    I never seen any of the new movies, but it's been well established in older ones James Bond served in the British Navy durning WW2

    There's no way any of these newer Bonds could have done that UNLESS the Bond name is a handed down code name.

      The New Bond did not serve in WW2......it was rebooted.

          I just hope its better than Quantum of Solice I thought they kinda dropped the ball on that one. There wasn't a good bad guy. Casino Royale was way better to me. Does anyone have an 8 inch headsculpt for Daniel Craig? i have Connery and Moore. I'm looking for a Dalton too.

            Casino Royale was terrific, but Quantum of Solace was a bit of a slump.

            Hope the next one picks things up a bit. I do like the complexity of Craig's Bond.


            I'd actually love to see a live action Archer movie. If only we could jump in the Delorean and kidnap a young Deidrich Bader to star in it.

              i was surprised there was such much time between films.

              i had trouble with craig at first but recently rewatched quantum of solace and am willing to reconsider.

              i love connery and moore. lazenby was ok but just a blip on the radar.

              i liked dalton

              brosnan did one of my favorites (gldeneye), the worst (die another) and 2 avg ones

                To be honest, I though Lazenby was boring as Bond.

                He really didn't have much of a personality.

                It was like he was just going through the motions without a clue.

                  I liked Quantum. think Craig is a much more action oriented bond and the first one who actually looks like he can kick ***. I look forward to more flicks with him in the role

                      Glad to hear Bond is back.
                      I thought Brosnan just didn't have much "fire" in his performance. Too soft.
                      I liked Dalton, he was very close to Bond in the novels, but the movies were pretty uninspired.
                      I do hope they come up with a better title than the last one. It sounded like a made-for-TV movie about a divorced housewife...

                        The title comes from one of Fleming's collected short stories For your eyes only...which contained From a View to a Kill, For Your Eyes Only, Quantum of Solace, Risico, and The Hildebrand Rarity.

                          I think Craig is more real, like when he gets into a battle he gets cut and when Roger More would fight he never broke a sweat LOL But I still Love Roger Moore Bond

                            There's basically two kinds of Bond fans ... (both are legit fans)

                            1. Fans who want the show as realistic as possible

                            2. Fans who like when it get's slightly unrealistic (to different degrees depending on each fan)

                            Me, i'm a #2 guy

                              I always liked it when Roger Moore was doing the totally unrealistic things and just kinda look over at someone in shock and just give em that classic smile and nod LOL funny stuff, Craig doesn't strike me like that he just seems like a cold blooded killer.

                                Personally, I think it was Austin Powers that did in the camp Bond.

                                Powers basically killed any spy comedy afterwards (see new Get Smart movie)

                                Making Bond "serious" was the only way to keep it going.

                                I do think most people will tire of a serious Bond after a while and the movies will either end or go camp again.
