Always liked Jenny Flex, and Alison Doody is a stunner.

 

 

EON are announcing a spin-off film for a Daneil Craig character. He will appear briefly at the end as 007 in the film about...

 

Rene Mathis and his time with the service and what happens after 'Casino Royale'

 

OR

 

Mr White and his time with Quantum and the dastardly journey his character takes leading to 'SPECTRE'

Mathis, I guess.

 

Preferred title for Bond 25:-

 

Nothing but a Number

 

or

 

Better Way to Die

"Nothing but A Number". The other title seems too similar to "Another Way To Die."

 

Always liked Jenny Flex, and Alison Doody is a stunner.

 

Agreed. She's my favorite AVTAK Bond girl.

 

Better "lovable" gangster ally:

Marc-Ange Draco(Gabriele Ferzetti, RIP) in OHMSS

 

or

 

Milos Columbo(Topol) in FYEO?

Ahh, Columbo is ok after all said and done. He's pretty harmless and a good guy.

 

 

 

Which Bond girl had the worse death:

 

Corrine in 'Moonraker'

 

OR

 

Vesper in 'Casino Royale'

Corrine being chomped to death by the pack of dogs is by far the nastier death..Thank god we were spared the gory details of the kill..

 

Rolls Royces in the Bond films...which was your favorite?  Goldfinger's Phantom III, the Silver Wraith in SPECTRE OR the Silver Cloud in AVTAK??

I actually prefer the Rolls in AVTAK

 

Preferred singer for Bond 25 theme:-

 

Sam Smith

 

or

 

Chris Cornell

Better secondary Bond girl from Thunderball:

 

Bahamian MI6 agent Paula Kaplan(Martine Beswick)

 

or

 

Shrublands physical therapist Patricia Fearing(Molly Peters)?

Paula was a welcome addition I think to the movie.

 

 

Which villain is most boring:

 

Vargas in 'Thunderball'

 

OR

 

Sandor in 'The Spy Who Loved Me'

Sandor in TSWLM. He makes less of an impression.

What would be a more cringe-worthy, clichéd plot twist for Bond 25:
Mathis is still alive
OR
Vesper is still alive
?

Vesper is still alive.(They should not have killed Mathis off IMHO).

 

Better Roger Moore-era opening:

 

The pre-title sequence in TMWTGG(Scaramanga vs. the Mafioso in the fun house)

 

or

 

the pre-title sequence in FYEO(Blofeld vs. Bond in the helicopter)?

Golden Gun.

 

At least it remained consistent. FYEO was brilliant up until Cubby shot it in the foot by insisting on the 'delicatessen' line.

 

In the same vein, the better PTS:

 

Octopussy

or

AVTAK

?

Octopussy. I love AVTAK's PTS, excepted for one thing....

Better finale:
YOLT
OR
TSWLM
?

YOLT. The ninja battle in the volcano is my favorite final battle scene in the series.

 

Better Bond/Bond girl couple:

 

James Bond and Stacey Sutton in AVTAK

 

or

 

James Bond and Christmas Jones in TWINE?

I say Christmas. Despite the bad joke about her name, at least there was no soap, Snooper or Tanya Roberts.

 

For those of you who were in your teens in the seventies, which image caused you to conjure more fervently:

 

Connery rolling onto Jill St. John while saying "I'm on top of the situation"

or

Moore locked thigh-to-thigh with Britt Eckland while telling M "she's just coming, sir"

?

Moore with Britt on the "slow boat from China."  Doesn't Connery leave Jill to go see "Willard" after that?

 

Continuing with the theme:

 

"Keeping the British end up"

 

OR

 

"Take me around the world one more time"

Both are excellent but I have to go for TSWLM

 

Bond has a comedy sidekick in Bond 25. Which would you prefer they went for:-

 

- a monicle-wearing dog called Smersh

 

or

 

- a wise-cracking old rapper played by Chris Rock

Moonraker, it's the only part of the film I can really stand.


Thunderball's finale
OR
Goldeneye's finale
?

'GoldenEye' - any speeding up footage in Bond never sits right with me.


On that note....worst use of speeded up footage:

The Disco Volante careering towards the rocks in 'Thunderball'

OR

Nearly every George Lazenby fight in 'OHMSS'

The Disco Volante careering towards the rocks in 'Thunderball', although it doesn't bother me at all.

Better PTS helicopter fight:

SP or FYEO?

Craig in TWINE.

 

Better ski chase in OHMSS:

"Sir Hilary Bray's" escape from Piz Gloria on Christmas Eve

 

or

 

Bond and Tracy later being pursued by Blofeld and company and end up being buried in an avalanche?

TWINE and Bond chasing Cigar Girl..

 

Which would be the more jolly Bond crowd to have at a Christmas party... Daniel Craig's Bond with Ben Whishaw, Naomi Harris, and Ralph Fiennes OR Pirece Brosnan's Bond with Colin Salmon, Samantha Bond, Judi Dench and Michael Kitchen??
