I think Javier Bardem as Trevelyan would have been very interesting indeed!

 

 

" Gumbold's Safe" from the OHMSS soundtrack used for when Bond and Scaramanga are playing cat and mouse in the Fun House in TMWTGG OR "Scaramanga's Fun House" from TMWTGG soundtrack for Bond breaking into Gumbold's safe in OHMSS?

[thecasinoroyale]

I think "Gumbold's Safe" for the Bond / Scaramanga cat and mouse sequence.

 

 

Which Bond girl would have liked to see even more of:

 

Gemma Arterton as Strawberry Fields in 'Quantum Of Solace'

 

OR

 

Berenice Malrohe as Severine in 'Skyfall'

 

??

[S K Y F A L L]

Berenice Malrohe I suppose. Tough one. 

 

 

Will Craig be done with Bond as planned 

 

OR 

 

Do you think there might be a chance he could do Bond 26 or/and even Bond 27

 

00?

[seawolfnyy]

I'll think he'll be done. We don't need another 55 year old Bond.

 

 

Will Bond 25 release in:

2017

or

2018

?

[The Dove]

*looking into my crystal ball* I think Bond 25 will be out in 2017... I have a feeling that there may be just a slight hint of truth to those rumors about Bond 24 and 25 being a two-arc story. John Logan could very well start developing Bond 25's script while Bond 24 is nearing the end of production and thus get the wheels ready for a 2017 release.

 

Bond Gunbarrel theme switch around... "For Your Eyes Only"'s post-disco type theme for the opening of "Goldeneye" OR "Goldeneye"'s uber-90's electronica theme for the opening of "For Your Eyes Only"? Which would be more entertaining?

[S K Y F A L L]

Tough one yet again. FYEO opening for GE.

 

 

Dalton in TLD-DAD

 

OR

 

Brosnan in TLD-DAD

 

00?

[seawolfnyy]

Tough one yet again. FYEO opening for GE.

Agreed. If there is one thing I don't like about GE, it's the music during the gunbarrel. In my opinion, Die Another Day actually had the best music for it's gunbarrel (well Everything or Nothing really does, but generally that one isn't counted).

 

 

Dalton TLD-DAD

 

Lazenby in DAF

OR

Connery in OHMSS

?

[thecasinoroyale]

I can't stand Lazenby, so I'll go for Connery in 'OHMSS'.

 

 

Did Roger Moore deserve more upbeat Bond theme songs for his films ('TSWLM', 'MR', 'FYEO', 'OP')...

 

YES - He was robbed of more fast paced, exciting openings like he started and ended with

 

OR

 

NO - The majority of slow, sensual opening themes complimented his style

 

??

[seawolfnyy]

I will say no, just due to the sheer fact that 'Nobody Does It Better' and 'For Your Eyes Only' are two of the best Bond songs. 'Moonraker' on the other hand, well let's just not talk about that....

 

 

 

For the next Bond game, would you rather it be:

Short, only a few hours long so it feels exactly like a movie

OR

Long and drawn out more in the vain of Tomb Raider or Uncharted

?

[The Dove]

Short, probably about the length that Bloodstone was..that was a great game!

 

Bond 24....do you think that John Logan, Barbara Broccoli and Michael Wilson have a proper title in mind already OR not yet?

[AMC Hornet]

Yes, but the fax to MGM will be unclear and the misinterpreted title will stick - again.

 

Bollinger or Dom Perrignon?

[seawolfnyy]

Hey, admittedly Tomorrow Never Dies is a better title than Tomorrow Never Lies. Also, agreed Dove, Blood Stone was criminally underappreciated and fantastic game. However, I felt the story could've used a bit more polish. Thankfully, they've finally canned Bruce Fierstein after the god-awful game we shall not mention ever again....

 

 

Are the rumors true and Peter Capaldi will only play the Doctor for one series:

Yes

OR

No

?

[The Dove]

You forgot to answer AMC's this or that... so I'll go with Dom Perignon (not that I've been fortunate to have actually tried either..hopefully one of these days!)

 

Now, regarding the Peter Capaldi rumors...umm No, I guess..

 

 

Who would be a better 007 #7... Sean Lazenby. Daniel Dalton, Pierce Craig, Roger Brosnan, George Moore OR Timothy Connery?

[S K Y F A L L]

Good one. Timothy Connery.

 

 

The GE dam bungee jump

 

OR

 

the SF train fall

 

00?

[thecasinoroyale]

.....hmm. In terms of stunt work and cinematography, I go for the 'GoldenEye' bungee. But if it is in regards to the whole sequence itself (music, camera, acting, sound etc) I go 'Skyfall'.

 

Will we ever have a black actor play James Bond?

