In the FRWL dining car scene, Red Grant says "cheero" and Bond says it back. I didn't know that resulted from a trend in England for people to add an "o" at the end of various words (instead of saying "cheers"), like boyo or kiddo. Then in WWI, Br…

For the first time in this country, the death-defying human cannonball.

Bollinger! If it's '69, you were expecting me.

007InAction, more great vids! I especially like Jeepster. I see you may be from Australia so I wondered if you know of The Saints; I have a few of their CDs, not that they're glam rock. I thought of posting Joan Jett Do You Wanna Touch Me There? …

Wow, since we see it framed that way, looking at the Top 10s, I'm surprised 3 people ranked Melina #1. And that Tania was not ranked #1 by anyone. However I'm not going to raise the ire of the Natalya defenders anymore ;) But at least Tracy finish…

talos7, thanks for posting. Great podcast. I remember reading that, early on, Duran Duran were all big into the Bond films, and as John said, some of their music videos in exotic locations were influenced by them. Interesting that he first saw so…

@007InAction, great video post! One of the best rock songs of all time. I got into T. Rex a few years ago and got several of their albums. Their sound was so influential, and Marc's voice was perfect for the style. The song 20th Century Boy, I a…

I got my second Moderna jab on Monday. By early Tuesday morning I felt sick so I called in sick to work and ended up having to take three days off. Tuesday into Wednesday, I slept 20 hours, almost consecutively--couldn't do anything else. I don't…

Surely there's a restaurant, a sports club up there. I've seen them advertised.

@Torgeirtrap below is an image of a graphic equalizer like I have. You may've seen much smaller versions with fewer faders on, say, a boombox. The 10 faders on the left are for the left channel; 10 on the right for right channel. On either side, …

One last thing. When you hit the water, don't forget to cut away your chute. 90% of people killed in the HALO jump got tangled in their chutes and drowned. Got it?

In FRWL, Tania asks Bond, "Dushka, tell me the truth. Am I as exciting as all those Western girls?" Dushka apparently means ducky. Or as you could guess, baby, or sweetie. Urbandictionary has some other definitions. It was also the nickname for…

Once, when I was with M in Tokyo, we had an interesting experience.

Thanks for your reply. I'm guessing we members can do nothing except flag posts. I can't find a way to get the stuff off my activity page but I spose once the bots are purged from the site that will disappear.

Lots of spammers on here today and I'm getting a ton of spam on my name page.

Looks like several spammers are signing up.

I liked Runaway and have seen it probably three times at least. I always like Tom Selleck; Gene Simmons does a good job; and it's an interesting premise. Wing and a Prayer, 1944 Starring Don Ameche, Dana Andrews, with smaller parts from Sir Ced…

I can think of something more sociable to do.

Does anyone know if Carole Bouquet suffered some kind of trauma at the time of filming? That's what I just read in an interview with Julian Glover (Kristatos). He said "I got on well with Carole Bouquet, but she had an unfortunate trauma on that f…

I see on another thread it's been Bond girl/henchman Irka Bochenko's birthday. She's the "Blond Beauty". Still looking great! The internet says she was born in 1960, so she would've been about 18 or 19 at the time of filming. I happened to see t…

1. 1960s 'Nuff said. What was the key? Probably so much Fleming source material (I assume, not having read all the books); Connery; great casting (including many top-ranked Bond girls); many exotic locations. 2. 1970s Not a big fan of DAF or …

Desperate Journey, 1942, black and white. Starring Errol Flynn, Ronald Reagan, Raymond Massey, Alan Hale Sr., and Arthur Kennedy. Not Oscar worthy overall, though it was nominated for the Oscar for Best Special Effects, but a good popcorn movie. …

You should try it sometime, get away from all of it. It really lends perspective.

Great to read what all of you here have and use! Music/sound quality is important to me, and I'll say that one of the best decisions I made is to buy a graphic equalizer. I originally got it because my Denon receiver produced what I discerned was …

Yes @GoldenGun, really well done. I had Vesper at #6 but joined several others of you in putting Tracy at the top. A great and lovely actress, and a multi-faceted and talented character; you can see why Bond would want to spend the rest of his lif…
