OHMSS. I love the original sequence, but would also love to see Kleinmann's take on it.

 

 

Should the next James Bond game be:

An original adventure

OR
an adaptation of either a Fleming novel or film

?

[S K Y F A L L]

I wouldn't mind a film because some of my favorite Bond games are of the films, mainly Goldeney. I always wanted to try TND for the PS. I never got to really play TWINE either. The GE remake was alright I guess but I was hoping it was a remake not a reimagining. 

 

 

Will Bond 24 bring back Adele OR will they try someone new and come back to Adele another time?

[seawolfnyy]

 Do yourself a favor and NOT pick up TND for PS or TWINE for PS. However, TWINE on N64 is good. Not as good as Goldeneye or Perfect Dark (which is a spiritual successor to GE), but still a solid entry.

 

 

Adele will return for another song, but not on Bond 24.

 

 

Which Doctor would you rather see in a Bond film as either Bond, an ally or a villain?

Christopher Eccelston

OR

David Tennant

OR

Matt Smith

OR

Tom Baker

?

[AMC Hornet]

David Tennant as Bond, Christopher Eccelston as a villain (if he's not tired of that already), Matt Smith as an ally and Tom Baker as M.

 

Should B24 carry on with the tropes that Sam Mendes re-established (M, Q, Moneypenny and the paneled office)

or

revert back to the MI6 Bldg at Vauxhall Cross

?

[S K Y F A L L]

I think it would be too soon to revert back Vauxhall Cross after what they set up in SF IMO but I do hope they return there. 

 

 

 

Do you think there will be a winter setting in Bond 24 OR you just don't see it happening?

[thecasinoroyale]

I'm holding out that there will be - it's one of the last few usual elements to get in for Craig.

 

 

Salma Hayek is the next rumour to be sparked to be a Bond girl...

 

Good news - exciting, another well established and curvaceous actress in the frame

 

OR

 

Bad news - let's not go down that route, we need a younger, lesser known actress to be alongside Craig

 

??

[S K Y F A L L]

Bad News for me. I'm not overly a fan of hers and recently have been kind of disappointed with some of her films. It wont happen anyway shes 46 years old. 

 

 

Which plane stunt did you enjoy most in LTK; when Bond 'goes fishing' for Sanchez OR steels the plane from the drug deal?

[The Dove]

Loved the stealing-the-plane-and-water skiing- sequence myself!

 

Which Roger Moore gadget would you like to see get an updated version for Daniel Craig...Moonrakers wrist dart gun OR Octopussy's acid-filled fountain pen?

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Moonraker's wrist dart gun.



Lupe Lamora and Wai Lin

or

Mrs. Paris McKenna Carver and Pam Bouvier alias "Miss Kennedy"?

[S K Y F A L L]

i suppose I would have to go with Miss Kenndy and Paris. Paris is attractive but I never cared for Teri Hatcher's performance. 

 

 

Which skydive stunt do you enjoy most of the Brosnan Era; the halo jump from TND or Bond and Jinx's switchblade dive?

 

 

[thecasinoroyale]

I think the HALO jump - it was less "modified" to make it look more spectacular and real than it already was, and thus came off great.

 

'Moonraker.' Is it really that bad?

 

YES - Overtly slapstick in places and went a little too far, it could have crossed the 'Die Another Day' line for self-spoofing

 

OR

 

NO - It's brave and has stunning visuals. Great action, iconic moments with that usual dose of Moore comedy.

 

??

[The Dove]

For me, I go with NO - It's brave and has stunning visuals..Sure it's way too far-fetched in many areas, even for a Bond, but still is quite entertaining for me.

 

The RUMOR that Penelope Cruz will be the next Bond girl, also the oldest at 40 years... does it.. Excite you because it could be possible OR Hogwash..I'm putting no credibility into this as we STILL have yet to have official confirmation that Sam Mendes will be returning?

[S K Y F A L L]

Sure its possible and I even put her in my signature but it just seems strange that nothing has been said by EON after Nolan, Mendes and now Penelope have been rumored. 

 

 

Do you think we'll now have a break from these rumors OR they'll keep coming ? 

[PrinceKamalKhan]

They'll keep it coming. As the saying goes in the movie industry, the only bad publicity is no publicity.

 

The Aston Martin DB5 from Goldfinger and the Aston Martin V8 Vantage Volante from The Living Daylights

 

or

 

The Aston Martin DBS from On Her Majesty's Secret Service and the Aston Martin DBS V12 from Casino Royale?

[thecasinoroyale]

I go for the 'OHMSS' and 'CR' combo - all great cars, but the DBS is one of favourites.

