'Superb. Take a seat. Before we start, a couple of questions. How would you feel about visiting the grave of your predecessors' deceased wife and ambiguously referring to her in polite conversation? If it's awkward perhaps you could have your own spouse murdered to give a frisson of authenticity and make things, you know, nice and neat. You'll find he left a bunch of unwanted possessions in the top drawer alongside a stint of self-loathing and a chronic bout of athlete's foot. Feel free to embody his very being at the earliest opportunity.'
Don't stress ..you apparently have a 12 year grace period. :D
Or ........
Could the theory be true and the powers of EON have silenced any
Organs of truth ?
Imagine getting a job at some massive multinational like Coke that has been going for a hundred years? There must be literally millions of graves to visit.
Do they let you do it during work hours or do you have to find the time yourself?
I'm surprised the capitalist economies of the west survive. Shouldn't the only profit making industry be flower sellers and guys peddling hot dogs and drinks to the entire working population who spend 9 to 5 queuing outside graveyards to pay their respects to people they have never met?
With the lawn did you use a mower, or bite it ? ;)
=))
The entertainment level is gigantic and the whole thing is just priceless.
Strangely in both instances @TheWizardOfIce is omnipresent in those "discussions" and somehow the center of it :-?
:))
Diamonds are forever
The man with the golden gun
Licence to kill
Die another Day
Casino Royale (heck he is called James Bond before becoming 007 for goodness sake)
Quantum of Solace
Skyfall
Spectre
And yet he is still James Bond!!!!
Go on odd job hat or Mendes 4 life or any other people who believe the theory explain that away!!
I would have to outsource or text condolences from an AMC theater.
My position is that the codename theory has not been contradicted, and nothing I have seen on this thread has persuaded me otherwise. I'm not dogmatic about it but it is a legit way of viewing the series.
@RC7 claimed to have debunked my points but he barely addressed my points. I don't know what colonel sun has to do with it but you can only go on what it's in the film.
The proponents of the theory are devising their theory then backtracking to bit and pieces to support that theory.
The better way to do is to review all the author interviews, screenwriter interviews and filmmaker interviews and actor interviews then postulate a theory.
It's a nonsensical theory with not benefit to the holder of the rights of the screen character.
You're right. I'm sorry, I'm out at the minute, though, mate.
It's what she'd have wanted, or so they told me. Got a six hour drive to penzance now. How're you getting on Wiz?
carry the name forward like Bill Fairbanks 002 ? How many Bills have
there been and when Alec Trevelyan died was he replaced by another
smart Alec ?
I'm guessing it saves MI6 a fortune in monogrammed gifts. :D
As for the grave, why couldn't Moore's Bond have been good friends with Lazenby's?
There is no theory that Bond never ages. The films are just a snapshot of the same character through a different lens, where time, space and context all shift according to the whims of the film makers. That's why searching for theoretical validation is a mug's game. The one constant that everybody involved with the films accepts is that James Bond is one man.
Good but sad point.
We're fighting Bond boredom and anxiety.

(I've been wanting to use that smiley for years. Quite surprised it took that long for just the right moment.)

Youre doing better than me mate. I'm currently in a rowing boat with a wreath on my way to the middle of the Atlantic. It turns out that the bloke who was assistant manager 20 years before I joined the company had a grandad who was in the navy during the war and got torpedoed by a U-boat about 500 miles off the tip of Greenland.
And after that I've got to fly to Australia as the woman who used to order the photocopier ink has an aunt who emigrated to Darwin and had her ashes scattered somewhere in the outback.
This is costing me a fortune and I'll soon have used up all my annual leave!
This all sounds as grotesque as the codename thoery :))
And I thought I have a strange job/hobby
It's no hobby mate. This is part of employment law these days.
A coincidence that Bond only started visiting colleagues graves after the UK entered the EEC in 1973? I think not.
You are lucky in Switzerland you don't have to put up with this crap from Brussels. It's certainly been influential in making me decide to vote for Brexit.
