I'll take Newton out of this list. Delightfully slimy and smarmy and used in just the right amount.

I get that she's an "ordinary person" but there are still too many contradictions for me. She's seen Trevelyan and his associates kill all of her co-workers, steal 2 nukes (and detonate one of them), and make several attempts to kill her, and she's …

For a movie where so many of the character bits work so well, the beach conversation between Bond and Natalya before the finale has just never worked for me (for either character).

To me, the biggest miss is the failure to go all the way in breaking with the convention of a Bond movie. In particular, although the Q scenes were entertaining, I think they could have made a better film without him and really forced Bond to be on …

The nanobots is one of the few places where the continuity of the Craig era works, IMO. In CR, they implant a chip into Bond that monitors his location and vitals, plus it's able to identify what poison he ingested. But we also see that others have …

From this list I would pick Tosca. I also rather enjoy the Hagia Sophia sequence in FRWL.

I think the biggest miss here, as noted, were the two villains. I can imagine, coming not too long off of OP that they didn't want go the "rogue Soviet general" route again, but as these two were conceived, Koskov should have been considered the mai…

Admiral Roebuck?

I think, like was said in the thread on Road to a Million itself, more explicitly tying in the Bond movies would be useful. Why not even have supporting characters/actors/actresses show up randomly? So we're in the Atacama Desert? Here's Elvis or Ge…

Man with the Fiat tried to go back to his normal life but almost nobody believed his story of what had happened. The only person who did believe him was his alcoholic neighbor -- who always told fantastic tales of what he had seen on his vacations, …

I had an idea of a Solo-DAF novel mashup where the first half of Solo (Bond infiltrates an African civil war) is married up with the back half of the DAF novel (as the Spangs turn out to be the billionaires funding the rebels with the intent of cont…

The new government in Isthmus was only too happy to serve Professor Joe up to the American DEA in return for what turned out to be largely illusory promises of increased economic aid. As the last remaining member of Sanchez's inner circle, Butche…

The wood calls to mind Goldfinger's rec room or parts of the Osato building but I don't think the rest of the picture fits those.

Had they been planning it out from the beginning, a few simple changes to QOS could have made what happened later somewhat less jarring. For instance, replace White in the Bregenz sequence with He Who Will Become Blofeld, making him the savvy one wh…

The point I was making above is that Oppenheimer doesn't even need to qualify based on the cast to be eligible if it qualifies in at least two of the three other categories, which are for the people who worked behind the scenes on the film. Given th…

I would say clean slate. I would also say if they bring back Tanner, give him something to do. If they're going youngish Bond, then how about Tanner as a slightly older trainer/mentor/friend. (And for that matter reimagine Leiter as a modern day Pin…

I like the idea of a Leiter show and your casting. I think the key with any Leiter show would be to emphasize how he's *not* James Bond and focusing on the different skills and methods Leiter uses to be successful. (Because if Leiter is essentially …

TFOD is the correct book.

It appears to be Caverne de la Cascade, part of Bois de Boulogne in Paris.

How about *below* the falls in MR after Bond lands the hang glider, where he spots the woman in white?
