TLD. More variety, and introduced a great Bond.

 

Better bathtub moment:

 

Bonita (GF)

 

or

 

Fiona (TB)

 

?

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Fiona(TB). Or as I like to say Volpe. Definitely Volpe.

 

 

Ooh the scenario where Dalton's Bond teams up with Melina sounds very intriguing indeed!

 

 

 

Agreed. They're my dream "parallel universe" Bond & Bond girl couple.

 

 

Dalton's Bond meets Tilly Masterson alias "Soames"(GF)

 

or

 

Lazenby's Bond meets Jill Masterson a.k.a. the "Golden Girl"?

[DaveBond21]

Lazenby with Jill is the better combination.

 

Preferred Q Lab scene:-

 

 - analysing the bullet in TMWTGG

 

or

 

- the Identigraph in FYEO

 

??

[Eskyfall]

The Identigraph. I always found Q incredibly annoying in TMWTGG. 

 

 

More whiny Bond girl:

Mary Goodnight

OR

Pam Bouvier

?

[The Dove]

Definitely Mary Goodnight..

 

Which was the more regrettable Bond ally death.. Vijay in Octopussy or Mathis in Quantum of Solace?

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Mathis in QOS. The series should've kept his character alive and made him a regular IMHO.

 

Which TSWLM/MR mix-up would you rather watch?

1977 Moore Bond teams up with Lois Chiles' Holly to battle Curt Jurgens' Karl Stromberg in outer space

 

or

 

1979 Moore Bond teams ups with Barbara Bach's Triple X to battle Michael Lonsdale's Sir Hugo Drax underwater?

[Eskyfall]

Barbara Bach, love her. I never much cared for Lois Chiles.

 

 

Which Bond girl would you rather have eliminated from their films without being replaced:

Christmas Jones

OR

Rosie Carver

?

[The Dove]

Christmas Jones...at least Rosie Carver's role was pretty brief, and I'm not trying to sound morbid or horrible or anything. Dr.Jones was one of the main Bond girls. That role should have been rewritten.

 

 

Bond vs henchmen fights..mix-up.. Daniel Craig takes on Draco's men on the beach in Portugal in OHMSS, Timothy Dalton takes on Stamper's men in the recording studio in TND, or  Sean Connery takes on Zorin's thugs with the shotgun full of rock salt in AVTAK?

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Craig's Bond battling Draco's men on the Portuguese beach in OHMSS would be an impressive fight/mixup.

 

Bond villain/Masterson sister mixup:

Francisco Scaramanga meets Jill Masterson

 

or

 

Aristotle Kristatos meets Tilly Masterson?

[Eskyfall]

Scaramanga meeting Jill Masterson.

 

 

More outlandish non-OTT villain plot:

Quantum creating a drought in Bolivia and installing a puppet government to become its utilities provider

OR

Killing a world-famous, face-unknown assassin, who happens to also have the very item that Bond was tracking in the first place

?

[The Dove]

Quantum creating the drought in Bolivia..It could very well happen in real life.

 

John Barry Bond soundtrack cues...which do you like best?  "The Chase Bomb Theme" - Octopussy, "Hip's Trip" - The Man With The Golden Gun, or "007 and Counting" - Diamonds Are Forever?

[AMC Hornet]

Three excellent selections, and after careful deliberation I choose '007 and Counting'.

It captures both the majesty of space (a la YOLT's 'Capsule in Space') and the glamour of the laser satellite unfurling.

 

In the same vein:

Underwater Mayhem (TB)

Bond Averts WWIII (YOLT)

or

George Martin's Underground Lair (LALD)

?

[DaveBond21]

TB's Underwater mayhem

 

Preferred chase scene:-

 

YOLT car chase

 

or

 

Octopussy tuk-tuk chase

 

??

[PrinceKamalKhan]

YOLT car chase. "It's just a drop in the ocean."

 

More effective villain:

 

The unnamed bald villain in the wheelchair from the PTS of FYEO

 

or

 

Franz Oberhauser from SPECTRE?

[The Dove]

Definitely Oberhauser in SPECTRE..

 

Marc Lawrence..which gangster character was he better as...the hearse driver in Diamonds Are Forever or as Rodney in The Man With The Golden Gun?

