Sir Hugo Drax works for SPECTRE, has a huge underground base in Loch Ness, Scotland and plans to to hijack a nuclear submarineTatiana Romonova returns as the lead heroine. Sounds fun!


Best Bond film title...

"Quantum Of Solace"

OR

"Licence To Kill"


??

[The Dove]

Licence To Kill

Robert Davi and Grand L. Bush: Their roles as Sanchez and DEA agent Hawkins in Licence to Kill, or their roles as FBI Agents Johnson and Johnson in Die Hard?

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Both good but I'll say Johnson and Johnson in Die Hard.

Junkanoo scenes in Nassau from Thunderball

or

Carnivale scenes in Rio from Moonraker?

[Pussfeller]

Junkanoo. It has everything: benevolent drunk, urinating dog, etc.

Best missed opportunity for innuendo:

"May I press you to a cucumber sandwich?"

or

"It is housed in the butt"

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Sam Neill as James Bond in The Living Daylights

or

James Brolin as James Bond in Octopussy?

[thecasinoroyale]

James Brolin as James Bond in 'Octopussy'...I think, I can't have TLD without Dalton!


Best pre-title sequence:

'Quantum Of Solace'

OR

'GoldenEye'

??

[Mr. Blofeld]

Quantum of Solace, mainly because it has a better grasp of geography than GoldenEye's. ;-)


Three way for best female villainess:

Fiona Volpe

Fatima Blush

Xenia Onatopp

[PrinceKamalKhan]

VOLPE. Definitely VOLPE.

Bond's fight with Jacques Bouvard at his French chateaux in the pre-title sequence from Thunderball


or

Bond's fight with Che Che in Tracy's hotel room from On Her Majesty’s Secret Service?

[thecasinoroyale]

Bond's fight with Che Che in Tracy's hotel room from 'On Her Majesty's Secret Service'...something about that is just classic Bond brutality!

Best Pre-Title Sequence #2:

'Die Another Day'

OR

'The World Is Not Enough'

??

[dogmanstar]

TWINE

Better elevator sequence:

Gardner's For Special Services

Or

A View to A Kill?

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Gardner's For Special Services

The death of Brandt via Blofeld's pet piranha pool in You Only Live Twice

or

The death of Volpe via bullet on the dance floor in Thunderball?

[Pussfeller]

Volpe. Much more elegant and dramatic.

Dorkiest Bond vehicle:

Moon buggy

or

Little Nellie

[thecasinoroyale]

Moon buggy...totally pointless!


In an alternate universe, would you rather....


American actors, producers and studios were responsible for bringing James Bond to the screen from the big screen adaptaion of the new 'Casino Royale' in 1962 once more starring Barry Nelson, who is contracted for 4 films, continuing 50 years later with an original title, 'Skyfall To Stay Alive', starring Tom Cruise in his 5th James Bond film with Halle Berry as his co-star in the past 3 films as CIA Operative Felicity 'Flick' Lieter.

OR

'Dr.No' is made in the UK by EON in 1962, and starring Sean Connery as we know and love, but it is a three picture deal and is followed by 'You Only Live Twice and 'From Russia With Love', adaptations faithful to Ian Fleming's original books and marketed as the 007 Trilogy which ends after 'FRWL' in 1965 with great success and cult following. EON tries to re-boot the love for James Bond in 1981 with a new picture, 'From A View To A Kill', starring Timothy Dalton and David Bowie. It flops, and James Bond has not been seen since.

[Trevelyan 006]

Veeeery Creative...
Definitely The Latter Of The Two, I'd Much Rather Have The Bond Films Live In Nostalgia Than In Regret!


Who Would Make A Better Double Cross:

Bill Tanner (GoldenEye)

Or

Charles Robinson (TWINE)