 

YES - After strong Idris Elba rumours and the ever changing, accepting turn in pop culture and society, it may happen in the future

 

OR

 

NO - 007 was white in the novels and through the films, so EON will never break the mould and go different

 

??

[seawolfnyy]

You forgot to answer AMC's this or that... so I'll go with Dom Perignon (not that I've been fortunate to have actually tried either..hopefully one of these days!)

Whoops, my bad. Thanks Dove, and since I forgot to include it, my answer also would have been Dom Perignon.

 

As for tcr's, honestly, I wouldn't mind a Black Bond. If the script were good and it was the right actor, I could completely get behind it. Having said that, I'm going to say that no we will not have a black Bond.

 

 

 

Beluga

OR

Zukovsky's Finest

?

[thecasinoroyale]

I'm afraid I'll have to stick with Beluga - who knows what Zukovsky has in his brand...!

 

 

What mode of transport should return in Bond 24/25 for an action sequence....

 

An airship (last seen in 1985)

 

OR

 

A tuk-tuk (last seen in 1983)

 

??

[The Dove]

I'd go with an airship but this time soup it up a bit with some machine guns and rocket launchers and such...

Bond 24...will it be about the same length as Skyfall (2 hrs and 21 mins) or shorter??

[thecasinoroyale]

I think shorter, there was a LOT to develop and tie-up in 'Skyfall' so I think the next outing will be shorter, around the 2hr mark.

 

 

Do you think we will ever see Bond ill, as in naturally run-down with a virus or something on screen?

 

NO - It's part of his super-human portrayal, he never gets ill except a little poison here or there

 

OR

 

YES - Soon we will see Bond suffer for a part of the film, run down and having to be careful in his methods of work

 

??

[seawolfnyy]

It would be interesting, but probably not.

 

 

 

So, ignoring the debate as to whether the Craig films are prequels or a separate series, will we ever get a new Bond film set sometime prior to the previous one:

Yes

OR

No

?

[The Dove]

No..it would get too confusing I think.

 

With confirmation that Bond will be getting a new Aston Martin in Bond 24, should he also get a new model of Walther? YES or NO?

[thecasinoroyale]

....I want to say no. The P99 was just too big to be carried around by an MI6 agent comfortably. The PPK is classic, but also makes so much sense to carry for an agent like 007; it packs a punch and doesn't weigh him down. I'd like it to stay!

 

 

The old favourite....the gunbarrel! Will it return at the start of 'Bond 24':

 

YES - Sam Mendes wanted it at the start of 'Skyfall' so he will make sure he gets it this time!

 

OR

 

NO - More evidence proves it's working at the end, so that will continue

 

??

[S K Y F A L L]

NO. I think it should remain at the end of the films while Craig stars in them and let Bond 7 bring it back to the start. 

 

 

Bond 24 cameo'

 

Weird Al Yankovic

 

OR 

 

Jerry Seinfeld 

 

00?

[seawolfnyy]

Seinfeld with the PTS having Bond tracking down the soup nazi.

 

 

 

Worse screenwriter for Bond:

Dr. Seuss

OR

Stephanie Meyer

?

[The Dove]

Stephanie Meyers...I don't want 007 to be anywhere near that Twilight garbage!

Who would be the worse choice for the Bond 24 title singer...One Direction OR Justin Bieber??

[seawolfnyy]

I think they're equally awful, but since the game necessitates a winner I'll pick One Direction. However, in this race, we'd all be losers.

 

 

 

Worse thing Bond could be doing when he gets an emergency contact from MI6:

Getting tested for an STD

OR

Having a colonoscopy

?

[S K Y F A L L]

Getting tested for an STD....

 

 

 

The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo 

 

OR 

 

Cowboys and Aliens 

 

00?

[The Dove]

Definitely go with The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo (Sony and David Fincher had better get moving with "Fire..." and "Hornet's Nest.." though we may have already passed the point of irrelevancy.. Here's hoping that after Craig is done with Bond 24, he and Rooney Mara get onto filming both sequels at once..)

 

The villain of Bond 24...do you think that Broccoli and Wilson will again try to get a big name actor (a la Javier Bardem) for the role OR go with a relatively unknown actor for the part?

[S K Y F A L L]

I don't think they will go with an unknown actor since it would be pretty easy to find a A list celebrity to fill the role IMO.

 

 

If they created a Bond tv series based on the novels would you rather it be 

 

CGI

 

or

 

Cartoon

 

00?

[thecasinoroyale]

Hmm. I think CGI would be the best way, they could do a decent job to try and keep it as "real" as possible.

 

 

Will technology ever worm it's way into drastically changing the way James Bond films are made?

 

YES - Times have to change, and soon we may even have a 3D Bond adventure, and god knows what else in future

 

OR

 

NO - The original and best, EON will avoid the frills and stick to basic film-making as it works
