I would like to see the new Bond, post-Craig, cast young, age 28-32. A good young actor with the right look and requisite physicality can play the role mature, in the Fleming mode. It's just acting. Good actors find the character and deliver it.…

To King fans , re the Stephen-Owen father-son collaboration, Sleeping Beauties -- this book is picking up. I'm 200 pages into the 700 total now, and it's moving along nicely. I'm feeling it now. It's turned out to be a good brew of horror, mystery,…

ACDC guitar legend Malcolm Young died on the weekend. He was 64. He had been ill for a few years and had already left the band due to illness. He and brother Angus founded the group and ran it. Malcolm played the great heavy guitar riffs on class…

@shamanimal Very good! If you've got 8 copies of LALD anyway, sure,it's not the worst thing to bolster the collection with what do seem to be nicely produced new hardcovers. Personally I won't touch them, simply because I have no interest what…

Reading King&King's Sleeping Beauties. I'm only 150 pages out of 700, into it. I don't like it much. Seems to me the kid wrote it, with the dad chirping in here and there, maybe. It doesn't flow like an SK novel which I usually can't put down…

thought I would add that I watched the famous George Lazenby Baywatch episode the the other day. Laz plays Mitch Buchanan's (Hasselhoff's) former Navy Seal commander. Mitch invites him to Baywatch so he can re-unite with his estranged daughter. Mi…

I think @Revelator has sussed this matter out quite well. Vintage I believe is being disengenuous. They are choosing to present the original sanitized American versions of the books, as something that Fleming himself might have, could have, may…

You guys that are catching these edits are performing a valuable service to the Bond community. We should probably make a detailed list of offending editions so that unsuspecting Bond fans don't waste their $$ buying them.
