  • DarthDimi is right, in Live And Let Die Bond by investigating the deaths of British agents Dawes, Baines and Hamilton does in effect take over their mission to investigate Dr Kananga. Also in For Your Eyes Only Bond takes over Sir Timothy Havelock'…
    in James Bond as as replacement '00' : Missions Bond took over. Comment by saunders March 2011
  • Like it or loathe it DAF is certinally viewed by the general public (if not us hardened Bond fans) as one of the great classic Bond films, everyone it seems knows the words to Shirley Bassey's title song, the Mustang continuity error, Q's device for…
    in "It's gone berserk!" ~ Diamonds are Forever appreciation Comment by saunders March 2011
  • There is very little to choose between them, they are both richly drawn characters striaght out of Fleming's books, they both share Bonds passions for adventure, fine food, handmade cigarettes, strong liquor and beautiful girls. They are both larger…
    in UPDATED: Draco v Kerim Bey v Columbo v Mathis..your favourite ally ? Comment by saunders March 2011
  • Wine drinking and gushing women, Count me in. =P~ Seriously a Fleming reading club sounds like a terrific idea and I would definatley be interested in joining in.

    in BondCapCon - No Friggin in the Riggin...Part Deux Comment by saunders March 2011
  • I love TLD and concur with most of your points Bain123 and while I agree Kara was rather helpless she is possibly the most Fleming like 'bird with a wing down' heroine to appear in the entire series. I think the romantic interplay between these two…
    in Last Bond Movie You Watched Comment by saunders March 2011
  • DR NO/FROM RUSSIA WITH LOVE Classic early fairly faithful Fleming adaptions. GOLDFINGER/ON HER MAJESTY'S SECRET SERVICE/FOR YOUR EYES ONLY Great films that concentrate more on plot and style than just relying on action and spectacle. THUNDERBAL…
    in Dream double/triple bills Comment by saunders March 2011
  • Usually Connery in the DN opening Casino scene, sometimes Lazenby introducing himself to Tracy in the PTS and very occasionally I think of me because of all the time I've spent aiming my toy Walther PPK at the mirror and mouthing those immortal word…
    in Who do you picture when you hear the name James Bond? Comment by saunders March 2011
  • I was about six and a friend of my Dads let me watch a double bill of DN and TSWLM recorded off the TV, I remember having a nightmare that night that I was trapped in Dr No's lair and had to go and have a cuddle with my mum, now I just think the ide…
    in What and when was your first experience of 007 ? Comment by saunders March 2011
  • I'd take Craig to the beach on Crab Key and just watch him and Honey frolic in the surf in their swimwear and feel really, really inferior.
    in If you were in a 007 James Bond flick... Comment by saunders March 2011
  • I don't believe it that's the second topic I've screwed up today, I need to go away and rethink my posting capabilities, thanks for pointing that out without being overly sarcastic Bond! :-D
    in Your Bond Birth Year Comment by saunders March 2011
  • I'm just rereading 'James Bond and the spy who loved me' by Christopher Wood. I'd forgotten how good it is, rather than just an adaption of the screenplay Wood actually tries to write about the literary Bond in the Fleming style of prose and general…
    in Which Bond novel are you currently reading? Comment by saunders March 2011
  • !974 So I was born the year of one of the (cough) greatest Bond film ever. CONNERY -0 LAZENBY -2 MOORE -5 DALTON -6 BROSNAN -1 CRAIG -0
    in Your Bond Birth Year Comment by saunders March 2011
  • Like with many members the forum had become an important part of my 007 world and I was shocked and dismayed to find it suddenly evolve into something unfamiliar. However thanks for the explanation Luds and James Page and I can appreciate that in a …
    in Hoping to clear up the air Comment by saunders March 2011
  • That scene in the PTS of TND when the Admiral asks "Whats Bond doing?" and M replies "His job".
    in "Thats My Boy !!"..Your proudest Bond moment Comment by saunders March 2011
  • 1) Lazenby 2) Craig 3) Connery 4) Dalton 5) Moore 6) Brosnan Now surely nobody could despute these rankings! ;-)
    in Rank the actors Comment by saunders March 2011
  • Least favourite would have to be the 90's, we had to wait half the decade just for them to appear and then after the very good GE we got the disappointing TND's and the ever so dull TWINE.
    in Which is your least favourite decade? Comment by saunders March 2011
  • Oops I'm very sorry, I totally misunderstood this discussion, I'm really not responsible enough to be left alone on this new format MI6. Sincere apologies to everyone.
    in Who was the best 'one line' deliverer as 007 ? Comment by saunders March 2011
  • Is it James Bond (Sean Connery) in GF asking Tilly Masterson (Tania Mallet) after he's ran her Mustang off the road with his DB5's tire shredding wheel hubs. She replies "Yes, no thanks to you".
    in "Name That Quote" Comment by saunders March 2011
  • Difficult decision Benny, but I would go with The Aston Martin DB5. Max Kalba's Mujaba club vs Valentine Zukovsky's St. Petersburg club
    in That Scene from Film A vs. That Scene from Film B? Comment by saunders March 2011
  • TMWTGG, How could you concentrate on giving Brit the works when you've got that little french chap hanging in the basket overhead, Bond should of thrown the basket overboard, it would of been the kindest thing to do!
    in The 'squirmiest' ending to a Bond film. Comment by saunders March 2011
  • CONNERY : 9 LAZENBY : 0 MOORE : 7 DALTON : 4 BROSNAN : 0 CRAIG : 8 Being a Lazenby supporter I hate myself for not backing him but he really couldn't comfortably deliver a one liner, Moore was very funny but every quip made you believe less in him …
    in Who was the best 'one line' deliverer as 007 ? Comment by saunders March 2011
  • I recommend LTK, I've never really liked it despite being a Timothy Dalton fan and so it tends to be the film I watch the least (well apart from DAD obviously!), but for some reason the last few times I've watched it I found I enjoyed the experience…
    in Recommend a Bond film Comment by saunders March 2011
  • I know many will disagree but I find OP distinctly average, it has it's great moments but then again even the worst Bond films have great moments...well okay DAD doesn't but the point is many of the films have many more and far greater moments than …
    in The most average Bond film Comment by saunders March 2011
  • I agree with Samuel001, YOLT is my least favorite Connery Bond simply because this is where the rot set in when they decided to turn their backs on Fleming's source material and paved the way for all those awfull early seventies films (DAF, LALD and…
    in What is your least favourite Connery 007 flick ? Comment by saunders March 2011
  • Though TMWTGG is weak and AVTAK is terrible, my least favourite Moore Bond has to be LALD. The actors and sets are all below par and the locations despite being fairly exotic all look dull and ugly. The film is far too episodic with a fairly unexcit…
    in What is your least favourite Moore 007 flick ? Comment by saunders March 2011
  • Name: Richard (V Section) Occupation: Work for one of Her Majesty's Services...okay I'm a postman for Royal Mail. Age: 37 Religious views: I think it's great for people have any hobbies that give them a break from reality! Favourite Bond Film: On He…
    in Mi6 member info Comment by saunders March 2011
  • Very peeved that the Bond Bibliography has gone! Good idea for a topic Fairbairn-Sykes, I think the spirit of Ian Fleming's James Bond has adapted well to the enormous social changes of the past 60 years, partly this is because when you get past th…
    in Ian Fleming's Creation and Its Legacy Comment by saunders March 2011
  • I've just been watching TSWLM, though to be honest I spent most of the time worrying about this new MI6 community thing (I don't cope very well with change). Anyway I think TSWLM is the ultimate Moore Bond and is a fantastic film and despite not bei…
