    34. You get more pleasure ordering the martini in your best Bond mode than actually drinking it.

    (and I want that Monopoly set! Is that for real??)

    Oh yes. I'll take a pic and see if I can put it in the thread. Pieces are: DB5, Lotus Elite (underwater version) Baron Samedi's hat, 007 logo, Klebb's shoe, JetStar. You buy the films, not streets, and the cards are Bond Villains and Bond Girls.

    You know your a Bond fan when you can quote large chunks of dialogue on command.

    I for instance can quote Alec Trevelyan's speech in the grave-yard word for word.

    Its shocking...p(I'm going to resist the obvious follow up to that phrase)

    35) You're extreamly happy over the fact you have a friend named Q. (Her actual name is too difficult to pronounce so everyone calls her by her first initial).

    36) Every time you pull the button out of your watch you, for a split-second, wish it'd turn into a magnet.

    37) When kissing your girlfriend on a Ferris Wheel you can't help but compare yourself to Timothy Dalton, even if only alittle.

    Damn. That makes me feel ashamed. I once went on the London Eye with an old girlfriend (that's kind of a big Ferris Wheel) and, while kissing her, Bond/Dalton never once came into my head ;)

    Many of these fits in on me, but this one is really me!

    Brosnan power you know ;)

    You know you're a Bond fan when, on negotiating a pull or slide door, you try and replicate the way PB opens the door on the Yaucht Mountacore in GE.

    You know your a Bond fan when you get a tad excited if the word 'Bond' is used in a completely unrelated manner:

    Eg the next station is Bond Street
    Joining us now is former royal correspondent Jenny Bond
    Let's go out and bond over a pint

    Hmm...probably should find myself another girlfiend.

    38) You becomes proud when people that are non-fans starts to talk about Bond
    39) You get a nice feeling when you hear the James Bond Theme

    I've never done a silly foot shuffle when i've had to open one of those sliding doors. ;)


    40) You know you're a Bond fan when you walk past a busker, they start playing the Bond theme at that moment, and you can't help but grin.


    It's happened to me before. :-B

    You should go the whole hog and tell them what a "charming tune" it is the next time that happens.

    I was heading for my bus, if I had time and loose change, I would have tossed a few coins into his guitar case. It certainly made my day.

    You know you're a Bond fan when you wait for a Bond question on your favorite quiz shows (Who wants to be a millionaire ?)

    You know you're a Bond fan when you watch movies only because it features an actor who played in a Bond movie :) (only reason I watched 'Anglavakt' was because Tcheky Karyo was in it)

    43) You know you're a Bond fan when you've practised throwing your hat to a coat rack and you do it any time you have a chance to.

    You know your a Bond fan when you feel yourself seething at people who get facts about Bond wrong.



    ...like this bloke on the right of the screen ;)

    I had a book about the Bond films that came out on the 25th Anniversary, an official product written by Sally Hibbin that was littered with mistakes, one of the worst was she thought the wax work of Bond in TMWTGG was a cardboard cut out! I wished I'd kept it, gone through it with a red pen and sent it back to the author! Seeth!

    I agreed to go and see Mama Mia with my girlfriend at the time just because Pierce Brosnan was in it. Biggest mistake of my life.

    Anyway, you know you're a Bond fan when you quote a CR line while playing poker with your mates.

    I agreed to go and see Mama Mia...just because Pierce Brosnan was in it. Biggest mistake of my life.

    I must admit...I did that too :\">

    Also, a friend keeps reminding me that I'd only agreed to watch Layer Cake AFTER Mr Craig had been announced as 007.

    Very true. When anyone mentions that name, I never fail to try to listen in on what is being said.

    Precisely! I was working on homework one day in study hall this past year, and some seniors brought up James Bond in their casual conversation, and my attention immediately switched, haha (though I still focused on the homework :-B ).

    Totally me!

    45) When you have memorized a Bond film word for word, and either impress or annoy your parents or friends because of it.

    46) You are on a train with a lovely girl, you order the lamb, and say it is skewered, even if it was prepared immaculately.

    47) Even since you saw CR, your password for everything is "Vesper".
