  • Might I offer one more opinion? I do not think it is Adele. Or let me put it in other words: I hope it is not Adele. Do not get me wrong -- I do not have an opinion on her as a singer. However, I hope it is not her, because if that was the case, we …

  • The French blu-ray era boxes affair is getting more curious . . . :-O Remember? I pre-orderd the Brosnan box and did not get it on release day -- Amazon.fr told me, they will not send it before October 9. I checked the status of the other two …

  • BritishChap007 wrote: All this talk about alternate/rejected theme music made me relisten to Dame Shirley Bassey's "No Good About Goodbye" (I don't care want anyone says, it has the main motif of QOS and uses the word "solace" for god sake. It's n…
  • The French-German friendship isn't what it once was. Got an E-mail from France this morning: exactly on the day of release (!), they have delayed shipment of my Brosnan era blu-ray box to October 9 . . ! How strange. The site still has a release …
  • "Count to ten" and also "hold Your breath" . . ? Are they talking about "Skyfall", or the lost "Quantum of solace" title song . . ? ;)
  • You lucky guys! I keep checking my account with Amazon.fr, but they are still not processing my Brosnan era box! Well, they did not guarantee delivery on release day to foreign customers anyway. Any opinion yet on "Tomorrow never dies", anyone?
  • SirHenryLeeChaChing wrote: Mine is the 2000 version without either title nor end theme. I won it for winning a trivia contest. I already had the title theme on another CD. Here's what's on mine, I'd guess it's the fuller score- Oh . . . my …
  • nobodydoesitbetter wrote: The interesting thing I noticed with this set and the Roger Moore set is the number of discs in the box. According to the box the Brosnan set has 4 films but 8 discs (!!) and the Moore box has 7 films and 14 discs (!!!)..…
  • SirHenryLeeChaChing wrote: There are quite a few tunes in the second CD not on the original versions such as Surrender and YKMN that make this release attractive as well. Interesting You should mention "Surrender". It is on the first releas…
  • It is supposed to be released tomorrow, but the French have not even started packaging my Brosnan era blu-ray box yet . . . :-O So "Goldeneye" day will not come tomorrow, I guess. Looking very much foreward to "Tomorrow never dies" also. I bel…
  • DiscoVolante wrote: Oh I get you now. Bad mistake of mine :P Go check! I did -- no joy here. Maybe, the shots were taken of a Swiss box. Judging from a review on the German Amazon site, the box is already available there. Strange . . . …
  • DiscoVolante wrote: Don't worry, it's most likely the German release. The "standard" reg. 2 release has to have English titles ;) Oh, I think You got me wrong: I live in Germany and I was thinking that whoever took shots of his German Blu-r…
  • DiscoVolante wrote: Love the German titles by the way. Pretty much like the Swedish ones, but sound cooler :)>- But You know what they say: deutsche Sprache, schwere Sprache. Nonetheless, I like it as well . . . ;) Edit: Huh? Now,…
  • DarthDimi wrote: I presume, judging from that track list, that anyone who has the soundtracks is unlikely to find new stuff in here. That is what I thought, too. I have not checked all titles in detail yet, but obviously, nothing spectacula…
  • A Google search yielded this -- a shopping site from India with a track listing: http://www.infibeam.com/Music/best-bond-james-bond-50-years-50-tracks-various-audio-cd/5099923281820.html Title songs on one disc, selections from soundtracks and…
  • I spent a fantastic weekend in London in spring 2010. From my hotel room, I could see the MI6 building . . ! When it comes to movie memorabilia, the Cinema Store at Unit 4B Orion House, Upper St Martins Lane, comes to mind. I bought a book on the…
  • I am not sure if it was mentioned before, but the French Amazon site is offering three blu-ray box sets -- each containing all the bond movies of Sean Connery, Roger Moore, and Pierce Brosnan, respectively. The best deal, of course, is still to buy …

  • I still don't quite understand why they are putting those nine previously released blu-ray titles on the market again -- in parallel to releasing the full range including the missing ones as a set. Who do they think will buy those nine discs? My gue…
  • David Arnold is doing the score for the next Bond film. Why the suggestion he is not? OK---now You got me confused. Where does that come from? Didn't he, Arnold, say himself on Twitter that he did not know if he were to score Bond 23?
  • Well, I do like "The man with the golden gun". Believe it or not: it is one of my favorites. Interestingly, I had been disliking it for quite some time. I was thinking, "Gee---it was just an attempt to ride on the 1970s kung-fu train." But over the…
  • I want Arnold back for "Skyfall", uhm . . . Bond 23, I mean. It his him whom my vote goes to. Period. Now, wait a second---voting has started already . . ? ;-)
  • I would like to add an observation that I made on the past weekend. Most retailers in Germany had the Bond blu-rays on sale for about ten EUR in recent months. Interestingly, already at one spot, I noticed the price had gone up to 15 EUR. Maybe tha…
  • How big is the Bond legend in Germany, I'm not all up on the Bond craze in some European countries, is there like a big demand for Bond merchandise etc, or is any interest on a lesser extent? Well, the Bond legend is as big here as in the rest of…
