Bus chase. It happened first, and the plane chase felt like the same scene with a different vehicle (second deck falls off bus, wings fall off plane).


Better scene from TWINE:

Elektra reveals her true colors to M in the pipeline control room

OR

High card showdown between Elektra and Valentin ?

Hmm..I actually think the scene between M and Elektra was very well played out..especially the moment when M slaps Elektra, thinking that she has been played like a sucker into allowing her best 00 agent to die in the bomb blast..

 

Biggest disappointment at a scene being cut... Renard's appearance in Bilbao in the pre-titles of TWINE OR M bailing James Bond out of the French prison in AVTAK?

M bailing Bond out of the French prison. One of my favorite deleted scenes from the whole series.


Better LTK scene:
Sanchez killing Krest
OR
Sanchez killing Truman-Lodge
?

I love both but I will opt for Krest

 

Which location would you prefer for Bond 25 PTS opening stunt:-

 

London - Big Ben

 

or

 

Paris - Eiffel Tower

We've had the Eiffel Tower, so gotta go for Big Ben. That could be nasty. Crushed between a cog or something. "He had a pressing engagement."

 

 

Which 007 actor deserved to deal with the Tracy story of 'OHMSS':

 

Sean Connery to end his 6 film run

 

or

 

Roger Moore to launch his 7 film run

While everyone would've loved to see it, Connery by then would not have done it justice. I'll go with Moore to kick off his tenure.

Bring over Hayley Atwell, and I'll go for the cast of 'Inception'.

Benedict Cumberbatch

 

OR

 

Eddie Redmayne

Benedict Cumberbatch as he is a bit older. Although, both would be great.

I'd say The Dark Knight cast... Christian Bale as Bond, Michael Caine as M, Heath Ledger as the villain, Cillian Murphy as Q, Maggie Gyllenhaal as the Bond girl who gets killed off as a result of Bond's "charm", Gary Oldman as Felix Leiter...hmm..not bad!

 

Say you were to be awarded "One million dollars, Mr. Bond..." for attempting one of Bond's famous stunt sequences yourself (with the proper safety equipment and supervision, obviously..) Which would you rather do...The Casino Royale crane climb and fight sequence in the Bahamas, the ski jump / parachute sequence from The Spy Who Loved Me, the Gibralter parachute landing scene from TLD OR the train rooftop fight from Skyfall?

Can I choose The Living Daylights, but instead the hanging onto the cargo net on the plane? If not, TSWLM.

Scarlett Johansson. She could be the new Bond for all I care. Just hire her!

 

 

More British talent for 'Bond 25':

 

 

Helen Mirren as the new head of MI5

 

or

 

Hugh Bonneville as the new head of MI6

Jurassic Park. Sam Neill - Bond. Laura Dern - Moneypenny. Jeff Goldblum - Felix. Richard Attenborough - M. B.D. Wong - Q. Samuel L. Jackson - villain. And Wayne Knight as the comic relief!


Better Goldfinger scene:

Outsmarting Goldfinger on the golf course

OR

Discussing Fort Knox plan over mint juleps ?

You choose the stunt for the PTS for Bond 25:-

 

Bond lands his jet ski onto the back of a boat on Lake Michigan

 

or

 

Bond and a Bond girl jump off the Empire State Building with parachutes

The briefing of the 00s in 'Thunderball'. 'TWINE' felt like a casual office gathering rather than a crisis meeting.

 

How is MI6 represented in yours eyes during the Bond films:

 

More inept than you thought; failing to spot criminal threats, getting hacked/bombed etc and housing rogue agents

 

OR

 

On fine form, dealing with everything swiftly and making sure nothing bad happens again with a crack team

More inept. Failing to discover that Miranda Frost or Vesper Lynd were moles was some pretty piss poor intelligence work.


Speaking of...which is the more inept moment for MI6:
Failing to discover Frost was a mole
OR
Failing to discover Vesper was a mole
?

Bond admitting he killed Anya's lover. Great acting by Moore.

 

Preferred title for Bond 26 with a new Bond actor starring:-

 

Miss Gold

 

or

 

The Deadly Venom

'The Deadly Venom' has a nice sinister ring to it

 

 

Better acting by Connery as 007:

 

Being stretched out in pain at Shrublands in 'Thunderball'

 

OR

 

Mourning Aki when she is assassinated in 'You Only Live Twice'

Better scene involving Moneypenny:-

 

OHMSS when she changes Bond's resignation letter

 

or

 

TND when she tells Bond he will have to "pump" Paris Carver for information

Horseback

Having a business card with R Sterling as the name
