Wait until 2015. I'd rather they take the proper time to make a good film.

Naomie Harris

or

Samantha Bond?

[lechero]

Naomie Harris


Thomas Newman's Skyfall Score

or

David Arnold's Quantum of Solace Score?

[thecasinoroyale]

David Arnold's 'Quantum of Solace' Score - 'Time To Get Out' is brilliant. Althought Newman's "The Bloody Shot" is rather exceptional.


Do you prefer James Bond soundtracks...

To stick just with orchestral music and composition

OR

Include eletronic beats, sounds and synths

??

[The Dove]

Have to say I've grown rather fond of the eletronic beats, sounds and synths but you also need a good mix of old fashioned orchestral pieces in the score.

Which was the more clever cigarette gadet? Cyanide in a cigarette in Dr. No OR the knock-out powder in Anya's cigarette in The Spy Who Loved Me OR the baby rocket cigarette in You Only Live Twice?

Edited by The Dove, 19 November 2012 - 06:06 PM.

[thecasinoroyale]

I think the knock-out powder in Anya's cigarette in 'The Spy Who Loved Me' was pretty good, very inconspicuous. Similar to the cyanide stub in 'Dr.No', but a bit more casual and effective against the enemy.

What Christmas gadget would Q give to 007 in reply to his "Not exactly Christmas," quip in 'Skyfall'?

A baubel for the Christmas tree that acts as intruder alarm and emits stun gas when activated and someone walks by it

OR

A handful of Christmas candy canes that act as radio transmitters, useful for 30 seconds one-way transmission and only use each once.

??

[S K Y F A L L]

A handful of Christmas candy canes sounds like it would fit the Craig era.

The DAF car chase and 2 wheel stunt OR TMWTGG car chase and car flip?

[GalaBond]

DAF car chase and 2 wheel stunt

The next Bond girl is going to use the name from one of the short stories?

Lisl Baum

or

Elizabeth Krest?

[thecasinoroyale]

Elizabeth Krest, sounds like a tycoon's daughter.


Was the use of gadgets in 'Skyfall'...

Just enough - a great improvement on previous Craig films with none

OR

Too litte - I expected more, not silly ones, but just more for Bond to use

??

[The Dove]

Just enough...don't want to overdo it with Ben Whishaw's first film as "Q"..think that it was just the right amount for "Skyfall".. Now for Bond 24 and beyond, I expect them to up the ante, gadget-wise..

Bond 24 title singer....should Adele return OR have someone else do the song??

[Iceskater101]

Eh, let Adele return in 2016 or so. I mean she did a fine job but I don't want her to do two Bond songs in a row.

Should the next Bond film involve locations in the United States?

Yes or no?

[PrinceKamalKhan]

No.

In Bond 24, Bond gets his own secretary. Should it be:

Loelia Ponsonby

or

Mary Goodnight?

[thecasinoroyale]

Loelia Ponsonby... too many people may jump on the Goodnight backlash wagon re-using her again..but it worked with Miss.Moneypenny I guess.


Which dinner jacket colour is best for Bond...

White, as seen in 'Goldfinger' and 'Octopussy'

OR

Black, as seen in 'Thunderball' and 'The Spy Who Loved Me'

??

[S K Y F A L L]

Black although I like the white ones too.

Sam Mendes returns but without Thomas Newman and Roger Deakins

OR

Thomas Newman and Roger Deakins return but without Sam Mendes ?

[thecasinoroyale]

Ooh..I'm going to stab the dark and hope if Mendes stays around to help with story ideas, but not direct, I'll take Thomas Newman and Roger Deakins. 2 out of 3 is a winner.


Best Bond/Villain combo..


Timothy Dalton's 007 vs Javier Bardem's Raoul Silva

OR

Daniel Craig's 007 vs Robert Davi's Franz Sanchez

??

[S K Y F A L L]

Timothy Dalton's 007 vs Javier Bardem's Raoul Silva, more of a Dalton fan I suppose.

Which role do you prefer Charles Gray in; Henderson in YOLT OR Blofled in DAF?

