No

 

What would you prefer to see in Bond 25:-

 

Moneypenny out in the field again

 

or

 

Bond relaxing in a health spa again

Bond relaxing in a health spa again - could lead to good action or espionage.


Worst thing (if any!) about the Daniel Craig era:

Too serious, and 'real'

OR

All focused on one over-arching story which is too defining

Maybe a bit too serious

 

The next actor to play 007 will play the role:-

 

Even darker than Craig - very gritty - with the movies filmed in black & white, and even comic book style

 

or

 

Just like Brosnan

I think that they'll probably cut back on the dark and gritty Bond and try to find someone like Pierce Brosnan.

 

What is the next big SPECTRE unveiling or announcement that you are looking most forward to.. Teaser Trailer #2, the announcement of the title song artist, OR our first pics of filming from the Morocco locations?

Morocco pics. Been waiting soooooooooooo long!


A Bond film in Washington, DC - 007 must foil the villain's plot while also facing opposition from the CIA and FBI for invading "their" turf

Yea! or Nay... ???

Nay...that's sort of been done, the old "opposition" from agencies who should be allies.

 

Will James Bond last into the 30s (film-wise):

 

YES - They're at their prime once more and can only carry on stronger

 

OR

 

NO - Gradually it will peak and probably come to a fitting, natural end for 007 in the future

YES- Bond films will keep on rolling into the 30s and perhaps beyond..

 

 

Moneypenny mix-up... Samantha Bond's Moneypenny with Daniel Craig's 007 OR Naomie Harris' Moneypenny with Pierce Brosnan's 007?

Better Hellfire than a character from Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

 

SPECTRE: more like

 

Thunderball

or

Skyfall

?

The Eiffel Tower - a submarine, at night, would just be too dull.


Who deserved more films than they got:

Caroline Bliss as Miss. Moneypenny

OR

David Hedison as Felix Leiter

??

David Hedison as Felix Leiter. He is the best.

 

Better Largo:

 

Adolfo Celi as Emilio Largo (Thunderball)

 

or

 

Klaus Maria Brandauer as Maximillian Largo (Never Say Never Again)

 

?

Not annoying, just suspect. It's sounds like your sounding out ideas. Will Bond 25 include the credit 'Screenplay by John Logan writing as DaveBond21' (or vice versa)?

 

 

Adolpho Celi, BTW. A stock character, but better than an underplayed wimp.

 

Better instant seduction:

 

Saida in MWTGG

or

Manuela in MR

?

When all is said and done, which Thames River boat chase do you think will be the best? Bond and Madeline Swann chasing the helicopter in SPECTRE or Bond chasing after Cigar Girl in TWINE?

I'll stick with Bond chasing the Cigar Girl Giulietta da Vinci in The World Is Not Enough.

Donovan "Red" Grant

 

or

 

Oddjob

 

?

Oohh tricky one. I will go for Grant.

Bond and Countess Lisl drinking champagne at the beach house in FYEO

Bond and Magda's dinner in Octopussy

Bond & Magda poolside. I long to recreate that scene (somewhere that has a licensed poolside).

LALD;

TSWLM;

or

Both great, but my vote is for the dangerous Sanchez every time.

Max Zorin

 

OR

 

Dominic Greene

My two favorite villains in the franchise. I would have picked Sanchez too.

 

As for TCR's post, I'll go with Dominic Greene and his manipulative, scheming Napoleonic complex over Zorin's psychopathic billionaire.

 

Better Ian Fleming Bond girl:

 

Vesper Lynd

 

or

 

Tracy di Vicenzo

 

?

From that lot, I have to go with FYEO.

Too similar to TSWLM yes, but Sheena Easton...

AVTAK screams 1985 and little else, while LTK suggests MB had run out of ideas.

 

So, titles, eh?

 

DAF,

TMWTGG

M on the Run

'M on the Run' - I doubt they'd lose their head over a PA going missing :P


Will 'Spectre' end on:

A clear resolution and ending to make way for a new adventure with everything wrapped up as they need to

OR

A big cliff-hanger with the fate of many unknown, ready for another non-direct-sequel sequel in 'Bond 25'

Ooh my. Good one. I think...Daniel Craig. But only by a percentage as I've had an "Audience With..." Sir Roger Moore and was very close to him, so need some DC love.

 

 

Who had the best Bond debut shot:

 

 

Pierce Brosnan - Upside down in a toilet

 

OR

 

Timothy Dalton - Dramatic turn to camera
