Couldn't disagree more, I'm afraid. Solomon Lane is the best villain in all the Mi franchise. Written through is actions and a very apt mythological construction which relies on absence and cruelty. Sean Harris made it whole, of course. A brilliant …

Thank you, @suavejmf, my friend. I do know we're on the same page. Fleming's page ;)

edited I made a long post, but that would be me being redundant by this point. So I'll only ask this: What you lot are saying is that race is not a fundamental characterisation point. Is that it?

"This photoshoot could be from a Bond film...love the outfit" - presents a good looking black man, overaged, on a leather jacket and black attire... Oh, man, you're in the wrong franchise. I'm off this thread. I just can't bare it. Do cary on,…

Again with the James Dean nonsense. The guy was a quintessentially American bad boy, and we're talking about a lookalike to play our man Bond? Utter nonsense. There isn't a single candidate that looks the part or is an apt promise in itself. I…

I had a bullet grey Golf VII, it was far more pretty than that aberration. I once had a dark blue MarkII GTI with tartan seats, now that was a beauty. But I'm now very much off hatchbacks and C-segment cars. Give me my little rear wheel drive roa…

That's true. And when I remember LTK, I tend to remember that video clip first, and not the actual titles.

I'm gonna vote here, and say LTK. Really uninspired for a genius as Binder. But hey, what do I know? Most fans adore CR's titles, and I'm not a huge fan of them. I can think of two films or series that did it better using that style, MadMen and Catc…

I know that blue cobra, I've seen it in that very same place many times since 2014! :) That peugeot is rather nice. Have you see the one they use in that Stana Katic B&W film, For Lovers Only? Lovely car.

Too bad Lazenby was stupid back then and made all the wrong decisions, because I really liked him as Bond, and he would've grown in the part. The man had screen presence, he knew how to walk and knew how to through a punch.

I have no ideia, just like @j_w_pepper said, I'd have to rewatch them all. But I just wanted to say I do love what Mk12 did for QOS. Not a fan of naked Craig for SP, though. But many sequences in the 70s and 80s were poor, if you ask me.

That's because you have good hair, @Pierce2Daniel. lol I do understand, as I have good hair as well, close to Brozza's circa GE, only a bit on the stronger side and not that slick. Connery had good wigs. The ones from the first films were top …

Yes, Writings on the Wall for me as well, for all the reasons @mtm said, and then some. PS: I only disagree about Surrender, I absolutely love it, always have. Driving around listening to it is an absolute joy :)

No young Bond. No reboot either. Damn it, I hate all of this James Bond Jr. crap. I hate reboots and origin stories. All I want is a seasoned agent doing non personal stuff with a hint of fun and glamour. Is that too much to ask? Why does everyth…
