Speaking of Bond: I have bought a ticket to see Craig's latest Bond film No Time to Die, on Tuesday. I will let you know what I think about his performance and the music. 🙂

1) Best Bond Actor: Sean Connery, but I haven't seen Craig. (I missed Casino Royale and I don't care about films not based on Fleming's own work.)
2) Best Bond Movie: toss-up between From Russia With Love and You Only Live Twice.
3) Best Bond movie scene: the final scene of On Her Majesty's Secret Service. Because of what it means for all the rest of the films.
4) Best Bond villain: hmm. Rosa Klebb, I think.
5) Best Bond girl: La Contessa Teresa di Vicenzo. Actually, no. She's a (the only) Bond woman. Best Bond girl, probably Honeychile Rider.
6) Best Bond quote/line: Q: Whose funeral is it? A: Yours.
7) Best Bond theme song: not really a theme song, but I rather like the calypso in Dr. No.

I’m not sure that filtering Bond movies by whether or not they are each based on an “original” Fleming book, would provide the level of segmentation you might be looking for!