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Of course there's that theory that Marc Lawrence is playing the same character in both films but I'll say Rodney in TMWTGG.

 

Better Bond/villainess mixup:

 

George Lazenby's Bond meets Karin Dor's Helga Brandt a.k.a. SPECTRE No. 11 from YOLT

 

or

 

Timothy Dalton's Bond meets Alison Doody's Jenny Flex from AVTAK?

[Eskyfall]

Lazenby meets Helga Brandt.

 

 

Bond/blockbuster mashup:

 

Bond is sent to Isla Nublar to rescue some people from rampaging dinosaurs in Jurassic Park is Forever

OR
Bond must stop a rogue shark from terrorizing beach goers off the coast of Amity in JawsFinger

?

[PrinceKamalKhan]

JawsFinger

 

More potentially dangerous OP/TLD villain mixup:

Prince Kamal Khan(OP) concocts a scheme with General Georgi Koskov(TLD)

 

or

 

Brad Whitaker(TLD) concocts a scheme with General Orlov(OP)?

[DaveBond21]

Whitaker and Orlov, just to watch all of the over-acting

 

Preferred title for Bond 25:-

 

Shatterhand

 

or

 

Risico

 

??

[Eskyfall]

Shatterhand.

Bond/blockbuster mash up 2:
Bond battles a rival archaeologist and Nazis to find the ark of the covenant in James Bond and the Lost Ark
OR
Bond battles European terrorists in an LA high rise on Christmas in Bond Hard
?

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Bond Hard since I wished Alan Rickman could have played a Bond villain. I think we sort of got your first suggestion with Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.

 

Better Nadja Regin performance:

 

As Kerim's Girl in FRWL where she and Kerim Bey had an explosive relationship

 

or

 

As Bonita, the flamenco dancer in the GF PTS who ended up with a nasty headache?

[DaveBond21]

Kerim's girl. My kind of woman! 

 

Preferred Bond villain for Bond 25:-

 

Emily Blunt as Irma Bunt

 

or

 

Kevin Spacey as Largo

 

??

[The Dove]

Kevin Spacy as Largo..

 

Which Bond actor do you think fits best in the Star Wars world.. Mads Mikkelsen in Rogue One, Benecio del Toro in the upcoming Episode 8: The Last Jedi, Shane Rimmer in Ep. IV: A New Hope, Daniel Craig as the uncredited Stormtrooper in The Force Awakens, OR Bruce Boa in Empire Strikes Back ?

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Shane Rimmer.

 

Bond actor/other Bond's girl mix up:

 

Roger Moore's James Bond meets Diana Rigg's Mrs. Tracy Bond from OHMSS

 

or

 

Timothy Dalton's James Bond meets Eva Green's Vesper Lynd from CR '06? 

[DaveBond21]

Moore and Rigg might work well together

 

 

Would you rather:-

 

 - have a cameo in Bond 25 with the movie being a success

 

or

 

- play Bond in Bond 26 but be responsible for the worst movie in the franchise

 

??

[AMC Hornet]

Since killing the franchise with me in the lead is precisely what would happen, I'll settle for a cameo.

 

Better chase theme:

 

Moon Buggy Ride (DAF)

Boat Chase (LALD)

or

Let's Go Get 'em (TMWTGG)

?

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Let's Go Get 'Em(TMWTGG).

 

More potentially nefarious SPECTRE agent/lovely but lethal redhead mixup:

 

Emilio Largo a.k.a. No. 2(TB) teams up with Miss Helga Brandt a.k.a. No. 11(YOLT)

 

or

 

Mr. Osato(YOLT) teams up with Volpe. Fiona Volpe(TB)?

[Eskyfall]

Osato and Volpe. She was more deadly than Brandt.

 

 

More satisfying continuation novel:

Devil May Care

OR

Solo

?

[DaveBond21]

Devil May Care

 

Preferred title for the next Bond movie:-

 

Carte Blanche

 

or

 

Double Cross

 

??

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Carte Blanche

 

Bond/Bond girl mixup:

 

Daniel Craig's Mr. James Bond meets Miss Paris McKenna a.k.a. Mrs. Elliot Carver from TND

 

or

 

Timothy Dalton's Mr. James Bond meets Miss Octavia Charlotte Smythe a.k.a. Octopussy from OP?
