  • I also imagine that whomever is chosen, there will be a very strong vetting of the man’s socials and background. EoN don’t want to hire someone only to discover a couple of months later that there may be skeletons in the closet, a la a Jonathan Majo…

  • @mattjoes , listening to this in the back of an Uber, full volume through my pods, I felt like Bond for three and a half minutes, 😂

  • No matter how much I have a soft spot for Diamonds, I’d probably watch Spectre to see Monica Bellucci waiting for the assassins to take her out, only to have Bond ambush them. Love that scene. I also love the following scenes with Ms. Sciarra …

  • I'll take the yacht, please. I love the water, especially the warm kind, helps with peace of my mind and when I'm bored of one place, I'll just sail into another port!

  • The research that @ColonelSun has done on this topic, and how he then wove it into a series, really gave me pause. After the extent in which he's gone to provide answers to himself, he's uncovered a lot of detailed accounts that make the hairs on…

  • Well, @DewiWynBond , there’s a strike still going on, so not much of a sob story but more of a reality check that people are out of work, and things like Bond can’t be rushed during this time. Sorry to bore you…

  • Agreed. Romance and seduction and physical attraction, but falling in love can be placed to the side for quite some time (considering the last itineration sacrificed himself for his two loves).

  • And what’s the other part @MajorDSmythe ? I honestly could give a rat’s rear about an actor’s skin color. They either have the attributes to play a character, or they don’t. At one time, I thought Idris Elba would make a great Bond. But then I…
