On Her Majesty's Secret Service. (Just what I was thinking about EON, Dove!)


Which 00 didn't deserve to die that way...

004 (The Living Daylights)

Would you rather have....

Tatiana Romanova instead of Anya Amasova in The Spy Who Loved Me

or

Anya Amasova instead of Pola Ivanova in A View to a Kill?

Anya Amasova instead of Pola Ivanova in 'A View To A Kill'. A film far below the character's calibre, but would have been a nice touch to see one of Moore's girls bump into him on another mission, working well with Gogol too. Good idea actually, shame it never came about.



What item would you love to see Bond plug in 'Skyfall' in the product placement race...

A brand new razor

OR

A decent coffee maker

Daniel Craig's Bond meets Paris Carver..

A famous athlete is cast as a baddie to challenge 007 to a particular sport: Kobe Bryant challenging Bond to a One-On-One game of basketball OR David Beckham challenging Bond to a game of football (soccer) ?

Kobe Bryant challenging Bond to a One-On-One game of basketball...maybe the ball could be a bomb or something...anything but Beckham in a Bond!!


Movie Bond crossovers....

James Bond is mentioned in 'The Dark Knight Rises' as someone Bruce Wayne thinks he is

OR

James Bond music is heard and played during 'Man Of Steel' as Clark Kent takes Lois Lane on a date to the movies

Australia.

Better early script draft name for a character that was changed in the final shooting script:

Gala Brand instead of Miranda Frost in Die Another Day

or

Sidney Winch instead of Wai Lin in Tomorrow Never Dies?

Gala Brand instead of Miranda Frost in 'Die Another Day'...Frost is so cliche in the theme of that film. Suprised Gustav wasn't called 'Gustav Cold'.


Best villain henchman death:


Gettler getting a nail in the eye in 'Casino Royale'

Elvis being blown away in 'Quantum Of Solace'

Gettler getting a nail in the eye in 'Casino Royale' (Elvis's death was much more appreciated by me, however.)

Most powerful male vocalist for a Bond theme:

Chris Cornell or Tom Jones?

Bond dropping Blofeld's wheelchair down the smokestack in For Your Eyes Only..

The most OBVIOUS shot of a miniature or model usage in a Bond film: The model boat of Anya, Stromberg and the guards hitting the water after it has been launched from the Liparus in TSWLM OR the shot of Piz Gloria exploding in OHMSS?

Jaws and OddJob...could be very sinister in the Craig era I think.


Best use of an everyday item to help dispatch a Bond baddie:


A handtowel: Used to whip, strangle and throw down a bad guy, as seen on board the yacht in 'GoldenEye'

OR

A bucket: Used to knock a larger man out by swinging out to impact on the jaw, as seen in the sauna also in 'GoldenEye'

San Fransisco. Still think the Golden Gate Bridge was used perfectly in 'AVTAK' and would love to see it agian.


Which Bond film dissapointed more, looking back...

'Quantum Of Solace'

OR

'Die Another Day'

After Thomas Newman, the NEXT non-David Arnold composer for a Bond score you'd like to see take a crack at it: Hans Zimmer (Batman Begins, The Dark Knight, The Dark Knight Rises, Inception etc..) OR Trent Reznor ( 2011 - The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo, The Social Network) ?

Felix Leiter instead of Jack Wade in GoldenEye ?

Felix Leiter instead of Jack Wade in 'GoldenEye'. For some reason, Wade has never struck me as a memorable or needed character. It would have been nice for Brosnan to have his Felix for a film or two at least.


Future Bond-villain is cast as...

Arnold Schwarzenegger

Sylvester Stallone

Hmm.. I guess Sylvester Stallone as a future Bond villian..but I would hope the screenwriters avoid 007 getting into major punch ups with him, because then it'll be a case of who could whoop who's [censored]..James Bond or Rocky.. lol..

Better future Bond cover name (making these up myself): Mr Jeffrey Bloodworth OR Mr. Jonathan Baxter ? LOL..

Mr Jeffrey Bloodworth... as an air of Bond-cliche about it, but also very Fleming-esque.


What phrase by non-Bond fans in relation to the films grates you more...


"Look, if you've seen one, you've seen them all. They're all the same...!"

OR

"Yeah, yeah, James Bond sh*gs a girl and saves the world, boring...!"

Grr...BOTH of these I've heard from non-Bond fans and both irritate me to death..but the worst has to be "Look, if you've seen one, you've seen them all..They're all the same.." *facepalm*

The WORSE of the two nightmare scenarios: Quentin Tarantino FINALLY is allowed to direct a future Bond film OR George Lucus directs one, but then makes several versions and alterations like he did with Star Wars?

Orlando Bloom

Neither really but I'll say Bloom because I'm a fan of "Lord of the Rings".

George Lazenby's Bond meets Naomi from TSWLM?
