Sean Bean so, more effective headline for me personally. I'm not sure why you honed in on that though.
- WJW 3y agoOi! Spoilers!

- mig39 3y agoIt's not a spoiler. If Sean Bean is in a movie or TV show, he will die.
- c-linkage 3y agoHe didn't die in the _The Martian_ or _Ronin_, but he was fired from his job in both movies.
- NooneAtAll3 3y agoNot remembering Sharpe... Now that's not soldiering
- sideshowb 3y agoIsn't the modern consensus that Sean Bean being cast to play a character carries that information implicitly?
- barrysteve 3y agoThey spoiled most of the movie in the trailer, back in 1995. My friend still to this day says he would have preferred to go in blind, not knowing who the bad guy was. It would have been an epic reveal.
- mrguyorama 3y agoI don't intentionally watch movie trailers for this very reason.
