Felix as Bond's CIA contact in A View To A Kill

More annoying: That whiny kid who gripes about Tiffany Case winning the stuffed dog at Circus Circus in Diamonds Are Forever or that pesky kid who tries to sell Bond that carved, wooden elephant during the boat chase in The Man With The Golden Gun ?

Better "also ran" casting pick:

Christopher Lee as Doctor Julius No in Dr. No

or

Jack Palance as Francisco Scaramanga in The Man with the Golden Gun?

Bigger wasted film appearance opportunity for a Bond car: The BMW Z3 in Goldeneye (Q promises us it has gadgets but in the end, Jack Wade steals it from Bond and drives off and we see NONE of the gadgets) or the BMW in The World Is Not Enough? (Bond just has time to use the missile feature and then it gets sawed into pieces..)

Tough one, but I'm going with Bond and M (Bernard Lee). Lee deserved a longer run.

Jim Carrey could probably play a Bond villain, given the chance.

What would have been better:

A Bambi and Thumper spinoff featuring Sammy Davis Jr as the head of the Las Vegas Intelligence Bureau?

or

A J. W. Pepper spinoff featuring Joe Don Baker as the governor of Louisiana and Burt Reynolds as Bond's Cajun cousin?

"Do you have a match" from (FRWL)...not sure if the one from Dr. No really counts as codewords though? unilke Goldeneye's "In London, April's a Spring month.." oh well..

More cringeworthy Bond soundtrack moment: Make It Last All Night - Rage (FYEO soundtrack..ugh filthy lyrics! LOL) or A Pleasant Drive in St. Petersburg - Eric Serra? (I'm SO glad that track was replaced with the current tank chase music in the film)
