I did not think it was too bad, no way as good as Thunderball, Connery may be a little to old, but Van Sydow was not bad Blofeld, Branduer was alright as Largo and Basinger as Domino was good, I seen a few times, it was not comparable to Thunderball but above average film worth a watch anytime.

The Living Daylights is not better than Goldfinger.

I can't believe Doctor No. wasn't on the best list. And what about The Man with The Golden Gun?

Whoever wrote that list is a fool.

On the tube this morning I was peeking at somebody's newspaper over their shoulder and there was an article about sex in the new bond movie and how they are going to make a point of showing him using 'protection'.

Okay lemme go through the list:

1- Spy who loved me, I'm not sure should be #1... It's a great Bond flick, probably Roger Moore's best, and it has my favorite Bond soundtrack (both incidental music and opening tune, which I know the lyrics of, and sometimes randomly sing it at work, causing general disbelief on my mental sanity), but not a number 1 AT ALL...

2- Living daylights, eh? What?!

3- Goldfinger, yes it is slow paced, but hey, it was 1963... I think.. 63 or 64?

8- On her majesty's secret service, what?! You gotta be kidding me...

10- Moonraker! Yes!! Space battles! Absolutely ridiculous and steriotyped Brazil! Jaws slicing through everything! Bond visits an aztec temple at the freaking amazon forest, with people dressed as from the south region of the pampas, and Q calles it "amazoco", how can you beat that? Best - Bond - EVER!

And the worst:

1- Licence to kill, what, Dalton's best?! And living daylights is #2??

2- Never say never again, agree. What was Irvin Kershner thinking?! Well, it's not even part of the series anyway, so...

3- Goldeneye, why, it's my second favorite Brosnan Bond flick, AND.. my favorite N64 videogame! Cmon!

5- Moonraker, oh well it's bad, but not AS bad as Golden Gun, and it's a fun, silly film, shoudlnt be here!

I have a bizarre fascination for 70s funky-esque incidental music, so I think that " The Spy Who Loved Me" has the best soundtrack of all the movies. The name of the song played during the action sequences? Bond '77. How can you beat that? Eh?

I think the best Bond music is the Bond theme song itself.

I think my favorite scene in all the of the Bond movie is the scene that introduces Bond at the Baccarat table in Dr. NO. cool scene.

From the IMDB

Bollywood Star Gulshan Grover has confirmed he will be the latest Bond baddie when Bond returns in Casino Royale

The My Bollywood Bride star revealed all the newspaper The Times of India but insisted he like the rest of world do not who will be playing Bond in the next movie, the movie which will be shooting in the Czech Republic in January he says" I met the Bond producers in LA a week ago, they are yet to announce it on the official site. They first want to announce the next Bond As of now they havent zeroed in on anyone to play the central role At least 300 actors have been considered for the role"

Goran Visnjic and Aussie actor Julian McMahon are among the favourites for the role, while rumors persist Pierce Brosnan will return for one more movie

They could pull off a stunt by only revealing the new Bond at the premiere...

That would actually be really cool.

On the subject of Bond muisc, apart from the classic Bond theme, I take guilty pleasure from View to a kill the Duran Duran, and I also quite like A-Ha's 'the living daylights'. I thought Die another day was the worst Bond song ever, but it worked surprisingly well in context (I actually worked for the effects company that created that intro sequence and while they were working on it I thought it was horrible, but when it all came together at the end with the music and the pre-credit sequence of Bond's capture, it worked pretty well, IMO. Live and Let Die is another favourite of mine, but as a standalone song, and not neccesarily a Bond song.

Good luck keeping that one a secret.

You could hire 10 actors and film scenes with 10, and at post-production, chose only one.

That way they could choose the best actor. Even the producers wouldn't know who the new bond was until the final cut. Or they could take the best perfomance, regardless of which actor delivered it and have 10 different actors playing Bond in the same movie, or they could get the audience to vote by text message and the winner get s a 5 movie deal. The possibilities are limitless.





P.S That was a joke.

They could do a reality show in which the audience votes out one Bond, and in the end the best Bond gets a 5 picture deal as you said... Hosted by Sean Connery and Roger Moore!

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.
