    Why don't you take the mantel @Soundofthesinners? You'd make a great host. :)

    I'd be glad to, and thank you very much, but before I do, it also occurred to me to list Mallory as the ally in Skyfall instead of Eve. Both are entangled elsewhere (Mallory becomes M, and Eve is a Bond girl). I shall leave it to the judgments of you all.

    How about Kincade for Skyfall?

    Perfect. Kincade it is.

    And with that, the post is up. Go vote, everybody!

    Should we start discussion/voting for next game? Henchmen are going pretty quick.

    We're down to the final three already, so it seems like as good a time as any. I vote for secondary Bond girls.

    Voting will of course have to wait until at least one of our currently played games has finished. ;-)

    I'm still for Title Sequences, but once we get the next game started, I'd like to nominate Gadgets.

    I hate the gadgets.

    Gadgets in general, or just a game built around them?

    I got a new idea for a game this morning which I think would be pretty interesting to do:

    Memorable Deaths (not villains)

    It would be for all allies or Bond Girls which deaths put a mark on Bond and/or the audience. There have been some pretty strong and iconic ones throughout the series. The deaths can be notable not only for the importance or general 'likeableness' of the character, but also for the very nature of the death itself; for example Jill Masterson in goldpaint, Fakkesh's ancounter with Jaws, Bond finding the Body of Paris and so forth...

    Looking through the list of potential games, I see that 'Villain's Deaths' has already been suggested, but I personaly think this angle would be more interesting.

    What do you guys think?

    MR. Corinne
    FYEO. Countess Lisl
    OP. Vijay
    AVTAK. Sir Godfrey Tibbet

    @MayDayDiVicenzo

    Yes that is pretty much the list how I envisioned it, good job :)

    I was thinking of using Adam in LALD. Rosie would qualify as a villain in my view… and nobody misses that stupid bitch anyway… :-P

    Mathis is the most logical choice from Quantum, but I will listen to counter opinions if there are any.

    I actually didn't know who to put from GE and DAD, but both Anna and Moon works fine when you mention it. I think Fekkesh's death is more memorable from Spy, but again, if anyone disagrees, please let me know.

    And of course we'll have Tracy! She's the star of the bunch! And Zukovsky as well.

    Not that we don't already have enough elimination games to go through, but I'd like to nominate "Scenes with Q." Some have certainly been more memorable than others, and we all have our favorite Bond/Q quips, favorite gadget/car reveals, favorite gadgets still being tested, and favorite performers: Desmond Llewelyn, John Cleese, Ben Wishaw...Peter Burton, anybody?

    Naturally, Live & Let Die, Casino Royale, and Quantum of Solace would be excluded.

    You can't just put Red Grant as best henchmen because you assume he would have won!

    I want to see a Main Title Sequence Game.

    You may get to see me voting for a Brosnan film again.

    I'd like finales and main title sequences next. Since we have an open game I'll vote for finales

    I was joking of course! :)) Wondered how long it would be before anyone noticed... ;) We should be allowed to have some fun on the forum ones in a while!

    I'll vote for Best Finales

    By finales are we talking about the climactic action sequence (volcano lair finale, stealth boat finale, etc.) or the very final scene of the film (Bond and Honey on lifeboat, Bond and Pam in pool, etc.)?

    Good point. I had action finale in mind. Both would be good for future games.

    They would. I'd be down for either one next, but I guess we should decide which it is we're voting on.

    I vote for having two games going at once, but one should always involve Bond girls, be it 2nd string, 3rd string, 3rd string and lower, best receptionists/greeters/servers, brief but fetching appearances, femme fatales. The possiblities are endless. Great fun for Bondgirlologists. Helps keep the skills sharp.
    In other words a Bond-girl game and a non-Bond girl game, both always running concurrently. :)
