I only want to see on this post good and serious titles. We did this numerous times before, but now I only want to see POSSIBLE Bond 21 titles in large fonts, and NO comments on it. Everyone should come up with only ONE possible Bond title. I will judge them, and I'm going to name a winner after a few weeks. Let's say.......two weeks from now. The winner will get good comments from me and what a possible story could be, and perhaps more.....;-)

I'm not going to take part in this competition, but here's a good example.

My dear Mr *, you must admit that all of those titles of my paintings have a very flemingesqe flavour to them. they're DAMN good, wouldnt u agree? :)


I will not admit thing until the competition is completed. :)

However, let's play by the rules here. You have to pick which title to submit to the competition. Having the judge pick would give you an unfair advantage.

Well, it was very difficult. But I've made the following choice. Jimmy Bond had a very good title: A BREATH BEFORE DYING. It sounds very nice. But that title suggests that there SHOULD be someone, who MUST die, before he or she had his or her last breath. In that case, it's not a too good title, but I'v choosen this one, because it sounded very nice. Ronson's title HONOUR AMONG SPIES could be used very easily for a Bond movie. It's simple, and it can suggest some insights in Her Majesty's Secret Service. But nevertheless, it's not that original. I was thinking straight away of HONOUR AMONG THIEVES. Then, I had it very difficult with the following titles. ONLY GODS LIVE FOREVER by ray t and DEATH WAITS FOR NO MAN by Mouse. The first title is very original! It could be something said by the main villain: "Only Gods live forever 007, and (laughing)......I'm almost a god (laughing)!!!!!!". The last title by Mouse is also very good. I like that one very much. But for a change it would be nice to have no 'death','kill' or 'die' in the title. So original, but compared to the other Bond titles, there are some better ones.

So.......the winner is????????????????????????

Pierce Brosnan

as Ian Flemings
James Bond
007

in

ray t's
ONLY GODS LIVE FOREVER

So..............ray t, YOU are the winner ;-)

It's difficult to choose. I've read some very good titles, but you've got still the time till midnight to come up with a very good alternative James Bond 21 title. But remember, only ONE title, okay? Till after midnight, when I'm going to pronounce the winner :-)
