    We did used to have 2 on the go so check n double check it is ok and add ‘The Great.....’ to the title , I always insist on this since I started one about xx years ago !!
    If you are satisfied then go for it !

    I've been thinking of a not a Bond girl, Bond girl elimination game.
    For example...
    The Pan-Am check in girl in LTK.
    The Ocean Club receptionist.
    The receptionist / message giver in TSWLM
    But I cant come up with a full list.

    That's a tough one,it will take some thinking.

    You could include the girl Bond dances with at the Junkanoo,TB.
    The Indian girl who unpacks Bonds clothes in OP.
    The receptionist at the glass factory in Venice,or the tour guide,MR.
    The voodoo shop saleswoman in Harlem,LALD.
    The Japanese massage girl in YOLT.
    The woman Bond strangles with her bikini top,DAF.

    I like that idea a lot! A few thoughts.
    SURRENDER, which is excellent, is too close to being the actual theme song (it runs throughout the film), same with WE HAVE ALL THE TIME IN THE WORLD, I would think. You could also stick to one song per film (tough choice with DN). There has to be some ambient music in FRWL. We could use the banjo picking for GF, and the wedding music for YOLT.
    But it's ultimately the decision of the game runner.

    I was more thinking about actual songs (with lyrics) that are not played over the title sequence. Also Surrender and WHATTITW are hardly ever featured anywhere else, so I would like to give them a chance to shine.

    The exception could be Monro’s FRWL, because despite not being played over the titles it bears the film’s title.

    If green-lighted, I’ll start a thread ;)

    Tbf, the LALD and TMWTGG tracks both are versions of the main song and feature the movie title as much as FRWL does.

    You’re right, there seem to be two options than. Or include Monro’s FRWL, or leave out the alternate versions of the title songs for LALD, TMWTGG, TSWLM, MR and DAD. I would go for the former, but I am open to suggestions.

    @vzok Ruby is more secondary I’d say :) Tertiary would be Nancy ;)

    @barryt007 She’s a Danish professor, not a Dutch one ;)

    Seems like a very random concept.

    Besides, there is a video game elimination game going. It is just that months have passed without any participation.

    Indeed..I just copied and pasted @sirseanisbond post,i didn't notice he put Dutch.
    He should be 'brushing up on a little Danish'.

    I've corrected it now,GG .

    Just checking I’ve got the rules right - no rule against voting the same song up/down on consecutive days?
