The Bond Funfacts

I'm Peter Pantsless! I never grow up 😱

Dr No's first name is Julius, from Julius Caesar, cause he was the big boss too 😱

that's such a girlish name 🥷

you better not tell that when you meet those geezers, they're mean fightningmachines 😉

I'm not afraid of them! lookaround

funfact:
When 007 enters Dr. No's dining room he stops to take a second look at a painting. The painting is Goya's picture of the Duke of Wellington, which was stolen in real life week or two before filming began.

they did such a thing once more, when Blofeld talks about a robbery being worth only X million dollars instead of Y, it was a robbery that just took place 😱

why are they doing that 😱

it's a great wink 😄

Imagine that next month, the new Bond comes out and you have Blofeld saying "On second thought, replace The Scream, I don't like it anymore"
that would be SO funny 😄

that would be cool, yea 😄 would it make you lol 😱

funfact:

Halle Berry wears a pink bikini when she comes out of the ocean in a scene reminiscent of Honey Ryder in Dr. No.

I got that from universalexports.net, but HB's bikini is orange 😕

it would make me smile 😉

I too thought it was orange 😖

not good enough 😖

yeah... they are mistaken 😱

Funfact: The guy from "The spy who loved me" that appears dumbfounded when Bond's Lotus drives out of the ocean, the guy from "Moonraker" that spills his drink when he sees Bond's gondola-turned-hovercraft, and the guy from "For you eyes only" that looks shocked when Bond skis on top of his table is ... the same actor!!!

can we sue them? 😱

yeah! TR (I think) even made a thread about that, it's so funny! everywhere he goes, he has a drink and bond drives by 😄

Poor man ... he just can't catch a break on holiday, can he 😛 ?

not when he's in another country no 😛

this one is very funny, yeah there was a thread 😄 called "The Bloke with the Bottle", should be somewhere around here

being the local encyclopedia? 😛

seeing as I'm the only one who remembers stuff 😛

then miss, give ten funfacts 😛

1. The producers once denied a merchandising request for James Bond condoms.

2. The liquor used for Bond films was actually ginger ale, for champagne; watered down coffee, for whiskey; and pure water, for Bond's trademarked vodka martini.

3. Sean Connery was rumored to wear two different hairpieces: one for love scenes and the other for the action scenes.

4. Following Sean Connery's departure from the series, Adam West was strongly considered to be his replacement. West was the original Batman from the 60's TV series.

5. Ian Fleming assigned the rights of each 007 film to a particular family member in his will so everyone in his family could profit from their assigned film.

6. Over 2 billion people have seen a Bond film. That's two-fifth's of the earth's population.

7. Because of Bond's sexual exploits, the Salvation Army once demanded that a shot of 007 putting on protection be included in the movies.

8. Major Boothroyd was a real person who gave Fleming advice on Bond's arsenal of guns.

9. Timothy Dalton was approached to play the part in 1970, but turned down the producers because he was too intimidated to take over from Connery and felt he was too young to play Bond.

10. A lot of innovated, technological advances have been attributed to the 007 phenomenon, like the bulletproof vest, and the disposable one-time use cameras marketed by the major film manufacturers.
