Exactly!!!!! That's the chapter. :)>- Yeah, that title could work.
I thought so. It's a famous quote. It could be a great starting point for a new Bond actor.
Yeah. It would.
It would be a great title.
Also a good name for a mission.
Yeah. It is. Good mission name.
It could be the new Quantum though I doubt they'd make that mistake again.
Haha! I know what you mean. But I'm surprised it would confuse people though. Like when they said Licence Revoked was difficult to understand, so it had to be changed to Licence To Kill....and I prefer the former a lot.
Yes, it certainly made a lot more sense than Licence to Kill as it was the one film where he didn't have an officially sanctioned licence to kill! I suppose it could be taken to refer to Bond giving himself a poetic licence to kill, but that's maybe being overly charitable to a less than inspired title.
Exactly.
Got bugger all back from my taciturn!
In interviews Ian Fleming used to say was he supposed to dock Bond on his income tax as opposed to having his villains torture him?
"Mr Bond, there are but two things certain in this world - death and taxes. You've managed to survive the latter, with your pills and your drink."
Haha! I know, right? Still sounds cool, though. One could even say it sounds like Taxi Turn too.

In that Bond had a poetic/artistic licence to kill off his own bat?
Yeah. My sentiments exactly.
Sadly they were rather hamstrung when their market research suggested that their initial title wouldn't be properly understood by US audiences so they had to go with Plan B and retitled it.
Bond films recently borrowed quite a bit from Austin Powers already, now you suggest taking a title from Inspector Clousseau ?
Someone suggested When All Else Fails a while back, I think that'd be pretty good.
Upon reflection, would the Pink Panther theme be the second-most recognizable movie theme from the 1960s ?
That recalls an Eddie Money album title for me @LucknFate.
Other contenders, plus song titles:
Life for the Taking
Can't Hold Back
Nothing to Lose
Love and Money
Shakin'
The Big Crash
Walk on Water
I like that.
It feels a bit obvious, but then Licence To Kill felt the same to me and we got used to it, so yeah; it certainly seems possible. I wouldn't rule it out.
