My first Bond film which I saw on TV was DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER.
My first exposure to any Bond item period was an LP record for YOU ONLY LIVE TWICE inside a Drug Fair. I was such a ''green'' kid then I assumed ''Sean Connery'' was pronounced ''Seen Connery.''

I was thinking the other day about what will happen when the property goes into public ownership. My bet is that the studio who have so far made horror versions of Steamboat Willie, Winnie the Pooh and Popeye are already planning a slasher Bond movie, with some sort of Licence to Kill…and Kill-style title.

There will be "rides". But adults only.
The first Bond film I remember seeing on TV was Moonraker, probably as a network movie of the week.
My dream Bond project would be TV adaptations of the original novels done as period pieces, and very authentic to the Fleming books. The novels are all fairly short, so they could do each one as, maybe 5 - 8 hour-long episodes (depending on the length of the book) and they could do the short stories as standalone episodes.
But Amazon's lawyers will probably find a way to make sure that never happens. Unfortunately
Loved that video game sequence as a kid. Now it's one of the only good things about that film.
November '81. (I memorized the TV Guide listings at the time.) Back then ABC had the monopoly (after HBO airings ran their course), and they'd usually run them monthly, out-of-sequence. Back then, they always warned ''Parental discretion advised.''
That was the era when most hits were on broadcast TV 2-3 years after the theatrical release. For unknown reasons ALIEN took five whole years to debut on ABC, but ratings were low enough that the networks decided to run more original movies over time.
Perhaps if Roger Moore as 007 had assisted the crew of the Nostromo, they all just might have surv......
Naaah. But if CONNERY had, he'd be snogging Ripley for sure at the conclusion. After saying to her ''I thought he's NEVER leave.''
As for John Hurt, he'd comment ''At least he got something off his chest.''

So James Bond then?
Even "AIDS Era and Safe Sex" Bond got laid more than most other men.
They're going to have to make sure they touch nothing from the films
I think QoS and NTTD are the least he shags? One woman in each.
Yeah, no gun barrel opening, no Monty Norman theme. But, while NSNA may not be a great film, it showed that you can nonetheless make a Bond film without them.
