    Haha! Imagine getting those prank calls!

    Best part:
    WOMAN: Is this a recording?
    GOLDFINGER RECORDING: Yes, why?

    :))

    Being a Bond fan, it would be fun to get a call like that. But the people they called aren't familiar enough with Bond. Though if the prankers kept it up, at some point they would end up calling a big fan, one who would hopefully quote the films back to them, haha.

    Haha, yes! I wonder how they put together those Blofeld answers; surely separate files with only «Yes, why?», etc.

    Yes, they take those snippets from the film audio and put them in a soundboard, which can play them back at the touch of a button, for the other person on the phone to listen to.

    And with any luck, be confused by!

    Go to edit profile, and notification settings should be on the left side.

    Go to your Profile, Edit Profile, choose Notification Preferences, and then there's a list where you can check to have e-mail notifications, pop-up notifications, both or neither.

    Thank you so much, @jake24 and @Creasy47! And to @Getafix for asking this question. My inbox has also been plagued by these notifications of late and I've managed to turn them off now, thanks to the members and mods here.

    Happy to help. I have most of mine set for a pop-up notification - used to have to delete so much from my inbox until I de-selected all of the e-mail options.

    Yes, I now have them all selected for that, but not the email notification. I already had pop-ups selected for some of them as I do find that very useful and helpful while browsing the community.

    Mike Myers should make Austin Powers 4, but instead of satirising the 60's movies which let's be honest has been done to death, Austin should be older and washed up, and they could take the reboot era as inspiration instead. Imagine Austin as like Craig in SF. I think that could be a funny concept.

    This melody was written in 1912 by Charles G. Dawes, who served as US Vice President under Calvin Coolidge 1925-29.


    In 1951, Carl Sigman put lyrics to it, and it became a hit a few years later. One of my all-time favourites.

    That's great! I wonder if that's where Peter Falk got the title for the one episode of Columbo of the same name that he wrote? It guest starred Faye Dunaway.

    His "comedy" is cringe inducing, but he makes some excellent points about the problems with today's cinema:

    I want a Bond spinoff titled Jones and Wallace, about the TND characters struggling to find their place in a post-Elliot Carver world. I'm sure there's a wicked black comedy waiting to be made. Featuring a scene in which Jones is mistaken for a relative of a long-deceased Jamaican driver.

    Michael G Wilson has the comedy chops to do it. I can feel it in my bones.
