I didn't mind that. It was considerbaly better placed than DAD and definitely TWINE which is the worst imo. Pierce even said it as if he felt it was so bad he was uncomfotable saying it.
I thought that both the insertion of The World Is Not Enough into the film, as well as the title itself, was fantastic. I love the title because I think it refers to Bond's acknowledgment that there are things more important than the pleasure Electra could have offered him, and I love the way the film featured the line. IMO the worst ever example of a title being inserted into a film was the 'so you lived to die another day' nonsence in DAD.
Back onto topic; I think that Risico would be a great title.
"He’s a man way out there in the blue, riding on a smile and a shoeshine. And when they start not smiling back—that’s an earthquake. and then you get yourself a couple of spots on your hat, and you’re finished. Nobody dast blame this man. A salesman is got to dream, boy. It comes with the territory." Death of a Salesman
Here is another suggestion, perhaps for my religion-themed plot idea: "Deal with the Devil".
-it suggests gambling
-it suggests religion
-It suggest evil doings
-Bond allways deals with the devil(evil), both by confronting it and performing evil (?)deads like killing.
No, a death metal band would fit better! We have several world leading bands in the satanist music genre right here in Norway. It must be the inspiration: cold, dark winters spent watching TV-theatre from Finland. Our satanists are considered to be the real McCoy, they even burn churces and kill each other.
Seriously, I would like to see (hear) Amy Winehouse sing the title song.
Id like to see Risco as a title, it would be very misterious. Also - The Hilderbrand rarity would be a rather intriguing title; it could really mean anything. And anyway we all know that thr next James Bond movie will be marketted as...the next james bond movie. It could be called "James Bond gets ****ed at the pub for 2 and a bit hours" and would still be a hit.
To which, can I add the word Kill? Yes, James Bond is dangerous; don't push it with another Tomorrow Never Dies Another Day With A View To A Licence To Kill type name...
To have my own say, I'd be very happy if the producers kept Gold and Golden out of the title. After gold fingers, eyes, and guns, I think we're running out of useful appendages and weapons. (And didn't Mike Meyers pretty well take the mickey out of gold-based titles in the last Austin Powers flick?)
Yup, no more Kill, Die or Gold (and also Live). What about Forever (after DAF, John Gardner hit that one twice)?

Magic 22 might be a wee bit more fitting, considering ATM it's known as only Bond 22...
Intersting title; I like the way it contains the double-o. Should be easy enough to work it into the script, too.......
Mr. White: "You haven't heard the end of this, Bond!!!!!"
James Bond:, "Oh, wot a load of poo."
It'll look good on billboards, too.
