The Bond Funfacts

I know finti knows the deal about VCR's 😛

The name of Moneypenny's assistant in Octopussy, Penelope Smallbone, came from the real name of one of the dancers in the TSWLM title sequence.

great name 😂

hey, there is someone with that name you know 😛

I'm sorry if I offended her 😛

I hope she forgives you ... I'll get a new one tomorrow 😱

New one 😄
"The things I do for England" originally appeared in Thunderball, was cut out of the final release, but is still present in the original trailer. Later it was used in YOLT.

I love that quote 😍

and that one you know? 😛

Er...it's still in the teaser trailers for OCTOPUSSY...where Bond finishes off a certain Ms Kristina Waybourne...

😉

but who watches the teaser trailers, when you got the movies 😉

I still do. I love watching trailers. Many scenes are shot and used in trailers, but are then cut out from the final film. Either they don't work, give away too much, or they need to save time.

now that's a useful funfact 😄

*runs off to search trailers*

Actually, being the 007 fanboy that I am, I love scouting the trailers for scenes that never made it to the final film...my fav being the one from DAF where Bond does a bit of toe tapping just before he meets Marie...

"Who are you?"
"My names ish bond...James Bond..."
*cue gagging on one's bikini top*
"Shpeak up darling, I can't hear you!!!" 😈

I checked the TND teaser and trailer, no new shots 🙁

as a new "Funfact" ... Tomorrow translated into this weird language called Dutch is "Morgen" ... an imho rubbish paper here is actually called De Morgen or The Tomorrow 😱

There's nothing new in them Brosnan bonds, Y...nothing new! 🙁

denise richards was 😉

Ack...forget about her...bring on Helen Mirren as the next M! 😉

Funfact:
Desmond Llewelyn had been wanting an assistant since 1981 when he was 69. He finally got one in TWINE, which was released in the USA exactally a month before his death.

that last part wasn't exactly fun 🙁
