    Jokes Aside, I Would Have Loved To See A 4K Remastered Box-Set Release For All The Bond Films.

    I can get you one, but no questions as to why it exists or where it came from. The reputation of certain public figures would be jeopardized.

    Not strictly speaking the correct category for this, but I've moved it to Bond Movies, to maybe create more footfall as the anniversary approaches.

    I just … anyone else feeling disappointed…

    Look I knew we weren’t going to get a new actor but hell you can announce the writers of bond 26 that would be nice…

    I get project 007 is 3 years away but a cinematic trailer to give us a good look at IOI’s bond would be nice…

    I mean it seems we are getting two novels and a goldeneye 64 port

    Hardly Christmas wouldn’t you say

    Wishing you all the time in the world..... @matt_u

    Oh! Don't stop your car at the middle of the road, Irma Bunt's still alive and might gun you and your wife down.

    Haha thanks a lot!
    And the truth is I realized we chose JB day a couple of hours after confirming the date to the municipality. She always says I love Bond more than her but to be fair that’s not true… She also has the same name of a Roger’s Bond girl - not from the books - but again that’s another coincidence… :D

    I wasn't sure where else to ask this, but does anyone know off the top of their heads in which films James Bond, or any other character, is involved in a knife, sword or any kind of blade fight? So far I have:

    From Russia With Love
    Live And Let Die
    Octopussy
    Die Another Day
    Casino Royale
    Quantum of Solace

    @Denbigh:

    Bond kills one of Dr. No's guards with a knife in the water on Crab Key. Nick Nack attacks Bond and Goodnight with a golden handled knife in the climactic fight of TMWTGG. Bond's gondolier Franco is killed by the knife-wielding coffin assassin in Moonraker before he himself is dispatched with a knife from Bond. There's also Kristatos and Columbo both deploying knives in the FYEO finale and Columbo kills a henchman in Albania with a thrown knife before that. Necros uses a knife in his fight with Bond on the plane in TLD with Bond using it to cut the laces from his boot and send Necros hurtling to his death. Sanchez uses a machete to try to kill Bond at the end of LTK. I think Bond also kills a guard with a knife when he enters the stealth ship in TND but it's been so long since I last saw that one so I could be wrong. That's all I can think of for now, there may well be more.

    Not just that, in LTK, Bond also uses a knife to shut Lupe Lamora in the wavekrest ship.
    Then in OHMSS, when Bond throws a knife at the calendar (he's superstitious).
    Then also in NTTD when Bond peeled an apple for Mathilde.
    Also YOLT if sword or blade we're talking about.

    TB: Bond fights a SPECTRE frogman with a diving knife while taking photos of the Disco Volante's underwater hatch.

    YOLT: shuriken/ninja star which Bond, and maybe others use in the volcano lair.

    NSNA: Bond and Largo fight underwater twice. Largo has the knife. The same knife Bond has strapped to his leg when diving the wreck earlier.

    AVTAK: Bond fights Zorin on the bridge with a fireman's axe.

    LTK: Dario attacks Bond with his wrist-mounted, spring-loaded knife in the Barrelhead bar.

    SP: Bond evades Hinx' steel thumbnails.

    Countless other blade moments, that I wouldn't consider 'fights'. It's a pity Nomi didn't use her throwing knives, I was anticipating that.

    I would love another David Arnold tribute/cover album but it's probably too late to get cracking.
