[Double-Oh Agent]

I'll go with international.

 

Better Bond / Bond girl combination:

 

Sean Connery / Claudine Auger in Thunderball

 

or

 

Roger Moore / Barbara Bach in The Spy Who Loved Me

 

?

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Sean and Claudine in TB

 

Better last minute escape for 007:

 

The jet-pack escape from SPECTRE agent Colonel Jacques Bouvard's chateau in Thunderball

 

or

 

The hang glidder escape from the speedboat during the Amazon river chase in Moonraker?

[thecasinoroyale]

I'll go for the hang glider escape - something TOO convenient about the jetpack lying on the roof there waiting for Bond. Still good fun though.

 

 

Which villain's death did you feel was a bit...under-whelming:

 

Francisco Scaramanga shot in the heart in 'The Man With The Golden Gun'

 

OR

 

Elliott Carver drilled by a sea-vac drill in 'Tomorrow Never Dies'

 

??

[PrinceKamalKhan]

I liked Scaramanga's death scene just fine so I'll say Carver's in TND

 

Bond girl actress/character mixup:

Karin Dor as Domino Derval in TB

 

or

 

Claudine Auger as Helga Brandt/SPECTRE no. 11 in YOLT?

[thecasinoroyale]

I'd have liked to see more Auger - so her as Helga would be swell.


Which villain's death did you feel was a bit...under-whelming #2:

Renard impaled by a nuclear rod in 'TWINE'

or

Dominic Greene left to die in 'QOS'

??

[DaveBond21]

Renard's.

 

Greene's was great! - Left to slowly die and then eventually he was shot by his own people. But only after he'd had a drink of some oil...! Nasty!

 

Preferred title for Bond 25:-

 

Mr Bond Never Dies

 

or

 

The Woman who Knew Too Much

 

??

[PrinceKamalKhan]

The Woman who Knew Too Much

 

More effective Bond girl dies when running into the forest scene:

 

Tilly getting hit by Oddjob's bowler hat in Goldfinger

 

or

 

Corinne being fed to Drax's dobermans in Moonraker ?

[The Dove]

Tilly getting axed by Odd Job's hat..

Better useless henchman death.. Elvis, getting his pants blown off by the exploding hydrogen fuel cell in QOS OR Vargas, getting the point in TB??

[AMC Hornet]

Vargas. Always Vargas.

 

In the same vein:

 

Necros getting the boot

or

Stamper's stomper caught in the missile brace

?

[seawolfnyy]

Necros getting the boot.

 

 

Who would've had a better chance to take down Bond had they teamed up instead of going against Bond solo:

 

Stromberg and Drax

OR

Trevelyan and Silva

?

[AMC Hornet]

Trevelyan and Silva. As ex-agents, they'd be less likely to underestimate him.

 

In the same vein:

 

Dr. No and Goldfinger

or

Kamal and Zorin

?

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Doctor Julius No and Auric Goldfinger

 

Better Bond/secondary Bond girl couple:

 

Roger Moore and Kristina Wayborn/Magda in OP

 

or

 

Timothy Dalton and Talisa Soto/Lupe Lamora in LTK?

[The Dove]

Dalton and Talisa Soto in LTK..

 

Daniel Craig's Bond with Robert Brown's M, Timothy Dalton's Bond with Judi Dench's M OR Sean Connery's Bond with Ralph Fiennes' M ??

[Double-Oh Agent]

Gotta go with Bond's original boss Miles Messervy so it's Daniel Craig's Bond and Robert Brown's M.

 

Better Bond / Bond girl combination:

 

Timothy Dalton / Carey Lowell in Licence To Kill

 

or

 

Pierce Brosnan / Izabella Scorupco in GoldenEye

 

?

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Brosnan/Scorupco in GE(although my dream choice would be Dalton/Scorupco in GE)

 

Better pre-title sequence:

 

FYEO(London, Mrs. Bond's grave, helicopter, Blofeld in a wheelchair, "I'll buy you a delicatessen in stainless steel!")

 

or

 

AVTAK(Siberia, 003's frozen corpse, ski chase, snowboarding, "California Girls")?

