He did get the musical number in theatres. Wasn't a fan of it myself, nor of those moving mountains fighting each other, way too ott for my tastes. Martin Freeman was awesome though, great casting choice!

I don't know what extra material exists I'm kind of disappointed they didn't just follow the book they kept adding prequel crap. I don't know if the Wizards and elfs were doing what the did on screen according to Tolkien (sp) or Peter Jackson . To some fans Jackson is as good as jr Tolkien . The sc...

Just saw the 3rd Hobbit film. Definately the best one. A friend of mine was an extra and actually made it on screen as a man of Laketown defending Dale, so chuffed for him! :D Like the second film I am annoyed with Legolas hogging so much screen time (particularly since he wasn't even in the book). ...

Awesome! It would look great as a novelization cover.

Interesting, ta.

I found a video of the Demo Song John Barry and Julie Rogers did for You Only Live Twice. Does anyone know if an instumental version exists? I really like the music, but not the lyrics. Not quite as polished as Nancy Sinatra's version.

Both great, good finds!

We nearly did have a female Bond, of sorts. That Jinx spinoff had early pre-production work before being mothballed. If they were going to do a Bond girl spinoff, I think Wai-Lin would have been a better choice myself.

If there was a long-running series that had, for example, a black main character, and then suddenly a white actor is considered for the role, not only would I find it just as ridiculous, it would certainly create a lot of controversy. A character's looks and personalities help to distinguish him or...

I'll be interested to see how he goes in The Man from U.N.C.L.E.. I think that will give us a good idea if he is 007 material.

Have you read For Special Services?

Xmen first class has a serious bond vibe. Fessbender had more bond moments in that one movie than Craig in 3 movies I'll second you on that one, he was great in X-Men. That scene in the bank managers office and the one in the pub in Argentina hunting those Nazi's were 100% Bond inside and out. Matt...

If we did end up with a robot, at least we'd have a Bond with more charm and charisma than we do currently...

Genius

Actual lol! They totally would!

That is so awesome! If only...

Update:

Found pics of the whole scene, Oddjob and Jaws are in the background and are the ones who drag Bond away.

I wholeheartedly concur. She is the biggest problem with Bond these days, more so than Craig in my opinion. If it weren't for her we wouldn't have ended up with him anyway.
