  • Can't say I'm the broken up about Cruise's exit, but I do think it may be tough to find someone who matches his star power.
  • Grave site for Bond's loved ones. Tracy in FYEO and his parents in SF?
  • I'm thinking Rene Mathis?
  • I've heard the same rumor of Fleming and Moore, but according to the Quiz answers it was "Jimmy Stewart, Richard Burton and David Niven. If they weren't available, he'd accept James Mason." Yeah, it's kind of a mixed bag of questions. I think I got …
  • I hope this is an appropriate place to post this, but this is a Bond Trivia Quiz from October 7, 1983 from the San Jose Mercury News that I clipped over 30 years ago. This was due to the release of Never Say Never Again, which has an article as well…
  • Name : Jarrod Occupation : Right now Mr. Mom to my 5 mo. old girl, use to work for a video store last year, before that a record store. Age : 41 Religious views : Agnostic Favorite Bond film: OHMSS (though FRWL, TSWLM, TLD/ LTK, Goldeneye, Skyfa…
  • ...or website. Wow, I guess it does look a bit different now. Thanks @Bondpix.
  • Looking at the painted landscape picture, it's signed '74, and the fact that TMWTGG is featured, I suspect the book is from 1974. Glad you guys like it! My wife has family in England, the next time we go to see them I'm gonna have to go see Pinewood…
  • @Suivez_ce_parachute Thanks for the SECAM/ PAL info, seriously. One thing I think is kind of interesting, is that all the Bond films have different dub prints for each country, that was made before it appeared on video. I know that Bond also has …
  • Thanks @4EverBonded! Glad someone appreciated it. This is an original booklet from the early to mid 70s (I suspect it was before TSWLM). I'd love to see it as well, though I think this is a layout for the old/ original Pinewood Studios, which I beli…
  • When I was interning in the film archives department at New York's Museum of Modern Art, I'd had the privilege to see the exhibition folder of MOMA's 25th Anniversary James Bond retrospective. This retrospective kicked off the release of The Living …
  • I kind of think it's more like this short film that DoubleOhhSeven made, and I acted in:
  • This thread is unstoppable! It is the Terminator of threads. Until I have gone through every single print released on VHS from every country available, this will be unstoppable on my end! :) @Suivez_ce_parachute I really appreciate the info conc…
  • I can't be held accountable for the amount of posts a member has, before they lend support to my claim. But I will say that I myself have read thousands of posts from many members on many threads. I know that I don't add to every discussion I read, …
  • @Bond_Bombshell Like I said, very little encouragement. Thanks again. @Sir_James_Moloney Yes, I do like doing things the hard way, because it is only then, that you know with certainty, that you can be sure of the results. If one is investigati…
  • Absolutely, I knew there was one missing. Thanks for your recollection. I think my next mission will be to get a PAL VCR (which may take me a while) and start hunting down the different European VHS copies scattered around and see what I find. Who k…
  • @timmer StationG Just to give a supporting post to thouse who recall the frontal breasts shot. It WAS there. I can vaguely recall it in the cinema (age, only saw it in the cinema once), however I certainly know it was on the UK rental VHS ve…
  • Why dedicate my time to same subject that is repeated, over and over. I have nothing new to add to the same terrain of topic. If one can look past the exploitative nature of this topic, one can see that it's about memory, editing, and what I think t…
  • Says the guy posing coyly with his shirt off.
  • Well I really don't think you're looking carefully enough, if you see at :20 seconds of my last example, you'll see the henchmen's hand with gun in it, move slightly left before the freeze. Then it cuts. But when you look at the following Laserdisc …
  • @timmer That' not true. Five or more people have come on this thread to say they have seen the scene. In case you care here is the VHS version of the scene. This one here is missing the black speckles on Virginia Hey, but they seem to appear on t…
  • At 0.16 of the full scene, it looks like 2 pen marks marking a cut?
  • Well, I think it's obvious that violence is far more accepted in edits, than nudity. But to quote Robert Palmer, "I'm just looking for clues."
  • @TheWizardOfIce I'm sorta confused, I kinda got the view that you maybe understood my point a little, but maybe not. Ok, the reason I have faith in my memory is because I feel I'm very acute on edits. For example, my family got a VCR probably aroun…
  • Honestly I really wanted to take a break from this thread until at least I receive both the U.S. VHS and Laserdisc to compare. I guess I should apologize for defending (for what appears to be merely) a 25 year old memory. Maybe it's become laughable…
  • Thanks Master_Dahark! That scene is from the extremely rare TV Movie/ Pilot called Cover Girls (1977), which was a kind of Charlie's Angels rip-off that never turned to a TV series. Actor Don Johnson was in the film, as well as George Lazenby.
  • In case anyone is interested, ten of George Lazenby's films were used in the making of the Diamonds Are Forever trailer. The films used for it were: 1. On Her Majesty's Secret Services (1969) (clips from the film and the featurettes, also audio) …
  • Seven posts don't make you an observer on the "sidelines" it makes you a participant. Maybe this is a 25 year old daydream to you, so what if it is? With the amount of nonsense I see discussed on this forum, I don't see you rallying to shut down "An…
  • I guess I also imagine your six posts on my thread in the last few days. Sorry your sick of my thread, I guess you could always stop posting on it if you're tired of it. Oh, wait that would just be too easy.
  • Nobody is forcing anyone from participating in a thread, but as soon as all the boobie jokes dry up, half the people that help derail my thread say that this has run it's course. Too funny.
