Wisniewski, because he's not so famous. However, I think I'd prefer him in the role of a foreign ally rather than an MI6 agent.

Which hidden villain was more obvious:

Georgi Koskov

or

Elektra King ?

Elektra King because she had the emotional edge on Bond, I think.

If it was up too you would you kill off Silva from Skyfall OR keep him alive for Bond 24?

Kill him off. We need some classic villains to demise in the Bond's for Craig, resulting from a cracking final confrontation. Leaving them alive leads to open wounds for disjointed and un-needed links to other films, hence Mr.White but with the exception of Jaws and Blofed for instance. Unless Silva is some major player and EON know how to use him well, I say let him die.


Which character would you like to see re-booted for a future Bond film?

Xenia Onatopp - still killing with those strong thighs.

OR

Pam Bouvier - still a fiesty and fierce CIA ally and friend to Felix.

Pam Bouvier...

Which Bond character would you dress up as to attend the premier of Skyfall : Put on a butler's suit and bowler hat and go as Odd Job OR Put on a white tux and black eye patch and go as Emilio Largo?

Emilio Largo sounds like a lot of fun, thanks I'll have to keep that in mind for October.

What would make for a better Bond setting or lair for BOND24?

A mega huge cruise ship OR A ex-Russian military base in the Arctic?

A ex-Russian military base in the Arctic. Both good ideas but this sounds like a great location for a final confrontation!


If James Bond was to go undercover in a future Bond film...would you rather see him...


As a shrimp fisherman in choppy waters alongside grizzled sailors, trying to observe a suspect's hideout.

OR

A fast-food vendor working in busy streets to high demand, keeping an eye on a suspect's hideout.

Oddjob OR Jaws

Jaws...with his steel teeth, he'd be able to chomp Odd Job's bowler hat to pieces..

Hmm....Daniel Craig sure has a keen mind when he puts his mind to it, but from just seeing him play once, he's still a little reckless so I don't know how he will continue to be. But Moore certainly is a dab hand with plenty of experience, and his cool frame of mind would shake the keenest player, so I go for Roger Moore.


Which Pierce Brosnan film had the most unexpected moment for explosive Bond theme music...

'The World Is Not Enough' - Jumping out of the Bilbao bank window tied to a window blind and a bad guy to escape the law

OR

'Tomorrow Never Dies' - Bond playing chicken with the MIG jet on the runaway, moments before lifting off to fly away

I didn't think the TWINE stunt was that impressive so I would have to go with it.

Which tie fixing Brosnan moment was better?

GE when he stops the tank

OR

TWINE when he submerges his boat in the PTS

'TWINE' when he submerges his boat in the PTS, tacky but Roger Moore-esque brilliance.

Which is the better pre-title sequence for a Bond debut -

Pierce Brosnan's 'GoldenEye' dam stunt and chemical plant infiltration

OR

Timothy Dalton's 'The Living Daylights' Gibralter SAS infiltration and jeep chase

Tough one but I would have to go with Dalton's because it has Robert Brown as M.

TMWTGG when Bond jumps the bridge

OR

TWINE during the boat chase?

Drax and Stamper because Stamper wouldn't have a 'change of heart' so to speak, he's all business.

Who would you rather have returned in Goldeneye:

Robert Brown with a small cameo introducing Bond to the new M

OR

Caroline Bliss as Moneypenny though out Brosnan's films?

Both brilliant images - but if Caroline Bliss can bring Miss.Moneypenny closer to the charm we loved from Lois Maxwell, and away from the smut that Samantha Bond started to inject, I'd go for Caroline Bliss!


Which is the better pre-title sequence for Roger Moore stuntwork?

'The Spy Who Loved Me' - Parachute jump

OR

'Moonraker' - Freefall flight

TSWLM Parachute jump. Rick Sylvester has balls of steel. One of the most iconic set pieces in film history.

The Moonraker free-fall, whilst awesome, was a bit shoddy in places. At many times you can see the stuntman's face so its not that well done.

DAF because of how narrow the alleyway was..

Combining Bond allies from previous films with previous Bonds: Jeffrey Wright's Felix Leiter with Roger Moore's 007 OR Topol's Colombo with George Lazenby's 007 ??

I would have to go with George Lazenby and Colombo because it could have happened if Lazenby stayed on to do more Bond films and they did them the same as they have been done until now, LOL.

Which would you rather have Skyfall's title sequence be like; OHMSS with clips of all the films OR DAD with scenes taking place in them ?

OHMSS with clips of all the films - because it's the 50th, but onviously it's not in the 'timeline', but would be brilliant to nod that this still IS James Bond.


What villanous alter-ego would you like the next Bond villain to have? i.e. Carver worked in Media, Trevelyan was a 00-Agent, Kananga had a duel identiy.


The villain is an illusionist and magician

OR

The villain is a twin

The villain is a twin, e.g. Fleming's DAF. The other idea belongs in a John Gardner Bond novel.

Should Bond films be over or under 125 minutes?

Over...but not too much over..2 hrs and 10 minutes would be the ideal running time for Bonds..

Former Bond titles singers you would have liked to seen make a cameo in their films: Tom Jones in Thunderball OR Dame Shirley Bassey in Goldfinger/Diamonds Are Forever / Moonraker ?

Shirley Bassey of course because she deserves it more in IMO for doing 3 songs.

I'll give Shirley Bassey a nod, for her service to Bond over 50 years - she's glamorous enough to appear singing in a casino maybe.


What do we need to make the next James Bond film a REAL James Bond film:

A true megalomaniac villain, oozing evil and with a brilliant defect to him/her like a scar/false arm etc

OR

A sprawling, complex and glorious villans hideout inside some other structure or natual landscape, on scale with Blofeld's volcano lair.

A sprawling villain because CR had the eye patch and QOS had Elvis's wig although that doesn't really count. It is what I imagine Silva's character is anyway.

Machine guns...I somehow think they will overlook the classic rear oil splatter!



Do you think the ejector seat will feature in 'Skyfall' and if so...

YES - It will appear as a mention by Q but nothing more

OR

NO - It was fine for the 60s, but it wont be mentioned in the Craig era

Tom Cruise's Ethan Hunt from 'Mission Impossible' - far too much Bourne comparison to Craig for it to be taken seriously, and I think the 'M:I' series would compliment Bond very well - similar themes running through them (slick gars, gadgets, exotic landscapes etc)


If EON had to remove a Bond film from the timeline, and erase all known associations from that film due to legal issues, would you sacrifice either...

'Diamonds Are Forever' with Sean Connery

OR

'Die Another Day' with Pierce Brosnan
