  • Thinking back, I don't think I had many misconceptions about Bond or the films. My first introduction to Bond was the covers of an early 90's VHS collection (featuring the original poster artworks), which I used a lot of time to look at, years befor…

  • Hilarious seeing her perform Diamonds Are Forever dressed as an octopus. I don't think I've ever seen that show before.

  • I have no issues with Horowitz's prose style personally. I quite like it – both in his Bond books and other novels.

  • All three films feature an island location run by the main villain; Crab Key by Dr. No, San Monique by Dr. Kananga and Scaramanga with his own island. San Monique is the only island of the three that is also a nation, and the odd one out?

  • Good guesses everyone (I wish I had thought of them!), but we're still not close to the correct answer. Another hint: Bond is part of the answer in two of the films, but not the third (or TSWLM).

  • thedove wrote: » MR is OOO has it's the only ending where Bond appears on a monitor. Another good guess, but monitors is not part of the answer.
