This story made me think. Bond was only in Cuba three movies ago in Goldeneye.

Iceland and Korea are new locations (although Bond does spend a lot of time in Asia) so that's good, but there are a lot of places Bond hasn't been yet in his 40 years.

He's never been to Australia or Africa. Although part of Diamonds Are Forever was set there Bond has never set foot on African soil as far as I can remember.

I'd be interested in anybody elses thoughts on where Bonds adventures should take him next.

Well I'd love to see Bond back in the Carribean, thats the ultimate Bond location I think.

Really, I don't mind, but I'd like to see one location used for most of the film. Like for example YOLT (Japan), DAF (Vegas) and OP (India). Yeah, they had scenes in other countries too, but most of the film was set in the one place, thats how I like it, gives more time to focus on the location, culture, atmosphere, etc. Makes the film unique too. :)

Bond was in Africa in The Spy Who Loved Me when he travelled to Egypt.

Bah of course!

Always forget that Egypt is in Africa.

D'oh!

Though, I think any future super villains might want to consider Oz for a secret hideout.

Unless, you want Ethan Hunt breathing down your neck I guess.
