my dad just finished watching Goldeneye and he’s convinced that it had the highest number of deaths out of any Bond movie… does anyone know which Bond movie had the highest death rate or possibly know where I could find death counts for James Bond movies?

Ever Fancied yourself as the Next James Bond

John Smith asked:
“The name’s Bond… James Bond”. The immortal words that almost every man would love to speak. It’s true that James Bond 007 has got it all. In every Bond film he gets the action, the bad guys, the cars and of course, usually not one, but a few girls! A life of danger, action, glamour, style and excitement - It’s not something that many of us would turn down. If you’re a budding secret agent and secretly wish that you could have the chance to fight baddies, fly planes and maybe have your martinis shaken, not stirred then look no further. This year, choose from one of the gifts for men that can make your 007 desires become reality. Can you really be a secret agent? It’s easy, anyone can do it! Just choose one of the experience days from the range of gifts for men.
The sky’s the limit…
Every action man needs to be able to fly a helicopter, plane or glider at a moment’s notice. Get your secret agent training literally off to a flying start and go on one of the experience days that will teach you to do just that. Choose from microlighting, gliding or even flying a tiger moth. You could even set your pulse racing doing aerobatics in a Bulldog, complete with flying suits, military bone-domes and gloves. Of course, as every secret agent knows, airborne excursions aren’t always without glitches, so it would be advisable to also try out one of the sky diving experiences while you’re at it. Better to be safe than sorry!
The need for speed
Everybody knows that if someone is following you, shooting to kill, it’s advisable to get out of their way pretty quickly. The fact that 007 normally manages to do it in a multi million pound sports car is an added bonus. Don’t worry; we can help with that too! The range of gifts for men includes driving experience days designed to get you up to speed, racing round the tracks of Silverstone, Britain’s most famous racing circuit. Choose from Ferraris, Lamborghinis or even a Lotus Exige. If this isn’t enough for you or you just want to hone your skills even more, try one of the off-road driving experiences. Whether it be 4×4 cars, Harley Davidsons or a monster truck, every budding Bond out there should be well equipped to escape the bad guys and get the girl after one of the gifts for men experience days.
Where’s Q when you need him?
It must be said without some of his gadgets Bond may well have come unstuck more than a couple of times. Make sure you’re fully kitted out with one of the more practical gifts for men. We can’t really promise guns in pencils or poisonous lipsticks, but there’s sure to be something that will help you out, even if it’s more likely to be in the glamorous evenings associated with your new secret agent job. Maybe a pocket sized corkscrew that fits on your key ring could come in handy when the waiter has disappeared and you want to offer your latest Bond girl a drink? A bottle opener cunningly disguised as a key? To scare off any bad guys set on world destruction that might cross your path, why not get a remote controlled black widow spider or perhaps a remote controlled helicopter or Morphibian device to spy on them across air, land or water. Of course, perhaps most useful of all gifts for men might be a Loc8tor device to keep track of all your precious devices and alert you if your latest, most dangerous toy has gone astray. Every budding secret agent is sure to find something they need from the gifts for men range.
Shaken, not stirred
Of course there’s the other side of Mr Bond. If you’re going to be 007 you’ve got to be ready to deal with all the ladies. Our gifts for men range has got you covered there too. To make the right first impression try one of the stylish cufflink sets, choosing from our range of engraved silver or bone china. You’ll need to be a wine expert as well, so why not invest in our little black book of wine, so you can impress her with your knowledge of grapes as well as your guns. Of course, there’s never just one Bond girl on the scene, so this is where the range of personalised diaries might come in handy. Keep all your dates and make sure everyone is happy.
So, anyone can become James Bond. Invest in a few of the gifts for men and you can be Bond but without the risk of gunshot wounds. Perfect!

Eric Awesome asked:
First off, these past couple of Bond flicks with Daniel Craig have been back-to-back sequels, which is completely unprecedented seeing as no Bond film has been a “sequel” in the sense that one truly relies on the other. Moreover, there’s an acute lack of gadgetry and sheer unrealistic coolness (one might call it campy-ness) in these films. Do you think it’s a change for the better or worse?

Anyone remember James Bond series book cover?
Filed Under James Bond | 1 Comment
agus asked:
I remember when I was still in high school (1980’s) I saw James Bond book series which the cover features photo of a male model in white suit, posing stand up with crossed hand holding a gun in front of his chest (the usual Bond pose), and a girl model, photographed against a bare dark background. Infact, I had one of the series (Moonraker) but the book has long gone. I love the cover.

Can anyone tell me was it “Penguin Classics”? Which edition?

Unbiased View on the New James Bond

Joel Owens asked:
James Bond is one of the most recognizable names in literature. According to his creator, Ian Fleming, “James Bond is a highly romanticized version of a true spy.” He is articulate as he is cocky. Throughout the years, James Bond has changed faces.
For every generation, there was a version of James Bond. And for this period of time, Daniel Craig portrays the most famous spy in literature and film. He brings a rougher version of the British agent who has captured the imaginations of both young and old.
Daniel Craig shows a more rugged interpretation of the James Bond that we have come to know and love. With the physique that Daniel has, he’s certainly brings a whole new perspective to the role. With his performance in the re-make of Casino Royale, he brought out the more violent nature of being a spy. This was the only Bond movie that didn’t have the arsenal of gadgets surreal that the Sean Connery and Roger Moore movies had.
Casino Royale made over 500 million dollars at the box office and Daniel Craig had the blessing of the roster of actors that, at one time, played Bond on the big screen. When consulting the novel, it characterizes Bond as ironic, brutal, and cold, which makes this Bond an antihero; a protagonist whose character and goals are antithetical to classical heroism. What does this mean? That Bond was an efficient killer, which justifies his having a license to kill, therefore making him more of a real spy than he was as charming as the Mad Hatter. You couldn’t have a Bond film without the women. And women have swallowed this version hook, line, and sinker. Tight abdomens really hit it off with the female population, rather than the sly, cool, ladies man of old. With the immergence of a new image so do the weapons at Bond’s disposal.
One would usually see a Walter PPK on the posters on every Bond film made. In the Quantum of Solace poster, you see Bond in the traditional tuxedo wielding a sub machine gun which only seems logical. A lone spy going up against more than just a handful army of henchmen is just like the old school James Bond we use to know. The sheer number of villains would scare anyone in his right mind; it’s not simply possible for one man to go up against so many people with just a pistol.
Years ago, the old Bond didn’t have much of a body to begin with. He was not as massive as Daniel Craig, simply because they didn’t have knowledge or the technology to achieve such mass in those days. With the image that Craig presents to us, the audience, we see a physique that can actually perform the feats that James Bond is known to make throughout his illustrious career.
This variation of the Bond character is being given credibility to actually exist. Daniel Craig has given us the most versatile James Bond so far. Of course, we can not simply dismiss those who have come before, we can only separate and take them as individuals. Daniel Craig isn’t just James Bond on steroids.

James bond?

clomtancy asked:
I have a question.
I have a question.
A while back i presented an idea for a movie where all the Bonds worked together (the actors) in a kind of ultimate James Bond movie.
A friend of mine told me tonight that there is truth to my theory. That in “On her Majesty’s secret service” it says that James Bond is an alius. is this true? if so then my movie idea of multi bonds could happen.
well to answer the guy who asked who would play bond,, thats easy
they would play Bond… Conery, Moore, Lazenby, Dalton, Brosnona nd maybe the new guy.
But the idea we came up with is that one of them gets in trouble somehow and they all have a connection to the enemy so to save the day they must all work together.
