Somehow I think Carver - he loved a little empire and would certainly be good in the media to be part of a wider criminal racket.


Should Auric Goldfinger have been a SPECTRE agent, referenced in the movie:

YES - One big criminal organisation linking all of Connery's movies

OR

NO - The stand-alone villain to show there is more out there than one organisation to stop

NO. I can't see Auric Goldfinger willing to be secondary to Blofeld. Those two would probably battle each other eventually(which might make a good plot in and of itself).

 

Better final battle scene:

 

The shootout in the sinking house in Venice at the end of CR'06

 

or

 

the battle atop the Meteora at the end of FYEO?

Henry Cavill

Has to be the 'Dr.No' trio - the original and best.

 

 

Do you think in 'SPECTRE' Oberhauser will be out to do what:

 

Ruin James Bond and MI6 personally

 

OR

 

Reveal a larger, global plan to be accomplished

The firetruck chase across San Francisco in AVTAK

The firetruck chase. Just feels a little more real, rather than the tank that destroys anything and everything in its path like a house of cards.

 

Do you think in 'SPECTRE' Bond will, if at all,...

 

Be kicked off active service (again) by M or a superior

 

OR

 

Quit off his own accord to follow his own agenda

I'm gonna go with GE (Natalya/Xenia and Caroline)

 

Moneypenny mix and match... Naomie Harris's Moneypenny with Timothy Dalton's 007, Samantha Bond's Moneypenny with Daniel Craig's 007 OR Lois Maxwell's Moneypenny with Pierce Brosnan's 007??

Better Bond girl character name in original script draft that was later changed for the completed film:

Trudi Parker instead of Corinne Dufour in MR

 

or

 

Paris Harmsway instead of Paris Carver in TND?

Gut feeling; will Monica Bellucci make it to the 'SPECTRE' credits alive:

 

YES - Following in the footsteps of Camille....er......yeah, ok just her for now.

 

OR

 

NO - Following in the footsteps of Vesper, Solange, Fields, M and Severine.

No. I think her character will die before the end credits roll.

 

 

1980s Bond villain/Bond girl mixup:

 

General Orlov(OP) meets Kara Milovy(TLD)

 

or

 

General Koskov(TLD) meets Magda(OP)?

"All Time High"...just too cheesy in terms of fitting a film which has such an awesome baddie combo of Kamal Khan and Gobinda..(Just watched OP last night myself..)

 

In your opinion, will all this garbage about Daniel Craig only doing another Bond film "for the money" kill some of the excitement and optimism for SPECTRE's impending release...YES or NO??

I have to admit that the SPECTRE trailer campaign has been better..

 

How many times do you plan on seeing SPECTRE in the theater? Only once, at least twice, or as many times as possible??  (For me, I saw Skyfall 4 times which is probably my limit but I do plan on seeing SPECTRE at least 3 times..)

Of those choices, I'd have to go with as many times as possible. I see each Bond film three times in the theater.

Julie Christie as Domino in Thunderball
