A lot of Inception reminded me of Leo playing a Bond LARP
My first Bond movie was 'For Your Eyes Only' I loved the underwater battle with the exploration suit as a kid! When I saw 'Never Sat Never Again' my father tried to explain it was just Thunderball but I didn't get it till I was older (5th or 6th grade). First one I saw in theaters was 'A View to a Kill' probably one of my favorite ones. I would rent them from the video store down the street and filled in the gaps at a young age. Discovered the books and even bought the 'Fore Your Eyes Only' Marvel mini-series from 7-11 (a convenient store in my neck of the woods not sure if they're nationwide or not).
I simply love Bond. And even though I am one of the biggest Whovians to walk this God's green Earth, I hate when Whovians infer Bond as a Time Lord I never bought the theory he's a different person and it's a title... I just hate when people can't accept the fact he's just one bad ass MoFo!

007.com has released a new Skyfall production video blog in which costume designer Jany Temime talks about how she worked with Bond star Daniel Craig and fashion designer Tom Ford.
In the latest 007 adventure, Bond's loyalty to M is tested as her past comes back to haunt her. As MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how personal the cost. Directed by Sam Mendes, the action adventure stars Craig, Javier Bardem, Naomie Harris, Bérénice Marlohe, Ralph Fiennes, Albert Finney, Ben Whishaw, Helen McCrory, Ola Rapace and Tonia Sotiropoulou.
In celebration of the 50th Anniversary of James Bond, MGM will be bringing Bond to the fans at this year's San Diego Comic-Con, according to Variety.
The booth will be promoting the 50th Anniversary Blu-ray set of all 22 James Bond films and will feature several props and a different car from the series each day. So if you're a Bond fan at Comic-Con, then this is a booth you're going to want to visit more than once.
The vehicles include the flying Parahawk from "The World Is Not Enough" and the gadget-filled Aston Martin Volante from "The Living Daylights." MGM and Fox are keeping the other cars a surprise for fans. The mine bomb from "GoldenEye," a first-edition hardback book of "Dr. No.," an ax from "A View to a Kill," a Bollinger champagne bottle from "License to Kill," a nerve gas vial from "Moonraker" and a fillet of soul menu from "Live and Let Die" will be among the props displayed.
With two of the four cars confirmed, we can only hope that the other two will be fan favorites over those already announced.
If you're like us and love the old James Bond films for their unapologetic camp and humor, you'll be glad to hear that a fan favorite character, Q, is returning for the newest film Skyfall. The character will now be played by British actor Ben Wishaw.
Producers Michael G. Wilson and Barbara Broccoli commented: “It’s a real thrill to confirm the return of Q in SKYFALL played by the enormously talented, Ben Whishaw. We are delighted to have this beloved character back in the series."
Coming to theaters and IMAX on November 9, the Sam Mendes-directed action adventure stars Daniel Craig, Javier Bardem, Dame Judi Dench, Naomie Harris, Berenice Marlohe, Ralph Fiennes, Albert Finney, Whishaw, Helen McCrory, Ola Rapace and Tonia Sotiropoulou.
In Skyfall, Bond's loyalty to M is tested as her past comes back to haunt her. As MI6 comes under attack, 007 must track down and destroy the threat, no matter how personal the cost.
San Diego's Reuben H. Fleet Science Center was tonight host to a special "IMAX Remix" Comic-Con press event that, following a montage of 65mm footage with a live soundtrack by DJ Glenn Morrison, previewed for the first time anywhere, a brand-new trailer for the upcoming Skyfall. The footage itself will be revealed at IMAX theaters across the country in the weeks to come, but SuperHeroHype was on hand tonight to catch a few of the new plot reveals.
At the start of the trailer, we learn that M (Dame Judi Dench) was responsible for a drive that contains the names and locations of every British Intelligence Agent stationed across the world. That drive has now gone missing.
Following the character's first image reveal yesterday, Ben Wishaw's Q is seen in action. We watch him meeting Daniel Craig's 007 for the first time where Q tells Bond that, with his expertise, he can accomplish more on his laptop in his pajamas in ten minutes than Bond can in the field in an entire year.
There's lots of action scenes, including quite a few shots of Bond fighting someone hand-to-hand on the roof of a train car. Later in the trailer, we see the same car being torn apart (while it's still moving) by a pursuing construction crane.
Of course, there a number of franchise mainstays: we see the classic 007 Walther PPK, the original Aston Martin and we get to hear Craig say, "Bond. James Bond." along with quick flashes of Naomie Harris' new Bond girl, Eve.
Coming to theaters and IMAX on November 9, the Sam Mendes-directed action adventure also stars Javier Bardem, Berenice Marlohe, Ralph Fiennes, Albert Finney, Helen McCrory, Ola Rapace and Tonia Sotiropoulou.
Skyfall is shapping up to be one of the coolest action films this year in the wake of so many guys in tights and capes. Now we've got a few new images from the film (via Kinopoisk.ru) along with an all new video blod about Bond's car, the Aston Martin DB5.
