I myself have recently been downloading lots of ebooks
and am looking forward to reading all the james bond novels.

The publishing industry has, much like the music industry, totally failed to see this coming and adapt properly, despite having a hell of a lot more warning than the music industry.

That they can justify selling an ebook for the same price as a paperback is ludicrous and it's unsurprising that piracy of electronic books is taking off.

OHMSS is a great Bond novel.
Live and Let Die is the best. Film and book.

Incorrect.
The Living Daylights is the best Bond film.

I like Goldeneye.

The best of the Brosnans.

Me too, it's the only one I ever like and that was because it was based on the video game.

"casino royale"
because daniel craig in his black shirt and chinos, or all wet in his tux in the shower and sucking that girl's finger, is such that you literally cannot stay on your seat.

I thought that was a superb film.
And Craig's Bond genuinely is closest to Fleming's as he's a bit of a cunt.

yup
i'd never seen a bond film until CR, but i had read quite a few of the books. they are sooooo much darker than the films. now i've seen a few, some of them are pretty caricature-ish!
( rachelswipe with a fork, Tue 23 Aug 2011, 10:41, Reply)

I liked CR
read a few of the books when I was little, they were pretty hilarious. I was disappointed when I finally watched the film of You Only Live Twice to find it was nothing like the book.

I don't really consider those to be part of the same franchise.
They are all considerably better than the last lot, though. It is true.

Did you aquaplane off your leather sofa and across the room?

Or did they have to pry you off like the suction cups Gavin From Autoglass uses to refit windows?

Shut up.
It's got that woofter in it. And don't give me that 'closest to Fleming's Bond' nonsense either. It's a fucking lie. Dalton's Bond was an attempt to be a bit 'new man' and show his 'emotional side' - a far cry from the callous alkie of the books. And his eyes are weird and he has a terrible bum-chin.

Dalton was awful

*shakes hands*
Total gaylord. I believe he actually starts fucking crying at one point. As did I, at how utterly bent it was.
( Monty Boyce, My cheese game is strong, Tue 23 Aug 2011, 10:40, Reply)

He is even more bent in 'Flash Gordan'

( Naked Ape call me Caitlyn, Tue 23 Aug 2011, 10:45, Reply)

You are both wrong and gay.
I win. The end.
( Kroney, Tue 23 Aug 2011, 10:46, Reply)

Only Peter Duncan is gayer.

You must be fooking joking squire
Timothy Dalton sucks as JB. Fact.

If you can be this wrong on something so simple
then logically you must also be wrong on everything else ever.
( Kroney, Tue 23 Aug 2011, 11:05, Reply)

He's bent - you're bent.
BENT.

( Kroney, Tue 23 Aug 2011, 11:12, Reply)

I heard his favourite Bond was George Lazenby

( Amberl was stripey and dominated Europe, Tue 23 Aug 2011, 11:13, Reply)

I heard it was George Lazelobon

(Bazongaloid, Tue 23 Aug 2011, 11:14, Reply)

Rubbish
From Russia with Love is the best film and book.

Does FRWL have scenes in Harlem? No it does not.

I concede that the 'gyppo camp girl fight scene' is fucking magnificent though

Live and Let Die was my favourite Bond film as a kid
And the book is comfortably the best of those I've read. You Only Live Twice is the best of the films though, just for the gleeful absurdity.
