  • Working with Stromberg under the sea, whatever happens, I'm going to get drown and get eaten by a shark, so a big no no. Therefore, I'd go with Drax, being in space is a great experience, with all the beautiful set pieces (his space station), las…
  • What I want in the new Bond films is exploration, not experiments. The problem with the Craig Era, they still kept Bond in his old grounds but they've done some experiments in that old ground, I want to see new things, and what they would do in t…

  • I liked Shirley Bassey but not a fan of these two (Moonraker is my favorite Bond theme from her). But I felt GF was a bit dated (it's obviously an old song 😁), as much as it's one of my least favorite films, I'd go with DAF, it didn't felt dated …

  • One of the passengers in the red car in AVTAK who saw Bond while in the middle of the Paris Car Chase? His single line: "Sens unique, fada!"

  • I'll pass on this one, I liked both authors, so I couldn't choose between them. I liked John Gardner, and I think he wrote some good books, I kinda liked Scorpius and its concept, and I think he wrote a great and genuine love interest in Flicka V…
  • I liked Tom Cruise as an actor really, I do find him handsome, he's also charismatic (especially in the Top Gun series), of course, he's old now, but back then when he's young, he looked like a model for a magazine, he's handsome and charismatic but…

  • Solitaire, she's warm and kind and kinda friendly. Anya, again, like what I've said before in here when she's compared to Pam Bouvier, she's not that friendly, she's cold and distant and likely to be more impatient, we would've likely to get in m…

  • Someone is making a crap in Amazon and in Ebay, an updated blackmail on Bond moreso than in FRWL. Daniel Craig edition: Roger Moore Edition: Pierce Brosnan Edition: What the heck is this?! :-/

  • I think that the next Bond actor are not being recommended by any media, or at least out of their radar (and I prefer so). Now that Turner is one of those actors heavily speculated for the role, I doubt (in my opinion) he would've likely to get c…
  • In The Man With The Golden Gun, in the PTS, Scaramanga had a mannequin of James Bond, the thing is, how did Scaramanga knew what Bond looked like? Kinda liked that FRWL Bond mask in that Red Grant training, but at least SPECTRE might possibly hav…

  • It's not that they get too much blame, but like the leading actor (the Bond actor themselves), or every cast in the Bond films, the leading ladies should be convincing and credible too, and to the lesser extent good in acting. The only Bond "actr…