[Double-Oh Agent]

Despite the "delicatessen in stainless steel" line, I'll go with For Your Eyes Only.

 

Better Bond / Bond girl combination:

 

George Lazenby / Diana Rigg in On Her Majesty's Secret Service

 

or

 

Daniel Craig / Eva Green in Casino Royale

 

?

[DaveBond21]

Lazenby and Rigg

 

 

Which father is more angry with James Bond:-

 

Mr Masterson - Bond got both of his daughters killed

 

or

 

Draco - after all he went through to help Bond, his daughter ended up dead on her wedding day

 

????

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Lazenby and Rigg

 

 

Which father is more angry with James Bond:-

 

Mr Masterson - Bond got both of his daughters killed

 

or

 

Draco - after all he went through to help Bond, his daughter ended up dead on her wedding day

 

????

Good challenge, DaveBond21!

I'm going to say Draco since he is the head of the Portuguese Mafia.


Better pre-title sequence:


The Living Daylights:(Dalton's introduction, Gibraltar, Smiert Spionam, Intruder, Linda)

or

 

Diamonds Are Forever: (Connery's reintroduction, C-C-Cairo!, Marie, mousetrap, mudbaths)?

[thecasinoroyale]

'The Living Daylights' for sure - brilliant debut actin sequence.


Best practical Bond stunt car roll:

360 for the AMC 'The Man With The Golden Gun'

OR

Numerous 360 for the Aston Martin in 'Casino Royale'

??

[Double-Oh Agent]

I'll go with the AMC Hornet's 360 in The Man With The Golden Gun.

 

Better Bond / Bond girl combination:

 

Sean Connery / Claudine Auger in Thunderball

 

or

 

Pierce Brosnan / Izabella Scorupco in GoldenEye

 

?

[thecasinoroyale]

Hm. Both good but I'll give the edge to Brosnan and Scorupco.
 
 
Best practical Bond ariel stunt:

Little Nellie takes flight in 'You Only Live Twice'

OR

The Acrostar takes flight in 'Octopussy'

??

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Both good but I'll go with Little Nellie in YOLT

Which Bond heroine/Bond film mixup would work better:

Melina Havelock in Licence To Kill

 

or

 

Pam Bouvier in For Your Eyes Only?

[thecasinoroyale]

DEFFO Pam Bouvier, such a good Bond girl.


Best practical Bond bike stunt:

Bond and Wai Lin jump the helicopter chassy in 'Tomorrow Never Dies'

OR

Bond jumps the barges in 'Quantum Of Solace'

??

[glidrose]

Bond and Wai Lin jump the helicopter chassy in 'Tomorrow Never Dies'

Better comic relief during a Bond stunt

Jaws flapping his arms.

 

Better Bond/Bond girl couple:

 

Sean Connery and Jill St. John in Diamonds Are Forever

 

or

 

Timothy Dalton and Maryam d'Abo in The Living Daylights?

[DaveBond21]

Dalton and A'bo

 

You are at the SPECTRE premiere. Who do you sit between:-

 

Sam Mendes and Daniel Craig

 

or

 

The Bond girls

 

??

[thecasinoroyale]

.....good one! I would love to be between Seydoux and Bellucci. 


Best practical Bond train stunt:

Bond fights Gobinda and then Grishka on the circus train in 'Octopussy'

OR

Bond fights Patrice on the passenger train in 'Skyfall'

?

[DaveBond21]

Octopussy. It's amazing how similar the Skyfall fight is - the trains and scenery seem so similsr.

 

You're at Elton John's post-Oscars party and Johnny Depp mentions that there is a "Bond Room". You find it and enter to find all 6 actors who played 007 in the room.

 

Who do you talk to first?

 

______________________________________________________________________________________________________________

[thecasinoroyale]

Gotta be Dalton - the man who was my first Bond! 

 

 

Cuts are tight. EON have to let someone go for 'Bond 25' onwards - who do you give the sack:

 

Michael G Wilson

 

OR

 

Barbara Broccoli

 

??

[glidrose]

Fire or sleep with?
