"Okay, so this organization hijacks spacecraft in orbit, hollows out a volcano and turns it into a base from which they launch their own spacecraft. How exactly did everyone in the world NOT see this?"

 

 

Brosnan in OHMSS

OR

Dalton in GF?

Hmm...definitely more interested in seeing Brosnan in OHMSS.

 

Connery in Skyfall (at a younger age, obviously) OR Moore in Tomorrow Never Dies (again, at a younger age)?

Connery in Skyfall (as Bond or Kincade.)  It'd be too deja vu to see Moore near James Bond Island again.  Though I could imagine him as Elliot ...

Adele as a Bond girl - if anything, the age gives her the win!

 

 

Sam Mendes NOT returning for Bond 24. Are you...

 

Dissapointed - I wanted the team behind 'Skyfall' to carry on with the passion they showed us to create another well crafted Bond adventure! Now, we could have another 'Quantum Of Solace' on our hands if a new director doens't handle it right trying to compete and better Mendes' work!

 

OR

 

Excited - Mendes did his job and did brilliantly, but he's done now and we need to keep Bond moving with the times, with new directors and new exciting ideas. I can't wait for a new director to inject their creative style and ideas on Bond!

Chris Nolan, best out of the bunch.


Which "epic" director would you welcome for Bond 24 -

Christopher Nolan - An even more real take on Bond, filled with fantastical visuals, big drama and character development. Not forgetting the big action sequences.

OR

Steven Spielberg - Bringing a huge sense of adventure to the Bond franchise, filled with exciting characters, world-spanning adventure and a feeling of toned down espionage/thriller over action.

??

Spielberg. Keep Nolan away from Bond.


For a female villain would you rather have:

A young character around the same age or younger than Bond, has a lot of sexual tension and could put up a fight against Bond

OR

An older character that wouldn't create any sexual tension with Bond, but is more cerebral of a villain

A young female villain. I call bonus points if he manages to bed her by the end of the film. (Unlikely, but STILL....)

 

The film you'd most like to forget:

Die another Day

OR

Quantum of Solace

Laz.

 

Preferred incidental tracks:

 

Short, snappy ones like Blunt instrument, Time to Get Out and Breadcrumbs

or

Long, complicated tracks like African Rundown, Miami International and Perla de las Dunas

?

Both recently brilliant, but I get far more out of the short, snappy ones like 'Blunt instrument', 'Time to Get Out' and 'Breadcrumbs'. Brilliant.

 

What's James Bonds favourite foreign meal?

 

Italian dishes

 

or

 

Chinese

Chinese.  He loves both Peking duck and Russian caviar, but fails to mention Italian cuisine.

 

 

More likely Bond visit to pharmacy 3:

 

Craig for his "little itch ... down there"

 

OR

 

Brosnan for his nasal inhaler ??

What about in Dr. No, when Miss Taro offers to cook him a Chinese dinner?

"I'm feeling Italian and musical."

?

 

Anyway, Brosnan. Craig can handle a little itch.

 

Cec Linder as Felix in Goldfinger

or

Norman Burton in Diamonds Are Forever

?

Um, I guess Cec Linder, but it's really a lose-lose.

 

Alternate universe Bond films:

 

Comrade Bond is sent to Athens to recover a British code machine after a message is sent to Moscow that a beautiful British spy wants to defect in "From England with Love."

OR

Herr Bond investigates the mysterious Gustav Graves in America after being tortured by the Allies during the World War II German propaganda film "America Dies Another Day."

With the announcement that Sam Mendes will NOT be back for Bond 24 and a new director search is on, is it more likely that... Bond 24 will still be out in 2014 OR is a 2015 release date more reasonable?

2014. I think it would've been 2015 if Mendes was on board.

 

 

Will Bond's death more likely be from:

a dangerous assignment

OR

a jilted lover

It has to be a dangerous assignment, although a jilted lover may let him die on the job...!

 

 

Do you think the 'new' crew from 'Skyfall', Deakins/Gassner/Newman etc, now without Mendes as director...

 

Possibly return in for Bond 24 if EON want them to, so they can carry on their winning formula

 

OR

 

Bow out with Mendes to let a new team paint their mark on the new Bond adventure

The new crew making Bond 24. If it worked for SF, it will (probably) work for B24.

 

A Bond/other movie crossover you'd most like to see:

A Bond and Star Wars crossover

OR

A Bond and Indiana Jones crossover?

Ooh both sound good but if there is any plausable cross to this dream pairing, I'd go for 'Indiana Jones', since James Bond is his Dad after all...

 

 

Which actor's films do you love the most outside the Bond series:

 

Sean Connery ('Indiana Jones & The Last Crusade', 'Highlander', 'The Untouchables' etc)

 

OR

 

Pierce Brosnan ('The Matador', 'Mrs. Doubtfire', 'Butterfly On A Wheel' etc)
