Would it be possible?

Maybe, but I doubt that's the idea that they're using for Bond 22.

I'd like to at least see the hitman Rodan and the "building flooding from the top down" from that treatment make it into a Bond movie at some point.

Suppose that title has as good a chance as any other right now.

Never liked the title that much. I think "Risico" has a better chance at this point... but I have a instinctive feeling they won't use a Fleming title.

I've always wondered if they might start using some of Fleming's proposed and working titles for his books. For example, Mondays Are Hell (one of the Moonraker working titles). I always got a kick out of that title--it would at least make a cool title song. :)

I assumed HellIsHere meant, will Bond 22 be working from the Bond XVII treatment that's in the Dalton forum.

Is that what you meant, HIH, or did you just mean the title "The Property of a Lady"?

I'm still not too keen on TPoaL as a title, it always brings visions of a Merchant Ivory period drama, but it did come to mind as soon as Bond told Vesper "I'm yours" in the CR trailer.

I think that's a fascinating idea (I remember that old script from another thread). I would love to see that in a Bond film. Has the potential of a cracking sequence if done right.

I think that because of its appearance in Octopussy (both title and story), it won't be used.

I figure Risico has the best chance. It just sounds like a much better title to follow Casino Royale. Anyway, that's if they go with a Fleming title. I think that's a pretty big if to be honest. I see it happening, but I think the more likely scenario is that the title will be original like the last 5.

I think it definately has a chance, actually. The title ties in with certain parts of CR. :)

That might've been a concern when (if) it was up for the title of Dalton's third, but I don't think it matters anymore, since OP will be 25 years old by the time Bond 22 comes out.

Also, the phrase "the world is not enough" was used in On Her Majesty's Secret Service 30 years before it became a movie title.
