    in What was the profession of Andrew Bond? Comment by 9eor9e November 2012
  • I heard about this a few years ago. I think it's quite unlikely though - although the outfit is like that worn by Fleming in the photograph on set, the guy just doesn't look much like him. Also, the shot of the train roaring past was presumably fi…

    in New members - introduce yourself Comment by 9eor9e November 2012
  • I am always wary about deciding the relative standing of a Bond film when it's just come out - I remember in 2002 when swathes of Bond fans were saying "New ranking: 1. DAD 2. FRWL 3. OHMSS 4. GF etc..". Obviously SF will always be regarded at t…
    in Is Skyfall the best Bond of all time? Comment by 9eor9e November 2012
  • Agent007391 wrote: MartinBond wrote: Shower sex scene - AVTAK. No. It could be a reference to AVTAK, or a reference to the Bond/Vesper scene in CR. Or neither. It put me more in mind of the steam room scene with Pat in TB.
