I will go for... 'Octopussy'. Both great fun pre-titles but I love the simplicity of the Moore era!
Which British X-Man would like you to see up on screen with Daniel Craig in 'Bond 24' as an enemy.
Sir Patrick Stewart
OR
Sir Ian McKellen

I suppose I'm more of a Patrick Stewart fan so him.

People seem to love the jet pack and smoking isn't cool anymore so.
Bond and Tanner playing backgammon in Bond 24
OR
Bond and Q playing chess
00?
Posted 19 May 2014 - 08:29 AM
Oh have to go for more Bond and Q interaction. Chess would be great!
Speaking of Q... what prototype gadget would like to see mentioned in 'Bond 24'
A hidden camera and microphone in a Queen chess piece
OR
A nerve gas emitting backgammon chip
??
Posted 19 May 2014 - 04:34 PM
Hmmm...I think it would be fun to see the nerve gas emitting backgammon chip..
Daniel Kleinman...do you think he'll be back to design the title sequence for Bond 24..YES or NO ??
Posted 19 May 2014 - 07:46 PM
I imagine they'll do everything they can to keep around the SF crew. So Yes.
Will the new M's office at the end of SF most certainly be in Bond 24
OR
Maybe not, the script might prove otherwise
00?
Posted 20 May 2014 - 07:52 AM
Yes - I think they'll keep the fan favourite classic moments there in 'Skyfall' we were teased with.
Would Sam Mendes be tempted back for a 3rd Bond film...?
YES - If everything works and the success is there that proves EON and audiences appreciate his work, he may well stay on
OR
NO - He's not going to become grounded to one franchise of films regardless of his successes, it ward hard enough confirming him to return once, never mind twice!
??
Posted 20 May 2014 - 04:26 PM
My gut feeling is NO...
With the announcement that Chiwetel Ejiofor's latest film project due to star filming this fall, when Bond 24 is also supposed to start filming, do you believe that he is no longer in contention to play the villain in Bond 24 ??
Posted 21 May 2014 - 01:15 AM
I don't think he ever was in contention. The impression I've been getting recently from EON is that they aren't as far a long as they would like to be. For example 'Sam Mendes gets Eon to Abandon the Idea of a Two Film Story' so how far along could they really be?.. I don't know, it just seems like films that are coming out after Bond 24 like Star Wars and the Man Of Steel sequel have given us more to go on.
Would you say The Bond films are best from
Beginning to End
OR
Newest to Oldest
00?
Posted 21 May 2014 - 07:18 AM
I'm a sucker for order for Beginning to End for best viewing pleasure
Are EON pretty bad at getting the wheels turning on the Bond movie production:
YES - Other films seem to make more progress, announcements and marketing and they are due out AFTER 'Bond 24', and EON come across as a little behind the times in getting the excitement up and running
OR
NO - They aren't going for the social media / internet craze of building up a movie before they are ready to provide details, and so this is all a careful, methodical strategy from EON
??
Posted 21 May 2014 - 07:29 PM
Most likely the latter.. They want to save all the juicy details for the big press conference.
Which Bond stunt would you rather do in real life, if you had the courage to attempt... Bond's mountaineering and climbing up a Las Vegas casino from DAF OR Bond's Q-Boat flip and mid-air twizzle jump from TWINE??
Posted 22 May 2014 - 01:08 AM
Although I'd rather be in Las Vegas than on the chillyThames, I'd also rather be closer to a yielding surface than fifty+ stories above the pavement. Plus, as my lady wants to go to London, I'll take the boat flip.
Would you rather:
Know everything about B24 before it's released
or
be surprised in Nov 2015
?
Posted 22 May 2014 - 07:25 AM
I want details details details BUT would wait to be surprised in November 2015 rather than blow it all early.
Dr. Kananga. Is he...
BOND VILLAIN!
or
BLAND VILLAIN!
??
Posted 22 May 2014 - 11:46 AM
Bond villain. I actually really enjoy Kananga and Live and Let Die, up until that stupid death scene.
2014 Champions League Final:
Real Madrid
OR
Atlético de Madrid
?
Posted 24 May 2014 - 06:18 PM
Tonight's the game isn't it? Atletico de Madrid has my vote.
Who is more likely to return for Bond 24;
Adele
OR
David Arnold
00?
Posted 27 May 2014 - 07:50 AM
Adele I reckon....but both have strong connections I think still, however if Mendes is there, Newman will be also.
Robert Davi. Is he...
BOND VILLAIN!
or
BLAND VILLAIN!
??
Posted 27 May 2014 - 04:38 PM
Definitely a BOND villain..
Elvis from Quantum of Solace...is he...a henchman OR a useless lump with a stupid looking toupee??
Posted 28 May 2014 - 06:28 AM
I think of him as more of an assistant then anything else but henchman because I would think he knows more about Greene's plan then most.
Finale scenes on a boat or on water battle #1;
DN