 

Do you think we'll ever get scenes again like Bernard Lee and Roger Moore had as M and Bond - total trust, a sense of history together, faith in each other's job etc

 

YES - Give it time and our new M will be totally one with Bond and we will see and hear the unity of boss and employee

 

OR

 

NO - A modern M will always be a thorn in a modern Bond's side, and vice versa, pushing each other's tolerance to the limit until the job is done

 

??

[S K Y F A L L]

Yes. I think even at the end of SF it suggests that Bond is going on his first mission for the new M so that when we see Bond again he has already been on a few missions. 

 

Which rumor would you rather be true : Sam Mendes returning to direct OR Penelope Cruz already cast?

[thecasinoroyale]

Sam Mendes returning to direct. Cruz is wonderful on the eye, but Mendes back at the helm gives me more faith.

 

Do you miss the escapism of the older Bond films when you see Craig's?

 

YES - I long for that little more light-hearted, mission based adventure that's not always so serious

 

OR

 

NO - It's gritty and real and brutal, just like the character should be and it works so well for audiences today

 

??

[AMC Hornet]

YES - I long for that little more light-hearted, mission based adventure that's not always so serious

Who says real and brutal works for audience today?

 

Would you rather see Bond do more

real spying

or

outlandish stunts

?

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Real spying. Especially if the outlandish stunts are CGI-enhanced.

 

 

Which of these two of Dino's Matt Helm girls should've appeared in a 1960s Bond film:

 

 

 

 

Camilla Sparv alias "Madame Coco" in Murderer's Row

 

or

 

 

 

Senta Berger alias "Francesca Madeiros" in The Ambushers?

 

[seawolfnyy]

YES - I long for that little more light-hearted, mission based adventure that's not always so serious

Who says real and brutal works for audience today?

(Judging purely off box office gross, quite a lot)

 

Camilla Sparv.

 

If we are going for older, more established actresses for Bond girls:

Kate Beckinsale

OR

Rachel McAdams

?

[S K Y F A L L]

I suppose Rachel McAdams because I remember her from Mean Girls, Wedding Crashers and Morning Glory. I haven't really cared for anything of Beckinsale's. 

 

 

Which transition do you think did better ? YOLT to OHMSS OR OHMSS to DAF?

[thecasinoroyale]

Both have flaws, but I'll go for 'OHMSS' to 'DAF' as they at least try to tie up Bond's pursuit of Blofeld and that he can lay it to rest...for now.

 

Will James Bond ever have another Tracy in his screen lifetime?

 

YES - Maybe sooner than later, but a woman more intense than Vesper will come into his life and woo him like Tracy did all over again

 

OR

 

NO - He's been married once and had his heart broken too many times. He won't let another woman in that close again.

 

??

[seawolfnyy]

I'll say yes, but instead, later rather than sooner.

 

 

Once Bond finally kicks the bucket:

From a dangerous stunt in a mission

OR

Syphillis

?

[The Dove]

These days, probably from a dangerous stunt mission...if it was the old days of Connery, Lazenby and Moore, then Syphillis..

 

 With Sam Mendes (most likely) back on board for Bond 24, who of the following Skyfall production team is the MOST crucial to bring back as well?  Roger Deakins, Alexander Witt OR Stuart Baird?

[seawolfnyy]

Roger Deakins. Skyfall was shot so beautifully and it is a crime that it did not win for best cinematography.

 

 

 

Screenwriting credits on Bond 24, will Logan:

Have sole writing credits

OR
Another writer will be brought on later to polish up Logan's script

?

[S K Y F A L L]

I think he'll he a solo credit. Just a hunch because Mendes brought Logan in for SF so he already has who he wants. 

 

Which was the better transition 2 ; OHMSS to DAF OR DAF to LALD?

[thecasinoroyale]

'OHMSS' to 'DAF' - The Connery/Moore transition was a clear clean slate of eras.

 

 

Which Timothy Dalton vehicle stunt work is best?

 

'The Living Daylights' - Opening jeep chase and fight

 

OR

 

'Licence To Kill' - The final tanker truck chase

 

??

[PrinceKamalKhan]

Which Timothy Dalton vehicle stunt work is best?

 

'The Living Daylights' - Opening jeep chase and fight, one of my top 2-3 PTSs

 

Better pair of 1970s Bond babes:

 

Solitaire and Naomi

 

or

 

Anya and Andrea?

[thecasinoroyale]

Deffo Solitaire and Naomi - innocence and filth, right there. 

 

 

Which Roger Moore vehicle stunt work is best?

 

'The Spy Who Loved Me' - Lotus Esprit vs motorbike, car and helicopter chase

 

OR

 

'Octopussy' - The Mercedes chase and subsequent traintrack drive

 

??

[seawolfnyy]

The Lotus sequence, easily the one of the best OTT car chase sequence in the series.

 

 

Bigger letdown:

Diamonds Are Forever

OR

Quantum of Solace

?
