The Spy Who Loved Me and Moonraker were my kind of Bond film.
Bond films as straight espionage thrillers are kind of dull.
America as her superheroes we have Holmes, The Doctors whom and Bond (sadly nobody seems to be interested in John Steed, Bulldog Drummond, Nayland Smith, Adam Adamant or Dan Dare anymore).
The only problem I had then as now is Roger Moore bless him is not sexy and Bond needs to be sexy. Ray Stevenson a few years back doing all that stuff way back then would have been ideal.
Break nay shatter the Nth walls if you must.
Pun me till my ears fall off but please raise my interest... if you catch my drift?
