  • I don't want to get into a Brozzy vs Craig slanging match but not everyone thought Brosnan was the best since Connery as this excerpt from The New York Times demonstrates... "Goldeneye" unveils Pierce Brosnan as the coffee-bar James Bond: mild, f…

  • I always thought this little known track by Raissa sounded quite Bond-ish, though might be a little too pop for some of you hard rocker types here...
    in What song could be a great Bond Theme? Comment by bondsum February 2012
  • Diamonds Are Forever (with the longer intro*) sung by Shirley Bassey. *Not the shorter version on the Best of compilations.
    in What's your Favorite Bond Title Song. Only Choosing ONE. Comment by bondsum February 2012
  • Darth, your're right about it sounding different to anything Barry would do and it's always bugs me when it comes up in FRWL and spoils the scene for me. Your logic that in the final edit the sound mixer decided that it needed a piece of music ther…
    in Dr No Soundtrack Comment by bondsum February 2012
  • The problem with Only Myself To Blame from TWINE is that it isn't featured in the film. I think it's only been added to the album as an extra to make up for the rest of the dross that dares call itself a musical score, therefore I don't have a prob…

    in Dr No Soundtrack Comment by bondsum February 2012
  • I'd like to add a TMWTGG scene where Bond is captured and placed in Hai Fat's dojo with fighters that are instructed to kill him. I always felt let down that he managed to escape with the aid of Lt. Hip and his nieces. In fact, he just stands aside …

    in What if Goldeneye was composed by John Barry? Comment by bondsum January 2012
  • I have them all from Dr No to Moonraker. I stopped buying Bond on vinyl LPs when Bill Conti first assaulted my ears with the dreadful FYEO, and only dipped in once more with John Barry's final TLD. Apart from the LPs I also bought the 45s of FYEO…

    in Who's planning on going to the UK premier Oct. 23rd or just hanging out nearby? Comment by bondsum January 2012
  • It used to be possible to buy tickets for the Royal Premiers, but at a very high cost. I recall filling out the application forms found in the Odeon Leicester Sq lobby 4 weeks before the event, then having to wait to find out whether I had managed t…

  • Hey, Shadow, as you despise tabloids so much here's another rumour which is totally fabricated, and not written by the more "trustworthy" Baz Bamigboye... "SEXY actress Megan Fox is being lined up to star opposite Daniel Craig in the next Bond movi…
    in Albert Finney is in the new Bond 23 film Comment by bondsum October 2011
  • It's only rumored that Albert Finney is currently working on Bourne Legacy, he's not officially signed. I wouldn't worry so much about the crossover between the Bourne franchise and Bond, if the casting of Finney is true. The harder pill to swallo…
