    How old would the girl be? Would she be a cute pre teen like Alyssa Milano in "Who's the Boss"? Or would she be older in her early twenties?
    Who would be her mother? Octopussy? Goodnight? Perhaps Melina Havelock? If any one of these birthed her then she would be a looker and I can see Bond using his license to kill when the scumbag boys start sniffing around her...

    No, don't think Bond would act the super-daddy, see him more as a man keeping the girl (or kids in general) at bay. Not really a kids guy our 007, is he? Don't see him playing under the X-mas tree with the toys or giving advice how to handle puberty's difficulties. Think he'd be glad to have others handle that and only get to know his spawn when they are already through the worst nightmares of growing up.

    We're getting too deep into a Crystal Skull type of story line for a film. *shudders*

    I would prefer it if Mary Goodnight or Anya Amasova was the mother. These are my two favorite Moore-era Bond girls (and, for some reason, Moore is the one I'd expect to have a kid). If neither of these, Kara Milovey.

    Holy Bond, I literlly am writing this as we speak! All I every really wanted to do was be a writer for movies and I am writing this! I trust all you people to keep this hush hush but, in my script she is kick ass and innocent at the same time and has to save her dad from an old ally. She doesn't like what she has to do but James is the only family she las left. She resents her father for leaving her and her dead mother. And in the end they form a strong "Bond" lol ;) I feel like it is foolish to do this but I don't think I am going to stop I am just glad other people want to see this happen.

    We have a fan fiction thread, I am sure; would be great to read yours, too.

    With all the women he's slept with its possible that he has a kid somewhere. But still, I'd rather he had a daughter than a son. If he had a son then I'm sure the film writers would just make him out to be a mini bond.

    that's the reason why i prefer a daughter. a mini bond's not quite good for the series. although his "daughter" would enter any agency too.

    That would be nice. I was thinking of writing a story about a 19-year-old girl who is James Bond's daughter. She would be a p.i. and then join M16. They meet by accident.

    I wonder if Fleming had plans to let the son come back, in some form, in some book before he died

    It was never stated that he had a son, just that Kissy was pregnant with his child.

    Bond has already has a daughter. Mata Bond. Great character.

    You've got to love Joanna Pettet. One of the best things about that film.

    Exactly. But he never knew.

    Well, you know members will mostly turn her into the next Bond agent; just a grown up female MI6 00 (or similar - maybe CIA??) with daddy issues. But everybody who likes to write fan fiction could have fun with this. Have at it. :)

    I'll add my bit: Apple pancakes is her favorite breakfast

    Break 12 eggs, add 5-6 ounces of butter,whisk butter into the eggs when the eggs are ‘slightly still more moist than you would wish for eating.’ Add flour, carefully peel an apple etc.

    Bluebeard's daughter, Zorro's daughter, Pan's daughter, The daughter of Lupin, Dracula's daughter, ...

    I've always thought that was the lamest thing to do to a character/franchise.

    James Bond's daughter.

    Yep. Lame decision, IMO. Crucify me if you will. Still a lame decision, for a film that started as a runner and ended up...lame.

    But Wolwerine s daughter was great, and Big Daddys daughter was amazing.

    Interesting thread it is.

    James Bond a daughter? No. A son? No. A nephew? No! NO! NOOOO!!

    The more people try to expand on Bond's personal world, bringing in soap opera elements like relatives to worry about, the more we lose the essence of Fleming's creation.

    Let's face it. Bond got married once. And in one of the more dramatic punches of the series said marriage got terminated rather ruthlessly within the hour. It’s as if Fleming tried to tell us that any attempt to push Bond into a somewhat normal life, thriving on the stability of a family bond, is cursed and will only be dealt with in desperate measures.


    How visionary some of our members have been coming up with these ideas...

    I would love that, actually. What I mean is, I would love it if they did and taped themselves while at it and then sent us the video. I'd imagine something like this:

    "Killing off M would be a bad idea, they say. Hm, I'm not so sure.

    Bond should never go undercover as a nun in a convent. Nevah!

    What if Bond had a daughter and a son?

    And they fought each other in the middle of the movie?

    After of course a time jump and a gunbarrel.

    I agree. That's something for the villain to do instead. In fact, in John Gardner’s Never Send Flowers (1993) the villain, David Dragonpol, disguises himself as a nun to carry out one of his five assassinations over the space of a week.

    Oh, and talking of nuns and being undercover:

    Why not? Whoopi Goldberg could do it. Twice! And at least the first one is among my favourite movies ever. Guaranteed to cheer me up when I feel down.

    Time for those Gardner adaptations, EON!

    Yeah, that's what I had in mind. I actually know these films but I've never seen them. I know I will though. They're part of my endless watchlist.
