Licence To Thrill


A recent review has stated that the greatest James Bond movie of all-time is On Her Majesty's Secret Service from 1969. It is interestingly the only Bond movie played by George Lazenby; a former Australian model who was supposedly a rather surprising and inexperienced choice for Bond. He reportedly refused any further offers to play the role; heeding a director's advice that Bond was a franchise that 'wouldn't last very long'.

So which is your favorite Bond movie? I must say mine is slightly biased and based on the era we grew up in... so mine would be A View T o A Kill starring Roger Moore. To me, Moore is still the best to ever play the character. He just seems to have that suave; cool look that personifies James Bond; if you know what I mean...

I'm also a little 'weird'; in that I seem to factor in the soundtracks of the various Bond movies; as in you would notice only the hottest star of the generation would be given the Bond theme... as seen in Sheena Easton's iconic 'For Your Eyes Only'; 'A View To A Kill' by Duran Duran; 'The Living Daylights' by a-ha; and 'Skyfall' by Adele...
