A return to New Orleans

 

For Your Eyes Only elements for future films:-

 

Killing an old adversary off during the PTS

 

or

 

Car chase using an old car

Car chase using an old car - certainly proved it could be done and was just as exciting.

 

 

Should we have more London-based action in future Bond films, keeping the danger close to home and using the capital city?

 

NO - It's been done enough and 'Skyfall' peaked with London-based action and drama

 

OR

 

YES - It's a fantastic city and still hasn't been used as much as it could to deliver some great Bond action

 

??

More displaced main title songs. Another Way to Die on:

Licence to Kill

OR

Die Another Day

Die Another Day... those two travesties just belong together somehow ;)

 

 

Which general plot could more easily be reworked for the present-day in a new Bond film:

 

From Russia with Love - Stealing enemy tech with unseen help from another adversary

 

OR

 

Diamonds Are Forever - Villain impersonates highly influential and reclusive public figure as a front for smuggling ?

Probably the DAF plot.. If we tried to do a modern day FRWL plot, we might risk upsetting some dictator like Kim Jong -Un again.. :D

 

Do you think we'll get to see Bond gambling at a Casino in SPECTRE, and if so, what game would you like to see? YES and Baccarat, YES and Poker OR NO, I don't think there'll be a casino scene this time around?

Which title would you prefer for the new actor and Bond 26:-

 

That Man Did Bad

 

or

 

007 Goes AWOL

 

???

Both AWFUL, but 'That Man Did Bad' could be interesting...!

 

 

Which is the laziest and groan inducing name in 'Die Another Day':

 

Miranda Frost - A clever name relating mirroring her cold-heart. Or actually just all the ice and snow she's featured in

 

OR

 

Mr Kil - Now there's a name to DIE for, literally, using no imagination and sounding like a Bond spoof

McCartney

 

OR

 

Tom Jones ?

Sir Paul certainly. An edge, not a ballad. Cornell's YKMN had that punch that LALD did and had been missing. Coupled with the title design, it was epic IMO for the reboot.

 

Put Bond back behind the wheel of a Bentley

 

or

 

Carry on with Aston Martin?

 

Obviously, this would be for Bond 25.

Aston Martin. It's the car of the cinematic James Bond.

Beyoncé

OR

Katy Perry

?

Which scene would you like to see in Bond 25:-

 

Bond is thrown into a pool of piranhas, but manages to kill them all with one of Q's gadgets

 

or

 

Bond and the Bond girl escape the henchman by flying a mini-helicopter out of an underground cave entrance?

Pit of piranhas. Just as he's thrown into the pool of beasties, Bond drops a device (lighter/pen/watch/keyring fob) that is actually a taser. It shocks all the teethy bastards right before he hits the water. He swims to safety. Give him a one liner after.

 

Bond is atop a skyscraper dodging gunfire and running out of options. 

 

Rescued by Bond girl making a last ditch pass via hang glider

 

or

 

Plays "cat and mouse" with the thugs (say three) resulting in him throwing each one off the top one by one?

Has to be "cat and mouse" - that'd be hilarious to see, in a wonderfully dark and sinister way.

 

 

Which 'Licence To Kill' death was the best:

 

Dario falls into the grinder

 

OR

 

Krests head explodes

 

??

 ( Perhaps we could have a reprise of "Three Blind Mice" from Dr. No to be played over that sequence! :))

 

Anyways, I think Dario's death was better...although it didn't have a witty one-liner afterwards, like Krest's  "What about the money, Patron? Launder it!"

 

 Following SPECTRE's release, do you think we'll get a new Bond videogame based on the movie?  YES, they should redeem themselves after 007 Legends or NO, they'll probably wait til Bond 25?

Yes, a new game would satiate the game crowd and prove that 007 gaming wasn't dead. It would depend on both the concept and the company and not per-se based on SPECTRE. Blood Stone was pretty well done IMO.

 

Now...Bond Gadget:

 

Travel umbrella shotgun

 

or

 

Travel umbrella descending device - Fires an anchoring piton into whatever surface, Bond holds onto the handle and it lowers him from whatever height (say 200 feet) decelerating.

I'd like to see the umbrella with the piton..something that is less common than the shotgun umbrella idea..

The red light/green light above M's office door.. Do you think we'll get a return of it in SPECTRE?
Yes or No?

NO I don't think it'll appear.

In BOND 25, the pre-title sequence will:

- feature a sequence without Bond and focus on the villains plot.

OR

- feature a sequence with Bond and no connection to the plot.

Feature a sequence with Bond and no connection to plot. Although those days may be gone now, I'd love to see a return to the standalone PTS.

 

Better ally:-

 

Columbo in FYEO

 

or

 

Tiger in YOLT

Columbo. Topol is just too much fun!

 

 

Better post-Bond work for a former ally:

 

Jack Lord (Felix Leiter in Dr. No) - Hawaii 5-0

 

OR

 

Rowan Atkinson (Nigel Small-Fawcett in Never Say Never Again) - Blackadder

Blackadder, although Rowan Atkinson was already famous when he made NSNA

 

 

Which comedy ally would you prefer they created for Bond 25:-

 

Octobubble, a talking robot octopus, who helps Bond fight villains underwater

 

or

 

Ratty - an actual pet rat that 007 takes everywhere with him

Weill we get a new James Bond video games in the next year?

 

YES - New Bond film, and a 3 year break from the last game, time to try again

 

OR

 

NO - '007: Legends' was the nail in the gamers coffin

Which is better photographed?

CR'54

However, having been to both, I can't decide between:

 

Bangkok

or

Rio
