    As I've said elsewhere on the forum I think they will only use the Bond continuation novels as a source if they are really in a creative bind of some kind with the script. Only if they're caught between a rock and a hard place, so to speak. That's why the torture scene dialogue from Colonel Sun was used in the Spectre torture scene after they'd tried and rejected another scene between Blofeld and Bond. Sadly that's the only way I can see them really using the Bond continuation novels as a source - if they really have to. And I say that with much regret as a big fan of the Bond continuation - check my username for proof of my commitment to the cause! I think there are some excellent Bond continuation novels they could adapt but I think they'll keep on churning out their own scripts and mostly keep the Bond continuations at arm's length.

    Let's do a frivolous one after being so serious about literary Bond.

    What is your theory on the indestructability of Jaws?

    When I was a mere child watching a VHS copy of TSWLM on my TV I was scared and amazed at Jaws. A towering man who could survive trucks banging him into walls, buildings falling on top of him, car crashes into villas. He seemed to be indestructible. Fast forward to me watching the MR in the drive in as a 10 year old boy. This time Jaws survived cable car collapses, falls without a parachute, and plunges down waterfalls. Pretty impressive and one of the only henchmen that our man never killed.

    Lets have some fun and come up with some creative theories on just how or why is Jaws indestructible?
