and I again reiterate I meant for it to be like Keyser Soze
'The Property of Lady - Brought to you by the Ford Motor Company and Sony'
'London Calling'
Now that's actually not too bad (or too bad it has already been used musically in DAD).
As for a title, "London Calling" invokes a lot of Bond associations in me, i.e. Bond is called back from the "field" by M or the "office" because he is needed. Bond is essentially British, and which other capital would better represent what he is than London?
Good title for a Bond movie, even better title from the Clash.
The Hong Kong Triad
non-negotiable
Exit 13
The Oscillator
Symphony of the poor
Wait- that sounds familiar. How about 'KILL. BOND. NOW!'
Back in the mid 90's I wrote two Bond stories (which admittedly were crap) titled 'NEVER SAY DIE' and 'ONCE AND FOR ALL' with the villain at some point saying, "...and now it's time to kill you, Mr. Bond- once and for all!" Pretty generic, huh. Oh, well- I was fourteen at the time.
But, seriously- 'DEATH TO THE SPY' (from 'Death to Spies'- Smiert Spionam). Only thing is it doesn't roll off the tongue.
Other titles on the page include:
"THE INFERNAL MACHINE"
"WIDE OF THE MARK"
"THE INHUMAN ELEMENT"
I quite like the first two:
THE INFERNAL MACHINE
and
WIDE OF THE MARK
as titles.
I also noticed "Telephone: Terminus" at the bottom of the letter.
I quite like Terminus to be a title/in a title at some point, as well.
Terminus- The final point; the end. An end point on a transportation line or the town in which it is located. A boundary or border.
I quite like "Read & Burn" as well, though it is a bit odd. It comes from another Fleming letter, where he asks his secretary to read a rough draft of CR and "burn" it. MI6 claims he was shameful of it :P
MOAR:
DEATH WAITS FOR ONE (tad cliche)
THOROUGHFARE TERMINUS (Fancy for The Path's End, or End of The Road/Line)
FOR WHAT ONE IS (shortcut of "know one for what one is")
AUTHORITY OF KNOWLEDGE (meh)
FROM HAND TO MOUTH (shortcut of to live from hand to mouth, or to take as one needs)
COLD WINTER IN HADES (pronounced hayd-zz, not hayd-ees)
or
WINTER OF HADES
(maybe just used as a line where the baddie says "when hell freezes over" Bond replies after whatever action takes place "must be a cold winter in hades!")
WORN WELCOME (play of word to "warm welcome", as in wear out ones welcome)
Oh geez, I'm addicted!
Save it!
