Classic Bond Forum

Tee Hee

Most inspiring ... so much that Cmdr 0077 shall have to take out the old golden Remingtom to continue.

Yesh, I just saw two lookalikes yesterday at Motel 6.

Fine stuff. But "they're" going to come after us again -- what! James Bond should be good looking and every woman is supposed to melt!??!

What I find not so dangerous about him is that his personality is way too light to suggest any kind of menace besides bedding women who are old enough to be his granddaughter. As with Brosnan, I thought that made his more ruthless moments, like the killing of Fekkesh in TSWLM or Locque in FYEO, mor...

Agreed here here and all that!

sorry for the long missing in action, but you know how being lost in the Sea of Japan is

Was it cold?

Yes. But the girl was warm Tiger! Tiger!

LALD was one of Moore's best as Bond. He wasn't too much of a 'nancy boy' ... he brought his lighter personality, but still he approached Bond asa more dangerous character thatn (most) of the latter films. Plus, LALD had that excellent score with plenty of the Theme in the background. Example, "My n...

The DC Bond is hardly believable as a character that is supposed to be a very smart cookie at the least, able to outwit the baddies with a combination of naturally high intellect, instinct and the 'touch.' Not for one moment do I believe that the DC Bond is capable of outsmarting his opponents. Off ...

I've seen the film only once, so this is just a very general question. Does Bond know that that the drywall is only a drywall? ie, does he know if anything -- studs -- are behind it? If it's a finished wall, then it would certainly have to front a frame. At the very least, the only way drywall can b...

I think it's grate news, as in cheese

A completely unretouched photo in sharp light. I think he looks youinger than most 50 year olds even here. With the right camerawork he would definitely still look like Bond in his 40s.

Happy Thanksgiving. Hope eveyrone has a safe holiday. We're off to spend time with extended family See you all again soon. Hope you enjoyed it! I'm not sure what it is - being an Englishman - but I know it involves Turkey. Yes, Happy Thanksgiving to All, and Tiny Tim and Uncle Scrooge. I've just co...

(Peon Fleming was marking off the 'times viewed' so it seems another installment is underway)

An entertaining and long commentary by an old-time Bond fan, Frank Hilario ---

American Chronicle: I, Moviegoer. Daniel Craig? Not Bond, James Bond.

I'm on a continuing missiion for a couple of weeks, so can't login as much as Id like ... But yes, PB certainly still looks like Bond. To be honest, of course, good photography can make a person look cooler. I've seen PB in photos where he does look older. But no matter, he still can play Bond in my...

I didn't have much fun watching Casino Royale. What a soul-destroying experience. Wow, those are really strong words. Of course I agree with you on CR, but at least we have the other films. I watched CR only once, so my soul was left moore or less intact :cry: O, btw, I just noticed, I've been prom...

My Bond-fan dad was in the Far East station around 1974; he regretted this : in a bookstore there was a paperback commentary by Sir Roger on LALD. I guess at that time my dad was just a casual Bond fan.

* It is overlooked that the new 'Bond' is no longer a Royal Navy Victoria Reserve Commander with CMG. He is an army Captain, a couple of rungs lower than a commander. He's been demoted, which seems sadly appropriate. And of course, he's lost his CMG, too. Where do you get this information? The doss...

Do you by any chance work in the media industry?

Nope. Although I've had experience with the Rack, I've never had any with the Press. I've seen enuff torture in a certain film to last two lifetimes.
