    Bonjour everyone !

    I've been reading you everyday for quite a long time already, and finally decided to join !
    I'm a french Bond fan since my childhood, when i saw the first Connerys, which seemed already very dark and fascinating to me. And that was the beginning of a long story. I especially love the Bonds of the 60's, the Daltons and the Craigs, and of course the Fleming books. But i also find myself enjoying a lot some of the Moores and Brosnans, from time to time. My first name John naturally pushed me to choose John Bond !

    Welcome here, @JohnBond.

    Now tell me the truth, was it me who fascinated you the most and lured you on board?

    Haha, perhaps yes, one of the reasons of my fascination!

    Hi all, I'm a new member of the forum even if I'm lurking this place from some time. Not sure about how much I will be active (the free time it's always my main obstacle), anyway with the release of Spectre I thought that was the right moment for becoming an user, and so here we come. Also English is not my native language, so sorry for my mistakes.

    I saw all the movies of the series but I still need to read the books, something that I hope to fix very soon. I don't hide anyway that Craig's reboot is my favourite version of the franchise: surely my relative young age has a role in it, but the choice it's overall for the humanization and realism brought in the series through the last works: of course with this I'm far from saying to dislike the rest of the series, just the opposite.

    You people seem to be nice, so I hope to have a good time here!

    Welcome Paul, I'm really looking forward to getting the Spectre edition of TJBA as I haven't got it yet - I'm still wading my way thru books I've bought over the last 5 years :) But I'm looking forward to this immensely. :)

    Unfortunately, I just don't have the time to unleash my inner thoughts on the world - The Charlie Chaplin Archives was published a couple of months ago, TJBA published now, I have PR to do on both. And I have to research/travel for the next couple of months for 7+ other projects. So, a little busy. But I'll visit/comment when I can...

    The Charlie Chaplin Archives look amazing. Any chance of a smaller more affordable version of that book being released in the near future ala TJBA? (Sorry but I'm broke...)

    Good day All,
    I just joined about two weeks ago and forgot to post in this thread. I've been busy enjoying my time here. I am a citizen of the US and have enjoyed the Bond films and books since my youth. When traveling, I attempt to visit places where the movies have been filmed. So far I have been to San Francisco, New York, Las Vegas, Miami, Baltimore, Istanbul, Venice, Lake Como, Murren, Meteora, Moscow and Rome. My wife is from Greece and she is now a converted Bond fan after being with me for years. It is a pleasure to be a member and I look forward to many hours of enjoyment participating in the forum.

    Greetings. I've been reading this forum for a while now and decided it is time to make an account now that I've finished school. I look forward to discussing all things Bond with fellow fans.