Has to be the simplicity of 'Dr.No'.
Kurt Jurgens as Karl Stromberg. Is he...
BOND VILLAIN!
or
BLAND VILLAIN!
??
Posted 28 May 2014 - 04:24 PM
He's definitely a BOND Villain..
M (Judi Dench)'s apartment..which did you like better...the one with its own elevator that Bond breaks into in Casino Royale OR her apartment in Skyfall? (can't really tell if she has the same apartment in Quantum of Solace as in Casino..)
Posted 29 May 2014 - 07:23 AM
I liked the 'Casino Royale' apartment. Seemed more suitable. The 'Skyfall' house seemed like second home or something. Far more ordinary, everyday.
Louis Jordan as Prince Kamal Khan. Is he...
BOND VILLAIN!
or
BLAND VILLAIN!
??
Posted 29 May 2014 - 03:13 PM
(John Barry's digs, ordinary?)
Nothing bland about Louis Jourdan.
Should B24 be more like:
a 60s Bond film
or
a 70s Bond film
or
an 80s Bond film
?
Posted 30 May 2014 - 07:37 AM
(By ordinary AMC, I meant it looked like a well furnished home, rather than an ultra-modern flat with self-lighting fire places and a lift.)
Robert Carlyle as Renard...
BOND VILLAIN!
or
BLAND VILLAIN!
??
Posted 30 May 2014 - 06:59 PM
BLAND...Had they given him more to do and not have the main focus on Elektra King as the villainess, Renard would have been great..
John Barry music cuts from Bond soundtracks... "Flight Into Space" from Moonraker OR "007 And Counting" from Diamonds Are Forever?
Posted 01 June 2014 - 07:56 PM
MR is one of my favorite soundtracks for MR.
Ending on water #2
DN
OR
YOLT
00?
Posted 02 June 2014 - 08:05 AM
'YOLT' is fun, but still love the simplicity of 'Dr.No' and no reversal footage as we have with the submarine.
Charles Gray as Ernst Stavro Blofeld...
BOND VILLAIN!
or
BLAND VILLAIN!
??
Posted 02 June 2014 - 05:43 PM

Looks like we skipped AMC's question... "Sorry about that, old boy!"
I'd say lets have it look like an 80's Bond..along the lines of The Living Daylights..
and to answer thecasinoroyale, Charles Gray as Blofeld.. BLANNNNDDD!!
By dressing up as the old lady and having his demise come at the hands of 007 bumping him ever so gently against the side of the building in his Bath-o-Sub...that's all you need..
Should Felix Leiter reappear in Bond 24....YES or No, lets have a new C.I.A. contact for 007?
Posted 02 June 2014 - 10:46 PM
Thank you for remembering me, Milos.
If the CIA has a role in B24, let it be Jeffrey Wright as Felix.
Best bikini stuffer:
Ursula Andress
Claudine Auger

Jill St. John
Trina Parks
Gloria Hendry
Britt Eckland
Caroline Munro

Hmm - perhaps this should be done in elimination rounds, or best per decade...
Posted 03 June 2014 - 07:19 AM
Well from those names listed....elimination in my own brain....I go for.... Claudine Auger. Everything about her is perfect, and she fills that bikini perfectly.
Jesper Christensen as Mr.White...
