Daniel Craig / Albert Finney - Mathis is good, but Kincade shares some rather nice tender moments with Bond and M.


Return of the most useless henchman:

Machete wielding worshipper in 'Live And Let Die' who quickly gets shot by Bond twice

OR

Armed guard at Whitaker's villa who gets abused with a swift punch in 'The Living Daylights'

The 2nd one.

 

Would you rather see:-

 

A spin off movie called Jane Bond, about a female British spy

 

or

 

A musical James Bond movie called Nobody Does It Better, starring Hugh Jackman.

Daniel Craig / Albert Finney. Something very sincere about that duo.


BERENICE MARLOHE.

Bring her back for another Bond role, like Maud Adams did 9 years later.

OR

Leave her in the past, just another ill-fated actress to come and go.

Hmm..I'll go with the Smartphone that has some tracker and weapon..

 

Which will you be doing to get ready for the big day SPECTRE is released... Do a marathon of all previous Bonds (excluding or including NSNA, CR '54 and CR'67..your choice) OR No, just watching Skyfall is all I need to prepare?

I've done the marathon recently, so I will watch Skyfall one more time.

 

Which gadget would you prefer they used in Bond 25:-

 

A full duck outfit that allows Daniel Craig's James Bond to fly

 

or

 

A full fish costume that allows Bond to swim quickly underwater

I'm a TB fan so I'll pick the fish costume for 007.

 

Better villain having captive the damsel in distress scene:

 

Blofeld and Tracy at Piz Gloria in OHMSS
("If you're very nice to me I can make you my countess.")

 

or

 

006 and Natalya aboard his train in GE
("James and I shared everything")?

Connery and Armendariz - the best combo of them all IMO

 

 

What would you rather Bond did in Bond 25:-

 

Spend the entire movie dressed as a woman

 

or

 

Spend the entire movie dressed as a clown (same outfit as Octopussy)

Spend the entire movie dressed as a clown. Could be humorous and tense at the same time!


Will 'SPECTRE' outdo 'Skyfall' in the box-office?

YES - Riding the success from 2012, this is building on that to deliver some REAL 007 iconic elements

OR

NO - It will do well, but never hit the fever that the 50th Anniversary year created with 'Skyfall'

Yes, SPECTRE will outdo Skyfall. Too many iconic stuff for this one--the return of SPECTRE and Ernst Stavro Blofeld, a big menacing henchman, and--apparently--a fun Bond film to name a few. (But Bond 25 will not top SPECTRE.)

 

Better Bond / ally combination:

 

Timothy Dalton / Thomas Wheatley in The Living Daylights

Daniel Craig / Albert Finney in Skyfall

Timothy Dalton / Thomas Wheatley have everything for me. And really push 007 to the edge.


Who is the better businessman?

Auric Goldfinger of Auric Enterprises

OR

Max Zorin of Zorin Industries

Good question, but I will go with Max Zorin. He seemed to have more control over the microchip market than Goldfinger over the gold market.

Connery and Armendariz in FRWL

 

 

Good choice, PKK, re: costume.

 

Thank you, sir.

 

Better Bond confronts the villain scene:

 

Bond goes to the penthouse in the Whyte House to confront Willard Whyte and learns he is actually Blofeld who he thought died in the pretitle sequence of DAF

 

or

 

Bond goes to the graveyard of Soviet statues to confront Janus and learns he is actually 006 who he thought died in the pretitle sequence of GE?

Bond and Alec - has a great atmosphere to proceedings.

 

 

Who had the better "destroy the world and start again" plot?

 

Karl Stromberg - operating under the water

 

OR

 

Hugo Drax - operating from outer space

Drax operating from space. He seems to have thought out how his plan might work after destroying human life on earth. Stromberg never explains how everyone will live under the sea after WWIII.

 

Better Bond/2ndary Bond girl couple:

 

Bond(George Lazenby) and Ruby Bartlett(Angela Scoular) in OHMSS

 

or

 

Bond(Timothy Dalton) and Lupe Lamora(Talisa Soto) in LTK?

Gotta be 'Blofeld'! May as well be blunt about it.

 

 

'SPECTRE' - the Day of the Dead pre-titles, will it:

 

Be a one-off sequence, a big intro to the film and end soon after the credits

 

OR

 

Be a crucial point to the film and narrative, and be more important than just an opener

Crucial to the film.

 

Preferred singers for the Bond 25 theme called "Blofeld":-

 

Sam Smith & Adele

 

or

 

A-ha and Lulu

The helicopter 360 roll

 

OR

 

The plane crash landing

Definitely Thunderball. It started the wonderful tradition of having the actual Bond actor do the gunbarrel.

 

Which Blofeld actor/film mixup would work better:

 

Telly Savalas as Blofeld in Diamonds Are Forever

 

or

 

Charles Gray as Blofeld in On Her Majesty's Secret Service?
