I've been an MI6 reader since 2000 but only recently started contributing a bit more, so I thought I'd put something in here too.
I'm 34 and originally from Oxford but now living in a beautiful part of Northern Ireland with my wife and two young children. I've been a Bond fan for as long as I can remember, it's one of the only constants in my life and I'm unashamedly passionate about the whole series, both on a personal enjoyment level and regarding its place in cinema history and British culture. Having been too busy with 'real life' to rewatch many of the films until recently, a few weeks ago I started watching the whole Bond series again from the start (whenever time permits). I've rediscovered so many lovely moments I'd not actually seen for many years, it has only reignited my enthusiasm for talking about the films with people who share this appreciation.
Away from Bond, I've represented the UK at the World Scrabble Championships in the past and I contribute the weekly Scrabble puzzle to a major UK broadsheet newspaper. I also won a series of 'Countdown' a few years ago, with which I still manage to impress old ladies with an average age of 84.
I started up the 'Bond film cross-table' thread a couple of weeks ago and it's proving to be an interesting collaborative project, so do have a look if you get the chance.
We always are on the look out for intelligent posters on here.
Always great to have a fellow Bond fan to discuss with. Enjoy.
Yes I did post there once in a blue moon. Surprised anyone remembers!
Us oldies have long memories.
;)
Nice to have you back. Looks like you've started settling in as many do. Hope you enjoy your time here, and share all those years of Bondian knowledge with us.
When asked to list best to worst or vise verse, I always decline. To me, each movie has its own unique way of portraying 007 and his villains no matter how far fetched it may be. Also understanding the time setting which the movies were made and the audiences film makers are trying to reach out to being able to accept that allows me to accept each movie.
Anyway, nice to be here and see you around.
And a hearty welcome to you, too - I see you are already participating fully, @Tokoloshe. :) So nice to have you here! I also read MI6 for years before joining the forum. But I'm glad I did; it's fun and a good place to hang out.
to MI6 Community.
Another fan, good to see. :)
Some folks sure got a strange idea of entertainment, right?
For goverment minions, this is the place to be! ;-)
And a hearty welcome to @BANG (times 5) and @Dravenslade1 as well!
