The James Bond Film Discussion Thread (With Bonus Lazenby!)

[Starkers]

That would be fun doing that ride in a cello case. That secret cinema thing looked fun what did you do?

Technically there was 'game' things for you to solve but for the most part it was just a wonderful vibe, there were bits set up as Madagascar, other bits as the casino and Italy and Miami airport. And then at the end you got to see CR on the big screen. It's weird to think back to that time now as it was just a few months before the pandemic.

It was a great Bond weekend because I did that on the Saturday night, and then on the Sunday I had a ticket for the Bond in Motion exhibition at the London film museum.

Sounds like you had a fun time.


Hey fun game here for everyone.


Which Bond film came out months after you were born?

I was born in 1967 and a few months after that You Only Live Twice came out

 

[Tallguy]

besides having stage shows i wonder if there would be rides

Plenty?

I demand a ski slope ride (where you can choose to ride in a cello case)!

I demand parachutes and space shuttles.

George Lazenby showed that even an Auto Mechanic can be the star of a major motion picture

In answer to your question, LALD came out about 18 months after I was born but DAF’s release is closer in time to my birthday, being about 4 weeks earlier.

 

[Set Harth]

almost the same for me, DAF precedes me by ~2 months, LALD follows by around 16.5

 

[Starkers]

Diamonds are Forever came out around 15 months after I was born, OHMSS came out around 9 months before I was born though (hang on a minute!!!)

 

[Tallguy]

I just realized that thanks to Sir Sean returning for DAF I have been alive for every EON James Bond. (I'm a little older than OHMSS.)

 

[DarrenTR1970]

Looking at release dates, Mom was pregnant with me when OHMSS came out and I would have been about 18 months old when DAF hit the big screen.
My brother would have been 6-7 months when DAF came out.

 

[cooleddie74]

I was born a month before TMWTGG premiered.

Moonraker xD

 

[Commander Troi]

I was born the year between YOLT and OHMSS.

 

[Rowdy Roddy McDowall]

I was......conceived post-THUNDERBALL. Born in 1966. But absolutely no jackals were involved.

 

[SithHappens]

The man who might be our next PM was born shortly after FRWL...interesting

 

[HIjol]

I was 6 years and 3 days old on the US release date of Dr. No…I do not, of course, remember the movie at that time, but I have a distinct memory of how my dad looked in the suit I later learned was intentionally purchased in the style of Bond’s suit!

 

[cooleddie74]

On Her Majesty's Secret Service was released 56 years ago today.