[thecasinoroyale]

Blofeld in 'Diamonds Are Forever' - he's not that bad in the role, except when he's wearing a dress and lippy.


The gunbarrel pose...

Pierce Brosnan's one-handed power shot

OR

Roger Moore's two-handed firm shot

??

[S K Y F A L L]

Brosnan's gun barrel was always a favourite of mine so I would have to go with his.

Which Maud Adams performance did you prefer; Andrea Anders in TMWTGG OR Octopussy in OP?

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Maud in OP

Better Bond triad:

Sean Connery, George Lazenby and Pierce Brosnan

or

Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton and Daniel Craig?

[thecasinoroyale]

Hands down Roger Moore, Timothy Dalton and Daniel Craig. Great trio.


If you could invent a 007 themed ice-cream flavour to hit stores in December, to add to the Xmas and Bond 50th festivities, would you make...

The Goldfinger - Vanilla ice-cream, with a small hint of mint, laced with golden caramel sauce and crunchy honeycomb chocolate balls

OR

The Moonraker - Chocolate and vanilla ice-cream, laced with silver sprinkles and soft white chocolate pieces in raspberry sauce

??

[The Dove]

Yummy!! Both sound scrumptious but I think I'll go with The Goldfinger!!

(going along with the dessert theme)...James Bond themed cakes...

Casino Royale - Yellow cake base, with pineapple jelly layer followed by a chocolate cake layer and covered with milk chocolate frosting and shredded coconut

OR

Thunderball - a white and dark chocolate swirl cheesecake with a graham cracker base topped with strawberries, raspberries and a dollop of whipped cream and orange peel shavings?

[thecasinoroyale]

Now, Thunderball sounds mighty tempting! Good one.


A new energy drink is coming out, just for one exclusive year to celebrate James Bond. What would you choose -


'Live And Let Die' - Lemon and lime, infused with a single cocoa bean and mixed with fizzy gas and a packing a tingly aftertaste.

OR

'GoldenEye' - Vanilla flavour, mixed with a hint of dark chocolate, fizzy gas and with a slight raspberry aftertaste

??

[GalaBond]

Live and Let Die

Best henchman of the Craig era...

Kratt

or

Elvis

[S K Y F A L L]

Kratt; he handled that knife pretty well.

Which Goldeneye character do you like the most; Jack Wade CIA OR Valentin Dmitrovich Zukovsky?

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Zukovsky.

Scaramanga's island in TMWTGG

or

Silva's island in SF?

[S K Y F A L L]

Scaramanga`s island because it has self sufficient power.

Would you rather shoot at disks with Emilio Largo OR at birds with Hugo Drax?

[thecasinoroyale]

Hmm...I'd feel safer shooting disks with Emilo Largo, plus it's in an exotic location, so I'll go for that, plus they're not as eratic as birds!


Would you like to see the next villain in Bond 24 have...

A physical defect (Mechanical hands, eye-patch, scar, metal teeth etc)

OR

An ingenious lair (Hollowed out volcano, submersible city, booby trapped underground complex etc)

??

[lechero]

An ingenious lair


Robert Markham (Kingsley Amis)

or

Christopher Wood?

[thecasinoroyale]

Christopher Wood - a great writing style.


When did you feel James Bond was in the most dangerous position as a prisoner...

Strapped to the gold table in 'Goldfinger' with the laser bearing down on him and his vital areas

OR

Tied to the antique chair in 'The World Is Not Enough' having his neck steadily pushed to breaking point

??

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Strapped to the gold table in 'Goldfinger' with the laser bearing down on him and his vital areas. Connery's acting and Barry's erie, suspenseful music just make that scene.

Gloria Hendry's Rosie Carver and Grace Jones' May Day

or

Halle Berry's Jinx and Naomie Harris' Eve?

[Iceskater101]

ooh.. hmm.

halle Berry's Jinx and Naomie Harris Eve, Eve is the reason why I chose this grouping plus I don't like Rosie Carver.

Which Timothy Dalton movie?

The Living Daylights or License to Kill?
