    Well, it's a pity John Glen didn't do just that!

    Give ME the MGM digital files of the Moore Bond films and a good editing program and I'll improve them all 200%!!

    I'd pay good money to see your revisions!

    I just want to be clear here; I'm FAR from hating the Moore films- they are history and I grew up with them, but LALD & TMWTGG continued the DAF nonsense (in part), TSWLM & MR went all comic book, and Glen's Moore Bond movies, while a great improvement still had little injections of goofy that interfeared with the bouquet.

    Yes, I'm a Moore fan AND a Fleming purist -what's that about?!

    The notorious "PIZZA" effect: Even bad (or, imperfect) Bond is still Bond. :x

    Also, check out Edge of Darkness starring Mel Gibson. It's a wonderfully well-made film.
    Campbell's 2nd Zorro film also rates very highly with me- it's the best Batman film ever made! :)) ;) B-)

    His editing technique was second to none.

    Yes, look at the flabbiness of DAF and LALD, even TMWTGG.

    Pity he buggered off post-OHMSS, though!

    OHMSS was better directed than any that came before it IMO. If he'd done Dalton's movies I'd be in near-eternal Bond Valhalla now.

    Oh, so you plan to digitally replace Moore with Dalton or Craig? :)) Love to see that!

    Thirded.

    I actually liked John Glen. He'd be my second favorite with Terence Young close behind.
