To follow on from "quantum of solice",a good title of Ian Flemings,would be called "The Diamond Smuglers" it was a story from Fleming but not a bond title,at the end of that story it could see the return of "quantum" which could lead into bond 24 "Risico" and then "Property of a lady" with the return of "camille"for bond 25,and could keep its back to flemming approach for a dark bond,and the continuing 60"s,but up to date,and not over the top false action sequenses, feel to the last 2 films..your thoughts on the story would be appriciated...

No offense, but I don't think this warrants its own topic.

Those titles have been suggested countless times, but unless the title makes sense in the context of the film, then "no."

How about Chitty Chitty Bang Bang as the title of Bond 26? It's pure Fleming!

First, learn about Uppercase's and Spaces. Your text is very hard to read. Second off, you don't have any reason for each title.

Yes, there's quite a few people on here who need to do this. Quantumofsolace007 for one.

The Diamond Smugglers is not a Bond story, and its title its not Bondian. IMO, the most difficult part in writing a Bond script is finding a good title.

Look, I don't mean to be rude. I just get easily annoyed by people who post like that on forums. It's no excuse to say that you've gotten 'lazy'. People on here should be respectful and think about the other members who have to sit and translate their posts, because the original poster isn't decent enough to apply some kind of grammar and punctuation to them.

I was guilty of this when I first joined, and you wouldn't know how many people I pissed off. I motivated myself to double check my posts, looking for errors and grammar.

But you didn't check your spelling of "grammar"..... B)

Well, I've always been told to spell it with an 'a', as 'Gramma'.

EDIT: Yes, that is indeed the correct spelling. It still doesn't change my point though.

"Gramma" is an informal way to describe one's "grandmother," not shorthand for "grammar."

I suspect that you may have been typing "grammer" and then someone said "you spell it with an "a", and you didn't realise that they meant that you keep the "r" on the end.

I agree with Mharkin's point. Sure, he naively made one spelling mistake in this thread, but on the whole his grammar on this forum is fine. The issue is with the main offenders who are illiterate in the entirety of their posts, with no use of paragraphs or punctuation. There has to be a basic level of pride and quality.

No, it's not solely British since most people I know (including myself) say grandma when referring to their grandmothers.

In my previous post, I used the gramma 'cause Mharkin was using it.

Oh, cool, thanks for that. Yes, I brought my Grandma into this discussion for the same reason. Of course, she really thinks that James Bond is a bit silly. My other Grandma (RIP) would have said that Daniel Craig is cute, and would have wished that she was 50 years younger!!! :)

There's already dozens of threads on this.
