    Hey so someone recently posted a photo from Daniel Craig's screen test. He was shirtless and holding a gun. Anyone have anymore photos or possibly video of his screen test? I know it involved him remaking a Connery scene and a Bond girl.

    That would certainly be the standard screen test scene, where Bond meets Tatiana in FRWL.

    In Goldeneye, when Bond meets Wade, he says: "In London, April's a spring month...".

    Is this coming from a book, a poem, some saying?

    I don't think it's from anywhere. Just a recognition code between Bond and Wade. Similar to the match / lighter code in From Russia With Love.

    Exactly my thoughts too. There's also the one in FYEO on St Moritz when Bond and Ferrara first meet.

    Agreed. There was obviously a follow on expected from that relating to how cold it is in Russia at that time, but Wade decided to take liberties with it, causing Bond to expose Muffy for verification.

    Ok, thanks. It sounded to me a little poor for a code, but...

    I've always assumed it's because he looks so suspicious dressed in drag and she wants to see where he is going?

    thats what i think ,but if she is worried about going to jail and asking Q .....well a bad plot point.

    DAF has more bad plot points than probably any other Bond film sadly. Very badly written film from a plot point of view.

    She wanted to ask Mrs. Blofeld where she got the lovely eyeliner and lipstick from.

    Just had another brainstorm moment...in DAF Bambi & Thumper attack Bond when he tries to reach Willard Whyte in his summerhouse....so they are SPECTRE agents i presume ?

    I thought of that but there's no evidence they are or aren't. I'd like to think though that they're only hired mercenaries or bodyguards.

    Yes its curious isnt it....if they are SPECTRE then MI6 & CIA are very flippant about it and ignore them,which is unusual,so i would go with your theory,thats how i see it.

    Even after having checked the scene in the movie itself, I'd rather say it isn't her. Yes, they are both good-looking brunettes, but that's about it. On the pin-up in the movie there also seems to be a name in the top right-hand corner, partly covered, but starting with D... T... or D... F... Lastly, there seem to be tons of images of Monica in a red dress, but none where she has her hair like the poster girl.

    "...controlled by." You read that in Casino Royale. Does that just mean someone with direct supervision?

    Supervision isn t the same as influence.

    Does Largo have a handicapped parking space outside the SPECTRE headquarters in Paris?

    And if someone else parks there, are they fed to his shark?

    He doesn't. Just his car does.

    No, they convert them into sharks and attach laser beams onto their heads, so their meal would be hot and fresh.

    Is this from the "behind the scenes" disk?
