No, I don't think they should return to Jamaica again. Lets see new places.

 

 

What are you looking forward to the most about Bond 24; seeing M and M's new office again OR What new things Q will have for Bond ?

Seeing M and M's new/old office. I'm interested to see how Craig's Bond interacts with Mallory as M.

 

 

 

Will the events of Skyfall be mentioned in Bond 24:

Yes

OR

No

?

Yes, I imagine they'll be a one liner but only a one liner. 

 

 

Will Bond 24 have a happy ending or will they safe that for Craig last film Bond 25 ?

I think they'll go with "Bond gets the girl" finale this time, though I hope they'll leave it for Craig's last.
 

About Bond 24, should Q appear in the field with Bond, like he did in Octopussy and Licence to Kill 

OR

talk with him via headset only, like Skyfall

OR

just give him the equipment and never appear anymore?

Just meet with him at Q branch. I think SF was an exception. They also have Bill Tanner, the new M and Moneypenny who might well be talking to Bond via headset.

 

 

Do you think Bill Tanner will absolutely return in Bond 24 OR there's know certainty ?

There's no certainty.

With so many other regular characters returning and Rory Kinnear's career taking off (the bookmakers had his short-listed for the next Doctor Who) there may be no need for him.

Not that I know - that's just my feeling.

Carly Simon stated nobody does it better. Is that...

 

TRUE - Nobody does it better than Bond. Baby, he's the best!

 

OR

 

FALSE - Makes me feel sad for the rest. There are better spies out there today, but Bond is up there with them in some way.

TRUE - Nobody does it better than Bond! Baby he's the best! In my opinion, 23 films just shows how good he is and will always be part of a lot of people's lives. It's able to adapt to each era. 

 

If Tracy was to be re-introduced, would you want her death to be in the same film or the next film?

 

YES - giving her a whole film to live and then killing her in the next film will develop the relationship between her and Bond?

 

or

 

NO - we don't need two films for her, kill her in her first film to give the next film a revenge theme throughout?

I'd like to see Tracy killed in the next film (and not during the pts, but a bit later).

If Tracy was to be re-introduced, should she...

keep the name "Teresa"
 

OR 

 

Have a new name,?

Keep "Theresa." Even though Theresa was a saint, she'll always be called Tracy.

 

 

 

 

If Tracy were re-introduced, should Draco be:

a recurring ally

OR

a one-off

?

Sam Mendes returning

 

OR

 

a Bond 24 release date

 

?

A Bond 24 release date.

 

 

 

What should be the next piece of the puzzle to be announced:

The title

OR

A casting for the villain

?

The title, first of all it would hint us if it'll be based on a novel/short story. In both case, we'll have a lot to speculate.

Which of the following pieces of puzzle should be announced as second? (yeah, I know, this doesn't show much originality)

A casting for the villain

 

OR

 

A casting for one of the Bond girls?

I think they'll announce all the casting at the same time but I'd like to see the Bond girl's announced second?

 

What kind of female do we want as our main Bond girl?

 

A physically able Bond girl who can kick ass just like Bond?

 

or 

 

A glamorous Bond girl?

I feel for the Craig era they want some kick-ass Bond girls but I'd actually like a more glamorous Bond girl who isn't always at ease in the field, more like Vesper and not like Camille, or Fields, or Eve.

 

 

Do you think Adele will be back for 'Bond 24'?

 

POSSIBLY - With a winning team coming back together, they will want to add her string to the bow to continue her success from 'Skyfall'

 

OR

 

NO - She had her time to shine, but Bond is about multiple opportunities and changing eras, and a new talent will take up the new Bond theme

Aston Martin V12 Vanquish - always liked the modern Aston's better.

 

 

Which Bond film gets BETTER with each viewing do you think:

 

'Thunderball'

 

 OR

 

'The Spy Who Loved Me'

 

??

The Spy Who Loved Me. It's the best one.

Moonraker.

 

Which Bond movie remains pretty much the same during each viewing?

 

Live and Let Die

 

OR

 

Octopussy?

Octopussy. Nothing horrible, but nothing great. Octopussy is just kind of there.

 

 

 

Which is a better assessment:

License to Kill underrated

OR

Goldfinger overrated

?

Oh that's a great question - I have to go with 'Licence To Kill' as under-rated. But good one seawolf!

 

 

Which Moore pre-title sequence was the most boring in your view:

 

The death of 3 MI6 agents in 'Live And Let Die'

 

OR

 

The fun-house tour in 'The Man With The Golden Gun'

 

??

The death of 3 MI6 agents in LALD. The funhouse was certainly bizarre, but not boring. However, at least the PTS from LALD was actually important to the story. All the funhouse really did was to show us very early on how weird TMWTGG was going to be.

 

 

Villain switcheroo:

Robert Shaw as Dr. No

OR

Joseph Wiseman as Red Grant

Ursula Andress as Octopussy - no-one else could be our Honey.

 

 

Which Sean Connery pre-title sequence was most lacklustre in your view:

 

The space shuttle theft and "death" of 007 in 'You Only Live Twice'

 

OR

 

The hunt for Blofeld in 'Diamonds Are Forever'

The hunt for Blofeld in Diamonds Are Forever. It never felt sinister as it should have.

 

 

 

John Barrowman as Dominic Greene

Mathieu Almaric as Jack Harkness

Mathieu Almaric as Jack Harkness. Anyone is better than Barrowman.

 

 

What should Craig's Bond re-cycle next in 'Bond 24'...

 

 

Infiltrating enemy territory via parachute / HALO jump a'la 'Tomorrow Never Dies'

 

OR

 

Take part in a speedboat chase a'la 'The World Is Not Enough'

Voldemort's wand

OR

Amon Goth's pistol

?
