maybe, but I think the problem is that the movies formed a style all their own. I'm not saying there is anything wrong with the way the books did it, Its just that different from the way the movies were made. License To Kill just does not belong in the same movie series as "The Spy Who Loved Me", and "Live and Let Die". Back in the Moore and Connery days the Bond movies were not as serious, they were lighter. I'm not saying anything is wrong with books, I just think the style of the classic Bond movies should live on. Perhap maybe we need two sets of Bond series. One where they do the movies exactly as the way it happened the books and the other where they do the movies in the classic style. Make everyone happy.
