Tough choice but I haven't seen A BRIDGE TO FAR so I would go with Craig, MUNICH and TGWTDT are great and always worth a re watch DEFIANCE, I haven't seen since it came out.. now I feel like watching it.

 

Bond 24 should jump on the trend of; Vampires OR Zombies?

'Breaking Dawn Another Day' sounds less X-rated than 'Perks of being a Goldfinger'!

 

 

Speaking of cameos; which Michael G Wilson cameo was his best:

 

'Licence To Kill' - As a voice-over for air traffic control. "If they hurry, they might be able to grab the bastard."

 

OR

 

'Casino Royale' - Living it up in Montenegro, surrounded by beauties and brought in for arrest like a Mafia don.

LTK - we didn't have to see and recognize him.

 

Besides, what was the corrupt police chief of Montenegro doing in M's office, posing as a representative of HM Treasury?

 

Bond and computers:

 

Frowning at a copy of 'The Idiot's guide to Operating the Submarine Tracking System', tapping a few keys and miraculously coming up with the position and intended movements of Strombergs 1 & 2

or

Breaking into M's house and hacking her own account and getting classified information ("How does he know these things?")

?

Ha, good one! Have to go with Moore's Bond frowning at a copy of 'The Idiot's guide to Operating the Submarine Tracking System', tapping a few keys and miraculously coming up with the position and intended movements of Strombergs 1 & 2.

 

I could semi-believe Craig's Bond could break into M's house and hack her account...but can't think about it too much or I'll question it even more!

 

 

Speaking of Bond's skill, what other did he pick up a little TOO fast...:

 

Starting up and piloting a Russian MiG in 'Tomorrow Never Dies'

 

OR

 

Piloting and using the Wet Nellie Lotus submarine after a few seconds briefing from Q in 'The Spy Who Loved Me'

 

??

Have to go with using the submarine. It's not so far fetched to think he'd know how to pilot a jet. On top of that, let's not forget about Anya's surprise at the car diving into the water and then being like OMG! I totally know about everything on this car!!!!

I liked the shotglass, though - were the ones in TND a deliberate homage?

 

Anyway,

Better missed opportunity:

 

(Thunderball) "Well hello, 007." "Felix!"

or

(Goldfinger) "You must be slipping, 007, letting the..." Whop!

Thunderball for me, never cared for that Felix actor either. 

 

 

Would you rather see Bond on a mission against a evil robot OR supernatural phenomenon?

We've had both - Graves in his ergonomic satellite control suit and Baron Samedi.

 

Still...Will Smith covered robots, so let's have another supernatural phenomenon.

 

In the meantime,

 

Fix

Moonraker

AVTAK

or Quantum of Solace

Quantum.  Because all it would take is a special edition DVD with the alternate ending.

 

Better Soviet hack:

 

"Blueprints of this car two years ago."

 

OR

 

"Russian translation of one of your service manuals."

I think 'You Only Live Twice' to closer the novel, a we've seen more elements from 'Live And Let Die' used in films like 'For Your Eyes Only' and 'Licence To Kill', so I think 'YOLT' can have some threads closer to the book.

 

 

Who has the best run as James Bond? And I mean not  the walking, but the most powerful, over-acted running!

 

Pierce Brosnan

Male. Nothing about being a sexist mysognist dinosaur, but Bernard Lee just set that tone for the head of MI6 and I think it works as more the cantankerous boss figure, rather than allowing the mother maternal figure side creep in.

 

 

Would you have liked to see the deleted scenes from 'Skyfall' actually put back into the film?

 

YES - I think seeing Bond jogging in London and Severine and Patrice at Shanghai Airport would have just added that bit more depth

 

OR

 

NO - I didn't miss them, or anyothers, and it flowed perfect as it was with scenes cut

Field agent turned Moneypenny...definitely a fresh and updated approach to the character..

 

Most spectacular plane explosion in a Bond film.. Kamal Kahn's plane crashing in Octopussy OR the Hurcules crashing after Bond and Kara escape in the jeep in The Living Daylights??

At this moment, robbed of something possibly wonderful, it's Sam Mendes not returning for Bond 24.

 

 

Best practical way that Bond took down a gun-toting helicopter:

 

Using a washing line in 'Tomorrow Never Dies'

 

OR

 

Using a flare in 'A View To A Kill'

I must admit that I thought the TND's helicopter take down was a little disappointing, so I have to go with AVTAK.

 

Would you rather see the return of Mr. White of Blofeld in Bond 24?

Mr. White. I'd like to see Blofeld done properly on film, but I don't think the White storyline is finished yet.

'Not Another James Bond Movie' has the premise of being a slightly funny Bond-spoof, but being a teen comedy, I doubt it in this era.

 

 

Which soundtrack incorporated the style, culture and tone of the era it was set in for the Bond movie:

 

1973's 'Live And Let Die' (Blaxploitation, Drug dealing, voodoo curse etc)

 

OR

 

1995's 'GoldenEye' (Post-Cold War, Russian enemies, technological terrorism etc)

 

??

Probably Goldeneye. It definitely played up that post-Cold War, techno terrorism aspect well.

Skyballs...(hmm Mel Brooks could be involved and this could turn into the LONG awaited sequel to Spaceballs, that he's supposidly been working on for the last 10+ years)

 

Which former Bond girl would you prefer to see return in a future film... Halle Berry's Jinx OR Olga Kurylenko's Camille Montes?

'Total Moonraker Recall' - sounds a perfect sci-fi action lampoon of the great James Bond and Arnold Schwarzenegger franchises!

 

 

Which soundtrack incorporated the style, culture and tone of the era it was set in for the Bond movie #2:

 

1965's 'Thunderball' (Underwater, Nuclear war tension, exotic locations etc)

 

OR

 

1979's 'Moonraker' (Outer space, the rich and wealthy, exotic locations etc)
