I'll go with Austin Powers: Shagfall. 'Dr. Evil' just seems so uncreative.

 

More Bond parody titles:

 

The Hills Have Goldeneyes

OR

The World Is Still Not Enough

?

'The Hills Have Goldeneyes' - Something a little eerie yet sci-fi esque about that title...!

 

 

Which theme song made less sense to you, incorporating the title of the film:

 

Tom Jones with "They call him the winner who takes all. So he strikes, like thunderball!"

 

OR

 

Duran Duran with "Meeting you with a view to a kill. Face to face in secret places, feel the chill!"

Gotta go with Duran Duran - the whole song sounds like random, stream-of consciousness free-association. Pinky from 'Pinky and the Brain' could have come up with it.

 

Best buns in the business:

 

Tiffany "your troubles are all behind you now/if only they were brains" Case

or

Mary "Just push every damn button, will you?!" Goodnight

Mojo Royale. 

 

Back to Bond twitter--

 

"No one bothers to take the time to give a really sinister interrogation.  Instead, they keep tying me to a chair."

 

OR

 

"God, woman!  Must you have a drink every time you give me an assignment?  What'd you muck up this time, kidnapping or another worker's comp?"

Tina Turner with "Now time is not on your side! With a golden eye! Golden, golden eye! With a golden eye. Golden eye!"

Sheryl Crow with "Until the day. Until the world falls away. Until you say there'll be no more goodbyes. I see it in your eyes. Tomorrow never dies!"

Lee as Kamal. As urbane as Lee was, Jourdan would have been too slick by 'alf for Scaramanga.

 

Same challenge:

 

Topol as Kristatos

or

Julian Glover as Colombo?

Julian Glover as Colombo, I'd always be suspecting him to cross Bond or something. 

 

Which Era had the better Bond film titles so for;

 

Brosnan;

Goldeneye (Ian Fleming's estate and a proposed WW2 mission)

Tomorrow Never Dies 

The World Is Not Enough (Bond's family motto)

Die Another Day

 

OR 

 

Craig; 

Casino Royale 

Quantum Of Solace (both Ian Fleming titles)

'The Spy Who Loved The Man with the Golden Gun' is a big one but rolls of the tongue easier.

 

 

Which theme song made less sense to you, incorporating the title of the film #3:

 

Matt Monro with "My running around is through. I fly to you from russia with love!"

 

OR

 

Shirley Bassey with "Diamonds are forever. They are all I need to please me. They can stimulate and tease me."

I suppose I would have to go with Matt Monro, perhaps that's why they left it till the end of the film.

Dr. Octopussy sounds too much like an alternate title for Spiderman 2.

 

Bond 24 deliberately looping back to precede Dr. No - while still taking place in 2014 (????)

or

Going boldly into the future, keeping the familiar tropes and passing nods to the classics, while still creating new characters and plots

Oh dear, both sound like a 4th Austin Powers film...I'll take 'You Only Moon Twice'!

 

 

Which theme song made less sense to you, incorporating the title of the film #4:

 

a-ha with "I've been waiting long for one of us to say; save the darkness let it never fade away! The living daylights!"

Madonna with "Guess I'll die another day, I guess I'll die another day. I think I'll find another way, there's so much more to know."

a~Ha's. It's a better song by far, but the phrase 'Die Another Day' does makes some sense in the song.

 

 

More Bond twitter:

"So she sells my flat and all she leaves me is a damn paper weight?! BITCH!"

"There's no way this chick is a nuclear scientist. I mean come on, look at her. Who did she sleep with to get that job?"

Carly Simon's 'Nobody Does It Better'

Chris Cornell's 'You Know My Name'

Topol as Kerin Bey, I wasn't much of a fan of Giancarlo Giannini's Mathis.

Definitely Bond celebrating being promoted by shooting up an embassy.

 

A fire engine in San Fransisco? Had John Glen never heard of Mack Sennett?

 

More James Bond theme worked into the motif of the score - not just injected at key moments like in Skyfall

or

No James Bond theme, a la Casino Royale

Back when EON sued Mike Myers over the use of the title Goldmember, he made a list of already approved alternate names for AP3:

Live and Let Shag, You Only Shag Thrice, Never Say Member Again and the aforerumored License to Shag.

 

So I guess that leaves Swingers Are Forever. (but I love NSMA!)
